Excellent Safari
A few years ago we went on safari, but were very disappointed, because we didn't really see anything. When we intended to plan another safari, friends told us about Ute and Roho Ya Chui. They had been very happy with their safari so we gave it a try. Ute listened very well to what we want to do and see and out came a truly amazing safari. Everything was fantastic, accommodation, routing, the animals we saw and the service provided by Ute and the lodges. It was wonderful and we want to go again! Back home we heard from others, that they didn't have the trip we had and their financials were excessive!!

Review about South Africa by Safari Lover
South Africa is a gorgeous country with rich history and friendly people. The only downside to south africa is their car watchers in bigger cities like Cape Town. They are extremely aggressive and often times, demanding of tips. It became annoying having to deal with someone who would "watch" your car while you ran into the store and then have to tip them for fear they would become angry/hurt you.

Amazing Local Operator, Extremely Knowledgeable Guide!
After contacting many different operators in Kenya for a Masai Mara safari, I chose Bushbuck because they were timely in their responses, very friendly & cooperative with sorting out the logistics & booking, and offered a very reasonable price. After meeting our safari guide Joseph we knew we made the right decision! Joseph was extremely knowledgeable and passionate about the wildlife, plantlife & ecosystems in & around the parks, as well as the people, culture, government, business environment & history of Kenya. We had a very informative Safari and learned a lot about Kenya in the process. All of the accommodations were wonderful & they did a great job to ensure that we felt safe & secure throughout the whole experience. They even made restaurant bookings for us in Nairobi on the last night of our trip so that we could have a feast before heading off to the airport.
For the curious safari goers wanting to learn about the wildlife & ecosystems in the parks as well as more about life in Kenya Bushbuck will be a great choice for a tour operator. Plus it is locally owned & operated so you know you will be supporting a local enterprise!

Review about Kenya by gazthelob
Kenya is just the most fantastic place. The people are so friendly. They say you can't visit Africa just the once and I totaly agree. We have been twice now and I will definately be returning.

Up close!
I have wanted to see the African wildlife since I was a child and eTrip Africa helped me realize my dream. They took my list of species I wanted to see and designed a trip just for me and my husband. It would have been a nightmare for me to try to do it myself - not like travel in Europe and other places. But they did it painlessly for us and cheaper than I think we could have managed. The wildlife was incredible! We had great drivers/guides who knew so much and managed to find everything I wanted to see and get me close enough to really get a good look. We took 2500 photos and almost all are great. Some may even be National Geographic quality! I can't wait to go back again. We spent about 14 days and it was the most incredible thing I have ever done!

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.
