Fantastic 3 Days Masai Mara
I booked a 3 day safari with Bencia Africa adventure with my friends. The driver picked as on time and was friendly. The journey to mara was smooth . We got a golden opportunity to see the big five. The camps were simply the best. To top it all it was my birthday and I was surprised with a birthday cake after dinner that was well prepared by chef George.

Reliable, 10 out of 10 in service, worth the price
Our tour guides, Taufic and Muhammad, truly went above and beyond for us.
They took such good care of every little detail, from asking us what we liked to drink and eat during those long Jeep rides, to checking in on us after the exhausting trek through the forest. Their kindness and attentiveness made the whole experience even more special.
Leaving Rwanda with a happy and full heart. This trip is one for the books, from zip-lining to trekking along muddy trails, every moment was worth it. God is truly amazing for creating such a wonderful country for us to explore and be grateful for always 🙏🏻

World Safari Land Tours! Great company, Wonderful people and wonderful safari !!
Everything went OK with our trip with World Safari Land Tours! On our arrival at Kilimanjaro Airport, we immediately saw the car from World Safari Land Tours was waiting for us. He drove us to our hotel. Next morning we had a short trip with the family - and we met our driver-guide Mike. Monday morning the car was present at the hotel and the safari could begin. We had booked a 6 days-safari with camping in tents. We had a wonderful time in Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Serengeti, and Ngorongoro. Mike is really a good driver and has very sharp eyes. He knows where the wild animals are and knows almost every name of the birds! The places to camp where all nice - Acacia was really good and the two campsites in full nature - especially in Ngorongoro - were fascinating. We had a very good cook (unfortunately I don't remember his name): every meal tastes good - especially the ginger in the food!
It was hard for us to say goodbye to Calvin(The director) who was one amazing and understanding person, Mike( the driver guide) and the cook.
Thank you so much World Safari Land Tours management, We sure will be back again for Kilimanjaro hike.
If you are thinking of a safari with World Safari Land Tours, just do it !! You’ll never regret.

Deeply caring to clients needs and enjoyment. Constant follow up. Serious.
Above all must be said this tour operator works as a team and we felt, someway, part of that team during the time spent together. From the office we’have received constant attention like anything could not be wrong. Really appreciate that guys!
In addition, each and every one of the structures have been hosted in were amazing from the staff to the rooms, from the food to the view. Personally speaking the gem was the Serengeti Bush Camp, you are in the middle of National Park with marabustock and gazzellas came to visit and feed by the tent (that by the way is a 5 star tent).
Last but not for importance our guide Mdee was amazing, a super guy (and guide) who knows the territory and how to do his job well and smoothly. Also him was deeply caring for details! We enjoyed because of him, super recommended (all the service). Price on the average services quality above the average!

Unethical
I booked a 12 day safari in Uganda, Kenya, and Tanzania in September 2023 for a trip scheduled the end of June 2024 (fully paid for April 2024). At the time of booking I was promised all confirmations of lodges, flights. The beginning of June, I reached out to their office to request the promised confirmations 3 times. When I did finally receive the confirmations, they were only for the Uganda portion. I repeatedly requested the confirmations for Kenya and Tanzania and was repeatedly told “everything is reserved.” This turned out to be the first of many lies made by the head of the company, Simon. The day before my flight to Kenya, with no evidence of a flight from Entebbe to Nairobi, I contacted the lodge in Kenya to confirm my reservation. I discovered the reservation had been made but was not paid for, so they had not released the confirmation. Additionally, I was informed the Kenya agent they outsourced (they contacted her the DAY I ARRIVED to organize that portion!!) had not been paid for the additional 7 nights (lodging, flights, activities) in Kenya and Tanzania. My flight from Uganda to Kenya, which I was also told conflicting lies and excuses about, was purchased by an office worker 6 hours before scheduled departure. As of this time, the payment (which is significant) to the agent in Kenya (who is beyond superb) is unpaid by Azas. Avoid this company at all costs.
8 Day trip with Eascto An Excellent Safari !!!
We have just finished an 8 day safari with Eastco. Visiting Ngorongoro Serengeti Manyara and Tarangire.
The trip booked months ago was better than expected and everything went according to plan including the wildlife.
Lions elephants giraffe cheetah and one leopard all helped the experience.
The lodges and camps were well situated for the parks we visited. The Wildlife Lodge at Ngorongoro had beautiful views and excellent food. The view from the veranda of the crater in the late evening was well worth the Rim stay.
In the Serengeti we stayed at the very popular Kati Kati Camp. Another excellent choice, the closeness of the game made for relaxing game drives. Boundary Hill Lodge has probably the best location of any lodge we saw perched atop a steep ridge. Our guide Kibabai was young and enthusiastic with a good knowledge of the parks and the animals birds included.
It was a great trip, well organized and thanks to Eastco planned to perfection. The trip was well worth the 5 star rating.

Good budget adventure
We had a 3 day trip with Bencia over the easter weekend to Nakuru-Naivasha and Hells gate. We were pleased overall with everything, all the things promised were delivered upon, we had a great game drive in Nakuru, as well as a really nice bike trip in Hells gate. One thing which was disappointing was the boat trip on Naivasha - but this was optional and was not organized by Bencia.
We went with an open top minivan, which wasnt exactly the newest, but was comfortable enough and got us where we needed to go. The accommodation was rudimentary and low on comfort, and there are better and more comfortable places to stay - but for the price we paid I think we got what we expected. To note: accommodations were clean, there was hot water so no issues to report there. The second night stands out at Naivasha as the camping spot had a wonderful view and was amazing.
Our guide/driver and cook were both great and very helpful and friendly. Food was great, we had a nice tour of Kenyan cuisine!
All in all, I would recommend Bencia.

A company that would give you the best experience during your trip
we did a 15-day safari through Uganda in which we really saw everything. Our guides Solomon and Abraham have ensured that this is truly an experience we will never forget.
in addition to what they promise to show us in the document you put together with them, they do their best to go the extra mile. they want to give you a real uganda experience with local food, community tours and are always ready to answer your questions. they know where the good places for tourists to spend the night where you immediately feel comfortable and safe. communication went well and if any changes had to be made, this was communicated well.
in short, I recommend everyone to book his or her trip to East Africa with SCB tours and travel, they are good at what they do and do just that little bit more than what you expect, so they deserve this good review.
solomon and abraham, thank you again very much for this unforgettable experience
