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

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.

Once in a life time memory!
Our experience with Safari Goats was absolutely unforgettable! From the very start, Grace and Cilas went above and beyond to make sure our group felt comfortable, welcomed, and excited for the adventure ahead. They were not only incredibly knowledgeable about the wildlife and landscape but also genuinely passionate about sharing it with us.
Grace was warm and engaging, always ready to answer our questions with a smile, while Cilas impressed us with his deep understanding of animal behavior and the local environment. Together, they made every moment feel special — whether it was spotting elusive animals, explaining fascinating details about the ecosystem, or making sure we were safe and cared for at every step.
Their hospitality was exceptional, and their enthusiasm made the entire safari come alive. We left feeling inspired, informed, and grateful for such an authentic experience. I can’t recommend Safari Goats — and especially Grace and Cilas — highly enough. They turned a great trip into a truly once-in-a-lifetime memory!

Well prepared and professional
We took the 7-day trip to Maasai Mara, Nakuru, Naivasha, and Amboseli.
The trip was well organized, and our tour guide Raymond was excellent — he had plenty of knowledge, which made the journey both enjoyable and informative.
I highly recommend booking with them.

Evans is an incredibly kind and amazing guide, always caring, attentive, and focused on you.
We spent three amazing days at the Taita Hills Sanctuary, spotting animals and soaking up the wild. Evans was with us the whole time, and honestly, he was the reason our experience was unforgettable. From the very first moment, he wanted to know what we hoped to see and what we wanted to get out of the trip. We got to see every animal we’d wished for and learned so much about how they live in their natural habitat. We enjoyed two full days of safari and a half day when we arrived, and even added a night safari (an extra paid activity offered by the hotel) for that extra thrill. We had no problem communicating in English, and Evans was perfectly understandable at all times. Even my husband, who has a hearing impairment, was able to communicate and understand him without any problem. I would describe it in three words: incredible, special, unforgettable. Thank you for this amazing honeymoon!
