Fantastic Tour!!!
My partner and I chose the 8 day Amazing Northern Tanzania. We are 32 and 28 years old. We could not be happier with our experience!
We have traveled a lot of the world and Europe, and this Tanzanian experience is by far the BEST travel experience we have both ever had. We chose the camping option, and felt very close to the wildlife both in game drives and off game drives. Camping was the real deal. We highly recommend!
Camping in the Serengeti was an unforgettable experience. Thanks to Anwa (our guide) and Freddie (our chef) for taking such good care of us at all times. Anwa went above and beyond to ensure we saw the big 5, the best views, and as many animals as possible big or small. Anwa was extremely knowledgeable. You just need to do this tour! There are no words.
Freddie served us amazing food breakfast, lunch and dinner. Absolutely delicious. Freddie makes the best soup we’ve both ever tasted!!
Both Anwa and Freddie are fantastic communicators and this experience was beyond anything we could ever expected. Tanzanian scenery is simply breathtaking, and our tour were in complete awe of the animals and how close we were to them.
Thank you Foot Slopes, Anwa and Freddie for taking such good care of us!

Definitely a must see on your bucket list
Namibia is a barren country with vast expanses and a small population. The sheer size of desolateness leads to an eerie beauty that cannot be captured in photographs and humbles one with an almost frightening sense of mortality.
The tour was awesome and our guide Gideon was excellent. Gideon slaved from before sunrise to well after sunset to make our trip as comfortable as possible. The roads are rough and travelling times are long so a good guide is essential to break the monotony of the "African massage". Food was plentiful and the menus well thought out with Gideon cooking most of the meals over an open fire. The couple of restaurant meals were good. We did not see any of the "big five" wild animals but buck, birds and flora were in abundance. The trip to Na'ankuse just outside Windhoek to see the endangered carnivores was well worth it. Coming from South Africa wildlife was not our priority though. Accommodation on the tour was 3-4 star but in Windhoek I would only give it 2 stars. You need to research the accommodation in Windhoek else book your own.

safaris with kids - organised adventure and no problem at all!
We have been on safari with Bush and Game several times. the most recent trip with our two children (3 and 7 years) was a proper bush safari. but even in basic camping facilities, the B&G team arranged and provided everything we needed to enjoy the stay and the adventure. in all our safaris, we enjoyed that B&G took care of us, from customer relations, custom making our itineraries and booking, to the drivers and cooks, everyone was very friendly and helpful. we will book with B&G again! and again! :)

Wonderfull
South Africa is so beautiful it’s hard not to have a good time, especially if you love nature and animals. Everything is very clean, the people are polite and there is lots to see. I would highly recommend a visit.
An excellent holiday choice for Zimbabwe travel
I couldn’t recommend 'Experience Africa Safaris' more highly. This is an excellent tour company, that will organize trips to suit your interests and budget. They arranged superb accommodation, reliable car transfers, and connected me with a 'Natureways' canoeing trip to Mana Pools. Debbie from 'Experience Africa' prepared an action packed 2 week itinerary that resulted in a very enjoyable and diverse holiday.

Our photo safari was more enjoyable than we hoped it would be.
I rate our experience with Andre and Ettienne as excellent. Our booking with Andre went as advertised and far exceeded our expectations. Our guide, Ettienne, made our trip to Pilanesburg National Park fun and informative with a side trip to the cable car and to Hartbeespoort Dam. He picked us up at our hotel in Johannesburg on time, and made us feel comfortable and safe. Our lodging at The Kingdom proved to be modern, well-equipped, and very comfortable. The staff was friendly and helpful, and we were impressed with the buffet provided at meal-times. Ettienne even treated us to an evening braai at our cottage. We toured the Park with three separate Park guides during our stay, who were all exceptionally entertaining and knowledgeable. On all three days they were able to find incredible groups of giraffes, hippos, rhinos, elephants, lions, impala, wildebeests, and so much more, including birds, baboons, guinea fowl, and ... did I say, so much more. The scenery on our morning ride included an incredible sunrise with misty mountain scenes. The evening tour astounded us with a colorful sunset and the feel of traveling through the dark knowing wild animals surrounded us in their natural habitat. We ended our trip with a tour at the Cradle of Mankind before our return to the hotel. Additionally, Andre and Ettienne were able to assist us with obtaining a reputable driver to tour the Cape when we travelled to Cape Town. If we ever go back to South Africa, or other countries in Africa, we will definitely ask this company and its great guides for assistance in planning our excursion.

A great experience!
We have been on a 6-Day-Camping-Safari with Oltumure in june 2014 with two other guys and it's a great experience! Robert will organize everything to make you satisfied on your Safari. It's your decision how many days you want to spend, if you want to travel with other guests or alone and which National Parks you want to see. He helps you finding the best combination for a unforgetable trip! We did Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Serengeti and Ngorongoro and we don't want to miss any of these Parks.
And Oltumure is cheaper than others - why go to the more expensives? You will meet them every day by doing the same things at the same places! And the trip with Oltumure is more familiar, more personal, more individual. You can decide, at what time you want to start in the morning, or if you want to stay longer at a place you like. You can ask to go back to a place you found more interesting. You are the chief of your own trip, the guide is your helper for your decisions!
And everyone will see the same animals, because all guides stay in contact during the game drive and tell the others, when there is something spectacular to see. Our 4x4-Jeep was really good, maybe not that new as others, but comfortable and with the typical open-Roof, to stand up and watch 360 in all directions. Our tents were nearly new, big and comfortable as well. And we had with Samwell the best cook you can get!!! I think we all had a few kilos more after the Safari ;o)
We would choose Oltumure again and want to tell everybody else to do the same!
