Perfect organized journey that was a wonderfull experience.
In Arusha, we were very well received by the friendly staff. Then our journey began with our guide Gilbert. From the first moment, the connection was good and he was a very spontaneous guy. The trip was perfectly organised with nice clean accommodations. Truly a great experience. The guide goes out of his way to show you everything in the shortest possible time. Just the driving experience over the bumpy roads is fun.
Value for money was also very good.

The company is reliable, everything as we agreed.
A wonderful safari trip from Zanzibar to Arusha.
We visited Ngorongoro Crater and Tarangire Park.
Everyone is different and different animals, but all charming and wonderful.
The organization and communication with Judith was perfect, no problem, everything was as we agreed. You don't have to worry. We had a driver Godfrei with whom we were safe and he always tried to find the animals to be close to us. Judith is a very friendly and nice person.❤️
Be sure to choose this company, because everything will be according to your wishes.
Thank you all very much, it was a wonderful experience.❤️

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED
I had the pleasure of touring with Bencia Africa Adventure and Safaris for a 4-day safari to Masai Mara and Lake Nakuru. From the pick-up at my hotel, they showed professionalism and were very friendly as well. Our chef, John, was hilarious throughout the trip and made us delicious meals. Not forgetting our guide, Joseph, who was extremely knowledgeable about the animals and knew exactly where to find them. Overall, my experience with Bencia was a 10/10, and if I could, I would definitely tour with them again in the future. Highly recommended!

So much wildlife in 2 days
Cyrus provided a thrilling and safe Safari experience. Within minutes of entering Nakuru National Park we saw two lions hunting from just 15-20 yards away. He found rhinoceros and so many big and small wildlife. He was so helpful and patient guiding us through the parks.
He set us up with a great boat captain John at Lake Naivasha who guided us to so many wonderful bird picture opportunities.

reliable and precise
My partner and I asked to organize an expedition to the highest mountains in Africa. Mount Kenya and then Mount Kilimanjaro. Dickson helped us plan the entire trip (using whatsapp) providing us with all the necessary information. The most advantageous thing for us was to decide the period that was most convenient for us and Dickson adapted the entire organization based on our needs. Everything worked very well. We found prepared and competent people. Dickson accompanied us when needed, or checked via whatsapp that everything was going well. For us it was a very positive experience, a real adventure. Our hearts are full of emotions.

This was the best tour I've ever been on. Our driver, Albert, was incredibly thoughtful&attentive
After researching several tour operators, I can confidently say that this one exceeded all my expectations. Our guide, Albert, went above and beyond to ensure we had an unforgettable experience. We were lucky enough to spot all of the Big 5, and his knowledge about the wildlife and the area made the trip educational and engaging. Everything was perfectly timed, and we never had to worry about a thing. I highly recommend this company for anyone seeking a well-organized and professional tour. I'll definitely be returning with my family, and I’ll be requesting Albert again!

Wild, with a touch of magic
I wasn't sure what to expect on my first African safari ever when I spent two days visiting the Masai Mara in July 2024 with a group of Indian tourists.
The Kenyan safari took me by surprise - and altered my perspective powerfully. I realized that our planet did not really belong to humankind.
With patience born from years of experience, our expert guide-driver Charles took us offroading in his mini-van with a pop-up top across rough tracks with acacia trees, to slowly but surely reveal the Big 5 (Lion, African elephant, Cape buffalo, rhinoceros, and leopard) and the Ugly 5 (warthog, hyena, marabou stork, vulture and wildebeest). It was electrifying. He made sure all our safari dreams came true.
What our city eyes saw as distant 'rocks' morphed into herds of wildebeest. A clump of savannah grass rustled to life, slowly parting to reveal a leopard. A herd of elephants appeared alongside the rough tracks, as if on a calm pre-sunset walk.
We spotted a pair of cheetahs feasting on their wildebeest prey... a pregnant lioness yawning and stretching, belly up... a two-horned African rhinoceros... and vultures and hippopotamus, foxes and hyenas, zebras and giraffes...
I was fascinated by the see-saw rhythm of the Great Migration in real time (not like a National Geographic documentary, honestly). Hundreds of wildebeest and zebras gathered at the edge of a steep incline overlooking the Mara river. They seemed to be afraid of the crocodiles lying in wait for prey in the waters. A few reversed towards known though depleted pastures. The rest followed. On the first evening, we watched this natural progression live on repeat dozens of times. Never boring!
The next morning, one of the regular crossing sites from Masai Mara in Kenya to Serengeti in Tanzania was jammed with safari vehicles. Would the herds cross - or wouldn't they? They amassed, approached and retreated, time and again. Four larger wildebeest on the other bank seemed to signal that it was safe to reach the other bank. Through a tangle of hooves, we counted animals descending to the river bank. Ten minutes later, 13 wildebeest and zebras started to climb up towards Serengeti in Tanzania. They had swum safely across.
Overall, it was like being on a safari with a magician, who had the power to show us every Masai Mara animal we could imagine.
Having Thomas, an expert Masai tracker with us, helped to zone in on these wonders in the wilderness.
Charles handled every hiccup on the trip with confidence, common sense, calmness and courtesy, with our safety and comfort in mind. Always professional. I appreciated that deeply.
Would I recommend that you travel with Charles African Travels? Oh yes. Without a second thought.
