We had the most phenominal safari experience with Benson Tours.
We found Benson Tours online. He was very quick to respond to all email. Our luggage didn't arrive from Nairobi (we were coming after touring in South Africa) but Benson himself was extremely helpful. He arranged one of his drivers to go to the airport the very same evening to pickup our bags. All communications with the airline and airport staff was done by Benson. It was a great relief!
Benson put together a great eight day itinerary for us. Our guide/driver, Mr. Goodluck is very knowledgeable and spoke English well. He was very accommodating and answered all of our questions about the country and its animals. Accommodation in all places were superb except for Arusha. There was a mix-up but Benson rectified it by paying for our lunch and dinner on the day of our arrival. All in all the safari was beyond our expectations.
We highly recommend Benson Tours!

Amazing honeymoon !
We had the perfect trip thanks to Benson safaris. The communication prior to the trip was clear and to the point, and the organisation was good all along. We had not picked the luxury accomodation but were still very satisfied with the different lodges and service.
But most of all, what made our trip outstanding was our amazing guide: passionate about wildlife, serious, confident and with a sense of humour :)
Thank you Benson Safaris !

Amazing experience
Everything was good, our drivers/guides (Paul and George) were very friendly and professional from the pick up at the airport to the last day. I absolutely recommend Benson for your experience in Tanzania.

All days were flexible for us and we had also posibility to use tailor made program. Accommondation was romantic, mostly in the middle of national parks. Our food was excelent.
I can strongly recommend Benson Safari Tour, because they are highly reliable. Thank you for great holiday ! Marek & family

Nice safari, hotels and guide !
My mom and I really appreciated our safari with Godson who speaks an excellent french. We saw a lot of animals since the guide was always in contact with the other guides. Hotels were comfortable and food was nice.

An excellent trip from begining to end. Benson and his team were fantastic.
Communication was excellent along with the service. We were looked after brilliantly by our guide Peter and met up with Benson at the end of our safari in Arusha before flying home. I would highly recommend Benson safaris.

Most magical experience of a lifetime
When I first had communication with Benson, I was quite shocked at how fast his response and how professional he conducted his business. I had somewhat of an idea of what kind of places I would like to visit and stay while on our honeymoon, Benson put together an itinerary beyond my expectations with additional suggestions to make our trip that much better. We were blown away on how every little detail was perfect when we showed up in Tanzania. Our guide/friend Frank was the coolest most knowledgeably person. He traveled with us throughout Tanzania, which was great being that we had a familiar face day after day. I really felt like I was in the cool crew when we were with Frank, he knew everyone! Not only that, our jeep was more equipped than any other jeep! The picnic nap folded out when lunching, food more appetizing than the rest of the tourists around , variety of different beverages (including wine :-)) AND outlets to charge our cameras!! Our accommodation for all of the places, Tanzania and Zanzibar were breathtaking. Really all the staff made us feel very welcomed and safe. Again, every detail was on point! Thank you Benson for this trip of a lifetime, I will never forget you, Frack and Tanzania!! A++++++++++

Fun and reliable safari experience
We were five students looking to explore Tanzania- our school used Benson travel so we decided to use it as well. Our 7 day safari (which is really 5 days with travel and transfers) turned out to be perfect. Our guide, Peter, was amazing at spotting animals (sometimes, even better than our binoculars) and made sure that we had a great time while in Tanzania. We went to Serengeti, Ngorogoro crater, Lake Manyara and Tarangere. Our favorite night was definitely in the moving camp in serengeti- we could hear lions from our tent! It was awesome.
Would highly recommend this trip!

Amazing experience with fantastic driver/guide, never to be forgotten
When I talked to Benson he told me he was the kid on the side of the road who wanted to grow up and drive that Safari truck. Well he did and more, he has created a company in his country with fellow Tanzanians and shows it to anyone who wants to view it with gusto. Our driver Peter was fantastic, we at all times were safe, treated with the highest regard, given a wealth of information about everything people, places, landmarks, animals. This trip was never on my bucket list, however because of my sister in law and the Benson Safaris team, it has become a trip of a lifetime.
