Samurai studied various ryus of Jujutsu, Kyudo (Archery), Iaido, and Kenjutsu(weapon arts). The highest caste of samurai learned Daitō-ryū Aiki-jūjutsu, which, invariably, had the best unarmed techniques of all Japanese unarmed arts of the day. They certainly didn't practice judo or karate.
Remember, not only was karate a fledgling art at the time (the styles come from Jujutsu, which had just been formalized to coincide with the advent of samurai), just a Judo was derived much later from Jujutsu to be a non-violent martial sport. Kendo was derived from the arts of the samurai after the Meiji Restoration in 1868, so quite some time after the samurai era.
Bushido is a code of conduct, a way of life, a philosophy; it refers to the set of concepts, traditions, and precedents that provide an overall framework for the behavior of the samurai, and is not a martial art (Dee-dee-dee!).
Samurai couldn't have studied Aikido either, as hadn't invented it until the early 1900's by Ueshiba Morihei.
