A splendid vacation indeed
Splendid Vacations - exact words to describe our 7 day trip.
From the moment we started planing with James, our arrival in Nairobi and the warm welcome and amazing tours by Alex across Kenya and finally Tanzania with Tony, we couldn’t have picked a better company to take care of the details.
Alex was able to spot ALL the animals, find spots with very little cars and hidden wildlife for the best pictures! He was always punctual, made sure that get to places just at the right time. We managed to see ALL the animals we were hoping to see by lake Nakuru and in the Mara.
The second portion of the trip across Serengeti and Ngorongoro, we had a chance to have another incredible guide who made sure our amazing experience continues. Tony was incredibly knowledgeable and was able to spot animals in places we would never even think to look. He was always on time, made sure he kept us on schedule and shared the knowledge of Tanzania, animals and things way beyond our expectations.
Finally, James. He was patient, attentive and made sure we felt like the only clients throughout the planning process and during the trip. James ensured our trip went smooth and even with a couple of small hiccups along the way, he managed to resolve everything in the best way possible.
All in all, we couldn’t have found a better tour company to take care of us for this once in a lifetime experience.
Thank you for an unforgettable experience ❤️

Excellent communication, expert guide and an unforgettable safari
We had an excellent experience with Splendid Vacations on our 2-day safari in Kenya. The tour was very well organised from start to finish, and communication before and during the trip was prompt, clear and reliable.
Our guide, Rono, was outstanding. He had exceptional knowledge of the area, wildlife and local conditions, and was always willing to accommodate our requests to maximise what we could see during our stay. Thanks to Rono's expertise, we were fortunate enough to see the Big Five in a single day, which exceeded our expectations.
I would highly recommend Splendid Vacations to anyone planning a safari in Kenya.

Great stay recommendations and guides
Splendid vacations was a great company to book our tour with. They were very responsive from the start and took note of every detail and requirements. The stays they proposed were of high quality and had great overall location to maximize time in the park. The guides they provided were friendly and helpful and had great eye to spot wildlife which resulted in us having great game drives all throughout the trip.
James and Eddie were great in both legs of our trip in Kenya and Tanzania.
Highly recommend

Great service all round
We started booking our holiday over 6 months before travelling and decided to employ Splendid Vacations.
We wanted a 4 day Safari of the Masai Mara followed by a 4 day Safari of the Serengeti with a few days break in between. Sammy was brilliant from start to finish, working with us to nail down our exact requirements and the price breakdown was transparent with no hidden surprises.
All communication was clear and dealt with promptly.
The safaris were amazing, with the guides offering a huge range of knowledge. Julius was a stand out guide, he was outstanding in working hard to locate the best sightings, very courteous and helpful.
Overall, a really great experience.

Best of the best
Just ending the Kenya portion of our trip and very sad to say goodbye to Alex. What’s an amazing guide. Found ALL the animals and was always able to position for the best close up shots. We saw everything the Mara had to offer thanks to Alex. Many key moments and sightings we were the only vehicle there. Alex is always flexible and makes sure that you are getting the adventure you wanted. Vehicle was fantastic and comfortable and even included a refrigerated cooler with water. The pop up is a must. Everything else that Splendid did for us was well organized. We’ve been spoiled. We’ll miss you Alex, thank you!

Very responsive, great tour options, excellent drivers, top notch combination.
We just want to share our sincere gratitude to Splendid vacations. From the moment of our arrival and pick up to our drop off and final day, we had nothing but 5 star, exceptional service and hospitality. Our drivers Rono, Tony and Julius were outstanding! They were all knowledgeable about the parks, history of everything we did and of course, about the animals. They worked very had to ensure that we got to see and know about everything we encountered. Our drivers were exceptionally friendly, all smiles and always willing to be of service. Without them, this trip would have not have been as spectacular as it was. Our accommodations were all top notch with excellent amenities and some were in the national parks so that were as close to nature as possible. I would highly recommend this company to anyone looking for a safari adventure of a lifetime. We leave back home with our hearts full of all the beauty that Kenya and Tanzania had to offer us.
Thank you!

The perfect Kenia Safari
It starts with the preparations and looking at the extensive itinerary. Communication before and during the journey is always good and Rachel really thought with me what to choose.
The safari itself was amazing. The driver/guide was very experienced and showed us the best spots and we have seen all the animals.
The car is very comfortable and strong and brings you everywhere.
