Unforgettable 5-day safari experience!!
5/5

When I drove into Tsavo West at the first light of the morning, the sun was peeking out from behind the mountains in the distance. I first saw a giraffe on the road, and a little later a herd of elephants was walking slowly through the dust of the red soil. Guide David has taken us to such places by driving with an experienced hand, where there are fewer tourists and animals can be seen in the natural environment. It was really wonderful to see elephants, buffaloes, and deer drinking water together in the waterhole next to the lodge at night. The food was good, especially the local cuisine.

THREE-DAY SAMBURU SAFARI EXPERIENCE):
5/5

Our visit to Samburu was a unique experience. As we left the hustle and bustle of the city for northern Kenya, the scene changed. Although the roads were a bit rough, the guide was driving with great care. The famous reticulated giraffe was the first thing I saw when I arrived at the Samburu Reserve! Their design is very different. Then I saw the long-necked gerenuk walk right past our car. The most exciting was the Ewaso Nyiro River. There I saw huge crocodiles sleeping together. It was certainly a great opportunity to see nature up close outside the city.

A beautiful moment in nature - Masai Mara
5/5

I'll never forget one moment of our 4 day safari at Masai Mara - we jeep-stopped on the open grassy plains. The scene in front of us was like a living painting of an African safari.

On one side was a large group of topi antelope - their bright brown skin and slender antlers glistening in the sun. Right in the middle, a few zebras were walking comfortably. Seeing these two different species of animals so close was an unprecedented experience.

Our guide Michael is so experienced that he had already guessed that animals could be seen in this place. He stopped the jeep in such a way that we could see from the very front while not disturbing the animals.

The best part of the trip was the luxurious accommodations, the daily timed game drives, and always being informed of what animals were being spotted. The food was also good quality.

Masai Mara reminds one of such a peaceful place, yet it is full of the rhythm of the jungle - how balanced and beautiful nature can be.

Many thanks to Bencia Africa Adventure & Safaris for such an experience.

Wild animals, rugged beauty, and a slightly different experience
5/5

We are two couples participating in this 5 day tour. The best thing is that here it is possible to visit Tsavo West, Amboseli, and Tsavo East - three parks of different character - in one trip.

In Amboseli, right in front of our vehicle, a leopard was hiding in the bushes to catch prey - Peter, the guide, said that it was very rare to come so close. On the second day, we saw two lions sleeping.

When I go to Tsavo West, I feel like I'm alone in the world - the desolate, rocky roads and the occasional ostrich or buffalo.

While walking in Mzima Springs in the evening, I suddenly saw a crocodile - that experience was scary but will be remembered very well.

Alfred was very helpful in finalizing our hotel choices. We stayed at a mid-range camp.
The bathroom was of basic standard, but it was cleaned regularly and kept tidy.

The jeep's open roof design was great for taking pictures, but in some places the roads were so bad that there was a lot of jerking. For those who want to get a taste of the real safari, the perfect choice can be (100%)

A living safari in the heart of the Masai Mara
5/5

As soon as I stepped into Masai Mara, I know I had entered another world. Guide James was very experienced; I could see a group of lions, cheetahs, and giraffes from close. The most wonderful experience was watching the sunrise floating in a hot air balloon - the most exciting moment!

A Perfect Blend of Nature, Wildlife, and Serenity
5/5

My entire safari experience with Bencia Africa was nothing short of amazing. Everything was so well planned that we just had a good time.

On the first day, we had a beautiful picnic lunch set up in the open savannah. The open sky, the serene surroundings and the vast green fields in front - the experience was like a dream. The three of us were very excited, and the food was clean and modest. The atmosphere is like taking a picture - the design of the clouds in the sky, the view of the savannah behind.

The most memorable moment was at Lake Nakuru National Park, when a mother rhinoceros and her baby were slowly crossing the road in front of our jeep. I've only seen moments like this on TV-now it's right before my eyes! The guide kept us at a safe distance and explained everything very patiently.

I also saw many antelopes, zebras, and many birds.

Bencia Africa Adventure & Safaris has made the whole trip a unique experience for us. If you want to get lost in nature, see from the animals, and alsowant a little comfort and care, then this company may be helpful for you.

Trip with friends.
5/5

I went on a 4-day trip with four friends. We have so many memories of traveling together. The guide showed us the places of interest. Masai Mara's game drives were a great experience, and I enjoyed watching the animals in the cool morning air. Accommodation was clean and safe, food was plentiful, and service was as per choice. The atmosphere of Nakuru was comfortable; I was able to capture several moments in the light cloudy sky. This package is suitable for traveling together.

Peace, wonder, and some new friendships amidst the tour.
5/5

The purpose of my trip was not just to visit - a little solitude, a little getting to know new people. And that's what I found on this trip.
The team at Bencia Africa Adventure & Safaris has not only provided a beautiful guide but also a great environment.
In the camp of Amboseli, it was a great feeling to light a fire at night and see the stars in the sky together and hear the call of the dogs beside us.
We went to Tsavo West to see the Shetani Lava Flow - I was impressed by the route of the old volcano.
In the middle of the tour, our group becomes friends with others, and this makes the whole tour more lively.
It wasn't just a trip; it was an experience. Thank you to Benicia.

This was our first trip to Tanzania, and Bencia Africa Adventure & Safaris made our experience memorable. Our guide Raymond was very knowledgeable and friendly and always tried to keep us comfortable. We saw elephants and flamingos at Lake Manyara, and the landscape inside Ngorongoro Crater was like a dream - lions, zebras, and a group of hyenas! The car was perfect; everything was on time. A perfect trip for sure.
