Ok
Very good value for money. Excellent organization before the safari. They were ready to answer to any question anytime. The car was good. The Safari was amazing but we had some problem with our driver. The lodges were low quality but clean, good for the price and they offered very good food! We saw all the animals, from elephants, lions, zebras, hypos etc. we had some problems with our guide that left us the second day without any information about what we should do the next day. The visit to Masaai village was cancelled day by day without any information but at the end we got a refund for that. At the time of the payment they didn’t have change so we supposed to have it back the last day of the tour but we didn’t. Finally after over one month and a thousand messages sent I had my money back. Very good for the price after all.

A perfect safari tour! Our guide, George, was excellent and provided very professional commentary.
Westwild was quick to respond and arranged a great trip for us. The entire trip went smoothly with no issues regarding accommodation or transportation. Highly satisfied!

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.

Derrick was cool, but quiet, didn't say much during game drives, and seemed rushed.
Overall, everything went very well. Communication with the agency was excellent, and the staff were friendly. However, the day we left for the park, we left much later than planned and couldn't go to the Maasai Village. Furthermore, we entered the park late and left early on the other two days of the game drive. So we felt like we lost valuable time in the park and the opportunity to see more animals. This wasn't a good thing, considering the monetary cost of hiring a safari service.

Irresponsable
We did the 11-day Kenya and Tanzania safari. The ETA office is actually the Super Eagles office; I believe they are the same agency. The Kenyan driver/guide during the safaris gave us no information about where we were going or what we would do next. He drove aggressively, putting the passengers at risk, and on one occasion, he hit a sheep in the middle of the road. After complaints from all the passengers, they switched to another guide and vehicle; the vehicle was very uncomfortable and the windows didn't work properly. At one lodge, there were mice in the room at night. We found droppings on the bed and our belongings. A mouse tore through the fabric of the backpack, ate some cookies we had inside, and left droppings. Because of this situation, we consulted Derrick about what to do and whether there was a possibility of disease transmission, but we received no response. As we continued our safari in Tanzania, Seven Wonders was in charge of organizing it, and we had no problems with them.

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.

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!

The guide Benson is good, but the boss Martin is not good
The guide, Benson, was nice, but the owner, Martin, was not (typically a businessman).
The overall trip was good. However, the car was dirty, old, and broken. A two-year-old car felt like a 20-year-old, with broken seatbacks and rusty windows that wouldn't open fully. The owner, Martin, was a bit stingy and wasn't very easy to get along with.
