Awesome 10 days wild life safari packages provided
Huge thanks to @splendid for organizing such an unforgettable trip! Everything was so well-planned—from the itinerary to the accommodations. I didn’t have to worry about a thing! The team was super friendly, always responsive, and made sure we were comfortable at every step.The best packages i got from the few surveys for the Kenya 10 days wildlife safari.
I have been contacted by Dennis from Splendid Vacations and he has provided the 10 days perfect Safari packages as per my request. All our stays was clean, modern, and well-equipped with good locations where can see animals 🦓🦒🐃 from our room.The staff were genuinely friendly and went out of their way to make sure I was comfortable.The breakfast spread was also really impressive with both local and Western options. Overall, a fantastic stay.
He always follow up with me on the safari plan and even help me a lot with my ETA submission to Kenya as we are having some issues with the name printed in ETA as per our passports.
The price, selection of accommodations and game drive is exactly followed as per itinerary listed in the packages from day 1 to day 10.
Dennis also accomodate my spouse request to do a surprise birthday celebration by the hotel staff.
Also on last day our vehicles having issues and they immediately send a rescue and provide us a dinner at Hilton Hotel. Thank you so much.
Our Driver Rono is well known about the routes to go to each parks and also quick in spotting the animals.
He also very knowledgeable on the each animals and explained well to us of their habitats and activities. He always ensure our safety first while driving us to anywhere.
We are fully satisfied with their services as we are first a bit worried on the services but its proven our assumptions is wrong.
Thanks again for the absolute awesome services & such a memorable experience. I’ve already recommended you to friends and family, and I’m looking forward to planning another trip with you soon!

Excellent experience for first time safari tour
**Our First African Safari with Splendid Vacations**
This was our first trip to Africa and our first safari experience, but Splendid Vacations made it truly unforgettable. From their professional tour management and comfortable vehicle to the excellent accommodations and incredible game drives, every detail exceeded our expectations.
Our driver and guide, Julias, made each day extraordinary. Every game drive brought new and exciting discoveries, and his passion and dedication kept us inspired throughout the journey. He encouraged us to embrace every moment, making our adventure even more rewarding.
This trip went far beyond what we had imagined. We wholeheartedly recommend Splendid Vacations and Julias to anyone seeking an exceptional safari experience.

Excellent experience from start to finish
Beautiful safari with Splendid Vacation. Excellent organization from start to end. They picked us up at our Resort with a Toyota 4x4 just for our group of 5 people. Our driver was James, unfortunately he didn't speak Italian as requested so we definitely missed something in the explanations but he was searching every time for animals. James knew where to go for the best viewing and photography opportunities. He was kind and punctual. We visited Tsavo East and West and Amboseli. Lodges recommended by the company were all excellent, clean and comfortable, all with nice pools to swim in. During the safari we saw many elephants and antelopes as well as buffalo, giraffes, zebras and even 2 lionesses with 2 cubs. We also have a night safari. We seen 4 of the big 5. The trip was excellent, we enjoyed it a lot.

An amazing adventure from start to finish
I can’t say enough about this whole operation. From start to finish e ruined made this experience seem less. The booking was smooth, Maryann was extremely helpful and friendly.
When we arrived our guide Willy was friendly and kind. He played awesome reggae music for us the whole drive to the preserve. He was extremely knowledgeable and catered to all our needs.
The staff at the resort takes all pressure off of your shoulders and anticipates all your needs.
The food was amazing and the staff is so nice.
Stephen, Cynthia and Wilson went out of their way to accommodate anything we wanted.
The wieght of the world rolls off your shoulders at this place. I can’t say enough about everything. If we ever return to Kenya- this is where we will be returning! A million thanks!!!

