Great experience, Frank was very supportive, well arranged tour, recommended to some of m friends.
Driver/Guide needs to more talkative, Gems was not that talkative. Although he had lot of experience gor Jungle safaris.

Okoa is reliable touroperator.
Second time safari to Masai Mara game reserve. Communication went smoothly. Me and my daughter did a joining safari. What I like about Okoa is that they are doing everything to comfort you. I chose for Okoa because for me it's important that what I paid for safari, goes directly into Kenian economy for a fair price.
Rates are lower then traveling with the bigger companies, but service is better. So I hope more people choose Okoa for an outstanding experience.

Amazing Safari Experience
My friend and I had a limited time in Nairobi but we were keen to do the Maasai Mara in 2 days. Our driver Geoffrey was absolutely amazing and we were very lucky to be able to see the big 5 in just two drives.
The Maasai Mara was absolutely beautiful, and I would recommend this group for organising it!

Phenomenal experience, magical times
From the moment we first accessed the SafariBookings website and asked for the quotation they promptly replied us with all the information we needed. Since we we're not coming from the airport (but by bus) they offered to pick us up at the station at no fee and dropped us at our hotel, only stopping at the office to hand the payment and check the arrangements for our safari on the next day. They were helpful and friendly at all times and were always communicating with us and informing the next steps.
On the day of the departure to the safari, they picked us up and explained how the logistics would be (given different groups were staying for different amount of days at the safari) and we were placed with two other ladies who would be doing the 3 days-2 nights package (we did the 2 days-1 night). Everything went smoothly on the ride there and the accommodation exceeded our expectations (even though they didn't have hot water in the showers) as well as the meals included (proper breakfasts, lunchs and dinners).
The safari experience was beyond incredible. Our tour guide, Joffrey, did an amazing job and we were so lucky we got to see the BIG 5 and many other animals (the quest to find the Black Rhino was so fun and we were able to spot a leopard which is quite difficult!)! He stayed in touch with other guides through a radio frequency and they would always inform where other animals were placed and you could see he genuinely wanted us to witness all of them (and we would get so so close to the animals!). On our way out e even caught a lioness eating what was left of a Zebra (a raw and wild moment).
We also booked the Giraffe Center and Elephant Orphanage once we were back in Nairobi and despite some difficulties we encountered (regarding time, jam and misscommunication) the experience with the giraffes was lovely (we ended up not going to the Elephants cause the feeding time is between 11-12pm and we missed it so we ended up going to a mall + local market).
You can definitely see they improved from previous feedbacks and reviews they received and the service was spot on. I highly recommend them!
Thank you so much Frank and Joffrey, you made our journey magical!

Great budget tour
I was looking for a 2 day budget safari over a weekend while on a work trip to Kenya and this gave me everything I wanted. Communications in advance were fine, and I was collected from my hotel as expected. Joined a small group, helpful guide/driver Simon and an excellent trip to Masiai Mara. We were lucky enough to see lions, elephants, hippos & a hyena as well as giraffes, zebras, antelope and more.
The only thing I'd say is that the actual tour wasn't run by Okoa because they put me with others to form a viable group size so we didn't actually stay at the camp I expected (stayed at Lenchada instead of Mitimingi) (which is why I've given it 4/5 rather than 5/5). But it was all fine for the price and exactly what I wanted!

Great trip... great price
The communication was excellent- all my questions were answered, before and during the trip. The service was all inclusive- ie transportation, food, bottles of water, tent accommodations, and the evening and morning safari. I even went to the Maasai Village for 1000 extra shillings- worth going! There were some challenges coming back- my friend and I had to come back in two separate vans. Overall it was an awesome trip!

Great people, value for money, need to be organized
Overall great, well informed. Intra-destination travel was too much as compared to the safari because of organization.

It was an amazing experience. Thank you Jayson for saw the big five and for the interesting story!
It was really great experience to visit Masay Mara park and Nakuru lake with this company.
Transfer from airport to hotel was in time. First of all guys from Okoa Africa Tours met us in the airport and transfered to the Okoa Africa Tours office for paying the trip, then they tranfer us to the our hotel.
Tomorrow morning they met us in our hotel and tranferd to the met point for starting the safary trip. By the way, emploeey of Okoa Africa Tours helps me to buy local sim-card.
I whant to tell the big thanks to our guide Jayson for showing the big five! It's amazing, we have also seen two representatives (lions and buffalos) of the big five in the firt day of our trip!
Jayson told us very interesting facts about animals, their habits and lives! He gave us the opportunite to saw animals as close as possible to be safety!
In the Nakury Lake we saw rinos! It's incredible, because I've never seen these animal before this trip.
So the big thanks to Okoa Africa Tours and our guide Jayson for showing us the magic world of safary!
