Great Value and wonderful service
Morris was fantastic right away. Most operators will test you to see what you are willing to pay. He was fair and honest and the service he provided was second to none. I did try a few other operators that a good friend suggested and the were overpriced and the accommodations were second rate. Morris was fair and provided exactly what we wanted and nothing we didn’t. It’s important that you communicate exactly what you want ahead of time so he knows your expectations. I’ll use him again and I’ll recommend him to anyone. It was the trip of a lifetime.

Malaki is the “real deal”. Maasai, born living his life on this land. Spectacular guide!
A trip of a lifetime! We wanted a wildlife safari trip and experienced all that and even more. Malaki‘s intimate knowledge of the land, starting in childhood as a Maasai pastoralist in the Ngorongoro region gave him first-hand knowledge of every living thing throughout Tanzania. Later in life, he sought higher education that earned him certificates in guiding, tourism and all wildlife knowledge. We went on a private, two person moderately Price trip, which was more “bang for our buck” than we ever dreamed of. He is well-known in the circle of guides and in affluent Safari camps (based on confirmation of previous employers.)
I promise you will not be disappointed. Malaki will do whatever it takes to ensure your trip is your dream a lifetime.

Perfect Coordination
After lots of research, we chose Hyrax Safaris because they offered an easily customizable plan as well as a great price compared to its competitors. Correspondence was always quick with Ms Emmah. Service was unbeatable from start to finish. Our driver Mr Anthony was on time for pickup. We had a great adventure that we will share for the rest of our lives. We highly recommend booking a tour with Hyrax Safaris.

Unforgettable Family Adventure with Benson Safaris in Tanzania!
My family, including my wife, 12-year-old daughter, and I, embarked on an incredible safari to Tanzania last November with Benson Safaris, and the experience exceeded all our expectations. Our journey took us through the breathtaking landscapes of Tarangire, Lake Manyara, and the Ngorongoro Crater, and our base at Migombani Campsite, overlooking Lake Manyara, provided the perfect setting for an unforgettable adventure.
From the outset, Benson Safaris impressed us with their exceptional service and high standards. Our guide, a seasoned and safe driver, skillfully navigated the diverse terrains, ensuring our safety while enhancing our wildlife encounters. The camping equipment provided was top-notch, and the full-board arrangement, sometimes as a packed meal for early morning park visits, showcased their commitment to making our experience seamless.
Communication with the team was effortless, and they accommodated our food and beverage preferences with enthusiasm. A notable highlight was the in-vehicle fridge that magically produced ice-cold drinks mid-drive—a welcome touch of luxury in the heart of the wilderness.
A safari is always a game of chance, but with Benson Safaris, luck was on our side. Witnessing baby lions with their mother, cheetahs feasting on a recent kill, a thrilling close encounter with a majestic elephant, and a leopard hunting a baboon during a night drive were just a few of the mesmerizing moments that filled our days.
I highly recommend the extra expense to go on a night drive, which is a unique experience. We opted for a night drive in Lake Manyara, and the rewards were beyond our imagination. The nocturnal activities and the chance to witness the park's transformation under the moonlight added a layer of magic to our safari.
Amid rising costs, Benson Safaris' camping accommodation option emerged as a practical and comfortable choice for our small family. The well-organized setup by the dedicated staff allowed us to immerse ourselves in the adventure, and sleeping in tents added an extra element of excitement to our journey.
In conclusion, I wholeheartedly recommend Benson Safaris to any family seeking to explore the wonders of the African wilderness. Their commitment to excellence, coupled with unforgettable wildlife encounters and a genuine sense of adventure, made our safari an experience of a lifetime. Thank you, Benson Safaris, for crafting memories that will forever hold a special place in our hearts!

Dishonest company
On the first day of our trip with this tour operator, they cancelled our flight from Zanzibar to Arusha with only an hour's notice. We were not able to delay the trip, and had to cancel the tour. However the company never refunded us our money, which they still haven't to this day.

Thank you for giving us an unforgettable journey. Africa is truly enchanting.
This trip gave us wonderful memories.
Firstly, as for the coordination, Zippy was very patient and attentive. She adjusted the itinerary and hotel arrangements several times according to my needs. She even applied for a WeChat account for me because I don't have WhatsApp.
Our driver was Bonnie, and I highly recommend him!!!!!! He was very responsible and experienced. He searched diligently for animals in Maasai Mara and Amboseli, especially on the last day in Maasai Mara. Bonnie spent the whole day with us on a safari in the park. Knowing that we were disappointed not seeing a leopard, he insisted on taking us to track one when he heard there was a sign of leopard before we left the park. We were fortunate enough to witness a leopard hunting, and we are especially grateful to him for that! Overall, it was a very satisfying journey. Thank you very much! By the way, it's better to choose accommodations inside Maasai Mara.
