unforgettable 5 days safari experience
5/5

We had an amazing experience with Banok Safaris on our 5 days Kenya safari! As a couple, we were looking for adventure and a bit of romance, this trip delivered it all. Our guide was knowledgeable and friendly, the wildlife sightings were unforgettable (we saw the big five!), and the lodges were beautiful and comfortable. I was happy everything was organized well from start to finish.
Highly recommend Banok Safaris for anyone looking for a seamless safari experience. We will be back!

Banok Safaris Made It Perfect
5/5

As a Solo traveler, i could not have asked for a better experience than the 9 days safari organized by Banok Safaris. From the moment i was picked, i felt safe, welcomed and well taken care of. The itinerary was perfectly balanced with exciting game drives, stunning landscapes, and just the right amount of downtime relax and take it all in.
Travelling through different parks, i had incredible wildlife sightings, and each destination had its unique charm. My Guide Eric was exceptional, friendly, knowledgeable, and always happy to share insights about animals and history; i never felt alone. The accommodation were comfortable, clean and full of character. As a solo guest, i appreciated the personalized attention and warm hospitality at every stop.
Banok Safaris made this solo journey one of the most memorable experience of my life. If you are traveling alone and dreaming of safari, this is the team you want y your side.

I recently took a tour with Banok safaris, and I couldn’t be more impressed. Everything was well-organized, professional, and enjoyable. The guides were incredibly knowledgeable and friendly, making the entire experience feel personal and engaging.

Every detail was thoughtfully planned,from the cossy transportation to the perfectly timed stops and insightful commentary. They went above and beyond to make sure everyone was having a great time and even accommodated special requests without hesitation.

Our 12 Days Safari
5/5

Our 12 days safari with Banok Safaris through Kenya and Tanzania was truly the trip of a lifetime. From the moment we landed, everything was well organized, and we felt completely taken care of. Benson was friendly, and always made sure we were comfortable. We visited amazing places like Lake Nakuru, Masai Mara, Serengeti, Ngorongoro crater, Tarangire park and Amboseli. Each park was unique and full of wildlife - we saw lions, elephants, giraffes, rhinos, buffaloes, cheetahs and also had a wonderful hot air balloon over Masai Mara.
We had the best guides who were very experienced which made every game drive exciting and informative. The accommodations were beautiful and cozy, with lovely views and great food.
As a couple we enjoyed the romantic sunsets, peaceful campfires, and private moments in nature. Banok Safaris gave us a perfect blend of adventure, relaxation, and unforgettable memories. Highly recommend!

3 wonderful days in the Masai Mara
5/5

I had a wonderful three-day safari in the Masai Mara. The nature is magnificent, and we saw many animals. Our guide, Eric, was very kind and explained everything to us. The lodge was clean and comfortable, and the food was good. I really enjoyed the safaris, especially the morning ones. It was a short trip, but truly special. I hope to come back!

10 Days of adventure
5/5

A 10 day safari proved to be a once in a lifetime experience. This was our first time in Africa, and we were deeply impressed by the exceptional service, warm hospitality, and attention to details provided throughout the journey. From the beginning Benson made the booking process smooth and reassuring, answering all our questions and ensuring that everything was perfectly arranged. Upon arrival, we were welcomed by our guide Eric, who become not just guide but a true friend over the course of the safari.
Eric deep knowledge of wildlife, nature, and culture made every day fascinating and educational. He always made sure we were safe and enjoying every moment which turned each game drive into exciting adventure.
The service at each lodge and camp Benson booked for us was warm and welcoming giving us true African hospitality.
The entire journey was smooth, safe, and filled with memorable moments. This was more than just a holiday-it was a meaningful adventure that we will cherish forever. We are deeply grateful to Eric, Benson,and the entire Banok Safaris Team.

Our unforgettable first safari in Kenya
5/5

As a couple travelling to Kenya for the first time, we did not know exactly where to start and what to expect. We decided to contact Banok Safaris to plan our trip, Ben made sure our experience was nothing short of magical. He organized and booked everything very quick, from airport transfers, accommodation, and daily safari schedule/game drives.
We visited the iconic Masai Mara, the game drives were breathtaking. We saw all the bigfive, giraffes grazing gracefully, and even cheetah print in action. Our guide Eric was incredibly knowledgeable, sharing insights about wildlife, and local culture. We loved our stay so much, Governors camp is the best, with stunning views and friendly hospitality.
Banok Safaris did not just take us like clients, but they treated us like family. We highly recommend to any couple or traveler dreaming of a seamless, safe and memorable safari.
