The most awesome trip of a lifetime
This safari trip far exceeded all our expectations. The accommodations and meals were great. We felt totally safe and taken care of the entire time from tbe airport on. The people of Tanzania everywhere we went including restaurants, markets and all our accommodations were so friendly and kind and helpful and wonderful. The animal and park experiences were magical
Most importantly, our guide, Lewis (Rasta Man ) made our trip awesome. He took us to see so many animals and was so patient and attentive to stop and stay and watch what we were interested. He never rushed us, he catered to our intetests. He shared so much information about the animals, the flora and the local culture that made everything so much more personal. He is a special man and he made our trip awesome, a magical and unforgettable experience.
In addition, our local representative Danielli was also wonderful. He took care of everything for us in Arusha and gave us wonderful personal tours and attention we never expected.
Thanks to this tour and the people working it, we had the most awesome trip of a lifetime.

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.

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.

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.

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!

Accommodating
We had a great time on our 3 day safari in the Masai Mara with Shanjoy Tours. Beth was very helpful in putting our tour together and answering all of our questions. Patrick was very accommodating when we arrived and showed us gems around the city of Nairobi. In addition, our safari tour guide Rio was very informative on the Masai culture and the Masai Mara wild life.
