The History of Bench Africa
The story began when Charles Bench initially arrived in Australia the best part of 50 years ago to play tennis from one continent to the other, while taking a break from his duties as Sales Manager for South African Airways in London. Making many friends along the way, he discovered that holidays to South Africa from Australia were almost non-existent. What a golden opportunity! With his love of the safari life and encouraged at being a pioneer, Charles migrated to Australia in March 1969 and opened his doors for business. Bench Africa was established.

Interest in South Africa exploded in the 70’s and for the next 38 years the safari company grew from strength to strength with Charles at the helm surrounding himself with a team of people sharing his passion for Africa and cementing Bench’s reputation for being the “Africa Experts”. When Charles retired in 2007, the company was sold to his ground operator in East Africa – Southern Cross Safaris – a Kenya based company with an even longer history of taking clients on quality safaris. Since then, Bench Africa has gone again from strength to strength, increasing their portfolio of destinations and variety of experiences offered throughout Africa and the Indian Ocean.

Charles’ principles of ‘an in-depth knowledge and passion for Africa’ will never change at Bench, so you will always find an enthusiastic and knowledgeable reservations team to assist with any enquiry.

Reviews

“If only I could rate you guys a 10 out of 5, then I bloody well would lol! I already have safaris that are through you guys, and they’re walking safaris. As I’m going to South Africa and Zambia later on this year in September, I have booked the Makutsi Walking Safari in South Africa, and I have booked the Robin Pope Safaris ‘mobile walking safari’ in Zambia. I still yet have to go there and see it all for myself whilst I pay a visit to those 2 African nations and do those walking safari activities. But from all the other photos I’ve seen on their Facebook pages, they look truly splendid and are making me just wanna go there already!!! :D”

 “Looks absolutely fantastic, want to book a trip straight away!”
“Likes too good to be real, well on my budget mayb.”
“FANTASTIC ! WHERE’S MY TICKET”
