Baboo Reviews

Highly recommendable

I recently had the most amazing family trip to South Africa all thanks to Baboo Travel From the moment we started planning our adventure to the very last day of our journey everything was simply exceptional One of the highlights of our trip was our visit to Soweto where we had the opportunity to immerse ourselves in the local culture and experiences It was a unique and eye-opening experience to connect with the vibrant communities of Soweto We explored the bustling streets interacted with locals and got a taste of the authentic South African way of life This was an experience we couldn t have arranged on our own and it added a rich layer to our trip that we will never forget The safaris we embarked on were also beyond our wildest dreams Baboo Travel took us off the beaten path to spots that were not overcrowded with tourists We encountered incredible wildlife in their natural habitats including the Big Five The thrill of seeing lions elephants rhinos leopards and buffaloes in their natural environment was truly breathtaking These off-the-beaten-path safaris provided us with an intimate and awe-inspiring connection with the African wilderness One of the key reasons our trip was so fantastic was our local expert Carla She was a true gem Carla s in-depth knowledge of South Africa and her personal recommendations made our trip extraordinary She knew all the hidden gems the best places to eat and the most enriching experiences Carla s expertise allowed us to do things we wouldn t have even known about if we had planned the trip on our own Booking through Baboo Travel was a breeze The platform was user-friendly and the entire booking process was fast and efficient saving us a lot of time It allowed us to focus on the excitement of the trip rather than the hassles of planning Overall I can t stress enough how amazing our experience with Baboo Travel in South Africa was From the local experiences in Soweto to the off-the-beaten-path safaris and the exceptional guidance from Carla everything exceeded our expectations We had an unforgettable adventure and I wouldn t hesitate to choose Baboo Travel for future journeys anywhere in the world There is simply no better way to travel Thank you Baboo Travel for making our South African adventure a trip of a lifetime

Baboo travel was like finding a gem in

Baboo travel was like finding a gem in the rough Understand that Baboo designs your itinerary and then aligns your plans with a local expert on the history and culture of the city country you re visiting A group of four of us went to Italy for the first time to visit Rome and Sorrento on a 10 day trip We are actually on day 8 right now but felt compelled to write this review prior to our return to Saint Louis Marianne was our trip coordinator and did a wonderful job in keeping us on track For example in Sorrento we did a boat trip to the isle of Capri One of our group was dead set on taking a sailboat from Sorrento to Capri Marianne politely pointed out that at that time of year late October that it could be cold and rainy with some pretty rough seas Well if she wasn t spot on I am so happy we took her advice Because it was rainy the seas were rough and it got cold Then there was ROME I can t say enough good about that segment of our trip Marianne selected Martina to be our local guide She was the epitome of professionalism and knowledge The first day was a walking tour of the city The next day the forum and coliseum followed by the Vatican museums on the last day Each day built on the previous She was marvelous not only in her knowledge but her uncanny ability to circumvent what seemed to be endless lines We would walk to the front of the lines and have a special gate or entrance to pass through Hahaha it was Martina s line She was great Marianne was great All in all it was a very pleasurable experience I suppose the tell tale sigh of a good review is that if I go to anywhere in Europe again my first contact is going to be BABOO TRAVEL

Best experience in Japan with Baboo

I recently traveled to Japan with Baboo and cannot recommend them highly enough The service provided by this travel company was exceptional from start to finish I was blown away by the amazing off-the-beaten-path experiences provided by Christine s team One of the highlights of my trip was visiting the Samurai an incredible experience I will never forget learning about their history culture and way of life was truly fascinating Another unforgettable experience was seeing the Snow Monkeys in their natural habitat this was an incredible opportunity to observe these amazing creatures up close and personal The beauty of the Japanese winter landscape was the perfect backdrop for this stunning encounter Baboo put me in touch with Christine and it was absolutely perfect in every way She was knowledgeable and friendly and went out of her way to ensure that my trip was everything I hoped it would be Overall I would highly recommend Baboo and Christine to anyone looking to travel to Japan or any other destination they offer They truly go above and beyond to make sure their customers have an incredible travel experience
