Fabulous Trip!
We absolutely loved our trip with Okoa Africa Tours! Our tour guide was great, the camp was nicer than we expected, and the Maasai Village was a really nice touch to finish off the trip.

Cool Safari experience in Tanzania!
Experience with Okoa africa tours was Great, would just wish a bit more help with a choice of the tour beforehand. It is very important to choose the right spots at the right times because of animals migration and weather condition. The communication was from the beginning flawless.
We visited central and southern part of Serengeti during migration, Ngorogoro crater (the best!) and lake Manyara and stayed 3 nights. After seeing it I would next time exchange lake Manyara for Tarangire NP for the variety of animals, but also like this it was great as all 3 NPs offer you very different view on the nature (savannah, tropical forest, lakes, crater).
Our guide Halifa was absolutely amazing and knew so much about all the animals and plants and was very flexible regarding our plans and answering all our curious questions. We did the camping tour so we also had our Chef Sokofo always with us and he was just the best! Did not expect having such great food in the middle of nature. Campsites were all very clean and enjoyable, but be prepared to sleep surrounded by animals (not dangerous, just a strange feeling when a buffalo feeds himself with a grass right around your tent.
The price is very appropriate for the experience you get, it was just stunning!

Amazing safari experiences in Kenya & Tanzania
Communication was excellent! Mark made sure he answers to all our questions - before, during and after the trip. He explained very well on the details so we could get our expectations right. We had quite a short time in Africa but wanted to do both Kenya and Tanzania Safari and Mark got that arranged very well. The safari will not disappoint you. Thanks to our drivers Richard (Kenya) and Saleh (Tanzania) we got to see all the big 5 plus some other animals we've never seen before! They were both very experienced and they can kinda predict where the animals will be. Our chef Buga also is a very good cook! Accommodations were all as expected. Our only complaint/confusion was when suddenly there was another tourist transferred into our van in Kenya on our 2nd day (not as scheduled) so the van was a bit cramped for the next 3 days. But other than that everything else was great!

Amazing Safari Tour Experience
People working at Okoa are so nice and everything is made to be sure you are always happy.
Our driver Mansour was incredible. He knows everything about animals, about the parc, history, cultural things and so on. He made sure that we were able to see all the big 5 animals. Also, he was very accommodating when needed.
All the eco camps we stayed at were very nice and we met a lot of very nice people.
I definitely recommend Okoa Africa Tours for people who want to live an amazing safari experience !

Great Safari, average tour
We had a great safari full day (6am-6pm) and saw everything we could have hoped. The accomodation was great, with helpful friendly staff and delicious food. However, it's more of a full safari day than a 3 days tour. Day 1 only includes an hour drive, and day 3 is merely getting back to Nairobi, which, unfortunately, happened in a small taxi and not in the original van as some other members of our group moved on to their next location. An overall good experience.

Best Safari ever
Safari with Okoa Africa Tours:
We were 3 nights and 4 days with Chef (which means chef) Vitalis and the driver Alifa on the way and it could not have been better, they have a special praise. The smooth email contact in advance was also good.
The only downside, you have to pay the rest of the paid safari in dollars in cash in the office, which led to fees of 45 dollars, because we have no dollar currency in Germany, had to be exchanged in Tazania, which was very awkward on the bank.

Great safari in Masai Mara, Nakuru and Amboseli
We did the 6 days Masai Mara, Nakuru and Amboseli Safari. Okoa Africa Tours is a reliable tour operator. The safari was exactly as written in the itinary. The budget tent camps are clean and comfortable. Our driver Gibson was great, he really did his best to show us everything (and we did).

Skilled staff..highly recommend!
I had an amazing 3-day Maasai Mara safari tour with Okoa Africa Tours.
Mark is very quick in response and has a great personality. We joined the tour from Narok but kindly instructed us on which bus to take to Narok and sent us a plan of the tour with detailed explanation of the animals found.
Also the driver, Kennedy, is highly experienced professional and entertaining. He knows the best time and place to watch sunrise and sunset, which are also the highlights of the tour beside animals.
Skilled staff and amazing tour...I would highly recommend!

I needed something arranged for me in a hurry, like just two hours or so. These guys organized a really nice hotel, a day tour and drive back to Nairobi. They are just want I needed. Mark their agent was great.

Good basis safari tour, with good driver.
Communication was good, service also. The camping site was very basic, busy and noisy by night. Food was basic but okay. The safari tour itself was what we've expected. Sometimes it bothered us that other drivers really drove to close to the animals and disturbed nature. This isn't a good thing! Our driver knew that, and he didn't drove like that. Overall the trip was nice for what we've payed!
