Jangwa Tours have been an outstanding partner before and during our trip to Southern Africa!!
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Outstanding Service, Reliability and Local Expertise
We recently returned from an unforgettable journey through Namibia, Botswana, Zimbabwe and South Africa, and working with Jangwa Tours & Safaris was one of the best travel decisions we made.
From the very beginning, communication was excellent. Johann took the time to understand what kind of trip we were looking for and helped us put together an itinerary that perfectly balanced landscapes, wildlife, culture and relaxation. The result exceeded our expectations.
What truly stood out, however, was the service during the trip itself. As anyone who travels frequently knows, things do not always go according to plan. During our journey we experienced several flight cancellations and schedule changes, and even had to rearrange part of the itinerary due to circumstances beyond anyone's control. Every single time, Johann and the Jangwa team were proactive, responsive and solution-oriented. Instead of becoming stressful, these situations were handled smoothly and professionally.
One particularly memorable example was a change that led us to spend a night at an astronomy farm in Namibia. It ended up being one of the highlights of the entire trip, allowing us to experience one of the most spectacular night skies we have ever seen. Turning potential problems into memorable experiences is a rare skill, and Jangwa consistently demonstrated it.
The accommodations, activities, transfers and local partners were all carefully selected and of excellent quality. Throughout the trip we felt well looked after while still having the freedom and flexibility to enjoy the adventure at our own pace.
In terms of value for money, reliability, local knowledge and overall service, Jangwa Tours & Safaris delivered on every level. Our trip was filled with incredible memories: the Namib Desert, the Okavango Delta, Chobe National Park, Victoria Falls and Cape Town, and it was reassuring to know there was a highly professional team behind the scenes making everything work.
A special thank you to Johann for his patience, expertise and dedication.
We would not hesitate to recommend Jangwa Tours & Safaris to anyone looking to explore Southern Africa, and we hope to travel with them again in the future.

Fuss-free
Johann made my trip to victoria falls a memorable and smooth sailing one. He was responsive, even on weekends. I liked that the tour details were on a app instead of pdf format, which was a much clearer and easier way to access. I enjoyed all the activities with Jangwa Tours in a seamless manner and trust that you would too
Always ready to explain and to solve any problems
Since the booking and troughout the trip they manage to provide all the information, all the possibilities, all their knowledge and even solve all the small and big problems that happened.
I cannot express enough my admiration to this guys.
Five stars.

Fantastic experience
David worked so hard to put together a trip that met our time, interests and budget. He was wonderful in communicating with us before and during the trip. Take his advice and do the Sandwich Harbor Dune Tour! One note of advice: do not rent a Suzuki Jimny, upgrade to a better car. I recommend this company to everyone!

Johann felt like a friend than a tour operator
Johann made our entire experience truly unforgettable. From the moment we booked, his prompt communication and friendly support made us feel welcomed and excited, even before we arrived. During the trip, the thoughtful touches like wine and handwritten notes made our honeymoon feel incredibly special.
We had a few unexpected travel challenges beforehand, and Johann went above and beyond to personally meet us, check in, offer assistance and advice, and even organise dinner reservations to help ease the stress.
Exceptional service and a fantastic tour 10/10. We highly recommend Johann and this tour company to all our friends and family!

Very professional
The tour that Jangwa offered worked like a dream. Everything was very well organised and all the arrangements were of the best quality.
What we liked most was that they are a very small company with very personal service.
If you have a question, ask it on WhatsApp and the reply comes back within minutes.
Hugely recommended

Five star tour organizer
David Botha at Jangwa provided a meticulously crafted itinerary at a very reasonable price. He used his expertise to book a trip which included extras that were not widely known such as the night under the stars. Namibia is an adventure, and where David and Jangwa excelled was in constantly staying in touch with us over WhatsApp and seamlessly adjusting the itinerary when flights got delayed due to weather or transfers went earlier than planned. All lodges and hotels that they booked were very good and we had an amazing experience in Namibia!
We highly recommend using this company.

David was amazing, taking care of us every day and making sure everything was perfect for our trip.
Communications with Jangwa were very easy, David was always available to respond to our queries and help us along the way.
Service was way above par, the lodges selected were amazing, and the whole trip was very affordable, considering all amenities, car rental, meals and tours included, and the excellent service provided.
This trip was a very memorable one, and we would not hesitate to recommend Jangway, and especially David Botha, to anyone travelling to Africa.

Best experience we have had with any travel / tour agent. Exceptional service.
David’s easy communication and willingness to work with us to design the ideal itinerary made him a stand out from the initial enquires I made. Through the process he was thoughtful, responsive, knowledgeable, adaptable and honest with his advice. Our trip was perfect. He had curated the perfect blend of accommodation and activities for an affordable cost, giving us a few additional options for add ons when we arrived - all with pricing so we knew exactly what to expect. The app they use, along with extra tips for what to expect in the various places, was the perfect guide on the road as well as for sharing with family so they knew where we were! He also kept in touch throughout the trip to offer extra help, and we had a surprise visit to put a face to the name when in Swakopmund. We could not fault anything with our trip or with the experience with Jangwa, and we would highly recommend them to anyone considering a trip - David proved they could tailor the experience to any level of assistance or independence desired. We will be repeat customers!

Excellent Tour of Namibia
We had a great experience with Jangwa Tours planning our safari in Namibia. This was our first time in Africa (two women traveling by ourselves), and we were not exactly sure what we were looking for and what to expect :) Johann tailored an amazing itinerary for us, which took us to the most incredible places we didn't even know existed! All the lodges and activities that he had booked for us were top notch!
We also appreciated timely responses and support before and during our trip, answering all questions, small or big.
We are ecstatic we chose Namibia as our "Africa introduction country", and we are very happy that we used Jangwa Tours and Safaris to help us plan this unforgettable adventure.
Highly recommend this tour company!
Thank you Johann, we cannot wait to go back to Africa
