Perfect Safari!
The safari was great from booking to actually being in Kenya. Everything was arranged and executed without any issues. I was a female solo traveller and so was slightly apprehensive, but there was no need as it was so well organised. I dealt with Xavier who went through all the info - hotels, timings etc, in great detail. He provided me with a in depth itinerary which meant I was fully informed the whole trip. The actual safari itself was amazing. Our driver Phillip was great and knew the routes well which meant we saw everything we wanted to - including the water crossing as part of the Great Migration! The hotels provided were great and the staff at every location were so lovely and couldn’t have been more helpful.
Overall my experience from booking to safari was 10/10! I would recommend Bluechip and Xavier.

Unforgettable Gorilla safari
I had a few free days after a conference in Rwanda and booked a 3-day gorilla safari with Links Travel Agency, it was absolutely amazing! They handled everything seamlessly, from transport to permits, and the experience in Volcanoes National Park was truly unforgettable. Seeing gorillas up close in their natural habitat was a once in a lifetime moment. Highly recommend Links Travel for anyone visiting Rwanda!

Excellent- once in a lifetime tour!
Richard organized a wonderful tour of the Serengeti. We began with a couple of days in the town of Arusha, where we visited Mount Kilimanjaro and the Naporo Waterfall. Then we embarked on a 7-day safari through Tarangire, the Serengeti, and the Ngorongoro Crater. The scenery in each of these destinations was unique and breathtaking.
We encountered an incredible variety of wildlife—some of our favorite moments included watching a cheetah sprint through the grass, observing several lions up close, and experiencing the rich biodiversity of the Ngorongoro Crater.
Overall, this was an unforgettable tour, and we highly recommend it to anyone planning a trip to Tanzania. As with any travel experience, it’s important to do thorough research in advance—review the hotels, study the itinerary, and choose a tour that best aligns with your interests and needs.

Peter, from Gosheni Safaris gave us one of the best days in africa.
We started with a good briefing about our personalized safari. Then we arrive to Tarangire where the food that Gosheni delivered was pretty tasty. Also, the vehicle was in good conditions. Then we arrive to the lodge selected by them, that more that i expected. Next day we went to a masai village and a safari to Lake Manyara. The lodge that night and the day trip to Ngorongoro was pretty fun, as we were able to start our day at the time that we want, finishing that day earlier than the other ones. Peter, our guide has plenty of knowledge not only about the animals that we have seen, also about tribes and cultural related topics. Finally, our experience was unforgetable, because our guide was cautious with us and the nature.

Unforgettable 4-Day Safari with Friends!
We were six friends in our thirties traveling together on a fantastic 4-day safari with African Big Cats Safari! Everything was perfectly organized, the accommodations were excellent, and our guide Venance was outstanding, knowledgeable, patient, and a true pleasure to travel with. Highly recommend!

Incredible Safari with an excellent guide
Our five-day safari with African Big Cats Safaris was truly unforgettable. Everything ran seamlessly—from the smooth logistics to the thoughtfully planned itinerary—and each day brought us deeper into the heart of Tanzania’s stunning wildlife. A highlight was our lovely stay at the Dove Lodge in Serengeti, where we woke up to a mesmerizing scene: a lion walking just meters away from the lodge, in the beautiful sunrise. In that moment, we felt the pulse of the wild in a way we’ll never forget.
Our guide, Venance, deserves special recognition. His warmth, deep knowledge, and expertise made each game drive feel like a unique experience. He balanced professionalism with genuine care, and his sharp eye ensured we didn’t miss a single magical moment. We couldn’t have asked for a better companion for this journey.
We wholeheartedly recommend African Big Cats Safaris—and especially Venance—to anyone seeking an authentic and enriching safari experience. Asante sana for the memories that will stay with us for years to come.

Well organized and efficient!
Kubwa Five and their in country person Sylvia, of Ompo travel really delivered on an adventurous trip that took us through the diverse terrains of Namibia and showed them in all their glory. Our guide and driver, John was excellent, he was an outstanding birder which we really appreciated, and patient and helpful in supporting us through all our activities.
Great trip, great service, I would definitely recommend them to others planning a trip to Namibia !
Very happy! Top quality service and expert tour guide
Communication: 10/10 - we dealt with James who is based in the central office, during the booking process he was excellent over email and What’s App. Responsive, clear and well organised as we planned our trip.
Driver/Tour Guide: 10/10 - We cannot thank our driver and guide, Joshua, enough. He was knowledgeable, super-organised and a great communicator. Throughout the 6 day safari there was no end to his knowledge about the environment, animals and general culture in Kenya. We got a brilliant education throughout. He was always a step ahead, using the radio to coordinate with other guides, and this ensured we got many sightings and up-close encounters.
Joshua was polite, considerate and made us feel safe and welcome. He honestly could not have done more for us. Thank you Joshua.
We are very pleased overall and would not hesitate to recommend Splendid Vacations. We had one isolated issue on our last day airport transfer - our transfer driver (not our tour guide) was delayed in picking us up but they quickly found an alternative got us to the airport in great time!
We are very satisfied with Splendid and would absolutely use them again.
