Unforgettable Masai Mara Safari
Willy was an absolutely incredible guide for our Masai Mara trip! He is wonderfully warm, friendly, and super easy to communicate with, while maintaining the utmost professionalism in his work. On top of that, the price was very reasonable for the amazing quality of the safari. Thanks to his passion and dedication, we were able to spot so many animals and witness incredible wildlife moments. 3 nights were definitely not enough—we didn't want to leave!
The trip of a lifetime
We are a family of 6 from New York with kids ages 9 to 17. After researching and getting several quotes, we booked a 2-week safari and beach trip in Kenya with Splendid Vacations. Before, during, and after we booked we had numerous communications with Alice asking all kinds of questions and follow-ups. She was extremely responsive and helpful, even overnight and at early hours East Africa time.
We had the trip of a lifetime! Kenya is spectacular. The people we met were incredibly kind and hospitable. It is hard to imagine a better place to visit.
We feel very fortunate to have been paired with our guide and driver, Alex Masila. He was an A+. The game drives in Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru, and Amboseli were fantastic for everyone in our family. We saw "the big 5," which was excellent, and we also saw all kinds of other wildlife in all kinds of settings and scenarios, including lots of instances with no one else around and with such peace and serenity. Alex has some magic tricks that keep him several steps ahead out there. He also is extremely knowledgeable, and has a great feel as a host and guide. He was also simpatico with our autistic 9-year-old. He felt like part of our family by the end of the safari.
The lodgings were magnificent. In one instance a lodging on our original itinerary was full, and Splendid instead booked an alternative lodging that was better at no additional cost. The beach resort was spectacular.
The transportation was reliable. The jeep was flawless, even over the potholed roads with their African massage. Our train ride to Mombasa and flight back to Nairobi also went without a hitch.
In addition to the game drives, the added excursions were unforgettable. Some of the highlights were the walk along the Masai River, the boat tour on Lake Naivasha, the visit to a Masai village, and the snorkeling day trip at Kisite Mpunguti Marine National Park and Wasini Island.
If we are ever lucky enough to return the first thing we'll do is contact Alice and Alex to book with Splendid again!

Amazing vacations
From my first contact with Dennis regarding quotations to the follow-up with Janet, their communication was always prompt, clear, and professional. Janet, who picked me up at the airport, was incredibly kind and gentle. She consistently checked in on me throughout my safari to make sure I was enjoying the experience. My driver and guide, Augustine, was absolutely wonderful. He is knowledgeable, well-prepared, and genuinely passionate about what he does. He has “binocular eyes” that could spot animals from miles away and I truly enjoyed the safari experience very much.

A Journey of the life
All was PERFECT !!!! Since the beginning James was quick to respond and he immediately understood our requests and he arranged for us an unforgettable 8 days Safari (Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru, Amboseli). The accomodations that he choose for us were very clean, safe and close to the parks. The food was delicious, varied, and plentiful.
What about our guide Dominik? He is a tireless driver and he made us feel very safe during the trip outside and inside the parks. Thanks to him, we were able to observe all the animals we wanted to see up close, including the Great Migration.
He always answered to our questions and explained the wildlife behaviours.
We higly recommend Splendid Vacations
Thanks James and Dominik, for making this trip UNFORGETTABLE!!!
