Poor communication, insufficient team spirit
We agreed on a 5-day safari package with Osnet. Our communication was very good beforehand and I had recommended it to many of my friends.
Although the tour started well, problems came one after another during the trip.
On the 2nd day, the Giraffe Center visit did not take place due to lack of communication between Geofrey and the guide. Although dinner was included in the price, I paid for it. The visit to the Masai village also did not take place again due to communication problems. The plan included a Tsavo West and Taita park tour. Our guide suggested to replace East instead of Tsavo West, and I said OK. Again, due to lack of communication between the guide and Geofrey, I had to pay the extra Tsavo East Park fee and fuel cost.
The hotel was not on our plan before the flight on the last day. I asked Geofrey and thanks to him he arranged. He asked 103$ for it and then said he paid himself for cover his excuse, I think.
In summary:
The communication between the team was very poor. Geofrey accusing them, guide and the driver criticizing him, telling he just sitting at the office.
Why I found myself in the middle of unpleasant arguments for no reason? Why did I pay for Park fees, fuel costs and dinner which should be included in the itinerary? Why we didn’t go to Giraffe Center and Masai Village which was also in the itinerary? I spent an hour to explain situations for Tsavo Parks. Why I had to do it on my vacation ?

Would not recommend
We were very excited for our 9 day private tour across Kenya and Tanzania. We had hand picked the itinerary, accommodation and paid for everything upfront. Geofrey would always reply promptly but as the tour took place there were down falls that should’ve been avoided.
Prior to the tour starting they didn’t book accommodation in time so we had to change some of our options a few times.
Our driver in Tanzania was not experienced in the places we visited and we spent hours of our game drive with him asking for directions to our accommodation.
Accommodation was not booked correctly, we arrived at our accommodation and Osnet had booked elsewhere so we had to drive another 2 hours late at night to get there.
Our vehicle had issues and we missed morning and afternoon game drives.
We had a village tour included but payment wasn't arranged by Osnet so we paid, then Geofrey said we paid too much and they wouldn’t refund us what we paid, only a third of the amount.
One of our lodges overbooked us and Geofrey advised us the day of when he was told. He didn’t accept the downgrade of alternative accommodation but he didn’t follow up to ensure we would have a refund of the difference. Instead when we arrived it was not sorted so we spent the evening arranging the refund on his behalf - I was doing his job.
We had them book a train for us and it was last minute he told us that he booked it too late and the tickets we paid for were sold out so he refunded us the difference.
We didn’t get compensated for an inexperienced driver, the mix up in accommodation from the itinerary, loss of game drives, or the refund we are due from the lodge. Geofrey seems to have blocked my number and we now can’t get hold of them to get the money back.
The highlight was our guide Robert in the Maasai Mara, he was fantastic!!!!

Safari with Osnet Tours amazing experience
Our 14-day safari across 5 of Kenya’s most stunning national parks was an unforgettable adventure, and the organization and execution with Osnet Tours were excellent—exceeding all our expectations. Geoffreys Planning was ecellent and very professional.
A special mention goes to our tour guide, Ken, whose expertise, dedication, and passion made this trip extraordinary. Ken is not only a safe and skilled driver but also possesses an impressive knowledge of wildlife and Kenya’s natural landscapes. His ability to spot animals and share fascinating insights enriched every moment of our journey.
What truly stood out was Ken’s friendly, attentive, and patient nature. Despite our limited English, he always went the extra mile to ensure we understood everything, making us feel comfortable and valued. His commitment to positioning us in the perfect spots for photography allowed us to capture breathtaking images of Kenya’s incredible wildlife.
The accommodations were wonderful—each lodge and camp was beautifully located, comfortable, and provided everything we needed. We were exceptionally well taken care of, and there was never a moment where we felt anything was missing.
This safari was a dream come true, and we would without hesitation choose Ken as our guide again for any future adventure in Kenya. If you’re planning a safari, we highly recommend this experience—it’s a journey you’ll cherish forever!

A highly reliable and professional tour operator that delivers personalised service, thoughtful plan
We recently visited Kenya with Osnet Tours, and the entire experience was fantastic from start to finish.
I was initially in touch with Geoff from the UK, and I was very impressed by how responsive, helpful, and accommodating he was throughout the planning process. I made several revisions to our itinerary, and he patiently took in all our requests and arranged everything perfectly. I had also mentioned that it was my daughter’s birthday during the trip, and Geoff organized a wonderful surprise cake celebration for her with Ashnil. such a thoughtful gesture that made the day extra special.
He also recommended an excellent camp in Masai Mara and booked us into a beautiful beach resort in Diani, both of which we absolutely loved.
John, our driver in Masai Mara, was equally amazing - very engaging, punctual, knowledgeable, and accommodating. He made sure we had the best possible safari experience and took great care in showing us the animals while managing the schedule very well.
Overall, Osnet Tours are incredibly reliable, professional, and genuinely lovely people who provide fantastic service. I would highly recommend them to anyone planning a trip to Kenya!

Great service
Our driver/guide for the safari (Stanley) was amazing! We saw the big 5 on our first day of the tour in the Masai Mara. Really great service, my family and I had an amazing trip.
