Outstanding experience!

5/5

Benson Safaris was highly recommended to us by a friend--and he was absolutely right. From the first email to Benson, asking about the safari options, to the last day--when he came to see us off and gift us amazing local coffee beans--working with Benson Safaris has been a wonderful experience. As we were planning the trip, they worked closely with us to fit our requests for animals to see but also stay within our budget. Their planning was outstanding--and made the trip so incredibly easy for us. As soon as we exited the airport in Tanzania, our driver (Zab) greeted us warmly and provided us with all the necessary information for the next few days.The 3 days at the park were incredible: Zab shared with us his knowledge about the animals we were seeing, their habits and habitats, stopping along the way for as long as we needed to 'soak' up the views. The accommodations Benson had chosen were excellent: we stayed in the parks, having animals right outside our bungalow or our tent. This was a trip that was not high on our bucket list: but Benson travel and Zab in particular made it the best (and easiest!) trip we have ever taken. Because of their professionalism and exceptional service, we are already planning our next visit to Tanzania. And, as expected, Benson Travel (and Zab!) will be the tour operator we will choose.

The Benson Safari trip was organized incredibly. Their guides are intuitive and committed to giving their guests an amazing trip. This is the second time we used them. And if we ever come back we’ll use them again.

5/5

My husband and I just returned from our safari with Benson Safari, which took place from September 26 to October 7th. From the beginning of my trip planning, which started a year before, Benson and his team made sure that our visit to Tanzania would be unforgettable, and it was. Over the year, I made several changes and asked many questions, and he never made me feel that I was asking too many questions. Benson was always ready for a WhatsApp call when communication through email didn’t seem enough. Ultimately, our trip was beyond my expectations.

We booked an 11-day safari and stayed two nights at each location. We started at Tarangire, then to Ngorongoro, Mara River, Central Serengeti, and ended at Lake Manyara to unwind. Our driver and guide, Liberatus, was the face of Benson Safari and was terrific. He is gentle, patient, and always willing to go the extra distance, literally, for the best sightings. I don’t know how he does it, but we were often the first vehicle at the scene, witnessing nature's drama unfold. Liberatus knew how to position the jeep so that a cheetah jumped onto the hood of our jeep; we watched vultures and storks attack a recently killed zebra, again the first to arrive at this sight. We saw the river crossings and had an excellent view. Over and above the big 5, we love sighting birds. Liberatus was excellent in pointing out the wide variety of beautiful and colourful birds during our safari and gave us the time to take fantastic pictures. Pole Pole was how we travelled, and it paid off. After spending 11 nights with him, he was a part of our family. And we miss him.

Don’t hesitate to sign up for this epic adventure with Benson Safari. Benson and his team will do everything to ensure you will be well taken care of through your safari. They are quick to reply to your questions, patient, and professional. The travel, from airport pickup to safari to dropoff, was seamless, and the accommodations exceeded our expectations. Asante Sana, Benson, for making this once-in-a-lifetime adventure the most brilliant we’ve had. And thank you for the delicious coffee! Reflecting on our journey, we are filled with a deep sense of satisfaction and fulfillment, knowing we've experienced something truly remarkable.

I only wish we could do this again. It’s like being in a real-life Jurassic Park, with breathtaking and awe-inspiring moments at every turn.

What a trip completly Flashed from a lifetime of beautiful experiences with the people,animals accomodations.
how friendly and helpful everyone was. a nation full of wonderful people and a safari full of lifetime experiences.
I can only say if you can, do not wait to experience this once in a lifetime opportunity. Our Guide was also Fantastic
one had the feeling he Knew all three parks like the back of his hand. and spotted Animals that we would have never seen
he also had the talent of knowing where to be at the right Time and always managed to manover so that we always
had a place in the first Row,this was incredible when you are competing with many other travel companys but he was clearly
one of the more respected guides.
Thankyou once again Benson Safaris
