Reliable service, fun and adventure
5/5

Before booking, I had no idea what I would get. I found Lucy online and I just went with the flow. Well, I had a really life experience to be honest. The safari was great and the people I met were awesome, we had a blust! So much fun, I will never forget it. Thank you so much Lucy! Kenya is an amazing country!!

Amazing experience.
5/5

We're just back from an amazing 3 day safari in the Masai Mara. Lucy was brilliant, everything from the professional quote she issued, to her timely responses to my questions. She explained everything so well and made the booking so easy. Our driver was Anthony, who is an exceptionally experienced and skilled driver. After a huge thunderstorm with extremely heavy rain he was able to get us to waterlogged parts of the park that other drivers could not, even stopping along the way to rescue another vehicle from the mud. He made it his priority that we saw all the animals and his sharp eyes ensured that we did.
We stayed in Jambo Mara Lodge which was perfect. The glass lodges are exactly like in the photos!
We had an amazing experience and I would not hesitate in recommending Savannah Woods Safaris.

Perfect
5/5

I would like to thank Alvin who was our guide for 3 days in the Masai Mara. He managed to pass on his passion for the savannah to us in such a short time. Alvin was helpful and always listened to us. He was flexible on pick-up times. ultimately alvin is a funny and passionate person. I loved spending this stay with him. I recommend it. The Savannah Woods company was also impeccable. All my questions were answered and everything was organized perfectly.

Professional, responsive and considerate
5/5

I had a fantastic Safari in Masai Mara thanks to Lucy and the team. Lucy was extremely professional, responsive and considerate. Moreover, Lucy went extra miles to help answer and plan my time in Nairobi, even thought I booked only the Masai Mara activities. Our game drive to Masai Mara was very friendly and knowledgeable, through whom we learnt a lot about Kenya and Masai Mara. Last but not least, the Safari quote was detailed, straightforward and its pricing was fair (in my point of view) and transparent. I highly recommend Savannah Woods Safari if you’re new to Kenya and/or Safari.

Perfect experience!
5/5

Everything went perfect with Savannah Woods Safaris. The communication upfront with Lucy gave you a good and safe feeling about traveling to Africa for the first time. Going on safari with the best guide and National park expert Patrick was simply stunning. We saw every animal we wanted to see and upclose enough to get a glimpse of these amazing creatures. Patrick was very knowledgeable, he shared with us useful information in regards to the animals and the parkin general. The safari was satisfying as we couldn't ask for more. Thank you Savannah Woods Safaris for a perfectly executed trip.

Best Safari!
5/5

I was in Nairobi for a short visit and I decided to do the morning safari at the Nairobi National Park because I've heard great things about it. This was my first time going for a safari and I have to say, I wasn't disappointed. The landscapes were stunning, the animals were spectacular. We were able to see zebras, lions, giraffes, and even the very rare animal rhino. It was absolutely wonderful. Our guide Mark was smart, funny, very knowledgeable and polite. The experience was so wonderful that I recommended a friend for the same tour. He travelled the following weekend and also enjoyed the experience. Thank you Savannah Woods Safaris for this wonderful experience, one that I will always remember.

Savannah Woods Safaris went above and beyond. We had an EXCELLENT experience at the Maasai Mara Game Reserve thanks to a well planned an organized schedule. Choosing Savannah Woods Safaris as our preferred travel agency for the trip was a worthwhile decision. We will definitely be coming back for future bookings and of course share our experience(s) with our network. Keep up the GREAT job.

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!!!
