From planning to execution Banok was perfect!
5/5

Tour operator, Ben of Banok Safari Tours organized our Kenya tour of 13 days to Amboselli Natl Park, Samburu Reserve, Mt. Kenya Park, Ol Pejeta Conservancy, Naivosha Lake Park and the Masai Mara National Reserve with guide, Willie. I’ve gone on tours with Willie four times now. He is an excellent safari guide who has eyes like a hawk and spots animals so well. Willie knows my interests in big cats like lions, cheetahs and leopards. Banok called Willie everyday to check how our tour was going. They will make any wrong right and their tour price is very reasonable staying at luxury tents and camps. I’m planning another tour with them next year. Thank you Banok and thank you Willie!

Good and Reliable Company
5/5

Me and my Friend went on a nine day trip in Kenya that started in Nairobi. It was supposed to be 8 days but because we had an extra day at the end of the trip, Mr. Benson suggested we make it nine days safari.

We visited Samburu, ol Pejeta sweetwaters, lake nakuru, lake naivasha and masai mara. We had a really great time. Our driver Paul was very great, good communication and knowledgeable about all the areas and the animals. Mr. Benson is a very nice guy, very helpful and quick to response. The land transport were organized and the hotels were more than we expected. The lodges were comfortable and beautiful.

If i go back to Kenya, i would not doubt in booking my safari again with Banok Safaris

Very professional, excellent service
5/5

Everything was perfect from start to end! We were a group of 5 people who planned this trip over a year in advance and we wanted a good safari for 8 days during Christmas season.

Mr. Benson from Banok Safaris was very patient with our requests, providing a very personalized experience. We had a wonderful time visiting Masai mara, lake Nakuru, Amboseli and tsavo west with our guide David who was superb on his Job. Our sightings included a leopard eating a gazelle in a tree, lions eating a zebra, lions mating, White rhinos at Lake Nakuru, Elephant herds, and lots of vultures and other birds and also not forgetting a visit to Natural spring water at Mzima springs.

All hotels were clean and well appointed: hot showers, great food and awesome staff.

We enjoyed a lot our experience. We are planning in returning in Kenya in the future and definitely we are going to contact again Banok Safaris, I also hope to see Mr. Benson and his great team in the future. I recommend Banok Safaris, book with them.

5/5

We had an amazing Honeymoon Safari in Masai Mara. Ben from Banok Safafi made us an incredible offer i couldnt match with my own search. We stayed 4 Days and 3 Nights at Amani Mara Camp, an absolut TOP NOTCH Camp.. expensive but it was definately worth it... the staff adapted everything acording our wishes and the camp is located at an incredible spot with a stunning view in the savanne. Right in front of the camp are about 70 Hippo's in the River and also a few Crocodiles. Foodies will love the amazing 3-4 course menues of high quality food... my wife is vegetarian and i'm a meat lover. As important as the Camp is the Tour guide ... James (A local Massai) drove us with his OPEN SIDED Offroad Land Cruiser through the huge Mara theretory. He was well experienced and knew litterly all spots.. we saw lots of Lions mating, the Lapard and also the Cheetas hunting. Ben also orgsnized us a Fly IN/Out package... which saves you 6hours of exhausting driving from Nairobi to the Mara.. absolutely worth. All in all it was just amazing... PS: Ben is available per Whats App 24/7 to support... and also picks you up from Hotel to the airport... it was a end to end full service package...

5/5

We had a great 5 day family trip/birthday trip to the Sandies Tropical beach, for a very affordable price. Everything was taken care of by the amaizing staff of Banok Safaris, all we had to do is show up, sit back, relax and enjoy the amaizing services at the resort. Surely would recommend their services to anyone.
