Very knowledgeable, passionate with great charisma.
Had an amazing Kenyan safari adventure with jungle roam. Our guide poppa jones was phenomenal, he was very knowledgeable, passionate and gave us insightful information about the animals, and taught us some Swahili to help us interact with the local people.
An amazing experience, a trip we will never forget, would definitely booked with them again.

Everything ran perfectly and our guide was INCREDIBLE.
Where to start… from the offset, we were charmed by Papa Johns energy and humour, the journeys between camps were made interesting with the knowledge and experience shared by our wonderful guide Papa John. We were incredibly lucky to see all the big 5, leopards and cheetahs too. Breathtaking adventure, wonderful wildlife and a charming, brilliant guide that made the trip a once in a lifetime experience.

Fantastic experience - would absolutely recommend
We (3 of us) booked on a group tour departing Nairobi for 5 nights and we had the most incredible time with Papa John as our driver. He was informative from start to end, joined in on our chats and also gave us a lot of information about Kenyan culture too. He made such a great effort to make sure we always had the best view of all of the animals, and we saw the most incredible sights. The big 5 were all ticked off, along with so much more wildlife. A huge thankyou to Papa John for pointing out so many things we wouldn’t have spotted , and for being kind and funny along the way. We’d 100% recommended this safari and Papa John, and are so grateful for an unforgettable experience. 5*, thankyou

Unforgettable 7-day safari across Kenya! Amazing wildlife, great guide Jack & perfect organization
An unforgettable experience of a lifetime!
We are a couple from the Czech Republic, and we spent seven incredible days on safari, traveling through Amboseli, Lake Naivasha, Lake Nakuru, and the Masai Mara — and we were lucky enough to see the Big Five! Every single day was filled with breathtaking views, amazing wildlife, and moments we’ll never forget.
A huge thank-you goes to our amazing guide Jack — he was incredibly kind, helpful, knowledgeable, and always patient with our endless questions. His stories were inspiring and gave us a deep insight into Kenyan life, wildlife, and culture. It truly felt like traveling with a friend who loves his country and what he does.
We also want to thank Peter for his excellent communication and organization — everything went smoothly from start to finish. The accommodations and food were great everywhere, and we felt safe and well taken care of throughout the entire trip.
This adventure gave us memories for a lifetime. Kenya, its nature, and its people have truly touched our hearts.
We’ll never forget this journey! ❤️

Fast and clear communication
We had good communication with Gems of Africa beforehand. The price was reasonable and our stay at Bakubung was very good. Beautiful lodge, good food, and wonderful game drives in Pilanesberg. We even saw elephants at the lodge!

5 Days of Uganda primates and wildlife
I had never traveled to Uganda before; the only thing I knew was that it’s close to Kenya. However, my friend in Kenya convinced me that I could fly to Uganda, and he would come by bus from Nakuru, Kenya, so we could meet up for a gorilla safari and wildlife adventure. We had five excellent days in Queen Elizabeth National Park, where we did game drives in the Katwe Plains. We were also convinced to reach some crater lakes. After that, our guide drove us to the Buhoma sector at Gorilla Mist Lodge for an overnight stay, waiting to track the gorillas. The experience was amazing—seeing gorillas in the wild, one of which had a baby, was unbelievable. The creatures were so close to humans. When we turned back from the trek, our guide Moses was just waiting for us. Thank you, Moses, and Roads of Adventure Safaris

It was a good experience, but I think the organization could have been better!
They didn’t provide the 5-day safari itinerary in advance. While I was already on the tour, I was informed that I wouldn’t be spending two nights in the Serengeti, and if I chose to, there would be an extra charge of US$145. Other than that, the guide Peter did an excellent job, the chef prepared delicious meals, and I was lucky enough to see many animals!
However, the car broke down one day, and we had to wait over three hours for it to be repaired. On another day, we waited almost two hours at the park entrance due to documentation issues.

Amazing Safari tour for the first time, brian indigo the best tour guide
I have just returned from our safari, and we are still struggling to find the words to describe how truly magical this experience was. From start to finish, every detail was impeccably handled by the Savanah Woods team.
Our guide, Brian, was an absolute superstar. His knowledge of the wildlife, ecosystems, and local culture was astounding. He had a keen eye for spotting animals we would have easily missed, from a leopard perfectly camouflaged in a tree to a herd of elephants silently crossing the path. He wasn't just a driver; he was a passionate conservationist who made every game drive an exciting adventure.
The accommodations were fine, a budget but not compromised one. The lodges were comfortable, the food was delicious, and the staff went above and beyond to make us feel welcome.
We saw the Big Five and so much more. But beyond the incredible animal sightings, it was the little moments—the silence of the landscape, the brilliance of the stars at night, the warmth of the people—that truly captured our hearts.
I felt safe, well-cared-for, and completely immersed in the beauty of Africa.
