Great Safari experience with Savannah Woods tour!
I had a great experience as a female single traveler with Savannah Woods Safari! If you are looking for a safe, good deal and five star service in Masai Mara, definitely choose this tour agent!
1. The co-ordinator Lucy is super patient and considerate, she offered to pick me up even my hotel is more than 1 hour's drive away. and Lucy also provided me dinner options after the tour when I was still in Nairobi before my flight.
2. Our driver Albert is a very experienced driver (he said 6 years of experience!) , good at tracing animals and dealing with roughness road. I saw all the animals I was supposed to see! Albert is also very punctual, never be late, and knowledgeable to answer all my questions. On our driving to the Masa Mara reserve and back to Nairobi, I feel very safe to sleep all the way on the trip.
3. The place I stayed is also super nice, it's upgraded tent, quiet with good food and nice staff.
one small suggestion to the tent lodge: some guests woke up so early and talked loudly in their tent that woke me up too! So if you have enough budget, chose lodge over tent, because tent do have the noise problem if your neighbours are not quiet.
But I won't blame Savannah because my loud neighbours are from another tour.

Good journey
We enjoyed the tour so much. The operator, Lucy, is flexible and managed our journey well. The car is new and confortable, the driver, Albert, is high skilled driving. The camp is clearly and the staffs are so friendly. I recommend this tour.

Memories for a lifetime
If you are like me, you are reading review after review trying to decide if one company is better than another and if it safe, reliable, honest, and will deliver the goods. What I can say is that Savannah Woods came through with flying colors all around.
I am a solo traveler on this trip and they helped integrate me into a group and made it feel seamless. They were excellent with communication and followed through at each step.
Our guide, Kikitu, was well-connected and worked hard to deliver an amazing experience. He knows what he he doing and I am so grateful to him for guiding this trip!
Also, the accommodations in my trip - Sopa Lodge at Masai Mara and Lake Nakuru Lodge - were above and beyond all my expectations. WOW!
Feel confident if you book with Savannah Woods. I was a bit nervous at first but it came together in an amazing way.

Very good safari
We had an excellent 3 day safari with Savanbah Woods. The Ashnil hotel had excellent service, good food and the best thing was the permanent smile of its employees. Anthony, our game driver really tried hard to show us the Big 5 of Samburu and he succeeded. Thank you very much Anthony for making us have an incredible vacation.

Responsive, accommodating, adventure!!
Had an EXCELLENT experience coordinating with Lucy for our 4 day 3 night safari. Lucy was very responsive and quickly sent out multiple quotes based on different accommodation budget/types, so I had options to choose from.
I definitely recommend going for their budget tent camp option, Mara Olodare. Way better than the Lenchada camp that the others in my group went to. Incredible food and hospitable staff! We had an amazing stay.
Great tour groups as well, and tour guides that were flexible on what the group wanted to do. Value for money was great.

They were easy, quick, flexible, and created an amazing safari experience!
I requested a quote only a couple days before the dates for the trip, and they did an amazing job booking everything quickly and exactly as advertised. Peter was the driver and helped set everything up and did an amazing job driving in very muddy conditions where other vehicles got stuck. He also went out of his way to talk to the rangers and make sure we saw a cheetah at the very end at our last chance. I definitely recommend this company and to go on a safari with Peter!

Reliable service, fun and adventure
Before booking, I had no idea what I would get. I found Lucy online and I just went with the flow. Well, I had a really life experience to be honest. The safari was great and the people I met were awesome, we had a blust! So much fun, I will never forget it. Thank you so much Lucy! Kenya is an amazing country!!

Everything was absolutely perfect!!!
We booked our dream Safari for our Honeymoon with Lucy. Lucy was from the beginning till the end very professional, kind and made our wishes come true. Our driver and guide Alex was excellent! He was always in a good mood, brought a lot of energy, told us very interesting facts about each animal, about Masai Mara and Kenya in general. We enjoyed the trip very much, learnt a lot and had an amazing time! We stayed at the Jambo Mara Safari Lodge in a Glas room, which we really loved. All in all we had an unforgettable trip, amazing people, great accommodation, great experiences! I can only recommend Savannah Woods Safaris.

Excellent services
It has been absolute pleasure having Savannah as our tour partner for 3D masai mara safari. Lucy helped us from the beginning with customized quotation, good deals and other information about masai mara. One of the best things which I loved is timely response across all queries. Also, our tour guide Alex was wonderful to be with in those 3 days and he tried to show us the best spots throughout our journey and also helped with few food related issues with the lodge. Overall a great experience and 100% recommended!

Great service from Lucy, beautiful accommodations and tour. Vehicle could be upgraded. Recommended
Excellent tour. I did 3 days 4 nights in Masai Mara and Lake Nakuru. Would recommend and don't miss Lake Nakuru. I traveled alone and was placed with other travellers from other tour companies. The entire group was lovely.
Peter was our driver and was a great guy. He was often late for pickups which is understandable given the factors that go into an elaborate tour.
Unfortunately we missed a wave of the great migration by a week at Masai Mara. We did see the Big 5 despite this. Peter was very knowledgeable.
I would recommend staying at the Lake Nakuru Lodge. It was the highlight of my tour. Great service and scenery. Excellent food.
Lucy was beyond exceptional. She was attentive and thoughtful. She checked in with me and when mistakenly paid twice she went out of her way to refund me. Grade A service!
