WOW!!
We could not have imagined a more wonderful two weeks in Northern Botswana than the safari we experienced with Lucas Tshupo and his team.
From meeting us at the airstrip in Xakanaxa until we parted company after our final breakfast in Victoria Falls, Lucas was with us, and with his team of Musa, Two Metres and Madu, looked after us every minute.
Lucas is a dedicated naturalist who is also an amazing guide and photographer. His passion for the wildlife, people and landscapes of Botswana was evident in every aspect of the safari. The number and diversity of animals and birds that we saw was astonishing and made even more memorable through the detail of background and behaviour that Lucas shared with us. We could not have had a better guide.
His team were wonderful, too. Musa, Two Metres and Madu, who moved our camp so efficiently every three days, made our camping experience so enjoyable: delicious food, the cheerful wakeup call, warm water in the morning and showers in the evening, comfortable beds, beautifully laid tables, our every need anticipated. Add to that the pre-dinner drinks round the campfire with the calls of the bush around us, and then in the morning the night sounds giving way to the birds...
Two excellent boat trips gave us a different view of the animals and the landscape, one in a Moroko in Kwai and one in a motorboat on the Chobe River. The last two days were spent in Victoria Falls in a very comfortable lodge, allowing us to visit the spectacular falls with Lucas.
We will never forget this experience - our first in Africa. Pictures come into the mind: of elephants playing in water, of a leopard in a tree, of lion cubs drinking from a waterhole, of wild dogs rolling in cooling mud, of seven carmine bee-eaters on a branch. And so many other animals and birds that a mere list of everything we saw would be inadequate. They were all around us. The most frequently used expression every day was 'Wow'...
We were so sorry to say goodbye to it all, and especially to Lucas and his team, who gave us this experience of a lifetime. We cannot thank them enough.

Unforgettable safari trip with the best guide
We had the best time with Splendid Vacations in Kenya. The team is responsive, accommodative and patient with our questions when we were discussing the itinerary. Everything during the trip was very smooth. Special thanks to our amazing guide/driver /zoologist/comedian/ photographer/Jack-of-all-trades James. He is an excellent driver able to navigate all sorts of terrains. His knowledge about animals and when/where to spot them is incomparable—we are always among the first batches to arrive at the scene of elephant crossing, leopard in the bushes, or even the hunting scene! James takes marvellous photos, and I learnt that he takes a special interest in photography. On the last day, we were stuck in traffic because of a protest. Just as we started to get worried about missing the flight, amazing James found a countryside road to get us out of the traffic! James is indeed full of surprises.

Safari in Mikumi
My safari in Mikumi was a fantastic experience. The park is full of wildlife, and I was lucky to see elephants, giraffes, lions, and more. What made the trip truly special was our driver – professional, safe, and very knowledgeable. He spotted animals I would have missed, shared interesting facts, and made the whole journey enjoyable. Highly recommended!

Steve Made Our Tanzanian Journey Truly Extraordinary
Our safari in Tanzania was truly unforgettable, and the greatest reason for that is Steve. He was not only our guide, but very quickly became a genuine friend. Steve is a man of great knowledge and depth—well-read, thoughtful, and often sharing with us reflections that felt almost philosophical. Every day, he found a way to inspire us, reminding us not only to look at the beauty of nature but also to reflect on life itself.
What we admired most was the balance he created: giving us space to enjoy the journey in our own way, while at the same time making us feel completely safe, cared for, and supported. He worked tirelessly to make sure we saw exactly what we hoped to see—and more. Thanks to him, we witnessed the Great Migration multiple times, including the breathtaking river crossings that left us speechless.
Even when challenges arose, such as car troubles on the road, Steve remained calm and resourceful, solving everything with composure and skill. We joked that without him, we might not have made it out alive—but the truth is, his professionalism and dedication gave us absolute peace of mind at every moment.
This journey gave us countless unforgettable memories: the wildlife, the landscapes, the laughs, the sunsets—but above all, it gave us the gift of Steve’s company. He is someone of true quality, with warmth, intelligence, and integrity, and we are so grateful to have met him.
We sincerely hope to stay in touch and one day have the chance to welcome Steve and his family in Taiwan. Thank you, Steve, for making our Tanzanian adventure one of the most meaningful and memorable experiences of our lives.

This agency adapts to your individual needs.
The communication was excellent – quick responses and clear answers to all my questions, including detailed information about the tour. The transfer was very well organized, and the food included in the tour was delicious. I felt well taken care of, as all my requests were fulfilled and the staff were very kind and attentive.
I booked a 3-day Chobe safari tour where the guides really tried to show us everything – an experience not to forget. Overall, a great experience!
