Through
a desire to share our passion for Africa with like minded
adventurers, we established The Bundu Safari Company. After
the first democratic elections in 1994, The Bundu Safari
Company was born. With only one minibus we began operating
safaris in the Kruger National Park. Gradually the company
has grown and now operates throughout Southern Africa. We
have recently acquired our own Game Lodge, situated within
the Greater Kruger Park area and have restructured our fleet
to include custom designed safari vehicles.
Through our innovative and exciting new products and itineraries,
we have managed to keep up with the growing trends,and ever
changing markets. Growing from strength to strength, we
never lose sight of our most important aim and that is to
offer personalised and value for money safaris without sacrificing
the comforts that would make your African experience a pleasurable
one.
The Bundu Safari team is African born and bred. As owner
run, we pride ourselves in service excellence at all times
and are members of the various tourism governing authorities
SATSA, FGASA, THETA, SATOUR and CAPTOUR. Operating with
smaller groups we offer personalised and reasonably priced
tours.
Our guides are friendly, knowledgeable and are qualified
and registered with all the guiding bodies. Most important
is that they have a passion for Africa and its people. Being
involved in the safari industry for 10 years now, we have
established a good working relationship with many of the
National Parks on our itineraries. We have been chosen by
the Kruger Park as a preferred operator to run a unique
wildlife experience within the park. Our safaris are fun
filled and energetic, overall a real African experience.
Magnificent
scenery such as the Kruger Park, Blyde River Canyon, Drakensberg Mountains, Kwa-Zulu Natal coastline, Swaziland, Cape Town,
Wild Coast, Garden Route, Victoria Falls, Okavango Delta
are just a few of the possible sights. Our varying itineraries
not only combine the important elements of scenic, cultural
and wildlife experiences but also add a taste of adventure
and in some instances pure adrenalin.
So whether it is tracking dangerous game on foot, the thrill
of jumping off the world’s highest bungee or rafting
one of Africa’s wildest rivers, we have the right
combinations to make your African experience an unforgettable
one.
