Easy to connect, very good service, adaptable to our wishes
Our travel lasted four days and we visited Moshi area and Tarangire national park. We had some specific desires and Benson was very helpful to fulfil these. We appreciated a silent Saturday morning tour in Tarangire from the western entrance (few other visitors that day). The night stays were all perfect, in particular the Burunge lodge where elephants marched close to our cabin early morning. Our driver and guide Liberatus had exceptionally good insight on nature and animal life and made our trip an adventure.

They transformed our honeymoon in a lifetime experience.
Our five-day safari was truly unforgettable! With the amazing guide Zablon, every moment was full of wonder. This journey touched our hearts and changed our lives—we can't wait to go back.
The location was stunning, and the team made sure our honeymoon was special. Every accommodation was fantastic, but "Into the Wild" was extra special.
Thank you for giving us this wonderful opportunity. Kwaheri marafiki!

Quality service and communication
I used Benson Safaris in 2017 when my wife and I did a safari in Tanzania. I told her I wanted to bring the kids some day when there were older. Well that was in Dec. of 2024. I was so happy with Benson Safaris that I reached out to use them again. Benson Safaris did a great job of communicating prior to the trip and the trip itself was grand. The two guides we used (one in Kenya, Edmund, and one for Tanzania, Lebetas) were knowledgeable, courteous and fun. We requested 4 out of 5 star accomodations and the places where we stayed were great. High marks all around.

Unforgettable, Authentic Tanzanian Safari Experience Tailored to Perfection with Local Expertise.
I recently returned from an unforgettable safari with Benson Safaris Tanzania, and I cannot praise them enough! Their local presence as a Tanzania-based company truly sets them apart, offering unparalleled insight into the region’s culture, landscapes, and wildlife. As a solo traveler, I was impressed by their attentiveness—they carefully listened to my preferences and crafted a perfect itinerary tailored just for me. My journey included the Serengeti National Park, Tarangire National Park, and the Ngorongoro Conservation Area and Crater.
My guide, Zablon, was exceptional in every way. His remarkable skill in spotting wildlife ensured I saw the Big Five and countless other species, exceeding all my expectations. As a local from Arusha, he shared the rich culture of the area, an experience I will always treasure. His knowledge of the best spots for landscape and wildlife photography was invaluable, making the trip even more special as a hobbyist photographer.
Benson Safaris Tanzania’s meticulous planning was flawless. From luxurious tented lodges with incredible food and breathtaking views to unforgettable experiences like a walking safari, night safari drive, and a hot air balloon ride, every detail was handled with care.
One of the most memorable moments was meeting Benson, the company’s owner. His passion for Tanzania and commitment to creating exceptional experiences for his guests were inspiring. Hearing his story was a privilege and a testament to the heart behind the company.
This safari was a once-in-a-lifetime adventure, and I wholeheartedly recommend Benson Safaris Tanzania to anyone seeking an authentic, personalized, and truly unforgettable experience in Tanzania!

Outstanding experience!
Benson Safaris was highly recommended to us by a friend--and he was absolutely right. From the first email to Benson, asking about the safari options, to the last day--when he came to see us off and gift us amazing local coffee beans--working with Benson Safaris has been a wonderful experience. As we were planning the trip, they worked closely with us to fit our requests for animals to see but also stay within our budget. Their planning was outstanding--and made the trip so incredibly easy for us. As soon as we exited the airport in Tanzania, our driver (Zab) greeted us warmly and provided us with all the necessary information for the next few days.The 3 days at the park were incredible: Zab shared with us his knowledge about the animals we were seeing, their habits and habitats, stopping along the way for as long as we needed to 'soak' up the views. The accommodations Benson had chosen were excellent: we stayed in the parks, having animals right outside our bungalow or our tent. This was a trip that was not high on our bucket list: but Benson travel and Zab in particular made it the best (and easiest!) trip we have ever taken. Because of their professionalism and exceptional service, we are already planning our next visit to Tanzania. And, as expected, Benson Travel (and Zab!) will be the tour operator we will choose.

The Benson Safari trip was organized incredibly. Their guides are intuitive and committed to giving their guests an amazing trip. This is the second time we used them. And if we ever come back we’ll use them again.
