Knowledgeable Helpful first class service and safe hands.
My cousin and I were both celebrating our 60th and retirement with a safari holiday. We had limited knowledge on how to go about booking and originally requested a quote from a well known British travel agent which turned out to be extortionately expensive so I looked at African tour companies. after research on prices and reviews I settled on Tekko Tours. They had excellent reviews on various sites.
My tour representative was Carol and I can't praise her enough, she practically planed my whole trip singlehanded she listened to my brief of what I expected from my holiday and gave options, she organised flights and answered all questions no matter how idiotic some questions were.
Thanks to Carol and Tekko Tours I had an amazing safari holiday and I'd highly recommend this company to anyone who requires the high level of customer service that we received.
Special thanks to Carol our tour consultant.

Amazing
Tekko Tours and Travel were exceptional. My husband and I decided to go with them for our honeymoon and we couldn’t be happier. They were extremely professional, and our tour guide Patrick was amazing.

Fantastic experience from top to bottom
We had a wonderful experience with Tekko Tours from start to finish. Communication in advance was very quick and thorough and they were very accommodating to our needs. Their detailed itinerary was exactly what we wanted and the price was very reasonable. Our amazing driver and guide Kennedy picked us on time and everything went smoothly from there. I had been on several safaris years ago and none were nearly as good. Kennedy seemed to have a knack from spotting wildlife and getting us close enough to take incredible photos. His detailed knowledge of various species and migration patterns was a bonus. He also helped teach my kids Swahili on the long drives. I HIGHLY recommend Tekko Tours.

Very Genuine & extermely informative guide / driver
Tekko Tours is a very genuine tour operators. They provided crystal clear trip itinerary & there were no discrepancies or hidden surprises which we experienced during our trip. Risper from Tekko Tour was absolutely a delight to work with & she provide immense amount of information enabling us to plan this wonderful trip. Our guide & driver Stephen has plethora of knowledge about the native flora & fauna , besides that he is a wonderful person at heart, true gentleman. He is a naturalist at heart & has tremendous knowledge about each tree & bird in region. We had a wonderful experience travelling with him & saw all the big fives during our trip to Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru & Lake Navasa. They gave us a 4 x 4 Landcrusier which was slightly old & seats coukd have been better but worked well for us. Overall will rate it as 5 star as we had a fabulous experience thanks to Risper & Stephen from Tekko Tours.

Trip of a Lifetime to Kenya
Excellent week long safari in Kenya. We absolutely loved our guide Steve. We did Amboseli National Park, Lake Nakuru & Masai Mara. We enjoyed Amboseli and Masai Mara the most. I will say there is a lot of driving - some days we were in the car for 8 hours or so driving from one park to another. If you're able to fly from park to park, it may make the trip more enjoyable. We saw tons of wildlife including lions, giraffes, zebra, wildebeest, cheetahs & cubs, elephants, birds, crocodiles, hippos, eland, & more. I highly recommend this trip of a lifetime.

The best company with the best service!!!
The easiest and most affordable way to book a Safari specially when living Thousand miles away. As a solo women traveling alone, the company was able to help me book and answer every single question that I had. They were always available for any questions and the service was acceptable. My tour guide has been working for 16 years and was very knowledgeable on every animal he saw. lodging was absolutely beautiful.. as far as food ( I wish they had more of a variety, but that's part of the adventure).... overall great company, reliable, punctual and will deliver exactly what they say. They took very good care of me from the moment they picked me up from the moment they took me to my next destination.

Excellent tour operator
I asked for an itinerary of a 11 days private tour to Amboseli, Aberdare, Samburu and Nakuru, with one night in Nairobi for the mandatory COVID test two days before flight.
Tekko's Carol was very quick in responding to my enquiries and to the point. Of the five companies that I sent quote request to, the price was the most reasonable, and choice of accommodation was very good.
The driver/guide assigned to me was Jackson. He was very patient and careful, listening to all my requests regarding vehicle positioning during game drives (as a photographer, I am very fussy about where the vehicle needs to be parked)
All in all, I had a wonderful time in Kenya and managed to get great shots.
Tekko Tours comes highly recommended

Flawless
I cannot recommend Tekko Tours enough. We had an incredible two week trip all booked through Carol at Tekko and everything went off without a hitch! We hiked Kilimanjaro, went to Ngorongoro Crater, Serengeti, Masai Mara, Lake Nukuru, and Ol Pejeta Conservancy and had amazing guides throughout- Wines (Kilimanjaro), Medy (Tanzania Safari), and William (Kenya Safari). Even in the times of COVID, we didn't have to think of anything while on our trip - we were simply able to enjoy and the Tekko team took care of everything. Highly recommend!
