Amazing person
5/5

Jackson is an amazing guide! He took my wife and me on an incredible safari trip in Tanzania and we couldn't be happier with our experience. Jackson is incredibly knowledgeable about the animals and the environment, and he made sure to tailor the trip to our specific interests. He was also very patient and kind, always making sure that we were comfortable and enjoying ourselves. We saw so many amazing animals, including lions, elephants, and giraffes, and Jackson was able to provide us with interesting facts and information about each one. We highly recommend Jackson as a guide for anyone looking to go on a safari trip in Tanzania - he truly made our experience unforgettable.

Great safari
5/5

We had a great 5 day safari with John (the Masai;) ) who was a great driver and who could spot animals almost from the behind of the horizon :) we saw the big-5 as well as ton of other animals. Jackson organized the whole trip - he was very responsive and catered to our needs. Lodges we stayed in were well prepared and we're more than sufficient for us. If you have any questions just submit your inquiry and contact Jackson directly.

Knowledgeable and driven tour guide
5/5

Jackson, was an absolute pleasure. He was accommodating and driven. He keeps himself updated and ensured that we saw the big 5. He was passionate about giving our group a complete safari experience.
I remember a day when we were tired and would have been happy to retire early, but for Jackson’s insistence. We ended up seeing a leopard and her cub.
I would recommend Jackson to all who want a wholesome experience. I hope to send my kids on a safari but only if Jackson will be their guide.

Amazing, resourceful and very knowledgable!!!
5/5

Four of us went on a 5 day Safari tour with Jackson at Tanzania Juvenile safaris! It was one of the most amazing tours of our lives… ! Everything right from the warmest welcome at the airport and taking care of every small need of ours to the majestic Safari!!! Everyday Jackson took extra efforts to ensure we got a complete view of the game reserves we covered. The number of animals we sighted all thanks to him as well as the perfect picture spots has made this the most memorable jungle tours of all times! He is extremely patient with all kinds of questions, very knowledgable and very helpful! Very good with coordination and file a smooth booking process too! Wouldn’t do the Safari with anyone else!! Thank you Jackson👍

Superstar Jackson - the man with a golden touch
5/5

What a wonderful 3 days spent with Jackson (Tanzania Juvenile Safari). Very professional right from the start, there was a personal touch to everything - game viewing, camp stays, food preferences and pacing our 3 days. Jackson just seemed to manage everything we came to see - the lion pride, witnessing a kill, Wilde beasr, giraffe, antelope, buffalo,elephants and even crocodiles and hippos at the swamp.
Great value for our time and resource - highly recommended
Thanks Jackson and look forward to meeting you again soon

Unforgettable Safari Adventure – A Must-Try Experience
5/5

In just three words: it was perfect! I'm thrilled to share my incredible journey with Jackson and his amazing team. They've truly mastered the art of crafting a safari that's nothing short of magical. From the get-go, even before we set foot in Tanzania, Jackson was there, readily addressing all our questions through email and WhatsApp. His infectious excitement had us counting down the days to our Tanzania escapade!

As soon as we arrived, Jackson's team was right on cue at the airport, setting the tone for a seamlessly organized experience from start to finish.

Now, onto the safari itself – prepare to be blown away. Jackson seems to have this innate sense of timing, creating an environment where every moment feels just right. We never felt hurried, and his knowledge of the natural world is astonishing. His passion for what he does is truly inspiring and adds a whole new dimension to the experience.

And let's not forget the accommodations – each one was a gem, providing a cozy haven after those exhilarating game drives. But the pinnacle had to be the two nights spent in a Serengeti camp – a true pinch-me moment that transported us to another world.

For anyone even remotely considering a safari, I can't stress this enough: go with Jackson and his team. They turned my trip into an unforgettable adventure that was not just about wildlife, but also about learning, laughter, and forging incredible memories. This is an experience that I wholeheartedly recommend to anyone seeking a taste of wonder, guided by a team that truly loves what they do.

Overall a great guide! ; Jackson the Great
5/5

Being away for a Safari with my family and having Jackson as our Guide, was an amazing experience! Always could count on him a 1000%. From the pick up at the airport till the last day we enjoyed his company and cheerful and joyous Spirit. He is a Master at spotting animals for we have seen them ALL.; from very close-by and in different circumstances, like hunting/playful/mating and feeding cubs. It was mezmerizing! Also his knowledge about wildlife is amazing. Ánd he introduced us into the world of Maasai and Tanzanian Culture, given his own background as a Masaai. I will definately recommend him if you want to have the time of your life at Safari !

The best tour operator you could wish for
5/5

We just returned from an 11-day trip with Juvenile safari’s with Jackson as our guide. It was an incredible experience. We saw so many animals (also from up close), because Jackson has a very good eyesight and great amount of knowledge about the animals and the environment. Furthermore, his enthusiasm made us fall in love with Tanzania even more.

After a day of rest from a night flight, we started with a trip to the Materuni waterfalls and a coffee tour. It was a nice starter of the trip. We had the time to adjust to our new environment, had a nice time outdoors (it is not a hard walk (around 45 minutes to an hour oneway), but it can be slippery) and also had a glimpse of the Tanzanian culture due do the traditional way of making coffee. We also had a great lunch, with surprisingly delicious traditional food.

Then we started with the real safari. We went to Tarangire and the day after to Lake Manyara. It is amazing how many animals you can see in just 2 days! And it is unbelievable that we got so close to them (without really disturbing them), especially to the elephants. We also encountered 1 elephant that was a little bit aggressive, but Jackson stayed calm and knew exactly what to do. Even other guides radioed Jackson to ask him what to do, as they panicked. So all in all, we were safe and the elephant just walked away.

We had a short break from the safari and we went to Lake Natron. An incredibly beautiful drive and a mesmerizing stay in an eco lodge run by the Maasai. I think we saw the most beautiful sunset ever there.

After that we went to the Serengeti for 3 nights. We saw everything we wanted to see and way more, such as the great migration, many (hunting) lions and cubs, leopards, cheetahs, serval cats, (fighting) hippo’s, giraffes, vultures, buffalo’s, elephants, antilopes etc. Jackson can spot an animal from 3 km away with his eyes only. So we literally saw every animal we passed by, as he notified us.

After the Serengeti it was time for the Ngorongoro. Again we saw so many animals, even the endangered black rhino’s! I literally could not see the rhino’s for 5 minutes, as I only saw grass through the binoculars. Eventually I saw the grey spot in the field he had already spotted earlier, but I did mot recognize it as a rhino (as he was laying down). Jackson was patient and we waited for 45 minutes or so. And we were rewarded, because the rhino’s got up and we could see them clearly!! Also the drive through the Ngorongoro is mesmerizing.

We ended the trip with a relaxing day (consisting of getting up late, shopping and visiting the Maasai).

EVERY accommodation was great and all the staff was so kind. My personal favorite was the tented camp in the Serengeti (luxury view camp), but everywhere we stayed was amazing.

All in all, I can say that you are in more than good hands when you book your safari with Juvenile Safari’s. I am especially grateful to Jackson and his capabilities, but I am sure that the other guides are also very good. 10 out of 10 would recommend!

Jackson the Greatest!
5/5

What an amazing safari!
Our guide Jackson made our trip an unforgettable experience! His skill to see even the faintest hints of animals and his patience to wait for the right moments helped us see every animal possible, even the more elusive leopard (2x) and rhino (3x!). Also, all the lodges and hotels that we stayed at where fantastic.

I whole heartedly recommend Juvenile Safari’s! We will for sure book again!
