A Truly Memorable Experience Exploring Ethiopia's Most Extraordinary Natural Wonder
My partner and I chose the 2 Day Lalibela Tour with Danakil Depression Tours, and it was one of the most meaningful experiences of our trip to Ethiopia. From the moment we arrived, we were captivated by the incredible rock-hewn churches, rich history, and peaceful atmosphere that make Lalibela so unique. Our guide was exceptionally knowledgeable and shared fascinating stories that helped us understand the significance of each site. The tour was thoughtfully organized, giving us enough time to explore without feeling rushed. Every detail, from transportation to the itinerary, was handled professionally, making the entire experience smooth and enjoyable. We left with unforgettable memories and would happily travel with Danakil Depression Tours again.

Unforgettable experience
From the very beginning, Sammy replied to my emails really quickly. It didn’t matter if it was a weekday or weekend, or even with the time difference. He always got back to me in a couple of hours. If it wasn’t for him, I honestly don’t think I would have had the motivation to make this trip happen.
When he picked us up at the airport, we immediately felt how genuine and caring he was. Throughout the trip, he regularly checked in on us to make sure everything was going well.
Our guide, Gabriel, was amazing. He was incredibly experienced and always quick to head to wildlife sightings as soon as he heard them over the radio. He also made sure we got the best spots for photos. What impressed us most was that he could drive and spot animals at the same time. He often found animals long before we even noticed them ourselves.
I’m so glad I chose Splendid Vacations. They made our Kenya safari an unforgettable experience, and I’ll definitely book with them again if I ever come back to Kenya. Highly recommend!

Great Tour operator
We had a wonderful safari/beach holiday organised by Jamlan. We had a private tour for four of us. Teddy responded quickly to any queries we had and the transfers and accommodation they organised were great. Our guide, John was just fantastic…knew so much about the wildlife and culture. It was a truly memorable holiday and very good value for money. Many thanks Jamlan.

Very perfect
Johnny is a truly professional, 100-point tour guide! He has an amazing talent for spotting wildlife. We even got to watch lions eating breakfast, and the lion cubs were right outside our window. Plus, he speaks fluent Chinese!

The Safari of a Lifetime – An Unforgettable Experience with Safari Avventura, Clement & John! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
If you're looking for the safari of a lifetime, look no further than Safari Avventura! From the very first contact to the last game drive, everything was perfectly organized and exceeded every expectation.
Before our trip, we had a video call with Enrico, the organizer, who patiently answered all our questions and explained every detail of the itinerary and logistics. His professionalism, availability, and attention to detail immediately gave us confidence that we had chosen the right company—and he was absolutely right.
Our 4-day safari was simply incredible: two unforgettable days in the Serengeti, one day exploring the breathtaking Ngorongoro Crater, and one day in the beautiful Tarangire National Park. Every day brought spectacular wildlife encounters, stunning landscapes, and memories that will stay with us forever.
What truly made this experience exceptional, however, was our amazing guide, Clement, and our outstanding driver, John. Clement's knowledge, passion, and enthusiasm made every game drive fascinating. He always took the time to explain the animals' behavior, the ecosystem, and the local culture, turning every sighting into a unique learning experience.
John was an exceptional driver. His experience, patience, and incredible ability to spot wildlife ensured that we never missed a special moment. He always positioned the vehicle perfectly, giving us the best possible views and amazing photo opportunities, while making us feel safe and comfortable throughout the entire safari.
Thanks to Clement and John, we were fortunate enough to see the Big Five and so many other incredible animals. Their teamwork, professionalism, and genuine dedication made every day unforgettable. They didn't just guide us through the parks—they created an experience that far exceeded anything we had imagined.
We wholeheartedly recommend Safari Avventura to anyone dreaming of an authentic safari in Tanzania. And if you have the chance, ask for Clement as your guide and John as your driver—they are truly the dream team and will make your safari an unforgettable adventure.
A huge thank you to Enrico, Clement, and John for giving us one of the most extraordinary travel experiences of our lives. We will definitely be back!

Good but added last minute fuel surcharge
Great choice of company overall with knowledgeable guides and helping to tailor the package to suit our budget and places to visit, however the downfall was that they asked for an additional 4% fuel surcharge 3 weeks before we were due to fly out, even though we had already paid the full amount 5 months prior. When I questioned it their response was its because of the recent war price increase, but no other companies were doing this, just this company even though they already are the largest safari provider in the country! When asked for a further breakdown for the charge, they weren't able to provide this, only gave a few numbers against fuel for cars, plane etc, nothing in depth to justify the charge. The original quote already includes the daily fuel charges for your trip. There was no memtion anywhere during the course of planning, booking and paying about this possible extra charge, they hit you right at the end knowing you can't cancel the trip at this late stage and will pay! We already paid in full which was quoted in USD, then another 4% charge of total trip amount, converting to AUD$ is a lot money for us!
Because of this i won't be choosing them again

A professional and safe driver who will get you to where you need to go but also accommodative!
Sam and Yusef are some of the best drivers that I have ever worked with! They are so kind, professional, and VERY safe! Not only do they try to accommodate all of the asks we had, but they did it with a smile! Also, need some good tunes on your drive? They are on it!
