The tour operator Justine was excellent - took care of everything very thoroughly & professionally
I traveled by myself to Zanzibar and decided to book a safari through Shammah Wonders and it did not let me down. The whole experience was nothing like Ive ever done before and all the details were well taken care of. The tour guide - Tiko - is such a genuine and cool person that has very detailed knowledge of the animals and you will not be bored traveling with him - you might even see a leopard (; The whole experience with this company was excellent, I felt safe the entire time and I will definitely book with them again when I come back for a safari.

Everything was amazing
Amazing Kenya Safari Adventure! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
My recent 7-day safari in Kenya was absolutely unforgettable! From the moment we left Nairobi to explore the Maasai Mara, Lake Nakuru, Lake Naivasha, and Amboseli, every day was filled with incredible wildlife experiences and breathtaking landscapes.
Highlights of the trip included witnessing two lionesses skillfully hunting a young warthog, seeing a curious baby giraffe approach me just a few meters away, and spotting five cheetahs in Amboseli, which were even larger than the ones I had seen in Maasai Mara! The safari guides were knowledgeable and attentive, making sure we felt safe while getting the most out of each park.
Beyond the wildlife, I loved the serene landscapes, sunsets painting the savanna in pink and dark red hues, and the peaceful moments near the lakes. The combination of nature, adventure, and cultural encounters made this journey truly special.
I highly recommend this safari for anyone who wants to experience the raw beauty of Kenya, get close to wildlife, and create memories that will last a lifetime!

They transformed our dream of Africa into an experience that surpassed every expectation.
Thank you so much for your efforts! This week's safari has been absolutely incredible and truly unforgettable! Our guide was also wonderful and worked very hard to find animals for us. Today, we saw a herd of elephants at the foot of Mount Kilimanjaro. It was spectacular!

Trip of a Lifetime with Banok Safaris
We recently returned from an unforgettable journey with Banok Safaris, and we couldn’t be more grateful. Benson did a phenomenal job designing and customizing our itinerary to suit our interests and needs perfectly.
Exceptional Accommodations
Each camp and lodge we stayed in was unique and top-notch, offering a beautiful mix of décor, charm, and stunning scenery. The staff were consistently warm, gracious, and attentive—making us feel welcome and cared for throughout our stay.
Outstanding Guide Service
Our guide, Eric, was truly exceptional. From the moment we met him, he was welcoming, knowledgeable, and incredibly thoughtful. His driving skills and wildlife expertise made every game drive exciting and safe. On our very first day, we saw four of the Big Five within just two hours!
Above and Beyond Care
Eric’s kindness stood out when my aunt had difficulty getting in and out of the vehicle due to her knee and hip. Without hesitation, he went out and purchased a step stool to make things easier for her—a gesture that meant the world to us.
If you're considering a safari, we wholeheartedly recommend Banok Safaris. Their attention to detail, personalized service, and genuine care made this a once-in-a-lifetime experience.

We only saw a small portion but really liked what we did see
We visited 2 areas after crossing in from Tanzania at the Namanga border - Amboseli and Nairobi. Amboseli was spectacular. So very dry but this added to the vibe and feeling, particularly at sunset where we watched elephant herds walking towards Kilimanjaro for the night. After a night here we proceeded to Nairobi and took a great driving tour of the city center and then visited Nairobi National Park where we had spectacular up close views of rhinos and lions. The Giraffe Center to see and feed the Rothchild Giraffes was also very worthwhile.

A realiable agency and a good trip
1. compared with the offer from other agencies, we finally chose Hyrax due to the great value for money.
2. The most unforgettable day for me is in Lake Navaisha, the resort and the boat ride was excellent
3. Ben is a good guide and driver. We saw leopards several times and also we found many other animals.
Thanks a lot!
