Ajabu, the key to the perfect safari!
5/5

In july we made our first safari, organised by Ajabu Adventures. From the first contact, we had a very good feeling by the organisation. It was very professional and tailor-made. And the reception by Judith on the first day of our safari was warm and personal; the confirmation of the good feeling we already had.
And then our guide/driver Paul...Such a nice person, with al lot of knowledge and a nice sense of humour.He learned us a lot and nothing was too much!
The safari itself was overwhelming. Even the most beautiful photo can't reflect what you really see.
All the credits go to Ajabu Adventures and we highly recommend Ajabu to anyone who intends to make a safari.

Ajabu is Wonderful
5/5

Our few days with Ajabu Adventures were magical. Juma, our guide, was the best: friendly and respectful not just to us but everyone we encountered; knowledgeable and passionate about his country and environment; and eager to go above and beyond the expected to make us feel quite at home in Tanzania.
And Judith - what can I say? She is a model business owner - engaging, delightful and delivers over-the-top service and care.

The only downside was the food at the lodge where we stayed - their attempt at European cuisine feel short. May I suggest they try local delicacies, for which they probably have a much more sensitive palate, and would round out the experience of our Tanzania adventure?

Jan, owner of Ajabu Adventures had every detail of our 4 week trip worked out to perfection.
5/5

My wife and I spent 4 weeks visiting the beautiful country of Tanzania. Jan, the owner of Ajabu Adventures talked to us several times making sure the trip he was planning for us was customized by mixing a bit of down time, luxury accommodations and a fantastic mix of national parks and safaris. Every detail went without a hitch, from domestic flights to pick ups at the various airports to meeting us personally at the beginning and the end of our amazing adventure. All of the guides we had, had so much knowledge about the flora, fauna, history and the Tanzanian cultures. It was quite the learning experience, like something out of National Geographic. We had the pleasure of having Juma as our personal guide for 10 days. He is a prince of a man and was very well prepared and on time for everything. His respect for the environment and the animals was unprecedented and meant a lot to us both. If you are looking for a well planned out, safe, fun and exciting adventure I would not hesitate to recommend Ajabu Adventures. Thank you so much for an amazing experience!

What a beautiful experience!
5/5

In April we went to Tanzania.
It was partly to visit the student who was doing an internship in a school in Arusha, but also to enjoy the Tanzanian culture.
We wanted to go on safari, experience Arusha, feel Kilimanjaro…
Through acquaintances we called on Ajabu Adventures.
We arranged everything smoothly through Jan. Correct, well developed, understanding, open to communication…
We can confirm that the agreements made were correctly observed.
Compliments for the organization and the guides, it was wonderful. The safaris and the 'big five', the varied overnight accommodations, introduction to the Massai and primitive tribes, the climb to the base camp on Kilimanjaro, the cities of Arusha and Moshi, the local culture... everything we wanted!
Thank you Ajabu Adventures for this unforgettable experience!

What an experience!
5/5

What a memorable trip! Friends of us recommended Ajabu. The first contact with Ajabu was very pleasant, the program was easily adapted to our wishes. The contact went smoothly via email our contact person Anja reacted within a day, so we quickly knew what was possible.
Upon arrival at Kilimanjaro we were well received by the guide and this actually made us feel at home and safe from the beginning. What an environment and nature! Something we will never forget.
Our guide Boniface has made this trip even more memorable with his legendary statements and the many information he has given. Something we are still grateful for!

Amazing 2 weeks holiday in Tanzania
5/5

We spent an amazing 2 weeks in Tanzania over Christmas/New Year. Thanks to Anja, everything was booked perfectly and according to our wishes. We were travelling with my parents and my 2 young children (7 and 9) so we had a lot of extra requests and she did everything to accommodate them. Issa our safari guide and driver was fantastic, his English is great and he knows the parks and their wildlife very well. We even saw cheetahs!!! Our resort in Zanzibar had everything that we had asked for. I can't recommend Anja and Issa highly enough, they will do everything to make it a wonderful and memorable experience for you.

It costs something but then you also have something!
5/5

We wanted to go to Tanzania for some time but found the trips offered very expensive. This year we decided to go and opted for Ajabu because we heard very good reports about it. It is true: it costs a lot of money, but it was more than worth it! What a beautiful country, what beautiful parks, what a nice people, what a very nice guide we had with Juma and what a particularly well-cared-for journey. We literally did not have to worry about anything, everything was arranged and often paid for.
Tanzania permanently closed in our hearts!
Ajabu, asanta sana !!!

Lifetime memories
5/5

Our experience with ajabu safaris from start to finnish was excellent. From the
iniatial contact with anja sorting out our itinary was easy and straight forward. When we arrived in Tanzania our guide Juma was there to meet us, for the next 8 days we experienced a wonderful safari due the experience and knowlede of Juma. He took his time where other guides just seem to soeed everywhere. due to his patience and knowledge we saw the big 5 but more importantly we learned about the animals and there environment and the measures to stop poaching. We could not have had a better guide.
We will rember ou trip for our liftime
and Juma.
