3 unforgettable weeks in Kenya & Tanzania: Mt. Kenya, Mt. Kilimanjaro and much more
Thanks to Chris I spent 3 amazing weeks (Dez 17 – Jan 18) in Kenya and Tanzania for an affordable price. He was always available for any questions and had very good recommendations.
Even if I decided only some weeks earlier to spend my vacation in East Africa, Chris answered very quickly to my emails and planned the whole 3 weeks for me. Chris organized everything, from my arrival at the airport in Nairobi until my departure including transfers, hotels, trekking tours, safaris and national parks. During the three weeks I visited for example:
Maasai Mara National Reserve
Mount Kenya National Park climbing successfully Point Lenana (4895m)
Giraffe Centre Nairobi & Nairobi Safari Walk
Kilimanjaro National Park climbing successfully Uhuru Peak (5895m)
Kibera Slum Nairobi
Lake Bogoria & Lake Naivasha
Hell's-Gate-Nationalpark
Kiambethu Tea Farm at Limuru
Because of my last minute booking Chris asked me to pay the full amount in advance. At the beginning I was very skeptical and suspicious about this, because there are a lot of fake tour operators in East Africa. During my tours I got also to know other tourist which have lost a lot of money sending money to fake tour operators. But Chris made a very professional impression to me. He was always reachable via E-Mail/Phone/WhatsApp and responds very quickly. Therefore I paid the full amount in advance and everything was fine.
All in all Chris was a very good single point of contact for me, because with more than 15 years of experience he knows a lot of people and has a very good network for tours and safaris in East Africa. Therefore he is always able to plan an individual vacation for everybody’s needs and to make your vacation an unforgettable experience.
So I highly recommend Chris for all kind of vacation in East Africa. Hiking, Climbing, Safaris, etc. Regardless of whether a long vacation or only 1 tour. Chris will always find the best individual solution.

They were amazing!
What can I say? Natasha was amazing from start to finish! We decided we wanted to go on Safari in South Africa for our honeymoon so we contacted Natasha at Sun Safaris.
We gave her our budget and she came up with a great holiday for us. She was even ready to book the flights but we had already arranged that.
During the process we had some changes to our budget and we had to make some changes. I spoke to Natasha and she was more than happy to accommodate us and look again for something great.
During the whole process Natasha was attentive and professional. She kept us up to date and remained in contact right up until we were ready to fly. We were not let down by the lodge she chose for us. It was amazing!
I couldn’t recommend Natasha enough! We have been home a month now and we are still wishing we were back there! Thank you so much for everything you did for us. Definitely a holiday we will never forget!

Efficient online contact and booking. Extremely competent guide on animals and nature
For us this tour to Serengeti and Ngorongoro was an adventure for life. The guide was a fantastic animal spotter, he knew where he could find the various species and had very good knowledge about nature and history of the sites. The idea to overnight in tents seemed a bit scaring for us in advance, but proved to be the best way of exploring the animal life in the parks. Also the standard in the tent camps were outstanding.
Thanks to Benson company for giving us this experience!
The communication with the company in advance were excellent, since they had appropriate routines for providing offers and efficient financial transaction practices. The responded rapidly to any questions from our side.

Lesaga Adventure Safari is an agency that I recommend.
We did a safari with Lesaga Adventure Safaris last february. We visited the northern parks: Tarangire, Manyara, Serengeti and the inevitable Ngorongoro crater! Everything was as expected. The parks are wonderful.
I think all companies offer the same visits. But the human aspect is very important, I mean the team. Here, we had pleasant, kind and very serious people in their work.
Thanks to Sylvie, the manager in charge of customer relations, who helped us to build the safari.
Thanks to our guide, Philip who showed us the animals. He gave us time to take the pictures. We had a very good cook Ibrahim. We had a safari with accomodation in camp, it's good because we are close to nature.
Lesaga Adventure Safari is an agency that I recommend.

Good experience and seamless arrangements
Benson has been helpful throughout the arrangement of our safari & trekkinh trips. It took us a while to fix the whole plan and it was well worth it. We would recommend Benson safaris for your coming travel, and in particular, Peter as your safari guide.

Masai Mara tour from Nairobi through the Rift Valley
Our tour guide was very professional. As US citizens traveling long distances in Kenya, our guide took good care of us: protecting us, honoring our needs, and putting us first before his own financial gain. Therefore, I highly recommend this company to any Westerners wanting to travel in Kenya. Excellent company. No hesitation in recommending.

Raymond was an absolutely joy to be around and made my whole trip better.
The tour was expensive since I only did the 3 day Masai Mara. I spent the first day getting there and only had a 2 hour afternoon drive. Then 2nd day was a full day but the last day was a morning drive similar to the first day. Besides the itinerary the driver/guide was absolutely amazing. The reason why this isn’t 3/4 stars is because of raymond. He was an absolutely beast at finding things and I was missing a cheetah and leopard from my safaris and he found them both. We saw 2leopards hunting and it was amazing. Raymond was not only fun to be around but such an amazing person! Really wish he told me it was his birthday.
Overall I think Masai Mara is overrated but Raymond was so amazing that it made the experience awesome

Went to Lake Nakuru and Maasai Mara and saw the Big Five with Expert driver Antony!
We had the most pleasant experience with the expert driver Antony. He made us feel very welcome and took us to Lake Nakuru and Maasai Mara. There, we saw the big five and many more animals. We felt most secure with out driver and we definitely would go on safari again with him!
