Where every moment becomes memorable..!!
The 2-day 1-night Amboseli safari from Nairobi was truly a memorable experience. Getting so close to nature while being away from the hustle and bustle of the city was a unique experience. Our driver and guide were very friendly and experienced. He took us to the right places at the right time so that we could see elephants, lions, leopards, giraffes, hippos, and even wildebeests up close. The view of Mt. Kilimanjaro covered in clouds was truly unforgettable! The most amazing moment was when we saw a large group of elephants as the sun rose, and behind them stood a huge.
We stayed in a mid-budget lodge, which was located inside the park. From the lodge, we could see the animals roaming the open plains right from the windows. The food was delicious, and the service was simply excellent. Even though this was a short safari, the experience will be one of the best memories of our lives. For those who are short on time but want to see nature up close, this is a perfect tour. Many thanks to the Bencia team.

Elephant kingdom in Amboseli and a three-day jeep adventure in the shadow of Kilimanjaro..
As we set out from the hustle and bustle of Nairobi, only one thought crossed my mind - spend a few days in the midst of nature in Amboseli National Park, and if the mood is good, the snowy peaks of Kilimanjaro can also be seen!
I loved the private safari, and Bencia Africa Adventure & Safaris did just that. The car arrived on time, and the driver and guide, Joseph, were very sincere and experienced. On the first day itself, we saw a huge herd of elephants, who were walking slowly on the dusty path together - that scene still floats in my eyes.
My stay was in a beautiful lodge - quiet, comfortable, and surrounded by greenery. The food was excellent - a great mix of local cuisine and Western dishes.
Every morning and afternoon, Joseph would take us out on a game drive. I didn't know how to fly when I saw hyenas, cheetahs, giraffes, and colorful birds". One evening the guide said," "Keep your eyes on the left,"" and what a surprise - a family of lions was lounging comfortably on the side of the road"!
The best moment was in the morning, sitting with coffee in hand and looking at Kilimanjaro. The top of the mountain was slowly glowing with golden light. It was one of the most peaceful moments of my life.
Those three days were like a dream. Bencia Africa's team has designed the entire experience to perfection. If you want to experience the real beauty, wildlife, and pure nature of Africa for once in your life, then choose this 3-Day Amboseli Jeep Safari-Tie.
I'm sure I'll be back - maybe in another park, but the guide and the company will be the same: Bencia Africa Adventure & Safaris.

The perfect blend of wildlife, nature, and peace.
I had a wonderful 7-day trip to Kenya. The tour started from Nairobi, then went around Lake Naivasha, Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru, and finally Amboseli National Park, Every Place was a different experience.
Lake Naivasha was a peaceful paradise for me. We had the opportunity to stay at the Lake Naivasha Country Club, and to be honest, it was the perfect place to relax and unwind. Sitting on the bank of the lake, listening to the chirping of the birds, time seemed to have stopped. When I saw the pelicans and hippopotamuses so closely on the boat ride, it felt like I was in the middle of a documentary.
Masai Mara was the highlight of the trip! I saw numerous lions, elephants, giraffes, and even cheetahs up close. Our guide was very knowledgeable and explained everything to us.
The experience of seeing pink flamingos and rhinoceroses in Lake Nakuru was memorable. The last days were spent in Amboseli; the sight of elephants in the background of Kilimanjaro became a picture.
The entire trip was of high quality - from the vehicle, guide, food, and accommodation. Bencia Africa Adventure & Safaris organized the entire trip very efficiently.

an extraordinary experience of the amazing beauty and rare wildlife of northern Kenya
I took part in a 3-day Samburu Safari with Bencia Africa Adventure & Safaris, and honestly, the experience was beyond our expectations. Our guide was very experienced and very well explained about the animals and the environment. We felt safe, comfortable, and well-organized throughout the trip. The Samburu region was quite different—much less crowded, more wild, and with a quietness of nature. It is a unique experience to get a chance to see special wildlife such as the reticulated giraffe, gerenuk, and Grevy's zebra. It was really fascinating to see crocodiles along the Ewaso Nyiro River and enjoy the sunset in that environment. I must say, if you want to taste the lesser-known but extremely rich nature and wildlife of Northern Kenya, then this 3-day Samburu Safari will be an excellent choice for you..

