Perfekt - It was a perfect experience in Amboseli National Park. Everything went perfectly. I can rate the company, with which I've been on safari three times, as good and trustworthy. Thank you.

Nice Safari Experience in Amboseli - From Nairobi, we spent three days at Amboseli Safari. The trip was beautiful. The guide took his time and showed patience everywhere. On the first day, I saw a lot of elephants, giraffes and zebras. When the sun rises in the morning, Kilimanjaro mountain can be seen, it looks very beautiful. The meals were tasty and the lodging was tidy and cozy. The entire trip was peaceful and well-organized.

Dream Safari with Kilimanjaro Views - It was an amazing three-day safari. Elephants were so serene and majestic that we spotted a lot of them on the first day! The sight of a group of elephants walking in the background of Mount Kilimanjaro is still visible today. Everyone in our small group was friendly, and the guide was very patient and explained everything. On the afternoon of the second day, we saw the resting scene of a lion family - it was incredibly close. The sound of the fox around the lodge at night, and the golden light when the sun rises in the morning - all in all a movie-like atmosphere. This well-organized safari will make a place in anyone's mind.

The kingdom of ELEPHANTS in Amboseli and the magical view of Kilimanjaro - My Amboseli Safari with Bencia Africa Adventure & Safaris was absolutely perfect. Alfred answered all my questions before booking and was easy to get in touch with throughout the trip. Our guide, Timothy, was very knowledgeable and patient - he not only stopped to look at the animals, but also shared a lot of information about their way of life. One day he stopped us at a place where a lot of flamingo birds were together; the view was really charming. We could have taken the affordable option if we wanted to, but we ended up having the experience of living in a tent camp - comfortable, clean, and the food just felt like home. The excitement of going out on a game drive with the sunrise every morning is different. This trip made me fall in love with the beauty of Africa's nature and wildlife. I will definitely recommend this company.

Elephant Kingdom in Amboseli and a three-day jeep adventure in the shadow of Kilimanjaro..!! - As we set out from the hustle and bustle of Nairobi, only one thought crossed my mind - spend a few days in the midst of nature in Amboseli National Park, and if the mood is good, the snowy peaks of Kilimanjaro can also be seen! I loved the private safari, and Bencia Africa Adventure & Safaris did just that. The car arrived on time, and the driver and guide, Joseph, were very sincere and experienced. On the first day itself, we saw a huge herd of elephants, who were walking slowly on the dusty path together - that scene still floats in my eyes. My stay was in a beautiful lodge - quiet, comfortable, and surrounded by greenery. The food was excellent - a great mix of local cuisine and Western dishes. Every morning and afternoon, Joseph would take us out on a game drive. I didn't know how to fly when I saw hyenas, cheetahs, giraffes, and colorful birds". One evening the guide said," "Keep your eyes on the left,"" and what a surprise - a family of lions was lounging comfortably on the side of the road"! The best moment was in the morning, sitting with coffee in hand and looking at Kilimanjaro. The top of the mountain was slowly glowing with golden light. It was one of the most peaceful moments of my life. Those three days were like a dream. Bencia Africa's team has designed the entire experience to perfection. If you want to experience the real beauty, wildlife, and pure nature of Africa for once in your life, then choose this 3-Day Amboseli Jeep Safari-Tie. I'm sure I'll be back - maybe in another park, but the guide and the company will be the same: Bencia Africa Adventure & Safaris.

Amazing luxury Safari in Amboseli - I highly recommend Bencia Africa Adventure and Safaris. We did the 3 day Amboseli Safari and a 2 day Nairobi tour which was tailored for us by Mr. Alfred, the manager. He was easily accessible by WhatsApp and email, provided quick answers to all our questions and all the logistics went smoothly without any hitches. We had a good time, and his drivers/guides were punctual and polite. We are very pleased with the service and got good value for money. Thank you Bencia!

Definitely worth the money! - Great communication and itinerary. Our driver George was waiting in the lobby early! Very flexible on the daily schedule and always went over the next days schedule. We stayed at the AA Amboseli Lodge which was perfect. About 10 minutes from the main gate. The staff was super friendly the grounds are well manicured and clean and the food was really good. There's also an amazing view of Mount Kilimanjaro especially in the early morning from the pool area. I would definitely consider Bencia for my next safari!

First time safari goers - Overall, it was a pretty good experience. This was our first safari, so we were not sure what to expect. Our guide was knowledgeable and flexible to our schedule and priorities. We only had one complaint about our lodge, they wanted to charge for all beverages at meals, including water. We ended up just bringing the water from the room. It was definitely a memorable experience and we got some great pictures. The roads around and inside the park were interesting, to say the least.(I thought our potholes were bad in Minnesota) Unfortunately, we didn't get great views of Mt Kilimanjaro, as it was obscured in dust and clouds the entire time.

Good safari let down by some mis-selling - Overall I had a good safari with Bencia but there were some disappointing aspects to the experience. - I negotiated a price for the safari based on it being a private safari. I had expressed a preference for a group safari, but they told me there were no other customers who wanted to go to Amboseli on my dates. So on the basis of it being a private safari, we agreed on a reasonable price and I paid 30% deposit before leaving home for Kenya. However, the day before I arrived in country, they messaged me to say that another person was joining me on the safari. I replied that if that was the case, I expected a big discount as their costs per person were almost being halved. Well, long story short after some discussion I did get a discount but not really commensurate with it now being a group safari. - As I was heading to Mombasa after the safari, I asked to be dropped at Emali SGR station on the final morning, to catch the 9:30am train from there to Mombasa. They agreed to this, which was appreciated (well, the route between Nairobi and Amboseli goes through Emali anyway so it wasn't exactly a massive favour). However, I asked whether there would be enough time to do a game drive on the third morning, as it seemed to me there wouldn't be enough time to do one and still make the train in time. They told me there would be time for a short drive. However, at the end of the second day, the driver said we'd be going straight to Emali on the final morning, with no game drive. I feel I was a bit misled, and it would have been far better for them to be honest and tell me that given the demands of my schedule, a game drive on final morning was not feasible. And, therefore save me $60 in park entry fees for the third day. - Other than that, the safari itself was fine. The minivan we travelled in was perfectly acceptable, Kimana camp is basic but matched my expectations (we had a campfire on second night which is all I wanted!), food was plentiful and filling if not exactly very adventurous - but perfectly fine for a budget safari. Our drive/guide was OK but not exactly bursting with information on the animals we were seeing. He did gives us good, long game drives on the afternoon we arrived and then the whole of the second day.
