Awesome safari!
5/5

Savannah Woods Safaris did an amazing job on this one. I had the best trip to Masai mara and happened to spot most of the big five animals with our guide Sam. The meals were awesome and delicious, our chef Peter made sure we had the best meals on the menu. The 4*4 safari jeep was in good condition and comfortable, it tackled the rough terrain with a lot of ease. The cleanliness in the rooms was perfect with room service. The staff were very friendly and social to us. I would highly recommend everyone to book their tours with Savannah Woods Safaris.

Fantastic Adventure thanks to Savannah Woods Safaris
5/5

I contacted Savannah Woods Safaris via email for a quote and within a few hours they responded and we had the trip arranged very swiftly. They are efficient and have great communication.
The whole experience in Masai Mara was fantastic, we were picked up on time at the hotel, the itinerary and the accommodation was first class. Our guide John truly made this experience come to life, his knowledge of the parks and the wildlife, his energy and enthusiasm was top notch, he has a great sense of humor as we conversed. He made the long journey to the Mara from Nairobi worthwhile. I will definitely use Savannah Woods Safaris for my next safari to get the best safari experience.
Kudos to Savannah Woods Safaris!

Great views of Mt. Kilimanjaro at Amboseli park
5/5

This was my first time visiting Kenya on a trip to Amboseli where I stayed at a luxury camp called Kibo courtesy of Savannah Woods Safaris. I absolutely loved Kibo. They have amazing food and very comfortable accommodation. Our game drives were great with Peter as our guide. The weather seemed to work in our favour because we were able to see Mt. Kilimanjaro every single day and the scene was marvelous. The sky at night was also breathtaking and the best I’ve ever seen in Kenya. We visited a Maasai village nearby as well and got to learn more about their culture. I loved the entire experience. It was also the perfect time to spend at the park. I would highly recommend Savannah Woods Safaris for their top notch services.

Enjoyed the safari
5/5

I liked every bit of the safari. It must be one of the best things to do while in Nairobi. There's so much wildlife next to the city, and a real wildlife safari. The afternoon tour we did was amazing, our guide Peter did the best to trace a pride of lions that were feeding their kill at the bush. The city skyscrapers beautify the horizon at the park. Its view is wonderful, don't hesitate to book with Savannah Woods Safaris to get this kind of experience.

Best safari to Masai Mara!
5/5

Lucy from Savannah Woods Safari really helped us plan our itinerary to Masai Mara. The entire 3 days were full of activity much more than we expected. David was an excellent host. He greeted us warmly at the airstrip in Masai Mara. The safari tour started immediately after we arrived, we saw a bunch of animals on the way to our camp. His knowledge of the animals, including identifying all the bird species made the trip memorable. David was prompt and courteous throughout our tour. We recommend taking a safari 4*4 Jeep as it allows you to see all areas of the park with full visibility of the animals because of the pop up rooftop. We would highly recommend Savannah Woods Safaris and David for our next safari.
Robert was very helpful and responsive in developing the plan as well. We had a great time in Kenya and Mara.

Amazing 3 days 2 nights Safari in Mara!
5/5

We had a great time on our safari to Masai Mara. Josephat played a huge role in making sure our safari was well organized and ensured our safety during the whole safari. Our guide John was very professional and answered all our questions in a polite manner. He took us to Mara river during the full day to witness nature at its best as this was the main purpose for visiting. We saw most of the big five; Lions, Buffaloes Leopard and elephants. The wildlife and nature in Masai Mara was amazing. The camp we were booked in was very safe and cozzy. We highly recommend Savannah Woods Safaris for those visiting Kenya as they organize and offer amazing safari packages. Special thanks to Josephat and John.

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.

Well done Savannah Woods Safaris!!
5/5

We were nervous about going through a foreign company, but in the end we were really glad we did. Not only does the money get invested in the country and goes to the people who actually need it, but Safari Update Travels gave us a fantastic experience.

We dealt with Lucy from the office and he was patient and prompt. Our first stop was at Masai Mara where we had a guide, Simon who was excellent and we were sad to see him go when we switched parks. I would definitely recommend Simon.

Savannah Woods Safaris also took care of the little things, like a transfer from the airport to our hotel and then to the restaurant Carnivore - our package also included a prepaid dinner at Carnivore which was a nice surprise to finish off the Safari.

I have no hesitation recommending Savannah Woods Safaris and am working on my parents to use them when they travel to Africa. Well Done!

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.
