Dream come true

Great Safari Trip Thank you so much, Benson! The hotel was amazing. The food was yummy and the views were beautiful. I loved it! Our guide, Eric, was fantastic! He knew so much about animals and drove really well. He helped me see all the things I wanted, like lion families, cheetah hunting, and elephants near Mount Kilimanjaro. It was a dream come true! I can’t wait to come back again!

Exceptional solo safari - highly recommend Banok Safaris

I booked a 3 days solo safari to the Masai Mara with Banok Safaris, and it turned out to be the best travel experiences I have ever had. Everything was well organized, smooth, and tailored to my needs. My guide was incredibly knowledgeable and made sure I never missed a moment. The camp I stayed, Banok booked for me was very cozy and meals food was great. I highly recommend Banok Safaris to any traveler looking for a memorable stress free, and truly magical experience. I will correctly choose them again.

Our 12 Days Safari

Our 12 days safari with Banok Safaris through Kenya and Tanzania was truly the trip of a lifetime. From the moment we landed, everything was well organized, and we felt completely taken care of. Benson was friendly, and always made sure we were comfortable. We visited amazing places like Lake Nakuru, Masai Mara, Serengeti, Ngorongoro crater, Tarangire park and Amboseli. Each park was unique and full of wildlife - we saw lions, elephants, giraffes, rhinos, buffaloes, cheetahs and also had a wonderful hot air balloon over Masai Mara. We had the best guides who were very experienced which made every game drive exciting and informative. The accommodations were beautiful and cozy, with lovely views and great food. As a couple we enjoyed the romantic sunsets, peaceful campfires, and private moments in nature. Banok Safaris gave us a perfect blend of adventure, relaxation, and unforgettable memories. Highly recommend!

Our unforgettable first safari in Kenya

As a couple travelling to Kenya for the first time, we did not know exactly where to start and what to expect. We decided to contact Banok Safaris to plan our trip, Ben made sure our experience was nothing short of magical. He organized and booked everything very quick, from airport transfers, accommodation, and daily safari schedule/game drives. We visited the iconic Masai Mara, the game drives were breathtaking. We saw all the bigfive, giraffes grazing gracefully, and even cheetah print in action. Our guide Eric was incredibly knowledgeable, sharing insights about wildlife, and local culture. We loved our stay so much, Governors camp is the best, with stunning views and friendly hospitality. Banok Safaris did not just take us like clients, but they treated us like family. We highly recommend to any couple or traveler dreaming of a seamless, safe and memorable safari.

Banok Safaris provided incredible wildlife viewing with great accommodations!

We first found Banok Safaris by their inviting online presence. Their safaris offered exactly what we were looking for in a multi-park experience--with an affordable price tag. We cross-checked our initial impression with stellar online reviews. Tour Operator Benson Mutinda was extremely responsive to our questions, and accommodated specific requests with ease. Our guide, Eric, was very knowledgeable about the animals and park rhythms, and was connected to a guide network that facilitated encounters with some of the most significant animal activity at all three parks--Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru, and Amboselli. We had amazing, up-close views of cheetahs, lions, and leopards, as well as elephants, water buffalo, rhino, hippos, zebras, giraffes, jackels, hyenas, at least a half dozen antelope species, and key birds for my life list, including flamingos, ostriches, and 5 kinds of storks! Watching a family of big tusker elephants crossing in front of our vehicle with Mt. Kilimanjaro rising behind is an experience that will stay with me always. My husband and I, along with an adult daughter and her partner, enjoyed a private 6-day tour, with awesome scenery and game drives during the day, and relaxing, comfortable lodging at night. We highly recommend this outfit to anyone contemplating a first-time safari adventure or a return to these awe-inspiring landscapes.

Amazing Kenya safari with Benin’s. Once-In-A-Lifetime experience

It’s the first time we have been in Africa. And for sure we have a great one. First of all, thank you so much for arrangement of a wonderful 10-day safari in Kenya by Benson (Banok Safaris). He plan what we need and what we want according to our budget , his prompt reply solved our query whenever we have. Accommodations were comfortable with nice surrounding environments. Eric the perfect guide as driver who took us for an amazing and memorable adventure through out our journey. Samburu special 5 and Africa Big 5 got within 3 days game drive . He always brought us to a best place for nice photo shooting point and introduce us all about animals, landscapes and what we want to know. Our communication was good as friends. I feel so lucky to witness breathtaking scenery and being touched. We all satisfied with Banok safaris and hope to have another journey guide by them in future,

Every aspect of the experience with Banok Safaris was first rate. Benson did a wonderful job of communicating and planning, even being flexible to accommodate my schedule and preferences in visiting Meru. Alex was an exceptional guide. It was a great experience.

