We used Bench Africa to go on our first ever safari. Despite our lack of knowledge of exactly what we wanted from our safari, Julie at Bench Africa expertly put together a perfect itinerary for us which delivered a range of safari experiences ranging from sublime luxury to more traditional tented camps. We would highly recommend the Bench Africa team for your safari trip. We loved every minute!

Where do i start .... the trip was nothing but breathtaking. We travel a fair bit and this has to be THE BEST trip ever (over Europe any day of the week), our itinerary was amazing, the accomodation was stunning, our safaris were epic. Thank you thank you thank you for making my bucket list better than I could have ever expected

A great and trusted company to book your safari with! The service is so personalized and with a destination like Africa, there can be tones of questions and fears but there's no such thing as too much reassurance and handholding from Bench. Every detail went like clockwork on the trip and I would highly recommend using this company!

The Kenya ladies only tour was excellent in every way. Accommodation, animal watching safaris, food, service were all of a very high standard. Operated by Southern Cross Safaris, they have touring down to a fine art. Our lady guide and driver ensured that we were kept safe and well informed. The days were mostly taken up with game viewing but there was some leisure time as well as shopping.

We very recently returned from our amazing family holiday to Kenya, Zanzibar and Egypt. Each country was uniquely different and beautiful. It truly was an adventure that we all loved. Our tour guides were all wonderful and full of local knowledge, the hotels were all beautiful, I only wish that we had more time to spend there! Everything went smoothly, we felt completely safe and most of all the kids were never bored!. This was definitely a holiday that we will remember forever.

Simply the best at all levels,outstanding accomadation from lodges, hotels and glamping. The food was such a cultural experience so fresh with variety. We travelled Tanzania to Kenya. Saw the big 5 we were overwhelmed with the experience. Excellent guides and service. We were emersed in these countries and learnt so much about the animals and culture. The customer service from Bench is outstanding when I called with questions I was given support from knowledgeable staff speical mention to April you excelled yourself over the phone.
