It was the greatest time in my life
5/5

Game drive from 25-27.03.2022

Hello together,
On 25th of march, we started our safari trip. We drove with bonfire adventures, and we had the best driver in the world, Ben. It was my first safari trip ever before.
Ben was coming on 6 o´clock am to Nairobi and picked us up to drive to the “MASAI MARA NATIONAL RESERVE”. Then we were navigated for about 6 hours. After we arrived our destination, we got lunch. All time the food was very delicious. After a short break, we went to our first “short” safari trip. On 25th of march we were driving from 3 pm till 7 pm. We saw a lot of animals in this area. We were so happy that we could see so many difference animals at the first day. I like the hippos most. But also, the elephants, zebras and lions were awesome to see. At any time, we had to leave the national park. And on the way we saw a very impressive sunset. And shortly after, it started to rain. 9 o´clock pm we got supper.

On 26th of march the day started at 5:30 am. We got breakfast from 5:30 am till 6:00 am. And the game drive started at 6:15 am. It was a very funny day with all peoples involved. Ben was joking a lot. There was a lot of laughter. We told Ben the German joke “How to get an elephant in a fridge?” This was too much for him. He couldn´t stop laughing.

This was an Adventure of discovery.
5/5

This Excursion was the best thing I did in Nairobi. I really enjoyed our conversation with the driver he is very knowledgeable about what he does. He was also very funny I would love to do this next time and I would recommend this to anyone.

Great Tour, great Guide, Hakuna Matata
5/5

Me and my family did a 5 day Safari, from Nairobi to sweetwater lake, to lake Nakuru and to Masai mara. Our tour guide was Benson, and he was always trying to make us familiar with the country, the cultures, the history, the language and of course the animals. After we got to know each other there was a very enjoyable atmosphere which has been perfect to go on a safari. Benson always had to tell us a lot about the animals and the surrounding and attempted to make it possible to see every animal (which he managed to do).
I really enjoyed the experience and will definitively come back one day and I think Benson was a main reason we all fell in love with Kenia the way we did.
Some general facts and experiences were for example its always good to take some extra Schillings for Tips around with you and the Into Adventure Safari is very reliable. I'´´ have never felt insecure and we were always on time. Everybody we met and talked to spoke english very well, so you can coma along with anybody. If not, Benson was always a great translator. Do not forget your sunscreen and enjoy your trip!
Thank You Benson or how you would say in Swahili, Asante Sana!

Benson was very knowledgeable and knew the tricks to find all the animals of our interest!
5/5

We were a family of four. Benson was so patient with us and the needs of our little ones. He maintained a very calm demeanor whenever the kids asked that we stop for something.

Benson was also very helpful with helping us know the history of most geographic areas that we passed through on our way to our safaris.

Spent two nights in Naivasha and three nights at Maasai Mara National Reserve in Kenya. The experience was one of the best times of our lives. We were able to see most of the wild animals; from Lions in what Benson hilariously called “harusi” in Swahili or wedding lol. But it was their mating date which was such an experience.

Benson was also able to crisscross the Mara reserve and skillfully identify a group of cheetahs that he; for a fact, predicted that they were grouping for an attack to hunt down a wildebeest. He radiod the rest of the guides and they all rushed there to witness the hunt which was one heck of an experience seeing them kill a giant wildebeest.

We took some of the best photos of our vacationing life. Benson was also very helpful in educating us on how most of the animals in the wild cohabit and their survival skills.

It was a safari to remember with Into Adventure Safaris.

Super helpful and they go out of their way to ensure a great experience!
5/5

When we first started searching for Safaris, we were not sure who to go ahead with. But after getting in touch with Ben at Into Adventure, we knew we were making the right choice. Ben was extremely helpful leading up to the trip as well as during the trip and for that I’m thankful. He was willing to incorporate all our requests with regards to booking updates and during the safari, he did more than enough to ensure we were comfortable and were seeing great sights. Because of Ben, we saw cheetahs eating their prey, lions with killed animals, leopards mating and much more. Thank you Ben and thank you Into!

100 % Peace of mind with Into Adventure, Thanks to Ben
5/5

Though Ben requested me to write review about our experience with Into Adventure for our recent Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru and Amboseli safaris, I don't feel to write too much. All the good things people wrote here about Into Adventure and Benson Maina are 100% true. When I was looking for a safari package, the thing concerned me most was the trust worthiness of the safari operator company. I read the other people's reviews just like you are reading my one at this moment and thought about trying with Into Adventure. I got 100% peace of mind. All the good words other people said about this company and Ben are true. Ben is very care taking and wonderful safari guide come driver. He proactively managed Covid PCR test for me and my wife on the way, saved our time and helped us be free of any hassle at the airport before boarding. He will try to offer you the best safari experience - I guarantee. I plan to comeback to this beautiful country, explore more of Kenya and for sure - I will go with Ben and Into Adventure.

Best Safari ever
5/5

Tour organized by Intoadventure Safaris. There was always contact in advance. Special requests were received. Before the safari I also felt very well looked after. At the Nairobi airport I was met by my driver guides. Jackson drove with me to the Meru and samburu, Ben was waiting for me after a flight from Samburu to the Masai Mara. Both guides were absolutely friendly, helpful, and compassionate. In addition, they had good driving skills and specialist knowledge. It was fun to talk to them and to learn a lot about the country and the wildlife. I've always felt good. The proposed accommodations were also very good. I also had the opportunity to do a PCR test on site (although I am fully vaccinated). Overall a unique safari with incredible animal sightings with respect for the nature and animals, what was very important to me. It was fantastic. Until the end of my stay, I was looked after in an exemplary manner. Clear recommendation for Intoadventure Safaris as well as my great guides Jackson and Ben.

Very educational
5/5

Part tour guide part professor, Benson was great at quizzing me on what I learned during my time in Africa from what a group of zebras are called ( dazzle ) to how to identify leopards

excellent driver, laid-back guy, with great knowledge of the site and nature, willing and reliable
5/5

I traveled several times to Botswana, Namibia, Uganda, I stood at the source of the Zambezi. At a young age I was on the peaks of Kilimanjaro, Mt. Kenya and Ruwenzori. When I left with my friends for Kenya in July, I had no idea that I had another amazing adventure ahead of me, a safari with our guide Benson Maina. Eight days spent in Nakuru NP and Masai Mara were truly unforgettable.
Ben is an excellent driver with deep knowledge of the best places. He is always in a good mood. And he has a great feeling for stopping the car so that the photographic shot is as good as possible. Thank you, Ben, very much!!
