Wonderful experience. Our guide Tom did a good job, we saw elephants, giraffe, buffalo, lion and many more animals. The hotel was amazing.

Absolutely amazing, it's a definite. Soloman collected us promptly, he was friendly, safe driving, full of knowledge, chatty, spent 2 days with him on safari, even had the pleasure of seeing the lions, from his prompt response from his colleague. Amazing from start to finish. Would definitely recommend this if your visiting kenya, we were with another couple and a mum & son, made the experience that bit more special as 6 sets of eyes are better than 4. Thanks soloman we had the best time.

Very well looked after by our guide. Only fault was how the shop we stopped at on the way who tried to extort money. Wanted £400 for a painting, bought one at our hotel for £35. Pointed out all local features on way. Very knowledgeable about wildlife and pointed out stuff we would have missed.

We booked this tour on arrival at our hotel so we check out prices locally etc and were really pleased. We booked for pickup, safari, one night stay at Salt Lick Lodge and return. The price was excellent when compared to others. We were picked up on time very early and met our first driver. We were to change driver at our first stop (Kilimanjaro cafe and craft shop about 2hours into the 4 or so hour journey) as all other guests in our group were Italian and it was easier for us and everyone else to go with a fully English speaking group. We were glad we did as the four young Polish ladies we ended up travelling with were great travel companions. Our new driver, Stevie, was friendly and knowledgeable and judged the group really well...not overwhelming us with info and allowing us to take it all in and rest when necessary. Our first safari drive happened soon after we'd collected our keys for Salt Lick Lodge at the sister lodge at Taita Hills. Taita Hills lodge was stunning and we were able to lunch there before going to our second safari and check in at Salt Lick, our home for the night. Food and water is included but drinks at the lodges are not. However, they are extremely reasonably priced and you are not ripped off. Food was plentiful, with lots of choice and delicious at both lodges. The safaris themselves were great. We did two on the first day and then and early start for a third the next day before breakfast and check out. We saw lions, zebra, antelope, buffalo, a range if birds and of course elephants! It was amazing. The everything except for the lions come regularly to drink at the waterhole at Salt Lick so dont worry if you miss them on the drives. Salt Lick is beautiful with comfortable rooms, great views and a very chilled out feel. We slept very well! Our return journey took in another lodge and drive in a different part of the area before lunch. Again a good array of animals but this area was less busy and seemed to be smaller and less well kept. We drove from there and then transferred again at the Kilimanjaro Craft shop (where you can of course pick up souvenirs!) to our original driver for the 2 hour drive to our hotel. The transfer landrover was a bit shabby and some belts did not work. That said the safari landrover driven by Stevie was immaculate, comfortable and safe - another reason we were glad to be looked after by him for the majority of our trip. 2 days, 1 night was enough for us and we got to see everything we'd hoped to. Thank you to Pollman Tours for this experience and in particular Stevie who looked after us so well (mama and papa!) Highly recommended tour.
