Excellent operation and tour guide
The entire operation was easy and effortless. All were open to questions and concerns. Hoppy, our tour guide, was great. Sleeping accommodations were good and Hoppy arranged several good restaurants for dinner. He was extremely knowledgeable and quickly established a positive relationship with the seven of us in the group. We had great success getting our photos of the big 5 and many other animals and birds. Hoppy was always getting us in terrific positions for a clear line of sight. Our "walk" was fun and informative. Kudos to the rangers for providing a great time.

Reliable, concerned, easily contact.
I have everytime got a good response from Bushbuck to my wishes. I have asked for a special tour and help with bookings and transfers, sood car and trustwothy drivers and I have got it all.
The only complyn is that the car the last time did not have good securitybelts for all the passengers.
Otherwise i am absolutely satisfied with everything.

Experienced & flexible meeting individual wishes & needs. Perfectly organized basic style safari.
Accomodations and itinerary were 100% arranged following the client's expectations. Over the complete 14-day-trip Bushbuck constantly took care of the individual needs of a family (incl. two teenage boys) while also enabling them to experience Kenyan wildlife and landscape in an intensive way - far above average. The safari style was authentic and basic but - due to a recognizable experience out of many years operating such tours - perfectly fitting the expectations we had. Expert personal guide/driver/staff made unique experiences possible. Perfect arrangements for ambitioned photographers etc.
I loved this experience
It has been for me a fabulous adventure in the midle of the wild life.

A culturally inspiring and adventurous experience of a lifetime!
I had the joy of going on a weekend safari hosted by Jafari and his colleagues to Ngorongoro Crater and Lake Manyara national park, and it was one of the highlights of my trip to Tanzania! They were all extremely knowledgeable not only about the animals, but also about the local Masaai culture.
On our drive out we stopped at a Masaai village where we were welcomed with a traditional dance and then got to tour their village, which to this day is still one of the most powerful cultural experiences I have ever had. Jafari’s team was mindful to orient us prior to the visit so that we knew how to gratefully recognize their hospitality. In each game park our guides knew exactly where to find not only the larger animals, but I was amazed at how they could spot birds and reptiles perched in trees or along river banks out of the corner of their eyes while (safely!) driving! During the animal sightings they would share bits of information about the animals, proof of their wealth of native expertise. They gave us time to get all the pictures we could ever dream of, also offering to take pictures of us ON safari – always an important picture to remember!
All of these things are an essential part of a safari, but what made the whole experience was how gracious, kind, laid back and truly “Tanzanian” the whole team was. The camping accommodation was comfortable and clean, the food prepared by the cooks in the team was DELICIOUS and beyond my expectations, and they made us feel welcome and cared for in the relaxed African style. I have recommended his team to my friends who are keen to go on a safari, and I plan to travel back some day to go on another adventure with Jafari! Wageni, mwakaribishwa, Tanzania yetu, Hakuna Matata!!
we had our lifetime experience with safari big5
It was one of the most amazing trips we had, from the hotels we were given, the food, hospitality and most of all his full time communication with us and the driver during the trip, incase of any problems he would solve them right away and made our trip just the way we wanted !
Beautiful hotels that we were given in serengeti, ngorongoro and karatu, not forgetting the tour drivers which we had who made the trip worthwhile.
I would surely recommend anyone for their tours in Tanzania , No one knows Tanzania better than Safari big5 (y)

Kalahari Adventure.
A special custom adventure (it was so, so much more than a safari!) for my wife and I. Part accompanied self-drive in 4X4 Hiluxes and partly in Wild Planet's customised VW Truck.
Apart from the usual first class Wild Planet food, service and Wildlife spotting we had some major desert adventures, the highlight was Ryan Organising the 4X4 trail in the Kalagadi for the morning of my wife's Birthday, she loved driving those dunes - then to cap it we saw lots of Meerkats (very close!) - her favourites.
Personally I loved watching the lions hunting in Pilanesburg and found the desert scenery absolutely breath taking.
We saw so many different species and had such a wonderful time that we have made our minds up to travel with Wild Planet again and again. (This is the third trip we have done with Ryan and they just keep getting better.)
If you want a tailor made Safari with the most knowledgeable guides I have met go no further than Ryan and Thale of Wild Planet.

Perfect Kruger tour with Dave
We went on the leopard crawl tour with our tourguide Dave. Everything was perfectly prepared and the guide was very funny and friendly. We went to the Kruger park for 1,5 day and saw lots of animals. Dave knew a lot about them and could tell us everything we wanted to know. We were just with our own group (5 people), so it was possible to ask questions. The accomodation was great, we slept well and the shouwers were okay.
We also did some other trips that day, everything well prepared and Dave managed it all. We had zero concerns during the entire tour.
We would really recommend to go on tour with Dave: you definately will see a lot, have fun with the guid and you will never forget the tour!