Willy truly made our stay in Kenya unforgettable, becoming the highlight of our entire trip.
From the moment we landed to our departure, every detail was flawlessly orchestrated, ensuring a seamless and magical experience. Our guide, Willy, was nothing short of amazing-his expertise and passion brought the wonders of Kenya to life, allowing us to see everything we dreamed of and more. We love you, Willy, and when we come back, you'll be stuck with us again!
If you're planning a trip to Kenya, do yourself a favor and reach out to them and ask for Willy.
They crafted an itinerary that exceeded all expectations, making our journey truly special. I can't wait to return and explore even more with them!

The trip was amazing!
They were great! They planned a great trip that included so much more than most other tours. Highly recommend adding that balloon safari! We left cash and valuables in the truck and it was never touched. We trusted them and felt very safe.

Awesome Mara Safari
We had a great time during our 3 day tour to the zebra Mara camp. We did a full day game drive with our guide James, who has a terrific knowledge and a great sense of humor. We saw so many lions and all the other great animals. Accommodation can also be highly recommended. We especially liked our high intensity Picknick lunch close to the lions ;)
Splendid experience provided by Splendid Vacations
I recently had the privilege of experiencing the breathtaking beauty of Masai Mara with Splendid Vacations, and it was truly an unforgettable adventure. From the moment we began planning our trip, the team at Splendid demonstrated exceptional professionalism and dedication to ensuring that every detail was meticulously taken care of.
Our driver, James, was the epitome of excellence. His extensive knowledge of the wildlife and terrain made every moment of our safari special. James's ability to spot even the most elusive animals was impressive, and his adaptability to our requests made the experience even more enjoyable. His passion for sharing the wonders of Masai Mara was evident throughout our journey, and his friendly demeanor made us feel safe and welcome.
The accommodations arranged by Splendid were superb, offering comfortable stays with excellent food and stunning views. The entire experience was well-organized, and I appreciated the emphasis on providing a personalized and immersive wildlife adventure.
I highly recommend Splendid Vacations, especially with James as your driver, for anyone seeking an authentic and thrilling safari experience in Masai Mara. Their commitment to quality and customer satisfaction is truly commendable.

Reliable - Honest - Great Knowledge - Communicative - Responsive - Best resort selection
Overall my trip went superbly well. Great memories and awesome execution by Splendid Vacations. My route was Nairobi Airport < Masai Mara < Central Serengeti< Southern Serengeti with balloon safari< Ngorongoro Crater < Amboseli NP< Nairobi Airport
I was a solo traveler from USA and skeptical on booking this trip due to new country/continent and new people. My assistant was Rachael. She was amazing throughout the journey by staying in touch the entire trip and before with my itinerary/planning. I would definitely recommend if you are planning for Africa.
What went well:
1. Drafting my itinerary with rates.
2. Resort selections and services were excellent. Rachael understood my requirements well and provided best resorts.
3. Great tour guides with punctuality and knowledge about area.
4. Vehicles provided were in good condition
Learnings: Something that I learnt and would like to pass.
1. If you are vegetarian, do carry some food for the trip. I carried some dry snacks and food for game drives because I like snacking while having fun in forest.
2. Plan well and share your interests about which location is important for you. The park passes are on day/hourly basis. If you are looking to spend more time in one park, say, Ngorongoro crater you may have to check-in late at the entrance. Something that you should talk before making bookings and tour guide will guide you according to your interests.
3. Climate could be harsh, so plan your trip likewise. I generally travel places in shoulder months to avoid tourist crowd. It worked well for me in Feb.
4. Plan you day ahead with your driver/travel guide to make best use of your day and places you want to cover.

Well planned and thought out trip, but underestimated travel times
We had a great time booking through Splendid! Our guide Mwololo was attentive, experienced and kind, and really helped us relax and get into the safari spirit. We were able to cover 4 national parks and also complete a hike in just 6 days! An added bonus was seeing all of the big 5 which I cannot thank Mwololo and splendid enough for. The trip was designed perfectly to our budget and personalised requests, the accommodations were all clean and safe and comfortable, and everywhere we went the people were so friendly! We would definitely use splendid again. The only complaint we had was the driving times between parks was underestimated for pretty much all the drives, so we spent more time commuting than we had anticipated.
