It was absolutely a wonderful experience
In June this year two of us (pensioners) approached African Bush Lovers to organise our trip to the Vic Falls. Wow! What a marvelous and “out of the box” experience it turned out to be. Their friendly approach, hospitality and effective handling of all aspects and arrangements are truly recommendable. All our questions, concerns and queries were handled with the utmost respect and assurance. Sharing their guidance and expertise we had remarkable and most amazing experiences on our trip. This is a trip one can only but dream about. Thanks to you all – you are tops.

Higly recommend African Bush Lovers
During June 2018 we, 4 senior citizens, entrusted African Bush Lovers with
arranging a sunset cruise, a trip into Chobe as well as a day excursion to the
Victoria Falls. All was professionally organized by Stanza and Kenny as well as
reasonably priced. We were picked up punctually at our place of residence
and treated to great experiences we shall remember.
Stanza impressed us with his knowledge of not only the bush but also of his
country for which he is a real ambassador.
I can recommend African Bush Lovers unreservedly.

Special_everything we expected AND more.
We spent time with Stanza in and around Chobe .. boat cruise, 2 nights camping (private, wild site .. special) and Chobe game drives. We loved the whole experience .. enhanced by Stanza's passion & knowledge. Truly felt that we came away knowing Chobe .. enriched! ALL of this further complemented by wonderful Kenny and the wider AfricanBushLovers Team. We'll be back .. for sure!!
Also .. Stanza and Kenny helped us with recommendations & other bookings around Botswana .

Experience simply magical ..... Stanza and his team gave us lifetime highlights and memories
All just outstanding! Stanza and Kenny and each member of their team went above and beyond to ensure we had the best time. Their attention to every small detail and the needs and requirements of each member of our group along with the stunning area we explored and discovered through them made it one of the best bush experiences we have ever had. A privilege and treat. Thank you Stanza and Kenny and your African Bush Lovers team!

6 day safari from Maun to Kisane
Our guides, Stanza and Charles were the best. Knowledgeable, fun, kind, organized, prompt, helpful, can't say enough! They know the region, the animals and their behavior patterns, the birds, and plants like the experts they are having lived in the area their whole lives. We had a group of 10 people and they picked us up at the airport in Maun and we stayed in 3 different bush locations for two nights each ending the tour in Kisane. The trip included great food provided at the local lodge, or from great chef's at the camping location. The guides gave us recommendations for free time options and local places to purchase handmade crafts. The pace on the safaris was great at we drove a lot, but stopped in scenic locations for lunch or tea depending on the day.
I would travel with these guides and company again.

Six days of animals, great food, and good times!
I’ve been on guided adventure trips all over the world - Stanza and Charles rank among the best guides of all these trips. Knowledge, people skills, and flexibility are their assets. Stanza even fixed my broken glasses! For a real treat, ask Charles to sing for you. After six days in the bush, my clothes, luggage and body were covered with the dust and good memories of Botswana. Upon returning home I was in no hurry to remove any of it. Thanks for a great time!

Simply outstanding service from start to finish, professional, friendly and a must for mobile safari
We had a simply amazing time on mobile safari in the Okavango Delta with Stanza, Moffat and Simba.
If you love photography, Stanza’s vehicle was well set up with adjustable padded armrests and central padded storage for camera’s and accessories. Plus Stanza was very good at positioning us to capture best availble lighting.
We were met by Stanza on our arrival at Maun airport and spent the night with him at Island Safari Lodge before setting out to Xakanaxa to start our safari.
Our Xakanaxa private camp site had been set up by Moffat and Simba in a beautiful setting, we were looked after superbly for 2 nights with great camp food, stories around the camp fire and comfortable camp beds along with our own camp toilet and shower. We had awesome sightings including Wild Dog, Lions and a Pangolin…plus many bird species.
From Xakanaxa to Khwai where we stayed in a guest house for 2 nights, once again with great food and comfortable lodgings. We had awesome sightings including Lions mating, Leopards, Elephants and Hippo’s plus many bird species.
Then from Khwai to Savute were once again, Moffat and Simba greeted us as we pulled into our private camp site which was our home for the next 3 nights. More amazing sightings with Cheetah and Leopard as our trip was just getting better and better.
Then from Savute to Chobe (Kasane), where we spent 3 nights in Chobe Safari Lodge, with game drives yielding more Lion and Leopard sightings and a river cruise piloted by Jacks delivering Hippo, Elephant and many other sightings. We also took the opportunity for a day trip to Victoria Falls which was very good.
Stanza is a talented and professional guide who really cares for the environment, his wife Kenny makes sure everything is planned to perfection and their team (in this case Moffat, Simba and Jacks) were brilliant.
We loved the Okavango Delta, we loved the people, we had the most amazing sightings and the service from Stanza, Kenny and the African Bush Lovers team was outstanding.
We highly recommend a mobile safari with African Bush Lovers and can’t wait to travel with them again.

Simply stunning and exquisite service
Had a day off in victoria falls with Jacks, who took his time to guide me through the activities. During my lunch i mistakenly overpaid at one of the resturant, but the following morning back in Kasane i notifed Kenny from African Bush Lovers she promised to follow up until with the resturant. She did exactly that until they refunded me though i was now a 1000km away SERVICE GOING EXTRA MILE

African Bush Lovers, Simply the Best
We spent outstanding five days in the Chobe NP. From the beginning the communication with Stanza was very responsive, he has done great complete service: transfer from and back to Victoria Falls, daily game drives, bout cruise, Elephant Sands. Must to mention also his worker, safari guide Jacks Jacks. He was extremely well organised, punctual, full of knowledge, very kind, with sense of humour. And he is fantastic to find lions!
If you are looking for good Safari agency, then African Bush Lovers is for you, we deeply recommend it. Because they are the Best!
