An Unforgettable Kenyan Safari Experience with Savannah Sound Safaris
We had a fantastic safari experience with Savannah Sound Safaris, visiting the Maasai Mara, Lake Nakuru and Amboseli. From beginning to end, everything was exceptionally well organised, and we thoroughly enjoyed every moment of our journey.
A special mention goes to our driver and guide, Steve, who was outstanding throughout the trip. He was professional, knowledgeable, friendly and attentive, always making sure we were comfortable, safe and enjoying the experience. His dedication and excellent guiding made a real difference to our safari.
We also appreciated the excellent communication and personal attention from the Savannah Sound Safaris team. It was clear that a lot of thought and care went into making sure everything ran smoothly.
We travelled as a couple, and this safari gave us wonderful memories that we will treasure for years to come.
We highly recommend Savannah Sound Safaris to anyone planning a safari in Kenya. If you are looking for a reliable, professional and caring team, we would certainly recommend them.

Professional with years of experience. Born and raised in Kilimanjaro region .
Atif Gafoor, our safari director at Explorian Safaris, delivered a beautifully organized, deeply personal 2-day private tour through Tarangire and Ngorongoro Crater.
As a true local born and raised in the Kilimanjaro region, Atif leverages over 22 years of elite guiding experience to craft a seamless adventure. His intimate knowledge of the Northern Circuit shines through in his masterful 4x4 driving, flawless timing to dodge heavy tourist traffic, and an uncanny ability to spot hidden wildlife. From navigating Tarangire’s massive elephant herds to descending onto the crater floor, traveling with Atif feels less like a transactional tour and more like an authentic, high-end expedition led by a passionate local expert.

Amazing 3 Day Experience with our Guide Geovanni - Big 5 completed
We booked a Fly In Safari,
Starting at the Serengeti, continue to the Ngorongoro and ending up in Tarangire. Serengeti was for sure the best, a lot of animals and our guide Geovanni always knows where to go to spot them.
The accomondations were also really nice and everybody was extremely friendly and helpful. The last day in Tarangire there was bad weather, but still Geovanni knows where to go to spot at least some wild animals.
All in all, it was an amazing once in a lifetime adventure.

Amazing Safari Experience
We had an absolutely incredible safari experience! All the accommodations and the itinerary were excellent, and a huge part of that was thanks to Polina, who helped us plan and organize the entire trip the way we wanted.
A very special thank you to our amazing guide, Gerald! He was outstanding. We felt completely safe with him, and he was always attentive to our needs and made sure the trip was perfectly adapted to us. He was so kind, friendly, and pleasant to spend time with, making the long hours in the car enjoyable. On top of that, he was incredibly professional and knowledgeable, teaching us so much about the places we visited and the wildlife. Gerald made such a huge difference to our experience, and we are so grateful to him.
Thanks to Polina and Gerald, we had the most incredible trip of our lives.

Good organisation trustfull and reliable
Our safari was simply unforgettable and exceeded all our expectations! We saw an incredible number of animals – even more than we had hoped for. From lions, elephants, giraffes and zebras to many other fascinating animals, we got to experience it all.
The entire organisation was excellent. We were transported reliably and on time from one place to another, and we could always count on everything running smoothly. The accommodations were also very well chosen throughout and made our stay even more special.
A huge thank you to the entire team for the wonderful care, professionalism and all the unforgettable experiences. We felt comfortable and in the best hands at all times.

A knowledgeable and accommodating Curator of exciting activities and meaningful excursions.
The owner, Leina adds a woman’s touch in the details. I’ve gone on several safaris and some to the same place, but this excursion was far different. She accompanied us and together with the Driver, they gave history and context about Tanzania to the behaviors. Everyone in the group is still talking about the different accommodations that were so versatile and beautiful. The entire trip was amazing because of her expertise and genuine care for guests.

A lifetime experience, a dream that Avocet made come true.
Amani, the driver was just perfect and the experience started with him! He made me feel really safe and confortable in the car and he spotted animals on our way. :)
Then, the Safari guide, Mike was just magic! We were in Ngorogoro the whole morning and we managed to see so many animals thanks to him, with always an amazing view point to be as close to them as possible. Amazing !
Thank you Avocet !

In general well organized but challenges to adopt quickly (car breakdown)
We booked our Safari with Brian from Mackosafaris. The booking process went smoothly and also the communication has been good. We have been picked up from the airport as agreed and started our tour.
Unfortunately our car got a defect on the journey to our first lodge after 20 hours of overall travel (defect of front right wheel axle). After some repair attempts along the way we thought it’s ok and got 2 hours delayed to our first lodge.
After a game drive in the evening and in the morning we were told that the car has to be checked as it is still a problem and we could not go without repair. Unfortunately through that we have been delayed by half a day and I told Brian that we will not go to Amboseli with this delay, as it would have added approximately 8 hours of drive for only one game drive. This would have been a nightmare for our 2 kids.
We have been very frustrated how the company handled the reorganization caused by their defect car which has not been repaired or exchanged in a timely manner. We lost unnecessarily more than half a day of paid Safari out of 3 days and worsening we have been rebooked into 3rd class lodges instead of 1st class which we originally booked and paid for. We were told that they don’t have enough budget left to book us in appropriate lodges like originally booked.
Overall frustrating experience how the company dealt with this unplanned incident (very slow and no adequate alternatives for a problem they caused).
Would recommend to book with a financially stronger and bigger company who can handle unexpected things better or maintain their fleet better.
