Stressful experience
In the beginning the communication was very good. But on asking for confirmation of hotel packages as agreed, there were mistakes. Then again mistakes in the invoicing. I had to correct them. Then wrong dates & information on vouchers sent. Which I had to request correct on. Had to chase them to confirm bookings with other suppliers of our trip that they were handling. All payments were supposed to be in USD. But it changed & half the payments were then requested in ZAR. Paid our deposits & then after our final payments, the company stopped communications. Even after many phone calls & emails, requesting information & corrections, still nothing! Two weeks before the trip we had not received any confirmations or information from them for our South African part of the trip. A week before leaving, I had to contact ALL the suppliers directly for confirmations, addresses & departure information . Extremely stressful not knowing if everthing had been pre paid or even booked, when we boarded our flights from London to South Africa. A total shambles!!
Great support
Although we ended up joining tours included in our hotel, Patrick helped us a lot coordinate our plan during our stay. He was very helpful and I would definitely ask him for the next visit.

Unique and personalised service
Jibha Africa Safaris helped me with my trip to Africa. Patrick was exceedingly helpful in the planning of my trip. He has an exceptional knowledge about Southern Africa and he will assist you in tailor-making your itinerary based on your preferences. I definitely recommend you to book with him for a hustle free trip. You won't be disappointed. Their services were personalised and the tour was exactly the way he described them, in fact, they surpassed my expectations!

Educational travel support; luxury travel design
I have been working with Patrick Manyika in various ways for three years, to support regular travel to Zambia and Zimbabwe with different groups and individuals. I have been working in Zimbabwe for the last 25 years. The service and support that Patrick and his colleague John Mazviito at Jibha Africa Safaris provided our two groups this May was outstanding. Traveling with 28 choral students, and supporting our performances all along the way is not a simple task, and they handled both our set-up and the execution of the program with professionalism and style. They understand the requirements of academic travel, and supported our travel extraordinarily well.

We couldn't have asked for a better experience.
We were met at the airport when we arrived in Victoria Falls and the one on one attention and hospitality never stopped from there. Our schedule was really busy and we ended up making a few changes here and there at the last minute and Patrick made every accommodation necessary without any problems. Our guide to the falls, Polite, was amazing and so knowledgeable about everything. We felt we were given such a better and in depth tour than others around us with their guides. A trip to the local village in Zambia with Esau was great and well worth it. Knowing that every time we had an outing and that Patrick was there to see us off and make sure the driver was briefed and transfers, tickets or anything else was taken care of was really nice. It made the trip so personalized and different that the other tours offered. We would recommend Jibha and do it all over again in a heartbeat!
Our experience with Jibha was extremely positive and I have already recommended them to others .
In the planning phase of the holiday we dealt with Patrick who was very responsive and helpful. During the trip the team was reliable and accommodating. I would have no difficulty recommending them to others.

Wonderful 3-day experience at Vic Falls
We booked a 3-day trip visiting the Vic Falls as part of our trip to Zimbabwe and South Africa. All three activities (including the river cruise, Vic Fall park tour and the walk the lion trip) that we took are great. The services provided by the company are comfortable and attentive while not over killing. Everything went smoothly and we had an excellent experience overall. Will definitely recommend John and Patrick to other friends who are interested in taking this trip. They also helped us file the application for our visa to Zimbabwe which saves us a bit extra work too. Thumb up!

Jibha organised everything for us. Our stay, transfers, amazing accommodation, the best activities and not to be mention an entire destination wedding for 120 people.
They were like extended family. Patrick and his team are doing a great job.

Everything was just perfect. Theyre so organised and they handled my wedding party of 80 people amazingly. Everyone was so happy. All activities, transfers and stay was taken care of by Jibha Safaris and everyone on their team was so polite and genuinely helpful. They are the best.

Excellent service rendered with great flexibility
Jibha Africa Safaris is very reliable. They are prompt and responsible in their service. During our trip, we had to re-adjust our plans as I fell sick on the second day. Jibha helped to rearrange all of our activities promptly according to our preference and because of that, we didn't have to miss out on anything. We felt very comfortable communicating and working with them. Both Patrick and John went the extra mile and catered to all of our needs. We really had so much fun, not having to worry about anything! Thank You Jibha Safaris!
