Good person
The safari was amazing! We tried to see as many animals as possible, and Festo was 100% there for us the whole time. Whether we needed something or just wanted to stay longer at a spot, he made it happen. Totally recommend Fest 100%! Hakuna matataaaaa!!!

Excellent tour from all points of view
It was a beautiful experience, thanks above all to Papa, a perfect guide and able to make you feel at ease always, always available for anything. He always manages to find all the animals! His way of driving the off-road vehicle is impeccable! Even inside the parks it is as if you were on a normal road. I recommend a guide like him to everyone. Thanks for everything Papa, wonderful person.

Amazing Safari with very friendly tour guide
We had a great 5 day safari, saw a lot of animals and the accommodations were always very nice with good food. Our tour guide Bariki had incredible knowledge of the animals and always made sure everything was going according to plan. All in all an amazing trip that I can totally recommend!

Unforgettable Safari with Bariki
Bariki guided us from 8 am to 6 pm every day for five long days—covering every road in the parks—and he never ran out of energy. With 15 years of experience, he knows the parks like the back of his hand and could answer every question we had, from animal behavior to ecosystem details.
He was always punctual, safety-conscious, and extremely organized, which kept our trip running smoothly. His friendly, down-to-earth vibe added the perfect personal touch without being over the top.
Overall, it was a very good safari experience. We’d highly recommend Bariki to anyone seeking an informative, enjoyable, and professionally guided Tanzanian adventure.

Very nice Safari
Pius is very professional and dedicated. Especially, he could identify animals from a long distance. For us, the rhinoceros was just a dot, but he recognized it. The 7-day trip was wonderful. We saw all big five, and it was a particularly happy safari.
Bushtop Kenya Safaris
We initially booked this tour with Viator the day before and was surprised to see that we could get into the elephant orphanage (it normally takes two days notice). About an hour after booking, Denis from the tour provider, Bushtop Kenya Safaris, contacted me. He said that due to the lateness of our booking (our fault), he could not get us into the orphanage and suggested we cancel with viator and book just the national park with his company. The main reason we booked the tour was to visit the orphanage. When we canceled with viator, they canceled our tour but Viator refused to give us our money back because we canceled. Denis had contacted viator and explained all of this to them on our behalf with no resolution. Denis somehow managed to arrange three tickets for us to the orphanage. He did not need to do this nor did we expect such effort, and it was amazing that he went above and beyond. The next morning, Henry, our driver, picked us up and we had a personal driver for the entire morning through the national park and then onto the orphanage. Needless to say, Denis came through for us and Henry was a great driver and guide. I can highly recommend Bushtop Kenya Safaris.

Extremely experienced - provided an excellent safari experience
I have done safaris in eight countries across Africa and this was by far the next itinerary and experience. It has a mix of everything. Waterfalls, boat trips, game drives (dawn, daytime, and at night), and walks through animal sanctuaries. We even got time for a drink in the pool. The camping experience was unforgettable. Nick has all the equipment imaginable. Nick and his team were fantastic. I couldn’t recommend them highly enough.

Perfectly organised, with friendly and knowledgeable staff, would 100% recommend!
The Safari was well organised and Obag communicated well with me from the start via WhatsApp which made it so easy.
Our guide and driver were so lovely, kind friendly and reliable which made the tour even better.
The Safari itself was amazing, we got to see Elephants, Giraffes, Zebras, Monkeys, Baboons, some lions from a distance, Impalas, Hippos, Warthogs and Wildebeest.
The guide and driver will do all the can to try and find as many animals as possible.
We stayed at Camp Bastian Mikumi which was 10/10, a cosy lodge with great food.
We definitely think it is worth the money and would recommend Obag to anyone. We just wish we did it for longer than one night as I think we would've seen even more!
Thank you Obag and our Guide and Driver for the most unforgettable experience.

All-round excellent short safari with a super guide
Dear James (our guide), Dear Denis, Dear Bushtop-Team,
Even if our Safari (Pick-up in Nairobi, two days Amboseli, two days Tsavo West), is already some weeks ago, we are still or even more super happy about this experience. Communication, organization, camps, driving&game-drives and especially James knowledge were super nice. James is not only a super friendly guide, great driver, human being, but also a walking encyclopaedia. He stopped for the smallest plants&beetles and knew so much about those (but also we were amazed of this - for people not interested in he for sure wouldn't be so much into the small things). The only thing that put a damper on an otherwise well-rounded and great experience was the tip issue at the end (James demanded more than we had set for ourselves and after research and we couldn't afford as a young couple, spoke of ‘previously communicated tip rates through Bushtop’ - which wasn't the case...). Apart from that, I can only continue to enthuse and would recommend James and Bushtop at any time!
