- AAx70000· June 1st, 2019We booked according to the offer in bambas catalogue. Let me say, what they promise is not what you get. We booked 4*, most of accommodations were 3*. You cannot check upfront, becausee you get the hotels via an app last minute, too. Everything is booked by bamba last minute by sub- or subsubagencies. Some tours didnot take place. Communication with Bamba was super complicated, friendly but not helpful. The accommodations sometimes do not fit the description of the catalogue. Local agencies try their best to fix what they can. Be ready not to get information what to do where the best, you have to collect info by yourself. After having the experience with bamba and g adventures, I will defi tively never again go with bamba but adventures instead.Show moreBamba Travel commented on this reviewDear Traveler, Thank you for sending us your comments and I want to extend our sincerest apologies for the experience that you had.

- MCMartin· July 3rd, 2017I have mixed feelings - through the travel I encountered a number of surprises, which, although did not fully ruin the trip, made it a bit unpleasant: hostel in the middle of construction site and some surprises with the booking/pick up. Together with other travellers, we also observed the attitude of bamba as nice but less problem solving. Overall, still a very nice experience.Show moreBamba Travel commented on this reviewHi Martin.
