The most amazing memorable experience
Excellence. Everything was organized down to the detail with sympathy. I went alone with a 6 year old child, felt safe and taken care of eveywhere, not only from the safari organization, but also the different hostings along the way. From the beginning the responsiveness was immediate, transparent and well-rounded options. Our super knowledgable guide was flexible and we felt at home. What an adventure, we loved it ! Special thanks to Yvlyn and Zablon, who took great care of us.

Amazing safari august 2023
We had an amazing trip thanks to Benson and our personal guide Amini. We enjoyed the Serengeti, Ngorongoro crater, Tarangire and had a fun day exploring the Marangu waterfalls and coffee processing at the foot of the Kilimanjaro. We slept in really nice accommodations for the whole week and even saw a hippo outside of our tent. Benson and his crew have always been really nice to us and were always ready to help arrange our perfect holiday. It was a trip to never forget. Thanks again to Benson and Amini.

It was very well orginized.
I did not want to book through a Europian touroperator. I wanted to keep my money in Africa for our safari. It worked out very well trough booking Benson safaris. We made agreements about paying this trip and everything worked out fine. Our driver Amini was at the airport and he was our guide all week. He was always smiling and he learned us a lot about wildlife. We were extremly satisfied about our safari and about the other things we did during our stay in Tanzania. Do not hesitate to book Benson safaris.

Excellent and very quick service!
From booking the tour to it's end, I only have praise. Our fluent in German and English tour Driver/ Guide Michael, arrived punctually with a 100% well equipped A/C Jeep. Cold drinks, binoculars, Information guide about wild life and plants we would see, were all part of the amenities. Michael the guide, was "simpatico" and really knowledgeable about wild life and culture in general. He made the experience richer by providing us with very Professional Information. Michael took care of "everything" like the check in at lodges, entries to the national Parks and was a very good driver on some very precarious roads. We booked a 7 day Safari beginning with Manyara Nalt. Park, Norongoro Crater, Serengeti and finishing in Tarengira Nalt. Park. The coronucopia of experiences of seeing all the big 5 animals and a mirade of birds ( Michael was an expert in Bird life) made this tour a "life time memorable experience".
We would highly recommend booking with Benson Safari!

Unforgetable and Amazing Experience
We had booked a safari with Benson Safaris. What a wonderful safari we had. Thanks to Benson and our guide Peter. Peter knows a lot of all the plants and animals in de national parks we visited: Tarangire, Serengeti, Ngorogoro crater. Peter is a safe driver and is very focused on the wishes of the costumer. The arrangements and hotels were wonderful, Patricia did a great job too. Our trips during the day well organized and a day after the last trip we already missed Peter. Even when we decided to changed an hotel during the trip, they helped us to have it done.
We had wine provided by peter because he heard my wife doesn't drink beer and he always had a surprise (an animal to be photographed) during the safari. We were really surprised with the safari, one of the best experiences in our life.

Fantastic
I have unforgettable memories of the safari organized by Benson. From the friendly welcome from the airport, then a big thank you to Frank, our pleasant and careful driver. As for the lodges and our safaris in the parks, it was great. I recommend Benson for his patience during our exchanges to organize the safari and then his professionalism throughout the circuit.

Wonderful, most amazing tour operator we’ve had
Our safari with Benson was truly amazing. Their communication upfront is clear and quick, with a clear itinerary, plenty of room for questions and good payment options and confirmations.
Our experience during the safari was simply great. Our guide Peter was the most friendly, attentive, knowledgable and kind person we could have wished for and the owner Benson surprised us on multiple occassions. The itinerary was very well planned, we’ve seen amazing landscapes and animals (guide Peter had a very good eye) and the hotels were very well arranged.
We’d truly like to urge you to consider choosing this locally owned provider, as the thought and effort they put in to make your safari the best is unmatched and you contribute directly to the local community. Thanks Benson and Peter, we really felt like part of the family!
