Mateja & Jurij embarked on an epic 4×4 camping safari in Zimbabwe. They had a successful and rewarding trip, and a fantastic review to go with it. 

22 Day SELF DRIVE IN ZIMBABWE

Here is what our client had to say:

“Now that we are back home for almost two weeks, I have finally found some time to write you a short note of appreciation. Our trip to Zimbabwe was a total success, in all aspects. I must say we were thrilled with the car and the camping equipment you provided. All was top-notch. We didn’t have a single issue with the car, it worked like a clock throughout the trip, even on the worst tracks. The only minor issue we had was a broken security latch on the spare wheel carrier, but with some improvisation, we solved that easily.  Also, both the delivery and returning the car process went smoothly and very professionally.

Once again, Bushlore has proven that it is the best 4×4 rental provider in Southern Africa, by far. We will certainly remain your loyal customers, and are already deep into a planning phase for our next two trips to Africa, probably next January and August.”
