Very professional and well organized
We had a great experience with Tekko tours in Kenya for our 6-day trip to Amboseli, lake Nakuru and Masai Mara. Everything was well organized by Carol. Our driver Ken was great, really went above and beyond to provide wonderful experience for our family. Definitely recommend using them for Kenya safari trip!

Tekko Tours provided an absolutely incredible and unforgettable Kenya + Zanzibar tour experience, w
I recently had the pleasure of going on the Kenya + Zanzibar tour with Tekko Tours, and I must say, it was an absolutely incredible experience from start to finish. The tour organizer, Risper, and our driver, James, went above and beyond to ensure that every aspect of the trip was perfect. I cannot speak highly enough of their professionalism, knowledge, and genuine care for our enjoyment.
From the moment we started our trip in Nairobi, James greeted us with a warm smile and made us feel at ease. His expertise as a driver and his deep understanding of the local areas we visited were truly remarkable. James provided us with detailed safari briefings, ensuring we were well-prepared for our adventure in Lake Nakuru. His passion for wildlife and the environment was evident as he shared fascinating insights about the rhinos, giraffes, and other incredible animals we encountered during our game drives. James's skillful driving through the Maasai Mara Game Reserve made our experience even more thrilling. His ability to spot wildlife and position our vehicle for the best views was outstanding.
Risper, the tour organizer, deserves special recognition for her exceptional planning and attention to detail. Every step of the itinerary was perfectly organized, allowing us to maximize our time and immerse ourselves in the beauty of Kenya and Zanzibar. Risper's recommendations for accommodation were spot-on. The Cliff, Entim Camp, and Melia Zanzibar were all exquisite choices, providing us with comfortable and luxurious stays. Risper's suggestion to visit the Maasai village was a true highlight of the trip. Interacting with the locals and experiencing their culture and dance was an unforgettable and enriching experience.
The itinerary itself was well-balanced, offering a mix of breathtaking natural landscapes, thrilling wildlife encounters, and cultural exploration. From the scenic views of the Great Rift Valley to the full-day game drives in Maasai Mara, each day brought new adventures and unforgettable moments.
Throughout the tour, the meals provided were delicious and satisfying. Whether it was the breakfast at the camps or the picnic lunchboxes during our game drives, the food was always fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The all-inclusive option at Melia Zanzibar Resort ensured that we never went hungry and could indulge in a variety of culinary delights.
Overall, I can confidently say that the Kenya + Zanzibar tour with Tekko Tours exceeded all my expectations. James's exceptional driving skills, Risper's meticulous planning, and the well-thought-out itinerary combined to create a truly remarkable experience. I highly recommend this tour company to anyone seeking a memorable and immersive travel experience. Thank you, Tekko Tours, for an unforgettable journey that will forever hold a special place in my heart!!

We experienced spectacular scenery, comfortable lodging, and the most gracious people.
We recently celebrated our 25th anniversary with an amazing safari to Kenya. We received a very prompt reply from Maggie to our inquiry for information about possible destinations/prices. She responded to all our requests for information in the same quick and courteous manner via email. She planned our trip with detail and every place we stayed knew that it was our anniversary and provided us special treats. Jackson was our tour guide and we could not have asked for anyone better. He was very knowledgeable and answered all of our questions. He was patient and and had good humor. We felt very safe with him wherever we were. We found the lodging at the Fairmount Mt. Kenya Safari Club to be the most luxurious. The scenery and staff of the Sun Africa Keekorok Lodge were wonderful. A highlight of our trip was visiting the Masai village just outside of the Masai Mara national park. We hope to return to Kenya and will definitely book through Maggie and ask for Jackson to be our guide. We had a wonderful experience thanks to Tekko Tours.
