What our travelers say about us

Who better to talk about our journeys than those who’ve experienced them? Here, our guests share their impressions, adventures, and unforgettable moments with Mbuyu Adventures.

An unforgettable family trip through South Africa! In February/March 2025, I traveled through South Africa for two weeks with my three children—perfectly organized and personally accompanied by Pieter, the owner of Mbuyu Adventures GmbH. From flights and accommodations to safaris, excursions, and culinary highlights, everything was planned down to the last detail. Pieter’s calm manner and expertise gave us a sense of ease from day one. His knowledge of nature, culture, and history brought every stage of the journey to life. What touched me most was how attentive and enthusiastic he was with my children. Naturally, they were deeply impressed by the wildlife encounters and the generous meals 🙂 while I, besides the fauna, was especially captivated by the diverse landscapes and the beautiful wild coastline of South Africa! So if you want to experience the country authentically, safely, and with heart, Mbuyu Adventures is the perfect choice.

I was incredibly lucky to have Pieter as my guide on a journey through South Africa and Mozambique in 2005. A passionate nature enthusiast, he has extensive experience in Southern Africa. As a long-time tour guide, he brings with him a vast wealth of knowledge and expertise. I was deeply impressed by his understanding of the region’s culture, flora, and fauna. There are few places in Southern Africa he doesn’t know like the back of his hand.

When it comes to Southern Africa – look no further for travel support. I highly recommend Pieter for organizing your tailor-made journey, as he brings decades of insight and experience (even if that makes him look a little older :o) as a guide and manager. I’ve “circled” Southern Africa with him as my guide and have never felt safer or better taken care of. My personal favorite remains the Zambezi River. I’ve never slept better – than under the stars of the southern sky. Try it for yourself.

Katja Martin

I was on a tour with Pieter through Kenya and Tanzania just before the Great Migration in September. In addition to the first wildebeest, we saw not only the Big Five but a total of 58 lions in just 10 days! It was an incredible experience; we were well taken care of and still cherish the memories. As soon as travel restrictions are lifted, we’ll return to Africa with our children – and of course, with Pieter. Highly recommended.

Thomas Fux

We know Pieter from our very first tour through Southern Africa, covering South Africa, Namibia, Botswana, and Zimbabwe. At the time, Pieter was a tour guide for Drifters and did an outstanding job on this 4-week overland adventure. As the sole guide, he was responsible for everything – driving and repairing the truck, and providing guests with all the relevant technical and logistical information. He shared in-depth knowledge of flora, fauna, geology, as well as the moon and stars.

Sven and Maria

In the summer of 2024, we traveled through Namibia and Botswana with a rental car and rooftop tent. Pieter not only helped us choose a suitable 4x4 vehicle with seasonal equipment, but also quickly put together a well-thought-out itinerary, reserving suitable accommodations and campsites – all tailored to our wishes and backed by his personal experience. Even during the trip, we could always count on his prompt support from Switzerland whenever challenges arose. The many impressive experiences and the smooth process will stay with us as cherished memories. We wholeheartedly recommend Mbuyu Adventures – thank you so much!
