Friendly, accommodating, wonderful!
5/5

With COVID-19 restrictions limiting our travel options, my wife and I took the opportunity to visit Africa for the first time with little time to prepare. After thoroughly enjoying Nairobi and Mombasa, we squeezed in our first safari with Benicia. Alfred and his team were so friendly and patient making us feel relaxed and happy throughout the entire process. This was not busy season and with COVID there were not many tourists around, and we were so fortunate to have a self paced and customized experience. The gem in our trip however was our courteous and friendly driver and guide George, who in addition to being extremely knowledgeable and experienced, kept us safe and secure while ensuring we had plenty of time to catch all the sights. We saw the big five including white and black rhinos, and a family of elephants descending out and about our van! Priceless experience I wholeheartedly recommend to everyone! We look forward to coming to Benicia again! Ask for George, and you will also meet the polite, young, armed park ranger Benedict who will keep you safe from hippos as you tour the Mara River where wildebeest make their famous crossings between Kenya and Tanzania past hungry crocodiles. So many wonders!

"Best safari guide you can get"
5/5

Visiting Kenya and finding the right guide for you is like finding a gem in sand. George and Joe were more than a gem. We, I and my missus, Emily, had to leave reluctantly from our 4-day trip. Alfred knew what we wanted and accordingly selected the best guides who could keep us entertained and lively all the way around.
Camping under the stars, learning about a new culture, and the picturesque Lake Nakuru scenery; the whole experience was captivating. But what took our breath away was the unexpected places that George and Joe showed us. It felt like we were looking at pockets of heaven on earth. Tip: One shouldn't miss out on the exotic animals and birds here. They are marvelous.
These trips are routine for the guides, and you won't expect them to have much enthusiasm. However, these two were keeping us on our toes with their infectious energy.
When you plan for a backpacking safari in Kenya, I highly recommend you look for Bencia Africa Adventure & Safaris, and Alfred will take care of the rest. Well, we got to meet with the rest of their team on our way back, and I am sure you will be good in any of their care.

5/5

Tarangire National Park and Ngorongoro in 2 day’s.

Qualified tours are very professional and easy to deal with. Good communication before, during and after our trip.
No hidden fees. All taken care of.

Our guide Mdee was very experienced and talented. We could tell he had found his passion in life.

During our trips at the park he showed respect to animals, people, nature and still manage to deliver Amazing spots for us to enjoy the wildlife without getting stuck behind other safari visitors.

Even when our flight got delayed he made sure that we enjoyed our stay until the very last moment of checking in to KIA.

Thanks Mdee and thanks Qualified tours.
Life memories has been made.

Best Rwanda Tour Guide
5/5

I highly recomment Golden Rwanda Safaris for your visit to Rwanda! From my booking request, they provided fast responses, helped with any questions, and customized my tour as requested. There was clear communication the whole process and no problems.
My tour guide, Taufique, was passionate, knowledgable, and friendly my entire visit. He really strived to make my visit in Rwanda the best possible! He is one of the best tour guides I have had!

Great Safari with Eastco
5/5

My wife and I did a 8 day safari with Eastco in Jan. of this year. The trip was excellent.
We had flown into Kilimanjaro International Airport, and after getting our visas we were taken to our Arusha hotel for the first night. The hotel was right in the middle of town so in the evening we walked around a bit and had a meal at a small Indian restaurant very quiet.
In the morning we were collected by our guide and so the safari started.
Tarangire for two nights staying at Boundary Hill Lodge, what can, we say beautiful views, rooms with a verandah overlooking the plains below and a toilet with a view. Elephants and giraffe were easily seen and in the mornings we could see some antelopes easily, thought they were waterbuck, but who knows.
After two nights here we then went to Ngorongoro and stayed at the wildlife lodge right on the rim again amazing views. The highlight here were the Rhinos seen in the afternoon.
Then followed the Serengeti staying in a tented camp, this camp was perfect after Ngorongoro. We stayed here for 4 nights and were able to catch the wildebeest migration in all its glory.
Cheetah and hyena were the highlight of this part of the trip.
The trip was well set up, guide extremely polite and well versed in both wildlife and idle chatter, this made the trip more interesting as we got a bit of an insight into his family and safari life.
The 4x 4 was well maintained and did the trip without a hitch.
All in all the safari was excellent and I would highly recommend this company.
