    The entire trip was very well planned. Although the drive from Nairobi to Samburu was a bit long, the guide stopped in the middle of the road and gave us a chance to enjoy the scenery. The Safarijeep was comfortable enough, and the large windows made it easy to take pictures. Every morning and afternoon game drive has been done, so that different animals can be seen at different times of the day. On the morning of the second day, we saw the lions lying in the shade of the trees in complete silence. I even saw some strange birds whose names I hadn't heard before. At the end of the whole trip, I felt that Samburu is really a hidden gem of Kenya, and I would never have understood it without this tour.

    Our visit to Samburu was a unique experience. As we left the hustle and bustle of the city for northern Kenya, the scene changed. Although the roads were a bit rough, the guide was driving with great care. The famous reticulated giraffe was the first thing I saw when I arrived at the Samburu Reserve! Their design is very different. Then I saw the long-necked gerenuk walk right past our car. The most exciting was the Ewaso Nyiro River. There I saw huge crocodiles sleeping together. It was certainly a great opportunity to see nature up close outside the city.

    I wanted the raw beauty of Samburu, not the hustle and bustle of Masai Mara. And that's when I found this package of Bencia Africa Adventure & Safaris. On the first day itself, we saw some unique animals that are not usually seen in other parks. On the second day we spent time with the local tribes - the guide, George, knew their language, so connections were easily made. All the arrangements, food, and service were perfect.

    I took part in a 3-day Samburu Safari with Bencia Africa Adventure & Safaris, and honestly, the experience was beyond our expectations. Our guide was very experienced and very well explained about the animals and the environment. We felt safe, comfortable, and well-organized throughout the trip. The Samburu region was quite different—much less crowded, more wild, and with a quietness of nature. It is a unique experience to get a chance to see special wildlife such as the reticulated giraffe, gerenuk, and Grevy's zebra. It was really fascinating to see crocodiles along the Ewaso Nyiro River and enjoy the sunset in that environment. I must say, if you want to taste the lesser-known but extremely rich nature and wildlife of Northern Kenya, then this 3-day Samburu Safari will be an excellent choice for you...

    Our three-day Samburu Cultural and Wildlife Safari was truly unique. The Samburu Game Reserve, it was exciting to see elephants, giraffes, cheetahs, and rare animals. But what was even more fascinating was to see and experience from close quarters the lifestyle and traditions of the Samburu people. On the last day, the experience of boating in the calm waters of Lake Naivasha, Jalahasti, and watching different species of birds made the tour more attractive. Thank you for the excellent management of Bencia Africa Adventure and Safaris. Are you passionate about nature and wildlife? Then this is the trip for you.

The luxurious accommodation gave us a taste of unique comfort after the daily thrill ride. Truly, it was an unforgettable trip, a dream safari arranged perfectly!
