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

unforgettable experience!!
Where do I even begin. This was our first safari ever, in Kenya, and we could not have asked for a better experience. Duncan, Nic, and Samuel made this trip something we will carry with us for the rest of our lives.
Our driver Duncan, we felt so lucky to have him. He never rushed anything. He took the time to point out every bird, explain the history, share the stories behind what we were seeing.
You could feel how much he loves what he does, As first timers, we were not sure what to expect. But this team knew exactly where to go and when.
We saw almost everything on our list, and then some. It was not just a tour, it felt personal.
If you are thinking about it, just book it. You will not regret it.
Great service and highly recommended
The tour was very well planned with all bookings being arranged prior to the tour. The drivers were amazing with their animal spotting skills and explaining. They were very helpful and friendly sharing all information that a tourist should know about Kenya.

Absolutely Fantastic!!!
We went on a 5-day safari to Lake Nakuru (with a stop at Lake Naivasha) and then onto to Masai Mara. We were lucky to come after some rainfall so the scenery was very green. The tour operator was great — he sent us a very detailed plan of what we would be doing every day so everything was clear. There were no hidden costs so we knew what we would pay up front and nothing was added. The driver was great — knowledgeable, competent, and above all, safe. He knew the best places to find the animals and we even managed to see the most elusive ones like leopards and cheetahs. We picked a luxury package and the accommodations were spectacular. I could not recommend this tour operator more — if there were 10 stars to give I would give him 10!!!

Great luxury safari experience at a good price
Patricia, who was our contact was very helpful and prompt. The safari was excellent. We managed to catch so many animals and the accommodation, and service/ knowledge from our guide Duncan was top notch. I would definitely recommend SS
