From the time of booking the experience with Bench was incredible. Every question was answered and at any time I felt I could find answers to my sometimes rather obscure question. The documents......well for anyone like me who is a bit of a nerd for nice, pretty and unique things I was more than excited to receive them. Information overload so that no stone was left unturned for my upcoming adventure. The trip was amazing as was the destination. It certainly allows one to immerse themselves in not only the culture and people but to totally be awe inspired each and everyday. Africa is an explosion to the senses and an incredible gift to the soul. My love for animals only grew as each day I was rewarded with incredible sightings and extremely humbling moments. The guides where an inspiration with their knowledge and love of their country. The lodges and tented camps where beyond my expectations and the tranquility and scenery was always an added bonus. I can certainly recommend Bench whom I will no doubt use again in the near future. As a destination I would urge anyone wanting a journey of a lifetime to look into one of these simply incredible itineraries.
