A brilliant combination of fun, adventure, touring and culture!

Great holiday travelling from Hanoi, then exploring Tam Cos & Ha Long Bay, then moving to the central location of Hoi An & Hue, and ending in Saigon. Fascinating mix of culture & tradition, the Vietnamese politics of the North & South and an undercurrent of the history of the civil war. Peppered with lots of shopping, eating and beautiful beaches, and staying in fabulous hotels/resorts. A wonderful holiday which has many fabulous memories.

Bushbaby were fantastic. Nothing was too much trouble, a very thorough & consultative approach to tailoring the itinerary, then backed up with good processes and communication to ensure we were ready for the holiday and had all we needed. Their partner out in Vietnam was superb, and clearly work well with Bushbaby, together they offered a seemless service.

Namibia - A joy from beginning to end

We couldn't have asked for a better trip. Everything was organised brilliantly and we set off with a detailed itinerary that covered everything we needed to know, about the country, the places we were going to and the rules of the country.

Amy from 'Bush Baby' was excellent. Always happy to answer questions, offer advice on places to visit, for how long etc, and didn't let us down with anything that she advised us to do or places she booked us to stay at.

Family Trip to Brazil

We had an amazing family trip to Brazil in July 2025. Starting with a lodge in the Amazon rainforest (amazing guides and activities), then onto Rio de Janeiro (fantastic restaurants, beaches and sightseeing) and then to Iguassu Falls which are just amazing. All organised by Bushbaby Travel who were excellent as we booked very late and they worked hard to get us into the various accommodation (family of 5) to make sure we had the trip we wanted.

We have used Bushbaby Travel for many years now and they always come up with the best options whichever destination we have booked. This time we booked very late and they were amazing coming up with an itinerary which was exactly what we were looking for. Bushbaby have never disappointed - they are just great and so friendly and efficient.

We're so pleased you had a great Brazilian adventure, you certainly had an exciting itinerary so happy to hear all went well, and hope you've now built an impressive portfolio of Bushbaby holiday family memories!

Japan itinerary enjoyed by parents and teenagers alike

Really fun adventure in Japan, from the cities to Mount Fuji to temples, history and even a beach stay. Felt like we had really stepped inside some of the culture, with a tea ceremony, calligraphy class and meeting a trainee maiko

Rating for tour operator:

Very easy to deal with and understand the needs of a family travelling with teenagers, making sure that the holiday will appeal to all. Dealt quickly with a last minute request for one of our family to travel home early for another commitment. Make what end up being quite complex arrangements easy and straightforward to navigate.

We're so pleased you really enjoyed the different locations on your Japanese adventure, and that all arrangements went to plan too!

Made travelling to different places super easy

Cape Town, Safari, Mauritius. Multiple flights, accommodations, connections - and everything worked seamlessly. Bushbabies arranged the itinerary from start to finish, suggesting different options to suit our family. We couldn’t have been more pleased

Rating for tour operator:

Bushbaby, Amy, Abi and the whole team were excellent. Brilliant expertise from Amy to come up with relevant ideas, itinerary, venues and logistics which made sense and worked really well. Plus very responsiveness to queries with good advice given local experience. Would recommend both the trip and the tour operator without hesitation.

Istanbul with beach break

Stayed in fabulous hotel by Bosporus. Enjoyed public ferry service into centre of the city floating past amazing mansions and enormous ships. Fascinating time wandering around the ancient historic buildings. After a couple of days immersed in culture repaired to a luxurious hotel by the sea to chill in tranquil setting.
