Thank you Jiwe adventures for a well-organized safari
We booked a 7 day Tanzania Camping Safari with Jiwe Adventures and had an amazing time! We saw lots of animals very close, especially the lions have been fascinating! Besides the animals, the best part was our driver and guide Chris! He is such an awesome guy who was with us the whole time. It was like a little family for the 7 days and we where lucky to have him as a guide! Thanks for the great experience best days and especially a big thanks to Chris for being so motivated and interested in his job and in us in person! We would always book a such well organized safari with Jiwe Adventures again!

A wonderful Tanzania safari experience
We went on a five day safari organized by Edgar from Jiwe adventures. We visited three parks in the north of Tanzania which are Tarangire, Serengeti and Ngorongoro crater with two nights in Serengeti. It was truly a wonderful safari full of fun and surprises at every turn. We had a very good guide (Nick) who is professional and loves his job, he has often told us that you have come here to enjoy your time and be happy, so when I see you happy, I feel proud. The lodges that Edgar chose for us while on the safari were beautiful with different styles and very good service. We had a nice safari vehicle with a top opening so we were able to enjoy the beautiful scenery. We were lucky twice to see a lion hunting and killing a zebra at serengeti and a buffalo at Ngorongoro, it was a very amazing experience and I will never forget it. When we got back to the hotel, Edgar came to meet us and we went for dinner together. In fact, he is a very good person who listens and cares.
I highly recommend Jiwe adventures for anyone looking for the best safari experience in Tanzania.

Responsive and personal
I went on a 2 week trip that included a trek up Mt Meru and a safari (Tarangire, Serengeti, Manyara, and Eyasi) through JIWE. We were interested in booking through a local Tanzanian tour operator rather than a foreign run one.
This ended up working great as Edgar was very responsive and helpful both in the planning stages and then while we were visiting. He showed in person to pick us up from the airport, get feedback at the transition from trek to safari, and at various points along the way (like helping us get COVID testing). He was also very professional in dealing with some last minute airline flight cancellations and made my trip much less stressful.
The guides he picked for us for the trek and safari were both knowledgeable and very friendly, important when you are spending so much time with them.
Our Meru team of guides and porters we're great. We had multi course meals and lots of food. We didn't have any gastrointestinal issues like of the other tour groups on mountain. We reached the successfully and saw the beautiful sunrise over Kilimanjaro.
We saw all the big 5 on our safari and had the privilege of seeing a lion pride hunt and catch prey in the Serengeti. We were also continually impressed by how nice the lodges we were staying in were .
The trip was very smooth and I can't recommend JIWE enough.
