Bench Africa Opiniões 

I had no major issues with Bench. But did they wow me? Go the extra mile to get a 5 star rating? No. There were no major issues, but a few minor ones, which makes me give them 4 star rather than 5. Would I use them again? Probably, but I also might look at some of the other operators.

I’ve used Bench twice and both times there service has been outstanding! I will use them again for my next trip next year

Thank you Lyndal - you gave us the perfect holiday with all your suggestions & recommendations. Loved the accommodation superb in four locations - transfers all worked well giving you the experience to remember for life. Thoroughly recommend Bench for a brilliant tailor-made holiday.

The lodges were all perfectly chosen to give us a great cross section of terrain & animals. All our accommodation was luxurious & extremely comfortable. The food was great & the staff at every single lodge was beyond outstanding. All transfers were seamless & made easy. Lots of wonderful surprises along the way too, like breakfast in the trees. If you have one trip in your lifetime, this is the one.

We booked our Honeymoon Safari with Bench Africa. The entire process was a delight and so seamless from booking, to the itinerary booklet to the actual safari. The holiday was perfectly planned out to suit us and made for memories of a lifetime. We started in Tanzania for a safari through the Serengeti, Lake Manyara and Ngorongoro Crater, and finished up in Zanzibar. All accommodation and food was perfection!

We booked Bench Africa for our honeymoon and from the initial enquiry the process was seamless, Bench really are the African experts and our honeymoon was an absolutely amazing experience.
Our driver consistently got us into the midst of the action and we really got to experience Africa and everything a safari has to offer
The accommodation was consistently amazing and the facilities and food were 5 star

We travelled to Africa as our once in a lifetime visit to experience a cross section of Southern and Eastern Africa. As a couple travelling with a good friend on single supplement, the three of us were totally impressed with Katelyn's ability to ensure that our requested 'in country' travel itinerary was arranged perfectly. We booked our own international flights before we chose Bench Africa to complete the 'in country itinerary'. Our trip involved a mix of various tours and independent requests/arrangements all booked through Bench Africa. All of these worked perfectly, with the accommodation, meals and transport (land and air) very well coordinated by Katelyn such that there were no problems with this relatively complicated itinerary. The standard of accommodation, meals and travel exceeded our expectations. Our 5 weeks included South Africa (rail, road and air), Kenya / Tanzania (12 day Safari), Zambia/ Zimbabwe and Botswana (land and air). Whilst we paid more than what we initially thought, Katelyn expanded our horizons on what was possible with the result that we achieved more than that we wanted to achieve for this adventure. This journey was faultless, value for money and a credit to Katelyn and Bench Africa. We highly recommend Bench Africa.

I was travelling solo and had a budget for my Africa trip. Katelyn at Bench Africa arranged my holiday around specific interests I requested and within a time frame. And it was well executed and planned from start to finish, nothing was left out from the timing of transfers, reputable accommodation at all 3 destinations, internal flights, prepaid meals, pre paid events etc. Katelyn was very thorough and any issues I had raised was resolved promptly.
I started at Cape Town, then in Kruger for my safari, then onwards to Victoria Falls.
Katelyn also reassured me that travelling solo in South Africa would be safe and I certainly can say I never felt uneasy or needed to be worried. This gave me the confidence to enjoy my holiday much more.

I highly recommend Bench Africa to take care of your next holiday to Africa, it will make it stress free and organised, so you can just relax and enjoy!

great trip,every thing went perfectly,no hiccups,keep up the good work, Terry & Chris Madgwick

Just returned from Botswana Wildlife. My husband and I had an amazing adventure on this small group tour. All the accomodation was great. My favourites being the Bedouin Camp and the amazing Elephants Eye Lodge where the elephants came to camp each evening. The tented chalets were luxurious plus the chef was fabulous. The food at all places was very good and of a great standard. The guide and driver did a great job of looking after us. Highlights: the animals, the lodges, sunsets, sundowners, the food, and travelling companions, the laughs, the campfires, gin and tonics.
Karen at Bench was very knowledgeable and organised our flights and trip and was great in helping us decide which trip to do.
Don’t hesitate, you won’t regret it.