Unforgettable experience in Tsavo West, Amboseli and Tsavo East!
We recently booked a five day Tsavo West, Amboseli, and Tsavo East safari through Bencia Africa Adventure & Safaris, and it was simply amazing!
Our trip began in Mombasa, and from there it was like entering a new world. The vast savannah of Tsavo West the amazing Mzima Springs, and the presence of countless wildlife amaze us. After reaching Amboseli National Park, the view of Kilimanjaro made our experience even more dreamy. The view from the huge herd of elephants, zebras, giraffes, and lions here was truly incredible. Then a group of elephants roaming on the red soil in Tsavo East looked like a picture!
Our guide explained in detail about each animal and their behavior; he was very efficient and knowledgeable. Every moment of the safari was enjoyable, and everything was so well organized that we did not have any problems..

Incredible 3-day Amboseli Safari - Great scenery and wildlife experience!
Recently I went on a 3-day Amboseli Jeep safari from Nairobi; the whole trip was beautifully organized from the moment I left the city, and it was an unforgettable experience. We stopped at some nice places. And the road trip to Amboseli was also wonderful.
We opted for the private safari and stayed in a wonderful lodge. The lodge staff was hospitable, the food was delicious, and the whole atmosphere was ideal for relaxing after a very peaceful day of exciting game drives. From where a beautiful view of Mount Kilimanjaro could be enjoyed.
Amboseli is famous for its huge elephant herd, and we saw the elephants up close, moving slowly against the backdrop of Kilimanjaro—a truly magical moment! The most interesting aspect of the safari was the game drive. In addition, we saw lions, cheetahs, giraffes, zebras, and numerous colorful birds. Our guide was excellent; he was very experienced, patient, and ensured that we had the best photo opportunities.
Amboseli's sunrise and sunset were like a dream. When the golden light was spreading across the entire landscape and the wildlife was moving around silently, the moment was truly heart-touching.

Hell's Gate and Lake Nakuru Safari-an unforgettable experience!! 😍😊😊
All of this was really great! Starting the journey from Nairobi, visiting Hell's Gate and Lake Nakuru National Park, every moment was thrilling and amazing. The breathtaking scenery and cycling experience at Hell's Gate National Park was quite different. It is indeed a rare experience to see wild animals on high cliffs, hot springs, and open wilderness. Then a flock of thousands of flamingos and the movement of rhinos in Lake Nakuru was a sight to behold. The 4x4 Land Cruiser Jeep was undoubtedly the best for the game drive, giving us a great travel experience. Night camping was also great—the sky-high stars and the tranquility of nature made the whole experience even more exciting. All in all, it was a great trip! This is definitely an ideal trip for those who love adventure travel in the midst of nature and wildlife.

Don't hesitate, Just go!
Great Company!!
went solo to a 3 day safari to Masai Mara (Budget). Communication before the trip was detailed and fast, and although it's a joined tour, they are very flexible at customizing the tour to help with your travel plans- with various lodging options, pick up/drop off points which are not necessarily Nairobi, and adding game drives. So you get great guides (ours was Jeff), very trustworthy and helpful company (I communicated with Alfred- who was amazing) and an almost personalized budget join safari to one of the most amazing NP.
I strongly advise adding another game drive on your last day, to maximize the sightings in this wonderful park ( I was lucky enough to see a group of 5 cheetahs, the 12 lioness pride preparing to hunt, numerous lions, hyenas, jackals and of course elephants, impalas, topi , zebras and giraffes- all with young. Great sightings of interaction and play).

A memorable safari experience in the wild beauty of Masai Mara Lake Nakuru!!
The mesmerizing sight of numerous flamingos Masai Mara at Lake Nakuru touched the heart. Also, the experience of seeing the black and white rhinos up close was remarkable. During the safari, I also saw lions, buffaloes, elephants, and giraffes, which made the experience even more thrilling. The moments of sitting by the campfire in the evening and enjoying the beauty of nature were truly memorable. The entire trip will be a unique experience.
