02 Nights Maasai Mara Safari Package - Mara River Camp
-Mara River Camp website is up to date because our tent was equipped and looked just like their photos.
-I was in awe of the hippos in the river below the deck when we arrived. And the next morning, they were in the river by our tent.
-Bed turn down service, decoration on the bed with fresh flowers, people there to help without asking. My wife said it was just like being on a cruise.
-The food was excellent and plentiful. The chef came to the table every evening to make certain things were to our liking. And the staff took care of our every need.
-Maasai warriors performed one evening while we were having dinner.
-Joe, our driver, went out of his way to find the different species for us to see. Can't list them all without going back through my pictures but lions, elephants, cheetah, leopard, giraffe, zebras and hippo readily come to mind.
-We were added to a pre-booked group of 3 and ended up with 3 new friends.

Perfect!
Everything about our trip with Vayeni was top notch. I had many questions prior to the trip, and Suzanne answered all of them clearly and promptly. She was a real help in the process of putting our trip together. The package she put together was absolutely seamless with an outstanding safari experience and incredible lodging in Victoria Falls. This was a trip of a lifetime for us, and Vayeni provided the perfect experience. I highly recommend you choose them to put your trip together!

Review about Sabi Sabi Game Reserve by Alan Bishop
We saw the big five and even two packs of wild dog. The vehicles are in radio contact so as soon as something interesting is spotted, everyone can make their way there to see. The accommodation was also far more luxurious than in Kruger and the food was infinitely better.

The Best Gorilla Trekking Experience
Together in a group of three, we booked a gorilla trek to the gorillas in Volcanoes National Park with Go Gorilla Trekking. We decided to take a 5 Days PNV Gorillas + Nyungwe Chimps and Michael was good at responding at all our emails. Baker, our guide picked us up from Kigali, Rwanda and led us on a Kigali City tour before we took on the scenic ride to Musanze, Volcanoes National Park. The trek was great and we met the gorillas within just a few hours of trekking. After the trek, we visited the twin lakes and we got to see the neighbouring local communities. The next day we tranfered to Nyungwe Forest having several stopovers! I can say that Baker is the best guide given the different points where we made stopovers that were not even included in the itinerary! We are now looking at visiting Uganda to track the endangered gorillas in Bwindi Forest, another place on our bucketlist.

Review about Kruger National Park by Alan Bishop
South Africa's game parks are not known for scenic beauty and that's not why you go. There is a lot of wildlife and although we saw herds of elephant, we did not see any predators at all. Unless the animals are close to the roads, you don't see them and being such a vast area, we did not see much variety. We only stayed in the south of the park at Berg-en-dal and the centre and north may be different.

Best Trip Ever
Benson Tours is the way to go. He responded promptly to my many emails, customized a package that fit my schedule and budget, and was an all around pleasure to work with. The hotels we stayed in were even nicer than anticipated and our guide, Frances, was a perfect fit for me and my travel and companion.
I found both Benson and Frances to be knowledgeable, professional and a lot of fun.
Once in a life time experience
The safari was amazing. I got to see all the big 5, lions, rhinos, lepords, Buffalows and elephants. The accommodation for the first night was excellent with spectacular views. The food was delisious we had a very good chef called Ali.

Kilimanjaro 6 days
We had an amazing time on the Kilimanjaro trip. Ilmaasai were very friendly and professional from the start. Best price we could find in Arusha and no pressure selling. They helped to hire the right equipment for the climb. The entire team who helped us up the mountain were amazing, very attentive and the guides were fantastic, very patient and encouraging. I would definitely recommend this company for booking any excursions.
It was a fantastic service offered.
