VERY HELPFUL AND ALWAYS THERE 24/7
5/5

Savannah Woods Safari is AMAZING. Please go ahead and book with them. I have contacted several tour operators in Kenya and they are very slow to respond, especially with last minute bookings.

But Lucy from Savannah Woods Safari helped me a lot for my last minute Safari bookong and was always ready to respond within minutes 24/7.

Her and Josphat's team are excellent guides (Especially RICHARD Please look for him as your guide). They make sure you see all the Big 5 within a day and just a stone's throw away.

Their prices are very reasonable too.

I have been to several safaris in South Africa, Botswana, Namibia, Zimbabwe and I have to say that Masai Mara Kenya is the best! You don't need to spend days finding lions, etc. In fact all Big 5 (and ugly 5) are abundant in Kenya.

Suffice to say, none of this amazing trip in Kenya would have happened if it weren't for Lucy and Josphat, and Richard at Savannah Woods Safari.

Highly recommended!

5/5

Lucy was our contact to book our trip and she always responded to our enquiries. The tour delivered everything we expected. Jack, our driver and guide was excellent and we saw so many animals close up. He put in extra effort to show us animals in far off locations and to extend our visit to the park. Well done!

Okay, but
3/5

The safari experience was incredible, we were able to see the animals up close, we just didn't see the rhinos, but we saw many other animals.

Positive points: water was provided during the safari, driver/guide was very friendly

Negative points: in our jeep with 8 people we were in 4 different hotels, which delayed the start of the tour on the 2nd day, during the tour we were given little information about the animals, a 3-day tour that is only worth it for the second day, the rest of the days are long trips on very damaged roads, although this is not the fault of the company that organizes the tour, however, the jeep could be more comfortable, the semi-reclining seats could not be adjusted, in short the jeep was very worn and not very comfortable

A unique Safari
5/5

I would like to invite the tourists all around the world to go on Safari with them. They are well organized, the service is pretty good and I can say it is not expensive for what they are offering. As a tourist, I would like to come back because they are reliable and they didn't try to scam us.

The communication and guidance I received from Savannah Woods was next level. Lucy should be your first contact - she knows the ins and outs of safari and can customize what you need. My only regret is not having her handle additional parts of my travel to Kenya.

Detailed, dependable and quick to answer
5/5

We had a great experience with Savannah Woods Safaris from start to finish. Lucy provided us with a detailed tour package for 2 different trips: an overnight safari in Amboseli National Park and a day trip to Hell's Gate, Naivasha Lake and Crescent Island. She was very easy to work with and answered all of our questions quickly. Our tour guide/driver Anthony was right on time, polite and just plain nice. He was a safe driver and was informative about the park and animal facts. On our safari we watched a pride of lions eating a buffalo and we returned the next day to see the progress of the feast. There were many "extras" that Anthony threw in for us , going above and beyond in order to give us a wonderful time. Prices with Savannah Woods Safaris were comparable to other agencies that did not provide the same service or information.

Good price, great service!
5/5

With a friend of mine we booked 4 days sadari in Massai Mara, Nakuru and Naivasha lake. Lucy was so helpful from beginning. Our tour guide Evans was so patience and knowledgeable, his car was so comfortable and clean. What I also really liked is that he was approaching animals in a animal friendly way that I appreciate a lot. I recommend them to three other friends they all were also so happy and satisfied with the tours with lots of fun memories.
They can provide all sort of tours with whatever budget you have as well. Using local community guides which is also so valuable for me.
I had also one day tour to Wasini island and dolphine watching with Ali a member of the Wasini village. They made our day amazing and memorable. The dive master was so experienced, I got scared in the beginning and if it wasn't for him helping me calm down I would've skipped the dive. I had amazing trip in Kenya with this great team and I would highly recommend them. :)

Very professional and reliable tour operator- totally recommended!
5/5

We were a bit skeptical to book a safari from the internet in Kenya with full prepayment before the safari, but since day 1 Lucy was very responsive and easy to contact with. She promptly answered all the questions and provided so many options. She was also very helpful in everything we could ask and ensured that our safari trip was smooth and enjoyable. She even checked up on us during the trip- which was greatly appreciated!
Our driver/guide, Charles, made our safari trip unforgettable. He knew exactly where to spot the animals and also he shared so much valuable info for them. He knew very well the Masai Mara park and we overall had an unforgettable experience! Thank you Savannah Woods for making our trip special!!!

5/5

I was very skeptical to book a safari from the internet in Kenya with full prepayment before the safari, but from the momemnt I have spoken with Lucy from Savvanah Woods I was so confident that everything will be fine. She promptly answered all the questions and provided so many options. Our driver Henri made our trip to Safari unforgettable. He knew exactly every spot and always tried to take the best spots for us to see the animals as close as we could. He knows a lot about animal, with the sense of humor and a very nice person who loves what he is doing. We had to visit one place close to safari which was not planned before and he gladly took us there. Thank you Savannah Woods for making our trip so special!!!

Safe, Affordable, Absolutely amazing experience
5/5

Honestly, it was my first time in Africa, and I was very anxious about how to choose from all the safari tours available. However, they maintained great communication with quick responses right up until the day of the tour. The driver, hotel, and food were all excellent, and the care after the tour was wonderful as well. I absolutely want to join a safari tour with this company again. Thank you for an amazing experience! I highly recommend them.
Thanks a lot🫶🏻🫶🏻❤️‍🔥
