Simply Awesome
My overall safari experience was quite thrilling. The tour guide, Gibson, was quite funny and very accommodating. I was lucky to be part of an awesome group which made the experience much better. The package i took was good for the price and i had a different experience from the previous safaris i've been. Likewise most of activities were done according to the plan stated at the booking site.

Best guides ever
You can travel through Africa, or experience Africa with Shikwaru.
I was also traveling with other organizers in Africa before, but every other trip to Africa I will do only with Shikwaru!
The travel program is not processed stupidly. Wishes are individually addressed to give everyone an unforgettable experience.
Whether land and people or the animals, the knowledge of the guides is impressive. Their contact with the locals is warm and respectful, for the safaris they take a look behind every single stone, making sure not to miss an animal (mostly successful).
With meals, the guides are very resourceful and intent on freshly prepared local dishes. Requests are always considered (thanks again for the lactose-free food).
Thank you for the unforgettable experience!!!

Unforgettable and wonderful experience for the whole family
This was such a great safari experience, it is hard to frame it into words. It started with the negotiation of our special needs around timing and logistics within Tanzania and the Enchanting Safari team created a special arrangement that covered Tarangire, Lake Manyara & Ngorongoro Crater. We had the luck to have James as our driver who speaks fluently German and English and knows the wildlife and good places to go very well. It was always a great balance to see the animals (such as Elephants, Giraffes, Monkeys, Zebras, Lions and many more) from a very near distance without disturbing them. We also got great photographs with the patience and help of James. Our wish was to camp at a lodge and this was also so well chosen, organized and pretty comfortable. The nice talks at the camp fire will be unforgettable as well. Last but not least, the food has been wonderful and our cook Alfred knows the European eating habits and combined this with very tasty and traditional food. To sum it up, Tanzania was one of the best trips I ever made in my lifetime and the safari experience with the whole team and great organization was a very important part of this. My kids and myself would love to come back soon, maybe to see the Serengeti next time.

Great service
Me and my husband booked an excursion to Sheldrick Elephant Orphanage and Giraffe Center with Adventure Travel Kenya.
Jackson was very efficient and always answered me promptly.
Our guide Peter was very friendly and helpful, it was a pleasure to go with him.
I would book again with them and would also warmly recommend them.

Very accommodating for late notice booking.
Just finished three day Bwindi trip with Meddy, on a private tour with my wife and I.
We booked at pretty late notice so a little bit hectic trying to sort payments it but we managed to get everything organised once there and really enjoyed our trip.
Bwindi accommodation was great, Meddy was helpful and looked after us well and the Gorillas are as impressive as expected.
Would be happy to join Meddy and bright Safari again

Very good experience
We spent a very good day with a visit to a Masai village. Our Masai guide was very intersting and very kind. We had a picnic to a very nice place, a little far away.
Jacob is very professional and accomodating.

Wonderful experience
We took the 1 night 2 days trip from Nairobi to Masai Mara National Park. He offered the cheapest rate of all. The car was not fancy and I wasn't expecting so. Both the driver and the guide (Dan and Julius) were great. The tour owner, Amos, also had great communication with me. He provided receipt for everything and communicated promptly for everything. We were able to see all the big animals and had a blast. I highly recommend them.

Peter was amazing!
We were very impressed with Benson Safaris. The people we communicated with beforehand (Benson, Pendo, Viktor) were all very friendly, eager to help, and professional. Pendo and I exchanged SO many emails in the year leading up to our safari and she was always so kind and willing to answer my questions. We were bringing our family of six and neither my husband nor I had ever been to Africa, so we were not really sure what to expect and wanted to make sure we were well-prepared. Pendo was so friendly and helpful. (I just wish I'd had the chance to meet her!)
Peter was the guide we were matched with and we were so pleased. He was incredibly kind (he was amazing with our four boys!) and the knowledge he had about the animals (both land animals and birds), landscape, etc. was so impressive. We would do a safari with him again in a heartbeat! We connected so well with him and were sad to say goodbye!!!
I'd recommend Benson Safaris to anyone!
