Very friendly and caring
I had an unforgettable experience with Benson Safaris Tanzania! From the moment we arrived, everything was handled with professionalism, care, and true Tanzanian hospitality. Our guide was extremely knowledgeable about the wildlife, local culture, and the best spots for game viewing. Thanks to him, we were able to spot the Big Five and so much more!
The safari vehicle was comfortable and well-maintained, and the itinerary was perfectly balanced—offering adventure, relaxation, and cultural insights. The accommodations arranged by Benson Safaris were excellent, with breathtaking views and exceptional service.
If you're looking for a seamless, exciting, and well-organized safari in Tanzania, Benson Safaris is a top choice. Highly recommended!

Excellent in every way. Product, service and communication
We spent over two weeks with Benson Safari who handled every nuance of our trip. We started by hiking the Lemosho route up Kilimanjaro over the course of eight days with fourteen support crew. Our guide, Shaban, our assistant guide, Edie, and the cook, porters and others made our quest successful in that we summited on the night of the seventh day!! We then spent two nights at the Grand Melia in Arusha and then embarked on a six day safari to Tarangire, Ngorongoro and the Serengeti. If we would do it again, we would probably stay three nights somewhere in the Serengeti and head out from there and try to minimize travel time down by using flights or narrowing the parks we visited. Lots of bouncy road time!!!

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!
