A nice caring guy
For every safari drive, Nickson tries to find something for us to look at, he points to every wildlife that newly and oldly seen.
He is caring too, two of our companions are not feeling well with eyes and the stomach, he correspondingly drive to the pharmacy , take us there and buy the medicine which is pretty kind.
He will negotiate with the hotel with our concern of security( Staff going in the room for cleaning or putting down the net without telling).
He will adjust the problem at once when he knows them.
However, his briefing can be clearer. He will talk about what will we go tomorrow, for some schedule adjustments , it will be better if he can talk about precisely in advance and talk about why we are changing it. ( like there is misunderstanding when going to Tsavo taita hill wildlife sanctuary and Tsavo west national park).
And his campanion( according to him is his relative). As being told it is a private trip with only the guide and us. It is ok for us to to have someone helping with moving the luggages at the beginning of the trip( that is what he is always doing throughout the whole trip), but we should know it IN ADVANCE. We only know the man is going with us the whole trip when initiatively asked, having a feeling of encroaching of personal boundary, especially he took my potato chips and ate them all without asking(not sure whether he knows it is my potato chips). We told Nickson about the potato chips issue and it did not happen ever after.
In short , we care about the clearness on the details of schedules, which is the person following, the schedule adjustments.

Amazing experience
We did a 6-day safari in Kenya, visiting Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru, Amboseli, and Tsavo. The experience was amazing! We encountered all the animals we had hoped to see and enjoyed some incredible landscapes. Our guide, Sam, was awesome, and all the lodges were great, even better than we initially expected. Overall, it was an unforgettable experience, and I would highly recommend it!

Very communicative and delivered a great trip
Jacmiya Safaris truly exceeded all of our expectations. My wife and I did 8 days in Kenya. From the start Fredrick was always quick to respond and so helpful in planning our trip and attentive to every detail. Francis, our guide for the trip, was friendly and so knowledgeable. We booked as a trip of a lifetime and now are hopeful to return soon. Highly recommend them!

Amazing time in Masai Mara
My husband and I traveled from the US to Kenya for safari. We were looking for a raw wilderness experience to see animals in their habitat and that’s what we got in Masai Mara.
Our guide Nickson was phenomenal. They purposely match you with a guide from your desired location so you get to experience your Safari as if you were a local. They look after your every need and even though the time brief, you will leave your Safari a changed person with a new appreciation for all Africa has to offer.
Be prepared to spend time on the road with your guide. Which makes it all the more important who you choose for your African adventure! And I assure you, you simply cannot go wrong with Nickson and his team when crafting your Safari adventure!

The Operator is very organised and so attentive to client's requests
We booked Jacmiya Safaris for our trip to Maasai Mara, Amboseli, and Lake Nakuru, and it was an incredible experience. Our guide, Francis, was fantastic—enthusiastic, passionate, knowledgeable, and highly professional. He drove incredibly smoothly, even on the bumpiest roads, and had an amazing eye for spotting wildlife. He's too calm and very patient to our endless questions. Thanks to him, we saw and learned about so many different animals, and every item on our safari bucket list was checked. Jackie was also very helpful at the booking stage. She could respond anytime even at the middle of the night and really displayed her commitment to their clients.
We couldn’t be happier with their services and would highly recommend both Francis and Jacmiya Safaris to anyone planning a safari in Kenya.

Knowledgeable, Flexible, Great communication & Hospitable.
We couldn’t recommend Jacmiya Safaris any higher than is possible. From the very start of our booking journey to the trip itself. They have great experience and listen carefully to the type of experience you want and match that with your booking. They are flexible with your accommodation needs and worked patiently with us without pressure to pull our itinerary together. They had smart suggestions and all of this on top of the most amazing guide they organized for us resulted in the trip of a lifetime for our family. We had investigated with other operators but by far Jacmiya stood out for their hospitality and value. You were treated as a customer not just a booking. Thank-you Jacky!

They were helpful, quick with responses, accommodating, and kind.
This safari company is grand! They tailored a safari vacation to fit our budget and everything ran smoothly. Our guide, Jonathon, was excellent. We saw every animal we wanted and up close, too. Can't recommend highly enough.

EXCEPTIONAL INTEGRITY, TRANSPARENCY, AND OUTSTANDING CLIENT CARE
I am writing this review to express my deepest respect and highest recommendation for Jacmiya Safaris. As an international traveler I believe the true measure of an elite tour operator is not just how they manage a seamless itinerary, but how they respond when an independent third-party supplier fails to deliver.
During our recent trip, we faced a severe operational and ethical failure by a contracted premium camp. While the property’s management shamefully evaded their responsibilities, Jacmiya Safaris stepped in with a level of integrity and accountability that is incredibly rare in the modern tourism industry. The leadership took absolute ownership of the situation immediately. They demonstrated flawless professionalism, total financial transparency by opening their books, and ensured my family was fully protected and compensated out of their own pocket.
Their promptness, honesty, and unwavering adherence to professional ethics have earned my complete trust. Jacmiya Safaris is run by professionals of the highest caliber who truly understand the duty of care owed to premium clients. I highly recommend them to any discerning traveler looking for a serious, elite, and reliable operator in East Africa.
