The best safari company out there
Eight of us did a 5 day safari after climbing Kilimanjaro. Bush 2 City is simply the best. Our drivers/guides where extremely knowledgeable, courteous, helpful and always happy. Even from the interactions with the guides from competing companies you could tell that our guides were the most highly respected. The took care of everything for us and if you had a special request they would try to deliver. They are also a locally owned and operated Tanzanian company -- so the profits stay in the community. They are also extremely well priced since there is no western company skimming of the profits. I was just looking at an add from a popular western company -- they want almost 4 times what we paid for the same trip. Excellent value. Excellent company. Excellent service. Excellent people.

Bush 2 City organized the perfect Safari!
I really enjoyed dealing with Bush 2 City. Through email they were extremely communicative and offered great suggestions to our ideas. The actual safari was organized very well. The guide was very knowledgeable about the parks and animals. The lunch was delicious. And the car was spacious and comfortable.
I would highly recommend using this company for your safari.

Perfect 5 day Safari - Tarangire and Serengeti
Thank you so much to Jackson and our guide Ali for coordinating an amazing 5 day safari! Everything was seamless. We were very pleased with the service, the lodges, the food...everything. Ali was fantastic at spotting animals, and we saw nearly 40 big cats (all 4 types, too) as well as 2 rhinos, and the great migration. I would definitely recommend Bush2City. I've used them multiple times - 2 safaris, 1 Mt. Meru climb, and will use them for an upcoming Kili climb -- every time it's an amazing trip!

Solo Summit of Kilimanjaro
Solo except for 6 porters, a cook, and guide ;-) Great experience. We slowly (pole pole) made our way to Barafu (base camp) on a 7-day trip. The ones who had the best time were the ones going slowly. No need to rush into camp. The reasons to go slow is to conserve your energy for summit day (7 hours of climbing) and dropping 10,000 ft later in the day. Many groups had an alpha person leading the group. Subsequent complaints of acute mountain sickness ensued from poor folks trying to keep up. Take it slowly! My guide was Joshua and Omari was my cook. Both did a great job. Kudos to Jackson (owner) for being a great person to deal with on many levels. Has a handle on providing great customer service. Even to the point of shipping my "lost" reading glasses to North America. That is over and beyond the call of duty!!! My last suggestion is to use the "rest step" and "pressure breathing" to conserve energy. If you need more info or need a brush up ask Jackson. He is well versed in conserving energy and making sure you have the best shot at summiting --even if your 65...

Best Trip Ever!!!
My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our Safari with Bush 2 City Adventures. We started to plan our safari 7 or 8 months before our expected travel dates. Wilson and Jackson were always responsive to emails even with the international time differences. They had great suggestions to meet our safari goals. For example we did not want to just sit in the jeep, we wanted to meet people in villages and tribes and learn more about the different cultures and traditions. They accomplished this by incorporating visits and interactions throughout our itinerary.
The accommodations were all excellent and the food was delicious and plentiful. We really felt that we got a great value and trip for our budget. Moody, our guide, was knowledgeable and really added to the enjoyment of our safari.
We would strongly recommend that you consider using Bush 2 City Adventures for your safari experience.

12 day safari in Tanzania and Kenya
We chose Bush 2 City to organize our 12 day safari which covered Nakuru NP, Masai Mara NP, Serengeti NP, Ngorongoro NP, Lake Manyara NP and Amboseli NP. We also had a day trek at Mount Kilimangaro.
From the first e-mail, Jackson over at Bush 2 City gave us a lot of information on the tour, what to expect, different options in order for us to create our fully customized vacation. the lodging offered was great, especially the night in the luxury tent in Serengeti NP where we could hear the lions roar and the elephants eating at night.
The 2 guides that we had were great and did all that was possible in order for us to see the most amount of animals and situations. our Tanzanian guide (Ally) was fantastic and also spoke English , French and Spanish!
Only slight downside: the quality of the vehicle for the Kenya portion of our trip (vehicle dated a bit, but it is due to the vehicle costs and taxes in that country). On the flip side, the vehicle offered in Tanzania was top notch.
Why pick a vacation with Bush 2 City: great staff that assures that your vacation well prepared and up to expectations before you leave. Cool guides that really make a difference while you are there. A local tour provider who is involved in the community: they help families send their children to school, pay fees and help gather clothes for locals. But above all, this is a small tour provider who is starting up, so they are doing all the small things so that you enjoy your vacation so that their reviews are good so that they can grow their business... pretty much a win-win for everyone. Our trip/adventure was worth every penny.

