Amazing from start to finish
From our initial contact with Savannah Sound Safaris we were impressed with Patricia. She responded promptly and was professional and extremely helpful.
Once we arrived in Nairobi that professionalism continued with our guide Duncan. He was extremely well organized and ensured our safari went smoothly. He was polite and knowledgeable. He was an excellent driver and kept us safe. He showed us so many animals and shared so much information about them. He also told us about the country and the people and was always willing to answer all of our questions.
The safari was amazing from start to finish and I highly recommend Savannah Sound Safaris.

Absolutely amazing!!
Our safari with Savannah Sound Safaris was absolutely amazing! When we first enquired about maybe doing a safari Patricia reached out to us personally and explained everything to us. It was because of her that we decided to take the leap and come to Kenya. She worked with us to plan the perfect safari, answering all of our questions along the way.
Once we arrived in Nairobi we were met by our guide Duncan who was amazing. He was polite, professional, considerate and incredibly knowledgeable. He was able to show us so many different animals and share knowledge about them all. We were lucky enough to see the big five which was a dream come true. You could really tell how passionate Duncan was about the animals and their wellbeing. He also took time to tell us about Kenya, the people and some of the culture which we really appreciated.
Choosing Savannah Sound Safaris was the best decision we made and I would recommend them to everyone.
Thank you to Patricia, Duncan and Savannah Sound Safaris for this incredible experience.

Perfect, exceptionally experienced and good service.
Our safari with Savannah Sound Safari was absolutely perfect from start to finish. Every detail was handled with professionalism, care, and genuine hospitality. If you’re looking for the best safari experience in Kenya, look no further.
A very special thanks to our incredible guide, Nicolaus (“Nico”), who truly made our trip unforgettable. He is, without a doubt, the best guide we could have hoped for. His knowledge, experience, and amazing tracking skills helped us spot all of the Big Five in just one day,something we never imagined would be possible! Nico was friendly, patient, passionate about wildlife, and always made sure we had the best possible views and experiences.
Savannah Sound Safari also went above and beyond by helping us book our train tickets and arranging our transportation at no extra cost. That level of service and generosity is rare and shows how much they genuinely care about their guests.
We cannot recommend Savannah Sound Safari highly enough. You simply won’t find a better safari agency in Kenya.
Very serviceminded company and really competent driver
It was very easy to communicate with the owner of the company. He was flexible and always serviceminded. Then we met the driver Nicholas and he was the best driver you can get. He was so competent; knew where the animals could be, took us to special places, found animals others never found and he also told us much about the environment, the animals and about the society and the country. Always in a good mood. We could recommend Savannah sounds safari to everyone who wants a unique experience outside the big companies.

A Once-in-a-Lifetime Safari Experience with Exceptional Guides
Savannah Sounds Safaris provided us with an unforgettable, once-in-a-lifetime experience led by passionate experts who truly bring the culture, wildlife, and country to life.
Our safari exceeded every expectation. Duncan, our driver and guide, was absolutely phenomenal. His knowledge, expertise, and passion were evident every step of the journey, and he made the experience so much more meaningful. We walked away not only with incredible memories, but also with a deeper appreciation and understanding of the culture, wildlife, and country itself.
Every driver we had for our group was communicative, professional, and incredibly accommodating to any requests we had throughout the trip. The level of service, attention to detail, and genuine care for guests made us feel comfortable and well taken care of from start to finish.
This was truly a lifetime experience for the books, and one that we will cherish forever. I would highly recommend Savannah Sound Safaris to anyone considering a safari adventure, and I would not hesitate to book with them again in the future.

A well-organised and unforgettable safari
We did a 9-day tour with Savannah Sound Safaris as a group of 17 people, traveling in three separate jeeps with three amazing drivers (Samuel, Duncan, and Nick). They were not only excellent drivers and knowledgeable guides, but also felt like friends throughout the journey. They genuinely cared about our experience and did their absolute best to make each day amazing. They kept the group on schedule while allowing enough flexibility for us to enjoy each moment and take great photos. There was never a sense of being rushed.
Before the tour, I wanted to travel from Nairobi to Mombasa, and even though this was not part of the package, the tour operator kindly arranged my tickets in advance. We had a member in our group with mobility issues, and the team ensured that the jeep was accessible and comfortable for them, making the journey much easier.
Considering everything we experienced, the incredible wildlife, the accommodation, the comfort, and the flexibility to choose locations, the value for money was excellent.
Our driver, Samuel, was fantastic. Having done this for nearly 20 years, he had extensive knowledge about the animals, took the time to let us enjoy every moment, and was friendly, fun, and highly experienced. He was a very safe driver, which made us feel completely at ease.
I would definitely use this company again for a safari in Kenya and would love to travel with the same drivers and guides. They were reliable, went above and beyond, and gave us an unforgettable experience.

Nic was the absolute best driver safe, funny, and went above and beyond for my family!
Our driver, Nic (Nicholas), was absolutely amazing from day one! He is incredibly friendly, has a great sense of humor, and kept us feeling safe throughout the entire journey. Since I was traveling with my family, I deeply appreciated the extra measures he took to ensure everyone was comfortable and attended to. He anticipated our every need and truly made our trip special. Nic is simply the best thank you so much!

The perfect Kenyan safari experience!
When I landed in Kenya, if anyone asked me where I would go for my next African safari I would have said Tanzania or Botswana. But now I want to go back to Kenya just so I can see more of Kenya with Savannah Sound Safaris and here's why.
A safari in Kenya was a dream trip for me for a long time and I could not have chosen a better tour operator for that trip than Savannah Sound Safaris. From the very first day I contacted them to start planning the trip to the moment they dropped us off at the airport at the end of the trip, they were very professional and reliable. Ours was a group of 17 and Danson, who managed the entire booking and planning process, made it so easy for us to plan the trip for such a large group. The level of customization they offered to our itinerary was the biggest positive during the planning process.
The tour itself was simply amazing. The 3 driver-guides Nick, Duncan and Samuel, made sure we had prime seats to breathtaking encounters with wild animals. What stood out for me was they provided that prime experience to us while respecting the wildlife and their natural habitat.
Did we get value for the money we paid? Absolutely! But is that all we got? Absolutely no! We got an experience and memories we will cherish for the rest of our lives.

The tour operator was very experienced, cautious, attentive and understanding.
Our operator was Samuel (locals knew him as Kim/Kimani) and he was amazing at his job. Just like him, other drivers Duncan and Nik were amazing people. Samuel had close to 20 years of experience on the job and it was evident with the way he handled each and every situation. He was very well informed about the wildlife, their behaviors, what to expect and what not to expect in the Savannah. He shared his knowledge with us about each and every animal as well as other natural things in the parks. Whatever he didn’t know, he googled and shared everything he learned after we were done pleasing our eyes. He was extremely polite and never disturbing or rushing us.
He explained the plans to us very well, when to meet him, where to meet him, etc. Even our food and accommodation was arranged by him and he always checked with us if we were comfortable with what the hotels offered.
What impressed me the most was his philosophy; slowly but surely. We had long drives between national parks (4-7 hours on the road sometimes) and he was always very careful in his driving. When we travelled through some troublesome parts of towns, he made sure that we had locked our doors and closed our shutters of the vehicle.
We are definitely going back and definitely choosing Savannah Sound Safaris.
Asante