Trip of a Lifetime with Banok Safaris

We recently returned from an unforgettable journey with Banok Safaris, and we couldn’t be more grateful. Benson did a phenomenal job designing and customizing our itinerary to suit our interests and needs perfectly. Exceptional Accommodations Each camp and lodge we stayed in was unique and top-notch, offering a beautiful mix of décor, charm, and stunning scenery. The staff were consistently warm, gracious, and attentive—making us feel welcome and cared for throughout our stay. Outstanding Guide Service Our guide, Eric, was truly exceptional. From the moment we met him, he was welcoming, knowledgeable, and incredibly thoughtful. His driving skills and wildlife expertise made every game drive exciting and safe. On our very first day, we saw four of the Big Five within just two hours! Above and Beyond Care Eric’s kindness stood out when my aunt had difficulty getting in and out of the vehicle due to her knee and hip. Without hesitation, he went out and purchased a step stool to make things easier for her—a gesture that meant the world to us. If you're considering a safari, we wholeheartedly recommend Banok Safaris. Their attention to detail, personalized service, and genuine care made this a once-in-a-lifetime experience.

Spectacular Private Tour with Banok Safari. Driver, Douglas and Guide, Willie aka Double Whisky!

Private Tours, my second with Banok Safaris. We had 12 days of nonstop tours in 4 different Camps! Each day was full of lucky sightings of the Big 5! Exciting and couldn’t get enough of seeing all the best. Ofcourse, it all depends on the knowledge and expertise of the Guide and the operator! I would recommend highly! Kinjo Sister’s.

unforgettable 5 days safari experience

We had an amazing experience with Banok Safaris on our 5 days Kenya safari! As a couple, we were looking for adventure and a bit of romance, this trip delivered it all. Our guide was knowledgeable and friendly, the wildlife sightings were unforgettable (we saw the big five!), and the lodges were beautiful and comfortable. I was happy everything was organized well from start to finish. Highly recommend Banok Safaris for anyone looking for a seamless safari experience. We will be back!

They are knowledgeable about everything A to Z that you may need to enjoy your vacation.

We had a great 5 day family trip/birthday trip to the Sandies Tropical beach, for a very affordable price. Everything was taken care of by the amaizing staff of Banok Safaris, all we had to do is show up, sit back, relax and enjoy the amaizing services at the resort. Surely would recommend their services to anyone.

Banok is the best safari tour company.

I asked Ben at Banok Safari Tours to organize a very exclusive tour for us. They were all luxurious camps you can only get there by flying in a small plane. I never got my luggage from the US to Nairobi. Qatar finally delivered to the hotel we were staying but it got there the day we flew to Amboselli two days later. Ben personally contacted the airport initially and followed up on every detail. He picked up the two luggage that was delivered to the hotel, and took it to the regional airport and to the Safari Link desk. And, also convinced them to not charge the luggage fee. Great work! Ben, very meticulously handled this issue. Wow, I was impressed. Then a Camp personnel picked the luggage up when the plane landed in Amboselli. Ben actually followed up almost everyday to make sure we were happy and satisfied the entire 10 days tour. I’ve booked Banok before so know his working style. He’s a perfectionist and very reliable. I would recommend Banok to anyone who is thinking of doing a Kenya Safari. You will not regret it!!

10 Days of adventure

A 10 day safari proved to be a once in a lifetime experience. This was our first time in Africa, and we were deeply impressed by the exceptional service, warm hospitality, and attention to details provided throughout the journey. From the beginning Benson made the booking process smooth and reassuring, answering all our questions and ensuring that everything was perfectly arranged. Upon arrival, we were welcomed by our guide Eric, who become not just guide but a true friend over the course of the safari. Eric deep knowledge of wildlife, nature, and culture made every day fascinating and educational. He always made sure we were safe and enjoying every moment which turned each game drive into exciting adventure. The service at each lodge and camp Benson booked for us was warm and welcoming giving us true African hospitality. The entire journey was smooth, safe, and filled with memorable moments. This was more than just a holiday-it was a meaningful adventure that we will cherish forever. We are deeply grateful to Eric, Benson,and the entire Banok Safaris Team.

Good and Reliable Company

Me and my Friend went on a nine day trip in Kenya that started in Nairobi. It was supposed to be 8 days but because we had an extra day at the end of the trip, Mr. Benson suggested we make it nine days safari. We visited Samburu, ol Pejeta sweetwaters, lake nakuru, lake naivasha and masai mara. We had a really great time. Our driver Paul was very great, good communication and knowledgeable about all the areas and the animals. Mr. Benson is a very nice guy, very helpful and quick to response. The land transport were organized and the hotels were more than we expected. The lodges were comfortable and beautiful. If i go back to Kenya, i would not doubt in booking my safari again with Banok Safaris

We stayed in a great range of tented camps and hotels with amazing properties - all had wonderful staff that made our trip so memorable. We really fulfilled a bucket list dream vacation, and e can't thank them enough for their personal attention to detail in making sure we were not just happy but delighted! Asante sana.
