Absolutely brilliant --- Laurette was wonderful --- would give more stars if I could!!!
Laurette took great care of us every step of the way, from initial contact, through planning, itinerary changes, special needs, and on through our amazing trip. We can't say enough good things about Pembury and Laurette (and we are experienced world travelers, having been to remote regions of Africa before). We would enthusiatically recommend them to anyone planning a southern Africa adventure!!!

We are from NYC area. This trip was absolutely amazing for our family and life changing for me.
I can't say enough- take this trip if you are thinking about it. The Benson team and our fantastic guide Goodluck made this a trip that my family and I will always remember. The kindness of all the people we met, the safari itself, and doing an amazing 10 day trip that not only got us in touch with all the amazing wild life, but also the people, and culture. Benson Safaris absolutely exceeded expectations and this trip will be with you for a long time. Thank you!

Great communication, well organised safari, good value for money. Recommended
Stephen Thank you veth much for organising safari for myself and my husband. We had an amazing 5 days, the group was very small so we had plenty of space in the car. Our driver was amazing, he did his best to allow us to see as many animals as possible. Lovely meals and comfy rooms.
The safari was fantastic, we managed to see lots of animals including the Big Five.
Stephen was very helpful and flexible. Due to change of plans he offered to pay for a boat trip for us which was very generous.
Bluerange Connect Ltd did they very best to keep us happy.
Once again thank you very much

Safari tour in Kenya and Tanzania
I am currently working in Ethiopia and decided to do a tour covering Kenya and Tanzania in about 2 weeks. I booked with Soul of Tanzania which organized the Tanzanian leg of the tour and outsourced the Kenyan part to Spirit of kenya. All the logistics were great and no obstacles appeared.In Tanzania we had land cruisers while in Kenya we had Toyota minivans. Comfort is very similar but the landcruisers are worth the extra bucks. Both vehicles were reliable and very clean.
Both guides were amazing but my favourite was Spirit of Kenya guide. His name was Robert. It was amazing how he could spot animals camafulaged far away while concentrating on his driving. The Tanzanian guide was James and he was very professional and corteous.
Overall amazing experience and would definitely recommend!

Great experience, excellent service and friendly guides
We booked our safari to Selous a couple of months before coming to Tanzania with Tomodachi. We cannot recommend enough! Joseph, the owner was very helpful in designing the best experience possible for us. Nico and Alifa, our guides, were great! Very friendly and knowledgeable. They made us feel at home for the whole safari. We keep wonderful memories. Thank you Tomodachi!

It was good... the tour guide was really good
The place where you took for lunch while going to lake nakuru. The food was not good at all. Rest of the meals were good.. Really well planned and our tour guide ambros was very amazing and showed us each and every animal.

Amazing safari
The team were fantastic and very knowledgeable on the local wildlife. The lodges and hotels were well equipped with everything I needed in order to make my life long dream of seeing the gorillas come true. My driver and tour guide was excellent and friendly and able to field many questions that I had. Richard was also on call for any questions I had. The tour was brilliantly executed with an itinerary that suited me perfectly as a solo traveller with plenty of flexibility.

Perspectives on South Africa
We hired Malcom for a 4 day tour to visit Swaziland and Lesotho, out of Johannesburg. I understand that this not one of Malcom's typical safari tented trips, but it was exactly what we wanted. Communication with Malcom was fantastic, and the trip couldn't have gone better. Also, a GREAT value! Malcom arranged all the hotels, met us at the airport and provided great commentary along the way. Malcom has lived in South Africa most of his life and has seen many changes. For us the hallmark of a great guide is someone that provides their own perspective on life and doesn't just show you the sights. As liberals from the USA, we may not fully understand his views, but we certainly appreciated being challenged by them.
