A great family adventure in the Indian Ocean.
We stayed on the stunning beach at Flic en Flac, on the west of Mauritius. Due to the reef it is a safe beach for families. We used paddle boards ,kayaks, a pedlo and went snorkelling daily. The fish, sea creatures and coral were amazing. We explored the amazing scenery in the south west including The Black River Gorge, Grand Bassin, Chamarel falls and seven colours, as well as swimming with dolphins.. We went to Casela and La Vanille animal ...

The fish, sea creatures and coral were amazing. We explored the amazing scenery in the south west including The Black River Gorge, Grand Bassin, Chamarel falls and seven colours, as well as swimming with dolphins.. We went to Casela and La Vanille animal parks where we fed giant tortoises and giraffes as well as enjoying a fun zip wire. We then spent a few days at St, Gilles, Reunion Island. A beautiful lagoon where the water is so clear. The scenery was out of this world and it is worth the drive to explore the two volcanoes. Piton de la Fournaise (active volcano) where the surrounding area looks Martian and the three cirques from the dormant volcano which are dramatic, green and have beautiful waterfalls. Kelonia, the sea turtle observatory is also worth a visit. We had an amazing time, full of wonderful memories and explored a stunningly beautiful place so different to our home.

We knew roughly what we wantedvto do and bushbaby were great at drawing it all together - they linked with a good local operator to effect the details but their local knowledge was also very good - it always helps to deal with someone who has actually been there.
Thank you for your feedback, we're so happy to hear you enjoyed your adventures in Sri Lanka!

Bushbaby Travel were excellent from the first point of contact . They recommended a few lodges that would be suitable for our trip, then made all reservations and arrangements for transfers etc. I felt totally confident that everything was arranged as planned . Any questions I had were answered extremely quickly and comprehensively.

This is the second time that we have used Bushbaby to organise our holiday; the first time was a complicated itinerary in Sri Lanka last year followed this year by a beach holiday in Mauritius. Without exception, we have found Bushbaby to be knowledgeable, efficient and transparent with their prices. They are extremely good at assessing what location, hotel etc. will suit you as a family and have never once got it wrong. We could not recommend them highly enough.
Thank you for your kind words, we are so happy you had another wonderful holiday!





Amazing holiday - thank you!
A huge thank you to all at Bushbaby for organising our wonderful holiday in Thailand. The hotels and tours were all fabulous, incredibly good value, and we felt very well looked after the whole time. Beautiful country, beautiful people - and of course elephants!!

Bush Baby Travel. Provided great service and advice and importantly were knowledgeable about the places we stayed/visited . Got the hotel choices just right ! Even advised us, and talked us through, to book some internal flights ourselves as this would be a cheaper option.
thank you for the feedback. We are so happy to hear you had a great holiday, it was quite an adventure to share!





Fantastic family holiday to Thailand
Bushbaby booked us a mixture of culture, relaxation and wildlife experience in just ten days but it felt so much longer. Bangkok temples and markets, Phuket beaches, food heaven and snorkeling followed by an elephant sanctuary and a lake safari in a beautiful national park. Great transfers and superb accommodation throughout.

South Africa - Safari and Cape Town
A wonderful holiday. A magical horse riding safari in the African bush where service was so personal. This was followed by a traditional Game Drive safari where we saw so much wildlife. We then visited Cape Town and the winelands with beautiful beaches, scenery. We’re all desperate to go back.

Extremely helpful from the beginning of the booking process to our departure. Our holiday was planned carefully with our requirements in mind and we definitely benefited from your expertise and inside knowledge. The result was one of our favourite ever holidays!!
That's wonderful news Amanda that you had such a great time in SA. We are so happy to hear it!





Wonderful family holiday
Bushbaby Travel arranged our holiday accommodation and transport in South Africa. The accommodation they booked for us was outstanding and all connections were on time and stress-free. We are repeat customers as our first experience with Bushbaby 11 years ago was so good, and we made the right decision to book with them again. Highly recommend!
