Amazing Honeymoon Safari
My Brother went on a Safari in 2013 and although he booked with a different company he ended up having Quintin from Bubezi Safaris as his Safari Guide. As soon as he heard that we were contemplating going on a Safari for our honeymoon he said we should definitely talk to Quintin and Bubezi as he would ensure we had the honeymoon (safari) of a lifetime......and we certainly were not disappointed.
Booking with Bubezi was incredibly easy - this was all done with Andy and he was unbelievably accommodating. Not only did we do the Safari but we travelled on from South Africa to Mauritius, which we booked through a separate Travel Agent. We sent those details to Andy and he came back with the itinerary that would fit in perfectly with our additional plans and allowed us to be picked up by Bubezi at Johannesburg airport and taken back there and without the worry of making sure we made our flights - service at it's finest!
The proposed itinerary sounded amazing - jam packed full of game drives and relaxing dinners and picnic stops and to top it all off, as it was our honeymoon, it was only going to be the two of us Andy and Quintin - perfect!
Of course there is a lot of admin to sort out before going on Safari but again this was all made very easy with Andy. Payment was made and taken using a straight forward card authorisation form.
So once we had dotted the I's and crossed the T's, all that was left was to get married and get ourselves to Johannesburg! During this time contact was kept in order to make sure we didn't feel forgotten! Upon arrival in SA Andy met us at the airport and took us up to Kruger, but as it was our honeymoon then a little surprise was laid on for us.....an amazing drive through the Panoramic Tour, seeing God's Window and the Three Rondewelds.
We could go into so much detail about the next three days of the Safari but we would honestly write an essay! To keep it brief....Andy and Quintin made sure we were treated like Royalty!! With regards to food, we filled out a short form before travelling to let Andy know what we liked to eat and drink and all of these things, with a traditional South African twist, were prepared for us by Andy & Quintin. Despite the limited resources on hand the food that we ate was amazing and of the highest quality.
Andy & Quintin are so professional and knowledgeable about what they do every day but at the same time the safari was very informal so much so that not only did we come away thinking that we had had an amazing Safari, seeing all the animals that we wanted to see, but we also came away thinking we had made two new friends as well.
If you are looking for a bespoke, relaxing Safari then we cannot recommend Bubezi Safaris enough....in fact we are already saving our pennies to go back again and spend some time more time with Andy & Quintin in the near future!

"Adventure of a Lifetime: 10-Day 3 National Parks & Panoramic Route Tour!!!!!!!"
Outstanding private tour with Andy and Quintin as our guides. Andy was great with helping to customize the trip to our liking and he took care of every detail to include what we liked to eat and drink. We visited Marakele National Park, Mapungubwe National Park, Kruger National Park, a private reserve, and the Panorama Route and had an adventure of a lifetime. Andy and Quintin were both expert guides and kept the entire trip fun and interesting. We saw all of the “Big Five" numerous times and countless other wildlife throughout the trip. The landscapes at each park were varied and amazing. The many game drives and walks were exciting and informative. The meals that were prepared by Andy throughout the trip were delicious. If you are looking for a customizable private tour and a hassle free time from the moment you arrive at the airport, Bubezi Safaris is it. I would definitely recommend Bubezi Safaris for anyone looking for a "local feeling", relaxed holiday.

Fantastic!!!
Quintin went out of his way to show us the animals we were most interested in. He has a delightful personality and it was a pleasure to spend the day with him. We had a blast! Andy is the perfect host. I would not hesitate to recommend this company and would definitely use them again!!

Two days in Kruger park with Bubezi Safaris
We went in with John, a guy who knows the whole park like its the back of his hand. He gave us detailed description of every animal we saw and also some more fun fact about the park. To make it even better is the communication between the other people in the Bubezi Safaris. This allowed us to spot some awesome animals and at the end even spot all of the big five!
Really good trip, really good people and awesome animals
Excellent guides, friendly staff
Bubezi Safaris provided us with an excellent trip, hosted by knowledgeable drivers and friendly staff in general. Although we only spend two days with them I'm very pleased with their service.

The experience was amazing and our guide Derick (sorry if misspelled) was extremely good!
The experience was great. In less than 24 hours we managed to see all the Big 5. Our guide Derick (sorry if misspelled) was extremely eager to let us see all the animals and was as enthusiastic as we were in order to spot the animals.
Thank you for great experience!
Magnificent!
Good service & Highly experienced rangers. I went on three games and saw the big five, I think this is because of the expertise of Bubezi Safaris.
Nice experience
We have only been in Krugerpark for 24h, and our guide managed to show us the big 5 and a cheeta. Besides that everything was perfectly organized and well communicated.
