The tour operator is very competent in arranging tour as well as high regard for safety issues
The trip was fabulous, well planned by the guide William who was us throughout the journey. The price was fair, all inclusive: accommodation, food, and entrance to all the site

Brenda was simply phenomenal!!!
The tour from Tanzania Choice Safaris truly surpassed my wildest thoughts and expectations!! From the very beginning with working with Brenda, it was seamles. Even when we arrived and went on amazing safari's in the Serengeti and the Nogorogoro Crater. Everyone enjoyed their tour guides which also was a big plus. I would ABSOLUTELY recommend this company for tours in Tanazania. They didn't disappoint one bit. Truly grateful for the entire experience. It will last with me forever!!!!

Great tour guide, king of the safari
The tour was fantastic, the guide worked to our times and interests. There was a great rapport between Raymond and our group. He provided entertainment and was good to bring us to the Maasai village on the last day on the way back to Nairobi.

Highly experienced and great at explaining what we are seeing.
Our trip with Mufasa’s tour was a wonderful experience where I felt our Guid Tony was taking care of us and making sure we where able to see everything the parks had to offer. He made sure to keep a eye out for everything going on in the distant and would take extra time to make sure everyone in the car had enough time to experience what Africa had to offer. Tony provided a very safe and wonderful experience with our large group

Incredible and knowledgeable!
We had Tony, and Tony is THE MAN! Tony answered all of our ridiculous questions, laughed with us at our stressed out mother, and helped us get the best photo opportunities. Tony has a fantastic personality and sense of humor. He's gave us an unforgettable experience.

More than perfect
My father and I climbed the Kilimanjaro with Benson. Organisation more than perfect. At the airport a driver picked us up on time and brought us to Ilburu lodge. The next day at 8 am a Pullman was waiting for us at the hotel. We left and we went at Lemosho gate, to start the climb of Kilimanjaro. It has been a 7 days tour.
We always overnighted in camps, in tends. The crew has been amazing: porters really friendly and they did a great job. They carried a lot of stuff and they've always worked perfectly. Chef was insane. He literally cooked really tasty food at 4000 metres, which isn't obvious at all!
The guides are super professional and skilled. We spoke a lot and enjoyed the time with them.
On the 6th we started the ascent to the summit. Everything went smooth and we reached it, thanks to the crew, the organisation, and the staff of Benson safaris.
Returning back, my father was left on time at the airport and everything went as scheduled.
We have to sincerely thank Benson safaris for this tour. We made and amazing trip, seeing marvellous landscapes and interacting with a lot of people.
I would definitely recommend Benson safaris for this kind of experience. Everything will be great and you will for sure enjoy as much as possible the trip.
Thanks.
P.s. in our crew there was also a women. We deeply appreciated that. It's comforting to see that women are included in this kind of journey.

Tony is the best!
Our experience was perfect from beginning to end. Coordinating with Josef was easy for the whole trip. Tony was our guide and was very knowledgeable on the animals and parks. He really made the trip. He had his hands full with our group and he was a trooper through it all. We had the best time and would definitely recommend them to anyone looking to do a safari. Thank you for a fabulous vacation!

Once in a lifetime!
We are just back from the best adventure in our lives and just can't wait to share it with all our friends! It was colorful, exciting and very fun! We saw many animals, met so many kind people, had so many different experiences... Toni was the best guide we could have - experienced, fun, with bright knowledge of the animals and the parks. The combination of the two parks was not an easy task because we were a lot on the road, but it gave us the opportunity to see the variety of Tanzanias nature. We highly recommend this tour with Tony!

Experienced professionals you can trust
My partner and I did the 18 days safari in Kenya with Australken.
We found it to be a very complete route that serves to give you an idea of ​​what the country is like, however we would only recommend it to people who are used to doing long routes by road, on roads that are not always in good condition, and used to make trips of many days, as it can become hard and tiring.
We really enjoyed seeing the animals, especially the very varied birds, the landscapes and the more wooded areas.
The accommodation (we traveled budget) can sometimes seem too simple at first sight, but the reality is that in almost all of the camps/hostels/guest houses we have been very comfortable and have felt very well treated. They were clean and safe and some of them in spectacular locations.
We would like to publicly show our gratitude to Mrs. Zippy, who has been our interlocutor from the first minute we contacted her, during the trip and when we said goodbye. There are not enough words to describe Zippy: attentive, professional, kind, understanding, decisive... she is the person you would trust to organize any event or trip. Any unforeseen thing that might happen, she solved it instantly and, at all times, we knew that we didn't have to worry for anything. His work is priceless and we wish her the best of luck in life, both professionally and personally.
The other special mention we would like to make is for our cook, Mr. John, who accomplished with the greatest success the difficult task of feeding two foreigners, with foreign stomachs, for 18 days. Not a single day did we have a stomach ache or any digestive issues. He was always attentive to know what we liked and what we didn't like and always tried to make us happy. And not only is he an exceptional cook, but also a very friendly companion, a person who resolves any unforeseen situation, a great expert on birds and nature (he knows his country and its fauna and flora very well) and he also accompanied us in various excursions both on foot through the mountains and by bicycle. An all-terrain worker, always with a smile. We also wish him all the luck he deserves and all our thanks (and thanks for the recipes!)
Undoubtedly, many things can happen on a long trip, there will be unforeseen events, but what we are sure of is that we would recommend everyone to trust Australken.
