Our family booked a safari with Bencia Africa Adventure & Safaris. Alfred was the perfect guide, cook and driver. And all this for a very reasonable and honest price. We can recommend him strongly. Communication went smoothly. He will give you an amazing and safe safari! Thanks Alfred!

Unforgettable safari in Masai Mara!
5/5

Due to trouble with our first tour operator (another company), I took contact with Alfred at Bencia just 3 days before our arrival in peak season. We were desperate to find a tour company that were able to help us with such short notice, and they really did everything to assist us!
All of their own Landcruisers was already booked, so they used their connections and found another car and driver/guide from a third party company, which worked great. Our driver/guide was Bernard, an very experienced guide who took very good care of us.

We spent 2 nights in Mara Leisure Camp, which was excellent! Clean and roomy tents, with a terrace viewing over a small lake and the park.

Once back in Nairobi, Ben from their office joined us to the airport to make sure everything worked out for us. This is a really nice and helpful team!

3 days budget safari to masai mara national reserve
5/5

A nice 3 days safari to Masai Mara with Tony our driver in a 7 seater tour van. Saw the big 5 including reticulated giraffes and the good climatic conditions: good temperatures, no rains.
The nights were well spend in Enchoro Wildlife Camp in a single room with flash toilets and hot showers.
The 3 0f us enjoyed much and we felt like it was a family safari. Our cook John was fantastic in preparing the meals. He was friendly, awesome and sociable. The prices offered by Alfred, tour operator, were fair and I recommend him for that.
It was a nice exploration safari with Bencia Africa Adventure and Safari.

Memorable 8 days 7 nights Kenya Adventure
5/5

Memorable 8 days 7 nights Kenya Adventure

This was my first time to go to Kenya and alone. I just randomly searched online and booked the 8 days safari tour (Nairobi, Sweetwaters, Aberdare, Lake Nakuru, Maasai Mara & Lake Naivasha) in 5 months ago with Alfred, the tour operator. We contact via email and he is good in responding! Benson, also the tour operator welcome me at airport and he helped me to arrange everything. Even he was not on the way to the tour but he knew very well about my route and schedule every day. In the first four days of the tour, only Peter the tour guide (also driver) and me. On the fifth days onward, other people joined together to Maasai Mara. Peter is really funny, friendly and he is very professional about wildlife!! His driving skill is so good too… My camera has not really very long shot lens but we are always so close to the animals and always in good angle! (Even the animals were surrounded by a lot of safari cars!) Thanks Alfred, Benson and Peter!! They are definitely a great team! Thanks for taking care me a lot, let me gained lots of knowledge about Kenya and met good friends in the tour. Hope to see you guys one day again!

Budget safari to Masai Mara
5/5

While our safari was on a budget, the experience was invaluable! The wildlife and the migration during this time of year were truly breathtaking and the customer service of both the driver and the cook (George and George!) were outstanding. We were so fortunate to have a private van and our driver George was knowledgeable, provided us with great views, and even helped other tour groups that were stuck in the mud (we never got stuck - George was clearly an experienced pro).