My wife and I recently did Highlights of East Africa, followed immediately by Historical Jordan, with Bench. Both tours were excellent! The organisation was first class and almost all the hotels were very good, with an interesting range of properties across both tours. The guides were very good indeed and the way the tours were managed on the ground was outstanding. We had a wonderful holiday and would recommend Bench to anyone thinking of doing tours like this.
The only minor negative was the appallingly bad and inefficient service (in the restaurant and in Reception) at an otherwise beautiful property - the Sopa Lake Nakuru.

From start to finish our trip was incredible.
We are a family of 7 who travelled from Sydney to Johannesburg, Zambia, Tanzania, Kenya and a stop over in Dubai on the way home.
Julie from Bench Africa arranged everything, from flights, meet and greet, transfers and accomodation and every single detail was covered and ran like clock work.
All up we had 12 flights, some to very remote airstrips and without fail, there was always a smiling face at the other end to meet us and transfer us to the next destination.

In Zambia we were lucky enough to stay at Baines River Camp, this place is simply amazing. From the accomodation, the food, the staff, and of course our guide Weston, everything was 5 star.
Then onto to Tanzania, we stayed at Lemala Ngorongoro Camp and Sergengeti Wilderness Camp, both were beautiful with amazingly warm and friendly staff. Its hard to believe the facilities and food they provide in such remote settings but everything was so tasty and the tents were just perfect.
Last but not least we spent 2 nights at Karen Blixen Camp in Kenya - these tents are luxurious and very well appointed. The restaurant served up a fabulous selection of meals and the staff were very friendly and helpful. It was a little more commercialised than what we had experienced in the other locations, but we thoroughly enjoyed it and would highly recommend it to families.
Overall the entire trip was such an amazing experience for our whole family and I wouldn't change a thing.
Thankyou Bench Africa, you are an incredible team and we look forward to booking with you again.

Bench and Ultimate Safaris provided us with an incredibly memorable experience throughout Namibia. We were blessed with a fabulous guide, Tim who was not only extremely knowledgable but exceptionally caring, supportive, humorous and always put his 7 guests first. The accommodation was unbelievable. Every lodge was specifically designed to meld into the very diverse environments and never short of 4 star. The drives were long and hot but the geography was so different - from sandy and rocky deserts to seaside towns and animal laden reserves. Our safaris were spectacular. We saw so much that we'll never forget.

Wouldn't hesitate to recommend Bench Africa. Everything they recommended was first class. Transfers were excellent as well. Bench Africa were receptive to all my requests and put together an itinerary that met all my needs. Best holiday of my life. Bench Africa are a very reputable company and would definitely book with them again.

Amazing experience,more than we expected,not missing the African Massage,Excellent Guides.

Excellent advice and planning, good organisation of bookings, care throughout the trip and reliable local partners. We had a wonderful time. A potential debacle when airline SA Express was grounded without notice was managed with immediate rebookings before we were even aware of the problem. Well done!

Very professional company to work with. All aspects of our tour went smoothly.

Had the most amazing experiences with Lara Behrens - could not have asked for a better PR lady to head our media famil! The whole journey went above and beyond what I had expected. Kudos to Bench Africa!

A well-planned and executed trip with Bench Africa. From organising transfers to having the best drivers and guides to ensuring we saw the highlights of South Africa - everything was covered.
The accommodation was very luxurious and all dietary requirements were met with ease. I would highly recommend this trip to others thinking of taking the same trip!

Seamless safari experience. I would highly recommend this company. So professional and they are the experts on Africa, specialising in trips around the continent! It wasn't just the animals... it was the people.. and the experiences and the knowledge and those layers of detail that the average traveller is not privy to that made it such a fabulous experience.
