Great budget safari
I was planning a trip to Africa on a pretty short notice with some tight scheduling requirements, and Bujo was one of the few tour operators that worked with my schedule! Specifically, I was coming in early in the afternoon, and had two full days before starting my Kilimanjaro trek, and Bujo was one of the few operators that offered me any sort of activity when I landed. He was able to organize a solo night safari to Lake Manyara, which was quite interesting! The other two days I did Tarangire and Ngorongoro crater as a group safari, which were quite interesting. Being a budget safari, I stayed in a camp near Lake Manyara, which was actually quite reasonable and nice, with a whole glamping tent for myself with locks, mosquito netting, beds, etc., as well as showers and provided meals. The group tours were in a shared Toyota Land Cruiser and were quite fun (though the boxed lunches were only okay). Bujo was very responsive throughout, and all logistics were very smooth, including airport pickup and hotel drop off at the end. Highly recommended!

The BEST Tour Guides In Tanzania!
I took the Marangu Village Culure and Coffee Tour on June 16th 2019.
Main points:
- always on time
- very polite tour guideswho are knowledgable about the country
- very accomodating to any needs you have
- fascinating Chagga tour, with excellent coffee (from someone who has tried many coffees and never liked any except French Vanilla)
- refreshing hike to Kilasia Waterfall
- free wifi if needed
- photographers on demand if required
Full review:
I was immediately emailed after booking the tour to confirm my pickup location, after which we confirmed the pick up time for 8:30. It was a solo tour although I thought it would have been a group, and being a young woman with two male tour guides I was apprehensive at first. However, their personalities and nature shone through immediately, and I felt at ease in minutes. They arrived on time, and were very courteous and polite. During the car ride to our first destination (Mt Kilimanjaro Park), they allowed me to stop briefly and take some photos in a field of sunflowers.
Bujo asked about my other vacation plans, and then I proceeded to try to hire them as drivers the next day. Bujo offered to call my tour guide for details, and it was then he was informed that the guide wanted me to pay them extra for the tour I had already paid for online. Bujo was doing a hot springs tour the next day and offered to let me join, but I insisted that I wanted to do a day trip to Tarangire. So while we drove to Mt Kilimanjo Park, Bujo called around to all the tour operators he knew and got me on the tour I wanted for the next day! He then let me tether off his phone to cancel my booking with the previous operator (and took me to the new operator after the tour was completed so that I could pay for the tour).
When we arrived at Mt Kilimanjaro Park it was very cold! (I am from Trinidad and Tobago) I was wearing latex tights and a vest, even with my jacket on I was still very cold, this is just a note in case you are also used to a warm climate. This was very informative, and I learned about the first men to climb Kilimanjaro, as well as other facts about the mountain. After a tour of the park area, we went outside to the souvenir shop look around. Then my guides told me they would take me downtown after our tour to get souvenirs because these are pricey. This was a great tip because I wasn't sure of how things were supposed to cost.
Next stop was Kilasia Waterfall! This was a difficult hike downwards, mostly because the paths were not easy to walk on. However, I had one guide in front of me and one behind me, always ready to assist when needed. They also went at my pace which was great. I wore hike shoes with lots of grip, while Bujo was wearing dress shoes, however I was the one who slipped a few times, so perhaps how you experience this hike depends on how often you hike and where. When we got to the bottom, we got a view of the waterfall, unfortunately we were not able to cross the river and hike to the top of the fall because on this day the river was very rough and so it wouldn't have been safe to cross. The hike up was much more demanding than the way down. According to the guides, this hike was the equivalent of a day hike on Kili. When we made it back to the top, I had the opportunity to hold chameleons. (this is a service offered by some villagers, and they expect a tip).
The last tour stop would be the Chagga Village. Before we began we had lunch. It was quite a lot, and as hungry as I was, I was only able to eat a little bit. Our guide there was a young lady named Amy, very soft spoken and polite. At this point I was joined by three travelers from Holland who were on tour with another guide. We learned about the Chagga history and present situation with the Maasai, the Chagga houses, the Chagga caves, and how the Chaggas made coffee. I was able to participate in the grinding and sifting parts of the process of coffee making. We had a cup of coffee, chocolate, and biscuits. The coffee was amazing! You then had the option of purchasing coffee either grounded or the beans.
The tour officially ended at 4pm.
However, three things happened afterward. I really wanted to get sunflower seeds to take home. Bujo called around to see if he can locate them. We also passed by a local market to look for them. I was also taken to the location of my Tarangire tour operator. Finally, I was taken to "Muungano Makonde Arts & Carvings Tingatinga" to look for souvenirs. The guides were very helpful by informing me of good prices of items, and ensuring that the locals gave me proper prices, and change.
I had such an excellent experience with them this day. Their service was above and beyond, I could not believe it. I hired them to take me to the bus stop on the Tuesday. Bujo was my personal host while I was in Moshi, making many calls on my behalf to locals as needed and ensuring I got to where I needed to be safely. AND YES, I did get sunflowers, at no cost!
Finally, Bujo gave me an excellent tip which I must share: it is better to book directly through the local tour operators, rather than through online services.
I recommend doing any tours with these gentlemen!

wonderful experience
Bujo was super efficient in responding to queries, reassuring and extremely helpful in the planning stages. He was just as quick when we met him on arrival at airport .All accommodation out-shone our expectations. The Safari experience could not have been better. Mainly down to our guide and driver who seemed to instinctively know where to head to get the best views & was knowledgeable and enabled us to see The Big Five when many other people we encountered hadn’t.
This was our first visit to Africa and first safari. It all ran like clockwork and we truly felt cared for by Benson Safaris.
DO NOT HESITATE TO USE THEM. YOU WILL BE GLAD.
