Extremely exciting to have dealt with Noel and Clare
My friends and I first met Noel in Abu Dhabi having been refered to him by a friend of mine. We had been planning a trip to Naivasha for a meeting. Noel was kind enough to offer us suggestions that included a visit to Hells Gate National park and an Island at the Lake. In Kenya we met his colleague Clare and we had a great experience as she was able to plan us a proper itinerary factoring in our tight short schedule that included a conference and trips to the park and lake. They had a very comfortable jeep for us and an amazing driver and guide. They always kept intouch. The next time we be doing Kenya again we will be choosing Kiboko as well as referring our friends.

Exceptional Tanzanian Experience
We have now travelled with Aardvark Safaris Tanzania twice, and would do so again without question. The knowledge, experience and great personalities of everyone involved in our trip made it a very special two weeks. The schedule was adapted to meet our group's interests, and our guides never hesitated to take time to allow us great experiences and photos. They did an amazing job of allowing us to enjoy the moment, like stopping to watch elephants bathe, while keeping us remarkably on schedule. Additionally, they went of their way to understand our interests, and ensured that we had the best chance to see what we were hoping to see. There are not enough superlatives to describe the trip and the people. Having travelled with other safari companies, we can say confidently that no other compares!

Cape to cape in South Africa
We've worked with other agents and operators in the past and it's been a long time since we (virtually) met someone who provided such personalised service. From taking on our wishlist and building out the options, through to building our itinerary, and ensuring we were excited and had everything to get on our way, Rose's attention to detail cannot be faulted. We had flight delays which cascaded to missing connections, but Rose's easy and detailed itinerary meant we didn't have to fumble through loads of paperwork and emails just to figure out who to call. It was so easy and her recommended accommodation and safari options were top notch. Such an amazing trip that we're already trying to plan our next....

Amazing.
I have been traveling to many countries for holidays with my family of 3. It was our 2nd time to come to Africa. The first time i visited S. Africa and now am in East Africa. I had no idea how Kenya is and when i contacted 5 tour operators in Kenya, i was given different quotations for Luxury accommodation. We went through all the quotations with my family and finally we settled to Flotish Tours. We organized with them how to pick us at the airport and when we landed there, we were very happy how they welcomed us with even flowers for it was a birthday of my wife. We were taken to the hotel which they had booked us and it was very nice working with them. The next day, we started our trip to Amboseli for 2 days, followed by 2 days Nakuru and 3 days Masai Mara. We were very happy and for what they did and on behalf of my family i say God bless Flotish Tours and their team for the wonderful trip they have made to us. Recommend everyone to use Flotish Tours company, they are very professional.

Perfect organisation, excellent service
We've booked the Gorilla trekking tour in Ruanda with Kay adventure tours and it was perfect!! From the beginning one year before till the end everything worked excellent. We had regular contact to Moureen by e-mail so that we were informed about everything very well. The cooperating company in Ruanda "Thousand Hills Expedition" was chosen perfectly. We were accompanied perfectly through the three days in Ruanda. Moureen booked the flights from Mombasa to Kigali, the stay in the Gorilla Mountain View Lodge and the permits for the gorilla-trekking. When we arrived in Kenya, Moureen met us in our coastal hotel, gave us the flight tickets and informed us about further details. We had permanent contact to her either by whatsapp oder email. We also booked a trip to Funzi Island and a dinner at the tamarind dhow. Here everything worked perfectly as well. At the end of our holiday Moureen came again to our hotel and asked if everything was ok. We only could affirm that. Next year we want to go to Tanzania and we are looking forward to book again the safari with Moureen and Kay adventure tours. We unrestricted can recommend this company!! Loving regards to Moureen and her team.

A magical safari experience from beginning to end; everything well thought out and executed.
I cannot use enough superlatives to describe the perfection of our mother/daughter trip Marianne designed for us! She thought of every detail ensuring both our comfort and safety. The accommodation and food throughout all lodges and guest houses I would rate as a 10 and the people at each location were thoughtful and certainly aimed to please their guests. Our mail concern, being two women travelling alone, were the transfers between our many destinations and they all went smoothly as Marianne saw to that. She was professional and friendly in all our dealings and countless emails offering us suggestions and options to choose from within our budget. The safari lodges she chose for us were beautiful and comfortably appointed and their drivers and trackers ensured we saw eveything possible. Our trip was the dream of a life time and we owe it all to Marianne's careful and meticulous planning. We had a dream and she made it happen!

Ngoko Safaris, why try the rest, these are the best!...... By Far!
From your first contact with Fiona at Ngoko you know you are someone special.
I know of no other company that will go to so much trouble to ensure your trip is exactly tailored to your needs.
Travel with Benson as your guide for your total African experience.
Bensons humour, knowledge & bush skills are second to non, he is lauded by his peers & is one of the top ten African Safari guides in many lists!
We have been traveling to Africa for the past 14 years & in that time I expect we have contacted over 100 safari companies & received many, many quotes & itineraries.
We have specific needs & are very individual in our Safari requirements only Ngoko seem to have listened to these needs & then planned the itinerary to meet our demanding requirements.
Adjustments have willingly been made to fine tune that itinerary for our perfect trip.
WE have repeatedly returned to Ngoko Safaris to arrange our trips to Africa.

Totally Awesome !!
From the moment I found Benson Safaris right through to the moment Benson dropped us off at the airport for our onward flight to Zanzibar, the whole safari experience totally lived up to our expectations and beyond. Before we flew to Tanzania, I bombarded Benson with questions constantly about the safari and he replied almost immediately and answered my questions and put my mind at rest. Not only Benson but our chef and our tour guide Ringo who were with us throughout our safari were amazing. We were so lucky in that we got to see The Big 5 but aside from that, the whole experience was amazing and one we will never forget. Our chef produced meals that I didn't think possible when camping !!! Our tour guide Ringo was a constant source of knowledge and fun ! Would not hesitate to recommend Benson Safaris to anyone ... safaris should be a once in a lifetime experience but if we ever did another safari, I think it would be hard pushed to live up to this one .. Thank you so much Benson and your team :-) :-)
