Exceptional and individualized service who were consistently there to support us in our planning
5/5

When selecting a tour operator for climbing Mount Kenya, I appreciated Oakland's clear and timely communication. I planned the trip to Kenya without an agent, so I worked with many different companies to plan our stay. I can confidently say that Oakland had the best communication, answering many of my questions in the months leading to the tour.

For the trek in Mount Kenya itself, the guide, cook, porter, and driver all were highly experienced, detail oriented, and adaptive to our needs. We had a lot of fun on our trek with them and always felt safe. And the food was delicious. Consider booking your travel with Oakland, they are a trustworthy company.

The most honest and best tour operator
5/5

Oakland tour and safaris team made our dream destination more beautiful than what we have imagined.
Our tour gudie and driver Boni Boni was amazing in his spotting skills and also very knowledgeable abt kenya, with him we were lucky to spot all the big 5, cheetah and great migration, it was unbelievable for us, our 8 year old son enjoyed his company overall we will never forget this trip and planning to visit again.
Thanks to Oakland team they helped a lot to tailor made our trip, they helped us in each and every step of our trip.

I would recommend them to all my family friends.

5/5

We chose Oakland among 10 other local agencies we received offers from when organizing out safari trip to Kenya. Why we chose them? First of all, they seemed most opened towards communication and answering to all of our requests. We got all we wanted and the staff was very friendly and open. The driver that was provided to us was experienced and very funny. We had a great time with him and he tried to offer us the best game drive (considering the 2 days we had at disposal). The accomodation that the agency suggested to have was top, from room facilities to superb food and friendly staff. We highly recommend Oakland Safari tours for their openess and professionalism.

We loved the driver because he was very friendly and kind. He stopped all the time during the game drives while we wanted to spot the animals. He did not have a bad behaviour at all. I would recommend him to anyone.

Very professional and efficient
5/5

From the first contact Felistus was always helpful and efficient. She always answered quickly despite the time difference. Everything was very well organized with good value for money. The trip went exactly as described. We did the 8-day itinerary to Amboseli, Naivasha, Nakuru and Masai Mara. Our guide and driver, Henry, was always on time, helpful, and with his explanations he made our experience perfect. All my expectations were exceeded. It is a very serious travel agency.

Incredible service and overall experience!
5/5

Oakland Tour made our trip prefect. Since the begging the communication with Felistus was very clear and she was amazingly kind, took very good care of our itinerary and answered every question we had. Once in Kenya our driver, Henry, was very a experienced guide that made our game drive experiences unforgettable. He was also kind and patient, making the trip a once in a lifetime experience.
We received everything we were promised and more. The Oakland costumer care is gold! Thank you for the reliability and the amazing time you made happen for us. Would definitely recommend and make other itineraries with them.
