Extremely Helpful and Great Service
Jumbari were extreme helpful in booking our trip to Chobe National Park in July 2019. I couldn’t have asked for better service in booking and during our stay and would suggest it using their company to anyone.
The only bit of which didn't live up to expectations was that it would have been nice to know in advance that all the activities would be shared with other guest. For example we had to share our boat cruise with about 50 other people on the same massive boat which was not what I was expecting. It sort of spoilt it a little as I was expecting for the price we would get a smaller boat.

Great safari with every detail attended to!
Time opened up for us on short notice for us to do a safari to Botswana. Using the SafariBookings.com website we identified several trips of potential interest and contacted the tour operators. Jumbari not only came back with the best offer, both for what was in the package and for the cost, but did so very quickly and most professionally, handling ALL the details. We only had to show up. And the safari itself was excellent, lion, leopards, even a pack of wild dogs hunting. We would definitely use Jumbari again -- and will be recommending them to friends.

South Africa Adventure
We have recently returned from our South Africa adventure where we travelled with Jumbari Family Safaris. Right from the outset the planning and communications were excellent and the final delivery was terrific - we thoroughly recommend their service. They advised us on the Kruger lodges and Cape Town / Stellenbosch hotels that would work best for us and our teenage girls (aged 14 and 17) - their recommendations were superb. They arranged a number of trips for us including whale watching at Hermanus - an experience the girls will never forget. The girls also enjoyed Cape Town’s Zeitz Museum of Contemporary Art Africa and the V&A Waterfront. Obviously the highlight of the trip was the opportunity to see Africa’s famous 'Big 5' - a truly fantastic experience. Thank you Jumbari for a truly memorable holiday.

Always quick to respond, organised, helpful and creative.
We travelled with Jumbari recently to South Africa and highly recommend their service. They knew exactly which lodges in the Kruger would work best for my girlfirend, daughter and I, and in Cape Town their hotel recommendation was perfect. Judy was particularly helpful in terms of co-ordinating a babysitter for one of our nights and she also helped make fun plans for our toddler! It was a great experience and I'm glad we used a family specialist.

They made traveling easy, stress free, and planned an amazing vacation!
My husband and I were finally able to go on our honeymoon trip after rescheduling twice due to COVID. The Jumbari team made the whole process easy and stress free. They took care of all the planning. They listened to what we wanted out of our trip and created an amazing itinerary that was exactly what were were looking for. We spent 3 days in Capetown, 1 day in the Winelands, and 4 days on Safari and Ulusaba. It was everything we could have imagined and more. The hotels were fabulous. Our guides were professional, kind and incredibly knowledgable. The Jumbari team was incredibly available and we would recommend them to anyone. I cannot wait to plan my next vacation with them.

Outstanding service during a challenging time!
We booked and paid for our Safari long before any of us had ever heard of covid. Five of us originally planned to go May 2020 and after anxiously waiting we were finally able to go in May 2021 and it was perfect in every way!
The entire staff at Jumbari was outstanding to work with during the booking and planning stages, but what really impressed me was how they handled the situation during covid. There were so many unknowns, but they stayed in touch during the long year of waiting and they rebooked for us without additional costs or fees.
They coordinated the details and logistics of covid testing and made the entire process stress free.
We went to Victoria Falls, the Panorama Route, Kruger and Sabi Sands. We loved the accommodations and planned activities.
This was my fourth booking of a company found on Safari Bookings and I couldn’t have been more pleased with the service provided by Jumbari. I will definitely use them again and highly recommend them as a trusted partner.

Fabulous safari in South Africa with Jumbari Family Safaris
We have just finished a 9 night trip in South Africa, arranged by Jumbari Family Safaris. We visited lodges in Sabi Sands, Klaserie and Timbavati Concessions. The entire trip was fantastic. Lisa and Zeena from Jumbari were excellent agents from start to finish! We were interested in seeing the African wild dogs and rhino, specifically, and we did have amazing sightings of these, as well as seeing everything else you could imagine on a safari!!! Our trip was planned out excellently with Jumbari looking after all our accommodations and transfers, which all went as planned. Lisa and Zeena kept in touch with us throughout the safari and even arranged a wonderful special dinner for our wedding anniversary. (Thank you both!).
The accommodation and food at each lodge was amazing. We could not have asked for better. The staff at all the lodges were very kind and friendly and really made us feel welcome. Our game drives were loaded with highlights and we loved every minute!

A trip of a lifetime made possible by Jumbari.
Our daughter has been teaching English in Lesotho for the past 16 months. My husband and I along with our two sons, age 16 and 21 traveled from the United States to Africa for a long awaited visit. Jumbari helped us set up wonderful accommodations at Klaserie River Lodge at Krueger national Park, Batonka Lodge in Victoria Falls and Imbabala Lodge near Botswana. Overall we went on 6 bush drives, 3 river cruises, 1 bush walk, a canopy tour in Victoria Falls and a tour of the falls. Everything was amazing. The rooms were perfect for us and our older children. The food was awesome. Everything Jumbari suggested was perfect for our family. Jumbari set up everything for us, including multiple transfers for our various outings, flights to Zimbabwe and our accommodations. Everything went totally smooth. No surprises and all of our transfers showed up on time and were very helpful. If we ever make it back to Africa I wont hesitate to use Jumbari again!
