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

True cultural experience

5/5

Thank you, Benson and team! My family and l travelled to Lake Eyasi and Tarangire with Benson Safaris Tanzania and we had a brilliant trip.

Our guide was fun, full of knowledge and jokes, and very patient with the kids and happily answered all their questions and requests for a bathroom break! In Lake Eyasi we also had a local guide who was great fun, full of energy and shared so much information with us. Time with the Datoga tribe was a once-in-a-lifetime experience and the highlight of our safari. If you have kids who love culture and running around in the bush - do not miss out on Lake Eyasi! It's an early morning, but 100% worth it.

Tarangire was amazing, and an elephant lover's dream. We also saw giraffes, zebra, lions and smaller animals. The lunch lookout was beautiful and it was great to spend some time out of the car. We were even able to buy an ice cream!

Fortune in the office found accommodation for us in family rooms, so we were able to stay together, and both lodges had pools, which the children enjoyed. The food was family-friendly and the staff would make dishes requested by the children! The vehicle was spotless and we even had a cooler box with our favourite drinks. You thought of everything and made every moment a joy, thank you!

I highly recommend Benson Safaris Tanzania. They made travelling with young children so easy and we can't wait to explore Zanzibar with them next week.
