This was the experience of a lifetime
We went on an 8-day safari as part of a family group of eight but by the end of the trip, our 'family' had doubled as the staff from Bumhi were so friendly, hospitable, informative and caring, we felt they were part of our group, not just the guides. We learnt so much about the people, wildlife and environment of Tanzania, we laughed, danced, sang and swam, and took back home a wealth of memories to cherish forever. We would highly recommend Bumhi Safaris for your introduction to the amazing place that is Tanzania.

Most authentic safari experience ever!
I have been on many safaris throughout Tanzania, Zambia, Mozambique, Namibia and South-Africa. In October we did a safari in Zambia and Botswana and I can honestly say that this is the most authentic safari I have ever done! We've travelled the national parks in two weeks and saw amazing sceneries and wildlife. Tendekay is an amazing guide with extensive knowledge about the wildlife. He is an excellent chef as well, it's amazing what he can prepare on a bushfire!

Authentic experience immersing in the land and culture of the Tanzanian people. A wonderful trip.
We were offered an unforgettable experience and this did not disappoint. The trip was a wonderful introduction to the country, wildlife and people that is Tanzania. Tende and the team made sure that we had the opportunity to get up close to the wildlife, taste the local cuisine, escape to the remoteness of the countryside and embrace the culture. How we fell in love with Tanzania which will always have a place in our hearts. The organisation, communication and the tour was geared to ensure we had a stress free experience where everything was provided to make our trip memorable.
The warmth of the staff,their intimate knowledge of the flora and fauna and love of their country enhanced our experience. I would never have imagined that we would live so closely to the wildlife in their natural environment. The sunsets and sunrises were magical - up close and personal to nature. What more could you ask for?
I would highly recommend this tour , this is something everyone should do in their lifetime.

I cannot rate this operator highly enough. We experienced a piece of Africa that was amazing.
The entire safari was a life changing experience. I still smile when l think about our adventure. Tende and his team became like a family to us. They showed us the real Africa and we got to see the day to day lives of the people of Tanzania. The safaris were amazing and they explained everything so well that we really felt we were learning so much every day. All elements of the adventure exceeded my expectations. The food, the drinks and the locations of the tents were quite outstanding.
I am keen to look at other safaris in the future and especially the new route through Botswana. I have read about this area and l know Tende and his team will provide another amazing experience.
I could not recommend them highly enough. Do yourself a favour and let them show you Africa as it really is. They are 10 out of 10!!!

A very special experience - many beautiful memories
Our 9 day family-group “glamping” Tanzanian Safari to Mikumi, Ruaha and Selous (including a spectacular and very interesting drive through the Uluguru Mountains) was one of the great adventures of our life - something we will never forget. At times our endurance and physical fitness were tested (we are not that young!) but in the end, it was really worth the effort.
Our special adventure was all made possible by Tende and his outstanding Tanzanian team from Bumhi/Afriroots. Each and every member of the team made us feel very special. Nothing was too much trouble. They gave us many, many beautiful memories.
We listened, we learned, we laughed and we enjoyed every minute of our trip. We covered a lot of ground and along the way we were continuously amazed by the knowledge and total feeling of safety and security conveyed to us by Tende and his team. We dined in style, we slept with the animals (well almost!) and we developed a feeling of closeness to a beautiful and special country. Our last night in Selous was a remarkable, memorable and indescribable experience.
The Dar Realty tour (also organised by Afriroots) that we experienced before our Safari, was very special and informative.

This is one of those rare times when I wish there was an option to rate 6 stars instead of 5. 2nd time out in Africa for a safari and was pumped to get in some camping and outdoor time,being from Canada getting away from the winter and enjoying the outdoors.Definitely glad that I decided to go with them again and glad I was fortunate to go for a second safari and delivered !!! On alot for wildlife

This safari was an experience I and my family will remember forever- for all the right reasons! Epic
The tour was well organised and we received all information in a timely manner. The staff went beyond our expectations in their service, their professionalism, their approachability and their attention to detail.
The staff had a wealth of knowledge about the environment and the animals we saw on the safari.
The experience left us all wanting more!
We cannot thank Tende and the staff on our safari enough for the time they spent with us, making it the trip of a lifetime.

Most Amazing Experience you can’t get anywhere else!
Bumhi Safaris exceeded my expectations and was phenomenal! Leading up to the tour, Tende was very detailed and timely with answering my questions. He prepared a customized tour that met my needs and I was able to see 3 new African counties within one week with all different unique experiences. Tende was on time to pick me up and had organized everything very well. During the tour itself, he was very knowledgeable and attentive to our needs. The tour itself was phenomenal and had a good variety of attractions. I was blown away by the scenic drives, safaris, and outings! It was a once in a lifetime experience I wouldn’t trade for anything else. Tende was also an amazing chef and surprised us wirh a fancy lunch. I would give this company more than 5 stars if I could!! Thank you Tende for everything!

Gourmet camping safari in Kalahari
My boyfriend and I have had the best safari ever! 8 days in the Kalahari desert camping in Khutse and Kgalagadi national parks in Botswana.
So authentic, so adventurous, so out of the ordinary. Just us and the animals, stunning landscapes, amazing colors and the best company. We learned so much about the wildlife, about life in the desert, about the San tribe people. And we’ve had so many good laughs. Omg. Did I mention the food? In the middle of the bush but Bumhi safaris cook gourmet dishes on the fire served with matching wines. Cold gin tonics and snacks by the waterholes at sunsets. What can I say? Just go! This will be miles above your expectations.

Great adventure, wildlife and wilderness tailor-made!
I was looking for a safari that was not the usual "good package for everyone", Bumhi Safari showed excellent communication skills, flexibility, experience, competence, attention to details, friendliness and generosity, an excellent treatment both in accomodation and service and above all safety and security.
