A perfect experience for me and my family. This is an exceptional company to travel with!
We really had a perfect experience from beginning to end. Lion King was very helpful as we decided on the itinerary and timing. They selected great accommodations and the trip cost was quite reasonable, especially for a private safari. The airport transfers couldn't have been easier. Our vehicle was great, although we learned that EVERY operator uses the same type of vehicle (a modified Toyota LandCruiser). The most important aspect of the trip was the quality of the driver/guide. Ours was Oswald and he was exceptional - friendly, accommodating, and highly knowledgeable of the geography and animals. He was very skilled at spotting animals, we saw tons! Since we were traveling with a child, I particularly noticed that he was a very calm, patient and safe driver. From beginning to end Oswald was laser focused on giving us the best possible experience, he was a real pro. We chose Lion King because of their amazing reviews, and I am now very pleased to be writing one myself.

Benson Safaris makes it so easy from booking your safari up until the time you depart for home
Right from the time we first contacted Pendo at Benson everything was handeled in a prompt and professional manner. Pieta our tour guide was the best. We had many laughs and many animal sightings on our safari. He is very good at what he does and all the drivers work together to give their guests the best experience possible. You should be proud of the tours you give. The tent camps were very well managed and the service from everyone was ecceptional. The wild life is amazing and right at the side of the road. It felt like being in a Nat. Geo. program. The abudance of wild life is almost hard to comprehend but there they are. Had one of the best times of our lives thanks to every one at Benson.

Excellent support and service
We travelled to Botswana and Zimbabwe. Everything went perfectly. We felt very well advised beforehand on what to expect, always received prompt replies and felt in good hands. We started our tour in Victoria Falls and from being first met at the airport we had seamless transitions and transfers from camp to camp and bush airstrip until being finally met by a concierge at our end destination in Maun checking on our arrival and how things had been. The holiday of a lifetime! Amazing experience and highly recommended agency.

Perfect in every way.
Cuan McLaren answered our questions immediately, understood exactly what we wanted, and provided the perfect private safari two-week tour. We asked for small, non-luxurious camps what would bring us closer to an authentic safari experience. We got exactly that! The camps were impeccable with gracious hostesses/hosts and managers, knowledgable guides/game spotters, excellent meals, and wonderful dinner conversations with others in the camps.
Transitions from one camp/country to another by plane, boat, van were seamless! African Ubuntu Safaris is the best run company around.

Unforgettable Safari
Amazing experience.
When booking, Shaheen was very kind and professional in organising the tour according to our needs (arranging also the pickup from our hotel).
Arun, the guide, then made our safari unforgettable. He satisfied any curiosity about animals and wildlife in the park. His knowledge about bush’s life and animals is outstanding. Thanks to Arun, we spotted a number of animals, even the rare black rhino!!! The tour was absolutely exciting and at the same time relaxing.
Highly recommended!!
Thanks Arun and Shaheen!!!

Truly enchanting
We went on a camping safari to serengeti, ngorogoro and tarangire and were really happy with enchanting safari: the communication with the office as well as the overall organization were simply perfect even though we approached them on short notice.
We also had a very experienced and nice guide, who took care of us in every respect. Enchanting provided luxury tents, sleeping bags and mattrasses and the guide even got us torches when we arrived poorly equipped for the nights at the campsite. Altogether it was simply great!

Top notch planning and organization made for an unforgettable trip!
Had the most amazing trip trough Kenya organized by Charlie’s Travels! The expectations were so high at some point I thought it might never live up.. but instead the whole trip went above and beyond anything we could have imagined!!
Highly recommended!!!

Nature Journalers: taking it slow and deliberate, time to observe and record; knowledge from guides!
As a group that had come to Tanzania to journal and record in words and images our experiences, Face of Africa Adventures allowed us to have the trip we all had dreamed of. A slow and easy pace, taking the time to stop and let us observe and record and paint, journal, photograph as we needed. We saw so many things that others passed by! The drivers/guides provided wonderful information, not just identifying what we were observing, but giving us background stories and information, anecdotes and lore. I have always wanted to go on an African Safari, but part of me felt it could never be on my terms: that slow easy pace to really see and experience the wonder of this land. Face of Africa Adventures turned out to be an exemplary safari company that made a dream come true!

fantastic trek
Kilmanjaro trekking has always been among my wishes and Gypsy made it all true and wonderful.We came on a recommendation from a friend and we couldn't wait to have the great experience.Firstly Dida (The manager) was very welcoming and was there on time at the airport to pick us.She later introduced us to her whole team and they took care of us and gave us all the details.
where should I start?our guides were very good and very attentive.They taught us many things about the mountain,the climate,flowers and also the altitude.They were constantly checking on us and went extra step to ensure that we have a great experience.They felt like family and the food was very tasty and freshly prepared.
II am really glad that my trek was very good .We trekked through machame 6days and added 3nights of safari to the National parks.The Gypsy team is well organized and I highly recommend this company for its best service.
