Extremely efficient, responsive and professional.
Visited Nyungwe and Volcanoes National Parks in Rwanda with three grandchildren. An exhilarating and wonderful wildlife experience. M.Taufique was our guide who contributed substantially to the fun and excitement of the trip. The quality of the lodges was “top drawer”. The quality of the safari company could not be improved upon. Memorable.

Absolutely brilliant
We had an excellent safari from start to finish. The communication beforehand was really good and kept us at ease to know that all was organised and planned.
The pick up from the hotel and drop off at another location was no problem. It was our anniversary and we were presented with a beautiful bunch of roses.
The accommodation we stayed at we outstanding and the food was above any expectations we had.
The safari days were never a disappointment. We saw every animal possible. Our guide Kelvin was a true gentleman and somehow always managed to get as close to the animals as he possibly could. His knowledge and interaction with us was excellent.
We had a trips of a lifetime and have come away with so many memories that will never leave us. We will definitely recommend your company to others
Thank you so much for making it so special for us

Outstanding Service from Start to Finish – Highly Recommended
My partner and I traveled from Kigali to Bwindi Forest for a gorilla trek with Richard from Zamunda Travels, and the experience exceeded every expectation. From our very first communication, Richard was professional, responsive, and incredibly knowledgeable. He took care of every detail of the trip — visa guidance, border crossing logistics, park permits, accommodation, transportation, and even making sure we received our gorilla trekking certificates. Having someone so organized meant we could simply enjoy the experience without worrying about logistics.
Richard was punctual, friendly, flexible, and accommodating throughout. He's an excellent driver, which made the journey comfortable and stress-free, and he shared fascinating insights about Rwanda, Uganda, local culture, wildlife, and the surrounding areas along the way. His passion for what he does really shines through. The gorilla trek itself was unforgettable, and Richard played a huge role in making the entire experience seamless and enjoyable. More than just a guide, he was wonderful company throughout the journey. Whenever friends or family visit me in Rwanda, Richard will be the first person I recommend. If you're considering a gorilla trekking adventure or any tour in the region, I cannot recommend Zamunda Travels and Richard highly enough — exceptional service, outstanding value, and a truly memorable experience.

Michael was fun, knowledgeable and showed us ALL the animals!
We learned about Kenya and some of its history, and Michael was also able to share great information about the animals as he drove us around the park. We laughed a lot (especially at the opportunistic baboons who pulled off a heist), and got up close to so many animals. The zebras were my personal favorite!

Amazing trip and unforgettable wildlife encounters
We had an incredible safari experience from start to finish. The itinerary was well organized, the lodges met our expectations, and everything ran smoothly throughout the trip.
A special mention goes to our driver, Libe, and our guide, Daniel. Both clearly have many years of experience and know the parks so well that it sometimes felt like they had a GPS built into their heads! Thanks to their remarkable spotting skills, we were able to see an amazing variety of wildlife, including animals that are often difficult to find. May God preserve that eyesight for many years to come!
Daniel speaks very good Spanish. He was able to explain the animals, landscapes, and local environment clearly and answer all of our questions throughout the trip.
Even in the busier parks, they knew how to avoid the biggest crowds whenever possible, making the experience more enjoyable. They were always friendly, attentive, and genuinely concerned about our well-being, adapting to our needs along the way.
We would happily recommend this safari and especially our guides, who played a huge part in making this trip so memorable.

A dream safari
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A dream safari! Exceptional staff, they literally spoiled us!We had a wonderful 4-day family safari in June with Wakanda, and it was a flawless experience from start to finish.Even before our departure, the customer support from Italy with our coordinator Giulia was extraordinary: welcoming, super helpful, and incredibly responsive. She answered my every question—even the most random ones—literally in less than a second!The punctuality at hotel pickup was fantastic. That’s where we met Justin, our guide for the entire trip, who immediately welcomed us with some very thoughtful welcome gifts. The jeep was equipped with every comfort, including water and various drinks always available. Justin is an incredibly knowledgeable guide, both about fauna and flora: he answered all our questions, even the most specific ones, with great professionalism.A special shout-out goes to the head chef, Moses. A young man with extraordinary culinary skills: from breakfast to dinner, he delighted us with true gourmet dishes.They truly spoiled and pampered us at every moment. A heartfelt thank you to the entire amazing staff at Wakanda for making this family trip unforgettable! We highly recommend them to everyone with our eyes closed.

A very efficient, friendly, comfortable and perfect journey
The four of us went to the African-Kantan Ring Road for 10 days this time. For some reason, it was a temporary idea, so the plane took off on the 11th and did not start looking for a group on safari booking until the 4th.
Because of the tight time, the Splendid Vacation we were looking for replied to me by email soon after my consultation. I added their WeChat at 4 o'clock local time in Kenya, and they gave me a very detailed and exquisite quotation at 9 local time in Kenya. It's so fast that I'm very shocked.
Our trip went well. The hotels were also clean, beautiful and comfortable. The speed of booking hotels by the ground pick-up agency was also very fast. Later, they upgraded our accommodation. I am very grateful to them. These hotels are so beautiful that I have found a sense of leisure.
In addition, the guide Gabriel is very friendly, patient and has good eyesight. The second guide, Jackson, is a guide with about ten years of experience. He is very careful about finding animals. He communicated with us very smoothly and friendly, and also took us to find two leopards who only sleep in trees. They gave me a very Perfect experience.
In general, I am very grateful to the Splendid Vacation. On the one hand, their quotation is very fast, the hotel they stay in is also very good, and the proportion of deposit payment has also been reduced a lot. We use WeChat to communicate, which is very efficient.

We won the safari lottery
We had an amazing time on our safari with African Serengeti tours having Peter, as our guide, and Pastory, capturing unforgettable moments. We experienced very prompt and clear communication whilst organising this experience, especially when doing this all the way from New Zealand.
Peter made sure we were comfortable at all times, well educated and got everything we wanted out of our trip.
I can’t recommend this experience enough, truly exceptional.

Well organized and flexible with itinerary to suit tourists
Very well organized. All bookings were done on time and with the customer requirements considered
Timing was good for each daily start of safaris as we were well rested after previous day
Excellent accommodation to start the tour at Sharuu Residency at the foot of Mount Kilimanjaro
More attention needs to be paid to safety while driving especially through roads such as mountain passes (e.g. Ngorongoro)
Hot water unavailability at some of the lodges was a concern. To be checked with providers
