soul food
We had the pleasure of working with Joanne from Sunworld Safaris again to plan parts of our recent trip to Kenya, and once again, the experience was exceptional. From the outset, she ensured every detail of our trip was carefully planned and flawlessly executed. We’ve found a truly competent and reliable travel agent with an impressive understanding of what it takes to create a seamless and unforgettable journey.
Joanne was incredibly kind, approachable, and always made us feel heard and valued. No matter how small the question or request, she responded with patience and thorough answers. What really set her apart was her proactive engagement and quick responsiveness. We never had to wait long for a reply, and it was clear she was fully invested in making sure we had the best possible experience.
In addition to managing the logistics also specifically for photographers like us, Joanne offered insightful suggestions that we wouldn’t have thought of on our own, and went above and beyond to make sure we were aware of important considerations. Thanks to her thoughtful planning, we felt prepared and confident as we embarked on our adventure.
We’re also deeply grateful to our guide, Arnold. His passion for wildlife and nature, along with his calm demeanor, was infectious and truly appreciated. We always felt like we were in the hands of an experienced guide who always respected the animals and environment. Arnold’s enthusiasm and attention to detail ensured we never missed a moment of the incredible sights around us.
Thanks to Joanne and Arnold, our stay in Samburu was another unforgettable adventure. Every moment felt special, and knowing how much care went into planning it made it all the more memorable.
Overall, working with Sunworld Safaris made all the difference in our trip. If you’re looking for a travel agency that is passionate, detail-oriented, and truly dedicated to creating a memorable experience, look no further!
Thank you.

exceeding expectations
Sun World Safaris made the safari experience everything we had hoped. We stayed at Little Zebra Camp and just loved the accommodations. The staff (especially Thomas and Daniel) made us feel special and wanted. Ask for Laban as your guide. He was great great. You can not go wrong with him.
The balloon ride and visiting the Masai village was icing on the cake.

Exceptional!
We just returned from an amazing journey through Kenya and had every detail managed by Sunworld Safaris, and in particular, Joseph Kuria. I can't say enough about how professional, prompt, and responsive Joseph was to all our needs and questions. Everything went like clockwork. All aspects were topnotch, all persons involved were very professional, and I highly recommend Sunworld Safaris if you're planning a trip to Africa!

Top-Notch Safari
On a photography tour with friends, we traveled for 2 weeks in Samburu and Masai Mara. Accommodations, food, and service were terrific. More importantly, our guides were exceptional and got us to the right places at the right time for amazing photography. Quality of the guides is the single most important factor in a successful safari, and Sunworld excels at this and has new, well-designed vehicles to match.

Top Notch Safari company
This is our 2nd trip using Sunworld (Sonam and Rebecca). Their attention to detail in all aspects of our safaris has been the best we have ever experienced (my 9th safari). The Sunworld Safari properties are amongst the best in Kenya. They will individually tailor your safari and will provide suggestions to ensure you have the best and most memorable adventure. And as everyone knows, your guide is the most important aspect of any successful safari. Sunworld has the best and most experienced Maasai guides…you will be amazed! We are already planning our 3rd safari with Sunworld….highly recommended!!

Wonderful family tour in Kenya
I traveled with my family of 7 including three young boys (aged 11 to 16) to Kenya in July. It was a wonderful 10 day experience. Sunworld has been very helpful from the get go. I worked with Sonal to develop the program and made numerous changes and request. Sonal was very patient and helpful with prompt responses and useful recommendations, as well as following up as the traveling date approaches.
Our tour guide Felix is cool and amazing. He really knows his work. He worked for 26 years in the sector, and has a unique capability leading us to the most exciting activities during the game drives. He would anticipate the moves of the animals and position the car at the right spot for us to have the best view when things happen. We've had the opportunity to see all the Big Fives including the rare black rhinos, and the beautiful leopard. We also had the front row seat to see the cheetah mom hunting the wildebeest with her 4 young kids (who did nothing to help like my three useless boys)... Felix is the instrumental making the trip so memorable for our group. Also thanks Felix for teaching my son Swahili. My son now sounds he is really from Africa :)
Kudos to the team from Sunworld.
What I would do differently? I would definitely try to book the lodging next time within the park parameter. But hey, it is going to be costly...

TZ: very good choice compared to 3 other companies
We choosed sunworld safaris on recommendation of a friend for a long 13 days safari in north Tanzania.
We had an amazing and wonderful experience thanks to Edwin from 4x4 Adventures / Sunworld Safari. Our guide, JOSEPH MOLLEL is a very efficient, professional massai guide, super nice with a large knowledge about animals, plants, cultures and customs. It was a private vehicle safari, only the two of us and Joseph. He managed very well to adapt to our habits, our aims and wishes. Thanks Joseph for having been so devoted to make our experience so incredible! When we will come back, we will definitely ask for Joseph again and we will recommend him to all our friends.
Compared with the 3 other agencies consulted to organized this trip, 4x4adventure ltd provided an answer/proposal respecting the most my requests and my dates with good choices of places to visit, right lenght of stay in each one and perfect accommodations, once again compared to the other agencies proposal. They were also the most expensive. A posteriori, we made the right choice as all steps of the trip were great and even greater day after day: the agency managed very well with the choice of hotels and lodges. Each one were ranging from great to incredible and the quality was increasing accommodation after accommodation, which is very smart from Edwin, to make sure we could not be disappointed to leave a place for another. Thank you very much and we look forward to be back in Tanzania

The real deal for your Safari experience!!!
Me and my wife had a lovley stay on our honeymoon in Samburo, Masai Mara and Lumo, accompanied by three very professional and care taking Guides. We enjoyed every second of our safaritrip and only regret that time went by so fast. We can only recommend Sunworld Safaris as your no.1 partner for your perfect safari experience.

5 Stars all around
We were 2 female travelers in Kenya (and Africa!) for the very first time!
We had the most incredible time!
From planning with Joseph in the Sunworld office to making changes with Alice during his absence, we felt very well advised and take care of.
Our tour guide Mwashi was the best part about our whole visit! He is incredibly knowledgeable about all the animals, their behavior, the landscape, culture and history of the country!
He made us feel safe at all times, is very professional, caring and a pleasure to be around! He did all the thinking and planning for us, we just needed to enjoy the beauty of the country! We will definitely be back to spend more time with him!
The vehicle was in great shape and we navigated even through some challenging terrains due to recent rains.
One Tipp: Take advantage that Sunworld can pre-book and pay the park entry fees as part of the booking in advance so that there is no hassle at the entrance gates where online payment can be a challenge.
Really a big compliment to the management of this company, all the reviews about the staff here is excellent! We experienced only excellence too, so keep up what you are doing, it is working :-)
Than you so much!
