Day trip Our day trip to Ol Pejeta Conservancy with Benuki Safaris was an excellent experience. From the smooth arangements to the well planned itinerary, everything ran seamlesly. The safari gave us a great opportunity to see wildlife in its natural habitat, including rhinos, elephant, zebras, and other animals. Our guide was knowledgeable, friendly, and attentive throughout the trip. We also enjoyed learning about the conservancy and its conservation work. Benuki Safaris delivered a professional and memorable experience. I would recommend them to anyone looking for a well-organized day safari to Ol Pejeta Conservancy.

Excellent We had a fantastic half day tour in Nairobi with Benuki Safaris. Everything was well organized from start to finish. They arranged our visit to the Daphne Sheldrick Wildlife Trust and the Giraffe Centre, and the entire experience was smooth and stress free. Our driver was punctual, friendly, and knowledgeable. We had plenty of time at each attraction and never felt rushed. Seeing the rescued baby elephants and feeding the giraffes were unforgettable highlights of our trip. We highly recommend Benuki Safaris to anyone looking for a reliable and professional tour operator in Nairobi. Thank you for making our day so enjoyable. We would gladly book with you again.

Incredible I had an absolutely incredible one-day tour in Nairobi. From start to finish, everything was perfectly organized and seamless, making the whole experience truly enjoyable and stress-free. What really made this tour stand out were Morris and Blessing. They are simply amazing. Both of them went above and beyond to make sure I felt comfortable, safe, and fully immersed in the experience. Their knowledge, warmth, and genuine passion for what they do made every moment even more special. You can tell they truly care about their guests and want you to have the best possible experience. In just one day, I was able to see and experience so much of Nairobi, and it left me with unforgettable memories. I felt very well taken care of the entire time, and everything was done with such professionalism and kindness. I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Nairobi. If you have the chance to go with Morris and Blessing, don’t think twice. They will make your experience truly exceptional.

The Perfect sun sea and safari break in Kenya The Benuki team crafted our holiday to absolute perfection. We were lucky to enjoy beautiful weather, but even beyond that, the combination of sun, sea and safari exceeded every expectation. The accommodation was exceptional—excellent value, superb service, and truly outstanding cuisine. Nomad Hotel, in particular, was a dream; the perfect haven for complete rest and relaxation. Chui is simply an extraordinary guide—calm, insightful and wonderfully knowledgeable. Even with a short safari, we experienced some truly memorable amazing and magical moments . They say Africa changes you, and we truly felt that. The passion, care and dedication of the Benuki team played a big part in making this experience unforgettable. Thank you

Fantastic ​Our 3-day group joining safari to Maasai Mara with Benuki Safaris was absolutely incredible! From the moment we were picked up in Nairobi, our guide was knowledgeable, professional, and went above and beyond to make sure we had the best experience possible. The group was a great mix of people, and the shared 4x4 made the journey fun and comfortable. We saw so many animals—the sheer number of wildebeest and zebras was mind-blowing, and we were lucky enough to spot lions, cheetahs, and even a leopard! The accommodation was comfortable and clean, with delicious food and friendly staff. This trip was an exceptional value for money and a truly unforgettable adventure. Highly, highly recommend Benuki Safaris for anyone looking to experience the magic of the Mara!