Really Enjoyed Safari with Bush 2 City
Had a great experience with them. Ali, our guide, went above and beyond a number of times. The airline lost the luggage for multiple people in our group, and without our guide and Bush 2 City we would have had a tough time getting it back. They contacted the airline, and hand delivered all of their luggage while we were in the middle of our safari. We didn't miss a minute of our awesome safari because of it.
We also got to see some amazing animals throughout the week, and they accommodated our requests to search for specific animals. We got extremely close to many lions, and even saw a recent kill. Overall great experience and the lodges we stayed at were great as well.
Professional and personalized service that delivers an experience "of a lifetime".
For a few years my wife and I and a couple with whom we have made several trips had talked of a Tanzania Great Migration Safari. Our overall planning concluded that we did not care for a "group" travel model, but wanted a specialized private trip for the four of us that would include classic safari vehicle travel (rather than air travel from lodge to lodge) and high-end "tent" camps with a couple of lodge stays. Research on sites such as tripadvisor led to a smaller company with excellent reviews called Bush2City Adventures.
Solomon Jackson quickly responded to our initial inquiry with extensive information about his company and services, and a range of choices to help narrow our specific desires as to appropriate locations, level and offerings of lodging services, what animals were of most interest, travel times from one area to another, and pace of our game drives. He was patient and provided experienced advice to guide our selections, down to discussion of the attributes we sought in the guide with whom we would spend the ten days out in the "bush". He also provided specific pricing on each option we considered.
We travelled with Ally, whom we came to value both as a person and a professional with keen eyesight and deep knowledge of every type of animal and its habits in the wild. He cared for us in all ways to make us comfortable and our experience rich. The "route" had been charted by Jackson to cover the two areas where animals would be found in numbers, based on the variable of where feed was growing dependent on rains, which resulted in a perfect match with our desire for Great Migration herds and the animals' "birthing" season. Babies of all types abounded and gave us photo opportunities one could only hope for. The tent camps were outstanding, with furniture and indoor plumbing providing great comfort, and beautiful permanent lounge and dining facilities to enjoy views, drinks, and dinners. The staff we encountered were invariably personable and welcoming, with an obvious focus on putting smiles on our faces and attending to all of our needs.
Ally, without prediction or pretension, delighted us with close encounters with scores of animals from the smallest birds and insects to the largest elephants and hungry Nile crocodiles. We scored multiple "checks" on encounters with "The Big Five". From watching a lioness stalk, wait still in the grass, and launch her lightening attack on a family of zebra walking by, to a huge bull elephant pushing down a tree to bring his meal to him, each day brought new wonders and excitement.
Bush2City is recommended without exception, and, having spent many years as a CEO, I predict that Jackson Solomon's career will lead to building a very successful safari tour company.

Awesome Safari!
We booked our safari through the Serengeti with Bush 2 City and could not have been happier. They were very accommodating and had very friendly staff. Booking with them was very simple and they responded quickly to our questions. Our driver and chef were really cool and we had a great time. I can't say enough good things about the company or the safari. I would highly reccommend Bush 2 City, and will certainly use them again if I go on another safari.

Kenya and Tanzania Safari plus Zanzibar
Bush 2 City did an excellent job planning a 17 day private safari to Kenya and Tanzania in March, 2017. Hotels were excellent. We had a private land cruiser for the entire experience with great driver/guides in both Kenya and Tanzania who were experts in the countries and wildlife. A great experience!!
