Attended their 4 day tour to Masai Mara and Lake Nakuru and saw all the BIG FIVE!
4/5

As a solo traveller I was impressed by the personal greeting service offered by Okoa. When I arrived at 4am in Nairobi I had a guide meeting me at the coach station. Likewise the guide dropped me off at the coach station in Nakuru so I could take the return coach to Kakamega where I worked as an NGO volunteer.
The accommodation in Masai Mara was basic and they did not cater well for vegetarians. However, the hotel Waterbuck in Nakuru did - indeed well beyond my expectations after my experience in the Masai Masa.
The safaris themselves were excellent! The guide friendly and approachable. We saw all the big fives in Masai Mara and he even took us our an early morning ride, which was not part of the tour!
Lake Nakuru was a little bit disappointing as many birds were gone but part of the countryside was stunning and the hotel great. Overall I great 4 day tour and I would recommend the touring company to my friends!

Nice safari but dishonest company
4/5

We had a very nice 3 days 2 nights safari in the Masai mara. Our guide Richard was the best driver and we managed to see a lot of animals. But Okoa asked me to pay enormous Bank fees and when I arrived they still asked for more money even though I paid more than what I was supposed to. I wanted to go so I paid but I really feel cheated.

Safari Maasai Mara + Lake Nakuru
4/5

The communication by email was very good. They came to pick us up at the hotel 45 minutes late without notifying us, but fortunately they arrived. The Safari was wonderful. Our driver Jackson was really good and very helpful. The eco camp had basic services, but we knew it.

Great people, value for money, need to be organized
4/5

Overall great, well informed. Intra-destination travel was too much as compared to the safari because of organization.

Great trip... great price
4/5

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 budget tour
4/5

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!
