Perfectly organized in short time, we have seen a lot and the guides were super
The booking and communication were very fast and we were ready to book in 2 days.
Price was great and cheaper than any other offer, with similar lodges.
We were lucky to have James/Edouard as guides, they were amazing and again lucky - it was a private tour.
We booked the best of Kenya tour, that means also long driving some days, but its definetly worth it.
Plan some warm clothes for the evenings/mornings in the Masai Mara. ;)
For us it was a perfect week and we recommend Karibu Safaris anytime.
All the best !!

The Most Amazing Experience... Selous Park
My husband and I planned to take a much-needed break and I realized we had to try one of several safari experiences when we decided on Tanzania. I had a million safari options, but I got an immediate reply from Omar the owner and manager of this company, I knew we had to go along with him. He was so sweet, assuring and reliable. I felt linked automatically and moved on to prepare. He was still very patient in the arrangement, we chatted a lot online and after a few calls, it began to feel like friends already. For our permits, pick up at the airport and more, Omar went the extra miles to plan out of the package for which we paid for. It was about my wife and my wife.
It was our first safari experiences for both my husband and I and Omar had a lot of well-orchestrated experiences. A very therapeutic experience was our three-day stay in Selous Park. We would like to see it again. On the day of our departures to Selous Park, we were picked up by Sheika (Omar's beautiful wife) with whom we had already spoken and along with our tour guide a very gentle but deeply knowledgeable chap named Frank, so kind-hearted. We just had an incredible time together.
Sheika had planned a very VIP tour for us, with stops to sample tasty Tanzanian dishes from local cuisine. All in all, I have to say, they are a great company, and we had the one of the BEST safari experiences with them. We had an amazing boat ride on the Rufiji River; got to see hippos, elephants, tigers, giraffes, different species of birds and a variety of other animals. We picnicked up in the wilds and had the finest food and customer service in the little lodge we lived in. It was such a sad time for us to leave after three lovely days in Selous.
I will surely recommend their services for all.
Omar and Sheika are the absolute power duo, their customers service skills are top-notch.
And for the record my husband and I will be back for more lavish experience next time.
Thank you to the entire Connect Africa team and in particular to Omar, Sheik and Frank.

This was a phenomenal experience and our guide was informative and knowledgable. All superlative!
Our guide, Didimus Matto, with whom we corresponded several months prior, planned a safari based on our interests and the number of days we wanted. He guided us to optimal dates in late May to avoid the rainy season. The lodgings he arranged for us, a party of 4, were outstanding and places we would love to return to another time. Our wildlife outings were exceptional! We saw so many hippos, elephants, lions, hyenas giraffes, zebras and wildebeests, as well as leopards and cheetahs and all kinds of monkeys and impalas and cape buffalo and so much more! And then there were all the beautiful, colorful birds! We also visited a Maasai village, did a little friendship dance, all dressed in native garb - quite fun - and were invited into the chief's hut where we could ask him questions, which Didimus, our guide, translated. All together phenomenal! This was my 2nd safari with Bushland Adventure Travel, and I hope it won't be my last. The personal attention we get is incredible! Both safaris have exceeded expectations, and I can't wait to return!

Excellent experience
Jimmy was an quick and great communicator while we were planing our trip. He answered questions quickly. He did an excellent job organizing and guiding a wonderful trip to the Serengeti and Ngorongoro crater. The driver, Moses was very knowledgeable about the animals and knew exactly where to go to find the animals during our safari. The cook, Abdul, made food that was filling, tasty and delicious. We were very pleased with Swahili Paradise Tours!

Didi was informative, enthusiastic, answered each question & had a reference book with tons of info.
Before our trip each communication was informative and concise. Questions were appreciated and answered. The vehicles are in tip-top shape. We never worried for a second about being out on our safari. Each step of the way was calculated and wonderful.

This was my 4th Bushland safari and I can’t wait to go again! Wildlife, lodges, guides were A+++!
Bushland provides custom itineraries and extraordinary service from beginning to end. Pre-planning guidelines were especially helpful. Game drives were amazing and my guide’s knowledge of wildlife, Tanzania culture and customs exceeded all expectations. I have recommended Bushland to many friends and all consider it “an adventure of a lifetime!” I look forward booking another Bushland Travel Adventure one day soon!

Masai Mara is the best part of the itinerary
We were 6 photographers, had two land cruisers, and went to Kenya together. Our leader Mr Wang loves Amboseli, because he took nice pictures of the mountain and the elephant. My husband loves Lake Nakru, because he is a bird photographer. But for me, the best park is the Masai Mara National Reserve. Our driver was asesome, because he knew the best point of taking pictures. He loves animals and tell us everything about animals. He knew the sunlight theory which helped us to take tonnes of nice pictures. Our accommodation was good, but our driver and Masai Mara expereicen was the best.

It was my first time to use Bonfire Adventures and can't regret at all. All organized by Kibe!!
Everything was well planned. The support was pap! whenever needed and especially with the challenge faced during the president directive few days ago in regards to the lockdown. The team worked round the clock to make sure we are back home. Bonfire Adventures kudos!!!
