Legendary!
"JJC In The Wild"
We had a turbulent start with our flight cancelled into Nairobi...but Splendid were with us every step of the way.
Their communication and organsation throughout the whole experience was top notch! Alice was quick and efficient with helping us make alternative arrangements. Nothing was too much to ask...
Then, meeting James, our legendary tour guide/driver was when the real experience began. The whole programme was magical and unforgettable and this was down to James' expertise, knowledge and kindness. The safari car itself was driven with professionalism and comfort- James is a confident, world class driver- this is needed to keep your tour on track as Kenyan traffic can be formidable.
The roof popped and sides rolled up made for uninterrupted views and memories of elephants, giraffes, rhinos, wildebeest, zebras, cheetahs, lions, leopards, pumbas....the list was endless!
The accommodation at each location was fantastic- tents, bungalows and lodges- all wonderful! Food was delicious at every stop!
The village visit was a humbling experience that we will never forget!
Thank you to this wonderful company for allowing us to create memories to last for an eternity!!!

magnificent
We were so lucky to have Dickson as our Spanish-speaking guide! He spoke the language very well, and was incredibly attentive, friendly, respectful, and responsible. He went above and beyond on the safari to make sure we had a fantastic time! He was very considerate of our personal wish to see big cats. He's also an excellent driver. We would choose him again without hesitation!

This Safari experience was absolutely amazing.
This safari experience was excellent. We saw a great many animals. In particular, Titus provided very professional service during our consultation phase. Our Kenyan guide James showed us Mount Kilimanjaro and numerous animals, took wonderful photos, and was very attentive. Our Tanzanian guide Moses took us to watch the sunrise over the Serengeti and showed us everything we wanted to see. It was truly a wonderful trip.

A really enjoyable Safari in Tanzania
We spent 5 nights and 6 days in Tanzania with Domi and Joshua, and it was such a nice experience.
I was a bit worried at first because my English isn’t very strong, but it turned out to be no problem at all. They were both funny and patient, speaking simple English and sometimes even using hand gestures to explain things. It actually made everything more fun and relaxed.
During the safari, I saw the animals I had hoped to see and also learned about some I had never known before. Every day felt a little different.
It was easy, enjoyable, and something I would happily do again.

It's highly professional, responds promptly, and provides excellent advice
Our overall trip this time was quite satisfactory. At the beginning, Joseph patiently answered my questions, responded very quickly, and provided a very reasonable price. During the trip, our driver and guide was Eric, who was very friendly and patient, taking good care of us along the way. Moreover, he was very quick and professional in spotting animals. He took us to see many animals such as lions hunting and cheetahs, and gave us a lot of introductions.

Excellent communication, organization, follow-up and driver/guide. Highly recommended
I highly appreciated the great sense of communication, organization, reliability and follow-up of the tour by Tellena tours. My 6 day tour with a very experienced and nice driver/guide was terrific and I highly recommend that tour with Tellena, whose value was definitely worth.
Many thanks for the great souvenirs that I will keep from this trip.

Another Incredible Experience – Even Better the Second Time!
In January we set out on our second trip to Kenya and once again we were blown away by how well everything was organised. This time we booked online through Jacmiya and Joseph who set everything up did a fantastic job putting the whole trip together for us. He really listened to what we wanted, adjusted the itinerary until it was exactly what we were looking for and made the whole process feel easy and stress‑free.
We were lucky enough to have John as our guide, and he was just as good, His knowledge of Kenya, the wildlife, and all the parks was brilliant. He’s one of those guides who can somehow spot animals from unbelievable distances pointing out things we never would’ve noticed ourselves. He looked after us from start to finish and made everyday fun, relaxed, and memorable.
Jacmiya did a fantastic job with the overall organisation and every swap of location was as seamless as our first trip, they make it look so effortless. That same level of care absolutely came through on this second visit as well.
Just like before, we always felt at ease and well taken care of from both Jacmiya and their team to all the people we met along the way at lodges and hotels that were chosen for us to which we must say were amazing.
After two incredible trips, we can confidently say that Joseph, John, and the whole Jacmiya team are exceptional. Whether it’s your first safari or your fifth, you’ll be in great hands.
