Bushbaby Travel Traveller Reviews

We spend just over two weeks in South Africa, we went on the most incredible safari, spend time in Cape Town and then travelled out to Franschoek & Stellenbosch.

Bush Baby made some amazing recommendations for us & also made sure our itinerary was seamless, we travelled around a lot during our trip but it was all super easy and straightfoward thanks to their planning and recommendations.

My husband and I had an amazing week at Lux* South Ari Atoll Maldives. After a very hard year, it was such a wonderful escape to arrive on the most beautiful island in the middle of the Indian Ocean surrounded by palm trees and incredible sea-life. What a treat!

Bushbaby Travel organised our trip to the Maldives. I have used Bushbaby Travel before and they never disappoint. They are knowledgable, friendly and professional, I would definitely recommend.

Bushbaby Travel were fantastic throughout the booking process. The agents on the ground in India were also superb and looked after us every step of the way

Very friendly and quick to respond to any queries. They made sure we had all the information we needed for the trip and were set. Bushbaby Travel really cared and made sure we had a fun and smooth adventure

wonderful

Well organised, hassle free, great service

We spent an amazing 10 days staying in Khao Lak Thailand, enjoying the sunshine, hotel, beach and local culture.

They helped us spend many weeks researching different hotel options and resorts to stay before we finally settled on the one we booked, which was just perfect

This was our fourth visit to the Al Bustan Palace Hotel bear Muscat. It’s not cheap but the surroundings and food were excellent once again and we enjoyed it.

We have used Bushbaby before and always found them very reliable and easy to deal with.

Travel to Morocco - Atlas, Marrakech, desert; stayed in great hotels, really family friendly. Our group of 8 includes one of my sons that has very significant disability that also had a great experience. Everything was prepared for him to participate

Good listener that understands our reality and criteria and proposes in an adjusted way; very credible proposals - delivers on what is promised based on direct exposure

We had an amazing holiday - which included a 4 night Nile cruise which we loved. We'd probably add on another night to the cruise (if that is possible) if we did the holiday again. The guide we had was fantastic in terms of telling us about the history of the country, sights and beyond. He also helped in getting us through the non-stop hassling from the locals, essentially telling/reminding us that you shouldn't even make eye contact with them, let alone respond to anything they say (as otherwise they keep talking to you/following you until you pay them off). Every time anyone carries your bag for a couple of metres, they expect a tip, then when someone else carries it somewhere else (i.e. from cab to hotel, from hotel lobby to room etc) you're tipping again. And we (and our guide) couldn't get small denomination notes as the central bank is apparently short of them, so the tips are disproportionately large. The sights were incredible, and the (big) pyramid was impressive beyond belief, and hearing about what had gone into making it. The history behind it all, the scale of it, and the rate at which they are finding new treasures is absolutely incredible.

Great interactions from our tour operator at every stage, provision of papers/details and mapping out the itinerary. Loved the cruise, so that was a particularly excellent choice on their behalf. The pre-holiday information did outline/flag the extent of the tipping expected, and how it's part of the custom/culture/expectation, which was very good to read and understand in advance.

My sister and I approached Bush Baby Travel knowing we wanted an activity holiday together to a country we had never been to before. We knew this was an important holiday to spend together following the death of her husband 6months before. I had exactly 10days leave left from work for January and the team found us the perfect holiday to Sri Lanka! The Bushbaby Travel team gave us options to discuss and decide on and booked absolutely everything. Our guide and a fair proportion of the activities, those they were not able to book direct they let us know the approximate cost and gave us guidance on the etiquette on culture and tipping (which we were extremely grateful for). The guide that they set us up with was exceptional, we didn't have to think about a thing which gave us the energy to do all the things we had asked for: Safari, climbing mountains, cycling through local villages, snorking with turtles, a zip wire through one of the vallys and much more. Sri Lanka is an exceptionally beautiful country and the people are wonderfully kind and friendly. I would reccomend visiting to anyone!

Bushbaby Travel really listened to our thoughts and ideas about what we wanted out of the trip and came us with all the information we needed.. Even which country to choose! They kept in touch in a timely way throught the booking process and coped with separate emails from my sister and I wonderfully. They prompted us on visa's and vaccinations. I can not fault the support, thank you so much

Beautiful beaches, temples, hill country and cultural trip

Bushbaby Travel have always found us the ideal places to stay and visit and deliver the perfect holiday every time
