"Thank you, Ben and your excellent staff, for helping us plan and enjoy a truly unforgettable trip. You were able to meet with us personally to plan our trip, customizing our vacation to adjust to our tight time schedule and our budget. We appreciated your thoughtful insight and recommendations on how to make the vacation run smoothly and how to maximize our time in Tanzania. Our guide, Ami, was very friendly, knowledgeable, and was easy to communicate with. We greatly enjoyed getting to know him and learning from him along the way. He was thoroughly prepared, even bringing along animal and bird books, and he was able to identify everything that we saw on safari. Ami had to work with our group of 6, which consisted of Grandma and Grandpa, us the parents , and our children (aged 9 and 11). Ami got to know each one of us individually and worked hard to keep everyone in our group happy. The safari vehicle was reliable and comfortable, which made viewing the wildlife an incredible experience. The trip to Zanzibar was a wonderful way to relax. Your staff took care of our needs providing us with tours of old Stone Town, prison island and a spice farm. Each guide we met was wonderful to work with and truly welcoming to our family. We also were able to experience so many things beyond the safari, such as taking a trip to a Maasai village, having dinner in a Tanzanian's house and shopping in a farmer's market. Being able to visit some of the organizations that the Ombeni foundation supports, such as the Nkoaranga orphanage, the Songoro Primary School, and the Angaza Church, were highlights of the trip. During our travels, if any problems would arise, you and your staff would promptly respond to the issue and figure out a solution. We always felt well taken care of. Before we left on this trip, we had some concerns about our safety and wondered whether we all would be comfortable traveling in this foreign land. We can now honestly report that this trip greatly exceeded our expectations! Thank you, Ben, and your staff, for making this a truly magical experience for our family. It was a joy and privilege to work with you. Brian, Tonya, Lydia and Elise Benz
