Wouldn't ask for more , you made our day beautiful
The timing was excellent, we were able to see 4 of the big five. Pickup time was well arranged. Keeping time should be your 1st name.

Dave is very personable, knowledgeable, competent, considerate, prompt, respectful and most helpful.
African Bush Explorers is a small company that offers very personal service. The owner is hands-on, providing the driving and the game drives himself. He is very knowledgeable about conservation, zoology and botany - always able to provide very pertinent and informative information about anything we asked him. He has a love of nature and really enjoys the game drives himself - never in a rush to get through the tour. He is also very prompt and reliable and a very good driver.
We have gone on many safaris with him over the past two years and look forward to many more to come.

Adventurous experience
Very smooth process from booking, pick up and drop off to the entire trip in the park. Very informative guides who got to teach me something new about animals and their different behaviours.
It was a totally worth travel experience with them.

Best Safari experience among the 3 I took in KE/TZ
First off, Daudi was the best tour guide we had during our 2 week stay in East Africa, we took a 2-day Amboseli private safari for a couple. We have taken 3 safaris from 3 diff operators and Kenya Bush was the best by far, all thanks to Daudi's calm demeanor, excellent communication skills in English, extensive knowledge of the animals (all the species, their habits, some fun anecdotes, etc. ) and the national park. Not just the safari, I also particularly enjoyed the discussions on culture, East Africa in general and the ways of living in Kenya, this was a wholesome experience. He was also very punctual and ensured we never had delays, he even went above and beyond to help us get some urgent stuff from a supermarket in the desolate location and also ensured we reached Nairobi on time for my wife's doc appointment.
Bottomline: If you want a knowledgeable safari operator who's very respectful and cooperative, look no further!

Posted on Jun 9, 2026Thank you so much for the incredible review, Beeshmoy!
To be rated as the best safari experience across three different operators in East Africa is a massive honor. Daudi is a gem, and I’m so proud that his wildlife knowledge, cultural insights, and willingness to go above and beyond made your Amboseli trip so wholesome and stress-free.
Thank you for the high recommendation, and we hope to welcome you and your wife back for another exceptional journey in the future!

Great Safari with many animals from a close distance
We when on a full day safari with David.
He pick us up at 6 in the morning in his very comfortable safari van.
Interesting the park is a bit tricky - remember passport and credit card (plastic) but David help us through the process.
The morning was full of animals: sleepy lions, cheetahs, zebras, giraffes, rhinos etc. At one of the park spots we got the opportunity to walk with a Masai - that was a nice break after sitting many hours in the van.
By noon David took us to a picknick spot with a beautiful view.
The Rest of the afternoon we watched crocodiles, Kenyan eagles, ostrich with their chicks and the list goes on. I can only recommend David as you next guide.

Best service, memorable experiences
We are return travellers to ABE and our tour guide David, this time travelling to Amboseli NP for a 3 day, 2 night adventure. The overall experience will be etched in our memories as one of the best of all time. David is most knowledgeable on matters of wildlife, local culture as well as an expert driver. This came into play numerous times, for example when we were confronted by an angry bull elephant - David reversed us out of trouble very quickly. The same combination of driving skill and knowledge of animal behaviour allowed us to get classic views of elephant processions, big cat action, giraffes, zebra and many other sightings. He filmed a family of cheetahs so well after first getting the prime position amongst all the other vehicles. Seek out David for your next Kenyan safari adventure!

It was an absolute pleasure guiding you through Amboseli. I'm thrilled that my knowledge of wildlife behavior and driving skills kept you safe during that intense elephant encounter and secured those prime, unforgettable views of the cheetahs and wildlife processions.
Having you back on safari means the world to us, and I look forward to welcoming you back for many more memorable adventures on the trails!

Very dedicated tour operator
Sam picked us up at home on time and after a short stop for breakfast, we set off for Nairobi National Park.
He had already taken care of getting the entrance tickets.
We saw lots of animals in the park. Sam is not only familiar with big game, but also with birds, reptiles and much more.
So we had an exciting day with lots of great sightings. Unfortunately, we didn't see any lions, although Sam really made an effort, but next time we will certainly see one!

Posted on Jun 9, 2026Thank you so much for the fantastic and detailed review, Arne!
I’m thrilled to hear you had an exciting day in the park with so many great wildlife sightings. Sam always takes great pride in ensuring a seamless, on-time experience, and his passion definitely spans across all our incredible wildlife—from the birds and reptiles to the big game.
Nature can be unpredictable, but Sam will certainly be ready to track down those lions for you on your next safari with us.
Looking forward to welcoming you back to the trails for round two!
