Personalized and Personable Safari
Benson Safaris provided 18 of us the most marvelous 9 days on the Sarengeti. Animals galore, Glamping at its best, and attentive care for all of us. Their drivers were very safe, knowledgable men. Vans well maintained. I recommend them highly for a group going together. They definitely will work with you to give you the experience of your lifetime.

Awesome safari with very accommodating and nice guide and tour company
Last year me and four of my friends went on a safari trip with Shayona Safari & Tours. We started in Mwanza very early on Saturday morning and spend one night in the Serengeti National Park. The park is amazing and the amount of animals that you get to see is unbelievable!
I can highly recommend going with this tour company too! The day before our trip we were able to talk with our guide and the company and see the car that we were planning to go in. They made sure to listen to our wishes and we figured a super nice plan together. Our guide was super friendly and knew a lot to tell us about the animals and the surrounding.
Thank you for the amazing time!

Eric was so knowledgable, professional and an all together perfect guide. Would recommend him 100%.
I will forever be greatful for the wonderful experience Serengeti Clearity has given us. Frank set us up with an incredible 8 day itinerary of the northern part of Tanzania. The stays that Frank had set us up in were beautiful, the food was so delicious, the people very friendly and we learned so much about the animals of Tanzania along with the culture. Our game guide Eric was the best guide that we could have asked for. He was so knowledgable and took so much time to make sure we had the best viewing experience. This trip was way above our expectations. We are truly thankful and blessed to have been able to have this wonderful experience. Thank you!

A special thank you to our guide, Dommi, who was fantastic. He was knowledgeable, friendly, and went above and beyond to make our safari unforgettable. His expertise and enthusiasm made all the difference.
We highly recommend this company to anyone visiting Tanzania!

Domi was an amazing guide from start to finish. He was incredibly patient, friendly, and always took the time to answer all of our questions. You could really tell how much he knows about the wildlife and the parks. He never rushed us and always stopped whenever there was something interesting to see or a great photo opportunity. Thanks to him, we had an unforgettable safari experience. Highly recommend!

Amazing
We spent several days exploring Ngorongoro, Seronera, and the Northern Serengeti with Domi, and it couldn’t have been better. He went above and beyond to make sure we saw everything we came for, including the Big Five and the incredible wildebeest river crossing. His dedication and determination were impressive, and made the most out of our 4 day trip. We couldn’t have asked for a better guide.

Wonderful Experience
An incredible experience, seeing all kinds of animals in the wild. Plus, thanks to the driver's commentary, we gained a much better understanding of how these animals live their day to day lives.

Balu Travel Focussed on shopping rather than Safari
Balu Travel safari agency cared more about shopping than animal viewing. We had a long (more than 30min) shopping stop everyday, even inside the natural park and this one was at 9am!! just during the best time for animal viewing. Meeting times with the driver James were always late. On the ongoing trip from Nairobi we had to wait for 1h for some supplies which were not picked up in Nairobi. The safari started at 8am when other agencies start 6-7am for better chances of game viewing. The driver James spent most of the time at the phone, didn't explain anything, no comments and explanations about animals, only the passenger next to him could hear him, he only talked when asked and mostly responded with shortest answers possible. The driver James wasn't friendly. One visitor was curious and liked to ask questions, driver wasn't friendly with him, seemed he didn't want to respond or talk, it was very uncomfortable. Everything seemed rushed, the most important thing was stopping at selling points even inside the park. Afternoon game drive was very rushed, he just wanted to show the river and the Tanzanian border, try to finish as early as possible and no interest at all for animals. Visitors had to ask to stop and to get closer to animals because the driver wanted to finish the safari as soon as possible.
