Trusted and professional

We worked with Benson to organize a safari to celebrate our first wedding anniversary. He tailored the agenda to fit our specific interests and connected us with a beautiful conservancy. Booking was very easy and we received a detailed itinerary with lots of pictures that were true to experience. Benson was responsive and met us at the airport to see us off. He was easy to work with and we would trust him to support another trip in the future.

Benso Ndunyu is extremely knowledgeable, professional, personable and responsive to his clients.

Seremara Safaris provided us with the experience of a lifetime. Benson made the process of designing our safari effortless. He responded promptly with information and changes we requested. He added extra touches that went above and beyond what was expected. The package was affordable and great value for the money. Our guide Jack was superb. In addition to being extremely knowledgeable about the animals, plants and history of the parks, he was warm, kind and funny. We always felt safe and looked after by Jack. Driving, rather than flying, between parks afforded us the opportunity to see different areas of Kenya and Jack was very informative about the different tribes and cultures we saw in passing. Working with Seremara Safaris enabled us to have a very personalized experience. We were fortunate to have Jack and our vehicle just to the 3 of us rather than being in a large group. This meant that we could stop and watch animals as long as we chose. We were able to see the big 5, many types of antelopes, hosts of bird species, basically all we hoped to see. We also learned much bout their behaviors and interconnectedness. I highly recommend Seremara Safaris!

Amazing vacation!

I discovered Benson through this Safari Bookings site, but I also got 2 quotes from other travel agents that were recommended by friends who lived in Kenya. We wanted to go to Diani Beach after, and Benson was the only one who worked with me to find a direct flight to the coast and also negotiated with the airline to get a better price. All the other agents just said I had to fly back to Wilson Airport first, and weren't very flexible nor helpful. Benson also helped to book us the SGR train back from Mombasa to Nairobi, as online bookings require mPesa which I don't have as a non-Kenyan. The other tour operators just offered one place to stay all 3 nights, but Seremara had the option of 2 nights in the Mara and 1 night in Naibosho. To be honest, I had no idea what the difference was at the time, so I never would have considered this on my own, but I'm glad that Benson's tour package offered this. It really is great to experience time in Maasai Mara and a night in one of the adjoining private conservatories, because you get different experiences. Overall, my husband and I had an amazing time and we would highly recommend you travel with Seremara!
