Thoughtful Service From Start to Finish
5/5

What impressed me most about Jambo Bwana was how personal and thoughtful their service felt from the very beginning.

While comparing several safari companies, many seemed to send standard itineraries and quotations. Jambo Bwana was different. They carefully listened to what we wanted and worked to find the best possible itinerary within our budget, which made the planning process smooth and efficient.

A special thank you to Faith, who handled our arrangements. She was always kind, patient and attentive. At the beginning of our trip, she surprised us with a small rhino souvenir and a handwritten note, which was such a lovely way to start our honeymoon safari.

Throughout the trip, we also found small honeymoon surprises prepared for us at different places, and those thoughtful touches became some of the most memorable parts of our journey. The barbecue set up for us in the middle of the Serengeti plains was especially unforgettable and one of the absolute highlights of our honeymoon.

Our safari driver and guide, Issah, was fantastic. He somehow spotted animals from incredible distances and was clearly very experienced. He also explained the animals, landscapes and local history throughout the trip, which made the safari much more meaningful. Even after the official itinerary ended, he kindly helped us exchange money in Arusha.

We were also grateful to Silvanus, who drove us to the airport the following day even though our Arusha hotel had been booked separately. Since we had some extra time before our flight, he even offered to stop somewhere for us and patiently waited.

Everything ran smoothly from beginning to end without a single problem. More than anything, we appreciated the kindness, flexibility and attention to detail shown by the whole team.

Thank you to Faith, Issah, Silvanus and everyone at Jambo Bwana for making our honeymoon safari such a memorable experience.

Caring, funny and knowledgeable – Jameson made our safari truly unforgettable!
5/5

Our safari with Jameson was truly wonderful and exceeded all my expectations. Seeing Africa and elephants had been a lifelong dream of mine, and Jameson made that dream come true – and even made it more special than I could have imagined. His warm personality, humour and incredible knowledge filled our safari with unforgettable moments. We felt in very good hands throughout the entire experience.
I'm truly grateful that our paths crossed. We are still in touch today, and I sincerely hope to visit Jameson again one day. I couldn't have wished for a better guide or a more memorable safari. Highly recommended!

Yotham organized a memorable day for our large group, combining nature and culture.
5/5

Yotham and Africa Scavenger offered us a tailor-made tour. They managed our large group (11 people) from start to finish. In the morning, we enjoyed a guided hike to Napuru Falls, where we were treated to a magnificent rainforest landscape. Thanks to our great guide, we were able to see blue monkeys, chameleons and learn about the local flora. After lunch at the coffee farm Elbejola, and its incredibly kind host, we learned about coffee cultivation and its manual roasting process. A memorable day!

Amazing 5 days Safari tour with best organization by Josh Dreamland Safari!
5/5

We (6p family) had amazing safari trip for 5 days with Josh Dreamland Safari.
North Serengeti, center Serengeti, Ngorongoro crate and Tarangire national park.
the trip was very well organized, service was excellent, accommodation was high rank, really everything was 100% down to the detail. include hot lunch food, Jeep, drinks everything was fantastic. Our Jeep driver, Moses was very caring and we felt very safe and comfort with him !!!
We loved and enjoyed every day, hour, minute.
it is one in a life time experience! don't miss it!
A small tip to everyone, i would extend same trip for 7 days, so we could have more time in Serengeti and Ngorongoro crater (transition between parks take few hours and long drive each).
Or alternatively, stay with 5 days and skip Tarangire national park.

Either way, do it with Josh Dreamland Safari! they are the best! highly recommend.

An amazing adventure!
5/5

My family of 5 had a fantastic 6 day safari experience across Masai Mara, Lake Nukura, Lake Naivasia and Amoboseli.

The animals were of course the highlight, closely followed by our fabulous & fun guide David, whilst the venues, vehicle, accommodation and meals were all good too.

Pre trip admin was this efficient, though perhaps a bit too minimalist. Pick up was on time and the trip ran very smoothly throughout.

If I were really fussy I’d say small areas for improvement are a) earlier and clearer advanced comms re visas, park fees and optional activities - and b) more transparency mid trip re additional payments for the lake tour. Small things in the context of an incredible trip!

Overall a fabulous first safari experience for all the family. Highly recommended!

It was the first time we went to Africa. The tour was amazing and everything worked just perfect. All guides were very kind and helpful. We didn't had to care about anything. We could nothing but enjoy. Thanks so much for all these impressive moments.

True luxury safari
5/5

I cannot recommend Jessica Mathews of Dancing Zebra highly enough! She planned an extraordinary 10-day luxury trip to the Serengeti, Ngorongoro and Zanzibar for us in October 2026, and every aspect exceeded our expectations. We have traveled extensively, and I have never felt so well cared for throughout an entire trip.

Jessica’s communication before we traveled was excellent. From the moment we arrived and received VIP assistance through Tanzanian customs to our final transfer between the domestic and international terminals in Dar es Salaam, everything was absolutely seamless. Our itinerary included several bush flights and ground transfers, yet we never had to worry about a single logistical detail. Being able to relax and enjoy the experience completely was priceless.

The safari lodges were almost beyond description—beautiful rooms, incredible food and exceptional staff. As impressive as the accommodations were, it was the people who made our stay unforgettable. The warmth, kindness and attention we received felt genuine. We were welcomed and looked after in a way I have rarely experienced anywhere in the world.

The guides (Mary and Robert) Jessica arranged for us in both the Serengeti and Ngorongoro were incredible and were among the highlights of the trip. Having such outstanding people guiding us made these remarkable places even more special.

This was luxury travel at its absolute best, with thoughtful planning and wonderful hospitality from beginning to end. Jessica brought everything together beautifully, and we could not have asked for a better experience. If you are considering a safari and Zanzibar trip, I would recommend Jessica and Dancing Zebra without a moment’s hesitation.
