Excellent service for both Masai Mara and Amboseli
5/5

Thanks Savannah Woods Safari for the great first time experience in Kenya! We booked 2 guided Safari with them, one group one to Masai Mara and one private one to Amboseli. All went very well and we enjoyed it so much. Lucy is great for all the communication and discussion before the booking, and also took good care and checked with us during our Safari to make sure everything goes well. Both of our guide James and Charles were also great, showed us a lot animals and explained quite a lot. Would highly recommend Savannah Woods Safari!!

Perfect
5/5

We did a group safari of Masai Mara and Lake Nakuru and a private safari of Amboseli and Tsavo West. Everything - since the beginning when we planned the trip - was perfectly arranged, on time and beyond our best expectations. The guides (David and Brian) were really amazing and we learnt a lot about wildlife. Lucy from Savannah was following our trip checking on us and I would recommend to anyone this tour operator!

5 Star of hospitality & honesty
5/5

I and my wife joined 2days 1night Amboseli Safari, including 2 game drives. We chose Sopa Lodge, mid-range accommodation.
Before the Safari experience it self their hospitality had started.
Lucy, a operator lady is always helpful and honest. Also she replies promptly.
They offered reasonable price with good lodges from the first quotation. This made us stress-free.

We customized the plan as Nairobi - Amboseli - Namanga because we wanted to go to Tanzania after this Safari.
Lucy researched the detail information to cross the border by bus for us. This made us relieved very much cause crossing border is always sensitive.

Antony, our tour guide was also a nice guy.
He drove carefully and gave us the rich information about the animals and Amboseli.
He was also helping us to get the van from Namanga to Arusha (Tanzania). His help also relieved us a lot.

Overall it was wonderful experience!
We experienced not only Safari itself but warm heart and hospitality of Savannah Woods.
Thank you very much for your coordination.

Savannah Woods planned and provided a holiday exactly as we planned with good communication.
5/5

We spent a lot of time planning the trip with Savannah Woods, they helped us to plan the trip exactly as we wanted it to our budget. Their communication was good and they responded quickly to enquiries. Once planned, the trip went as planned, the guide we had was absolutely fabulous and Savannah Woods checked in with us throughout the trip to ensure all was going well. It was one of the best holidays we’ve ever had. The guide was extremely knowledgeable and very good with our 6 year old. He made sure we got the most out of our trip but did it in a relaxed but professional manner. We were so sad to leave him and Kenya.

Amazing Solo Safari Experience at Amboseli!
5/5

I was looking for a tour to Amboseli when this operator popped up. They provided a clear quote with transparent fees and a detailed itinerary. It was a 2-day, 1-night stay at Ol Tukai Lodge — such a beautiful lodge with a great atmosphere! (Beware of the monkeys.)

Lucy was in constant communication, which made me feel safe and well taken care of throughout the tour, especially since I was traveling solo. The accommodation was great, and the food provided was good as well. I had the car all to myself, so it wasn’t crowded at all.

The game drive was fun. Anthony, my guide, was a fun and flexible guy. I also requested Lucy to arrange dinner at a local eatery before my flight, and had the best Nyama Choma!

Pro tip: Shop at the Ol Tukai Lodge gift shop first before heading to Goldfinch Curious Arts & Gallery. Some items, like caps and shirts, are cheaper at Ol Tukai — and you don’t have to haggle!

Simply amazing.
5/5

I have only praise for my experience with Savannah Woods Safaris. From the get go, Lucy and her team answered all my questions, made a really fair offer and accomodated any extra wishes I had. I booked a 4 day group tour to Masai Mara and Lake Nakuru with a short stop in Lake Nashiva. Our driver Robert was the best guide I could have wished for. He did everything to make sure we get to see all the animals in the park, and had so much background knowledge on the animals and parks. The accomodations were really great, food was ok and service was 10/10. Will never forget the memories made. Thank you for your professionalism and I will definitely come back for another Safari with you some day.

Amboseli Tour - absolutely fantastic!!
5/5

I did a two-day tour from Nairobi to Amboseli.
What a fantastic experience!
I was very lucky in terms of the weather with a fantastic mountain and animal experience.
I went on a solo trip, and stayed in Ol Tokai Lodge, which was fully worth it.
My guide Antony absolutely deserves 5 stars - the tour was great!
I fully recommend this tour!
