Hi there,
Sometimes it's really hard to choose a Safari Operator and since this is my second Safari trip, I must say that I was really happy with the services provided by Bushbuck Adventures and their Camp at the Maasai Mara. They are a middle range company and we did a 5 days tour with them through the Maasai Mara and LakeNakuru. We had the best experience with them!
They have their own Camp at the Mara, with the set tents, each one with its own toillet and shower. Nothing fancy, but very well organized and clean. Each tent can host up to 4/5 people with lots of comfort. Alice, the cook at the time was really amazing and the meals were a plus after coming back from the gamedrives. I am allergic to some type of foods and she made sure to set the menu in a way to please everyone in the camp. We felt it was a great plus staying in the camp, in the wild, it made a big difference for our trip, especially when we compare our 1 night stay at the Nakuru Lodge, which was very touristy and doesn't give you the sensation of being out in the wild.
The camp itself is very organized, with the sleeping tents of almost 20 square meters, and a main tent organized to be the meal's lounge and also the 'living room'. They have sofas and you can chill out at the afternoons and at nights after dinner. They also organise a fire place every night so people can come and share stories and experiences. There are also some day-toilets around the camp, it helps to save water a precious resource in that area.
Our guides, Kennedy and Simon were really attentive and showed us a great understanding of the animals behaviours and plus, showed good knowledge of the environment giving us explanations with passion and precision. When asked about something they couldn't tell fo sure, they would make sure to look for good answers in the guide books before stating anything.
