Excellent experience and professional crew
5/5

We went for a 7nights/8 days circuit in the south of Tanzania (Mikuni, Ruaha and Selous) with Jadore Safari.
Koen was super reactive from the start and replied to any questions and request super promptly.
The team we had for the trip consisted of Paul and Anwar who where both super knowledgeable, funny and willing to stand up for us when problems occurred.
The car was a properly sized Land Cruiser in good condition and equipment.
So it was a really pleasant experience for our trip and we recommend them gladly.

Top trip for mother and daughter
5/5

By chance I discovered Koen and Katja from Jadore Safaris online when looking for the options for a Tanzania trip with my 8-year-old young lady. I quickly had confidence in this organization: the travel proposal for us was immediately spot-on, I could contact them with all my preparatory questions and always received a very quick and clear answer. The actual trip firmly exceeded my expectations. The warm welcome from Jadore Safaris after our landing immediately put a smile on our faces. The entire trip was PERFECT, in every possible way. We had a lot of fun on Safari with Anwar and Rama - Anwar guided us through the national parks as a top spotter and also gave us a nice explanation of the culture and nature of beautiful Tanzania, Rama was a gift to make the trip as a single parent light up. He quickly became close friends with my daughter and also gave me the necessary 'me-time'. In addition to safari, we also did a bicycle tour, visited a school, the natural and beautiful hot pools, the local market and Masai. We are going back next year, again with Cadore Safaris... we are both globetrotters, my daughter and I. But this was by far our most beautiful trip ever!

Exceptional Safari company
5/5

We spent 10 wonderful days with Jadore Safari on the southern circuit in Tanzania. From the beginning Koen & Katje were very responsive to our questions and specific requests. They went the extra mile with lots of water in the vehicle as well as sodas and snacks. We must mention the air-conditioning in the vehicle - it was a treat after a day of 30+ degrees of wildlife viewing. We felt well looked after. The accommodation on our trip was great. All the lodges had an authentic African feel with all the conveniences you would expect. We especially enjoyed the view from the Hilltop lodge outside of Ruaha park and the chef there made amazing cinnamon bread! Our other favorite accommodation was Nyerere tented lodge - close to Selous. It was amazing. The food there was the best of the trip.
During our safari we enjoyed driving through the different terrains in Tanzania. What an amazing country. And of course we need to mention the spectacular wildlife we saw....elephants, giraffes, lions, hippos, crocs, wildebeests, buffalo and many kinds of antelope, warthogs, jackals and even leopard. Every day was an different adventure! A trip of a lifetime!

A once in a lifetime experience
5/5

We had the best time with Jadore Safaris! They answered all of our emails with hundreds of questions and they were flexible with our needs! Koen and Katja picked us up at the airport and took us to our first destination with the Maasai tribe where we had the most wonderful time. Later on our guide Hamisi took us on a Safari for the next 4 days through the most beautiful parks and even though we thought we wouldn't see as much animals as in other seasons (because of the rainy season), we were surprised to see all of them! He was very kind to our 18 month-old daughter who is still asking for him at home, and he explained and answered to all of our questions about animals and Tanzania as well. We learned SO much! Now, we are counting the days to go back!

Jadore Safaris makes makes a safari your personal dream safari
5/5

We contacted Jadore Safaris for a roadtrip in Tanzania to visit parks like Serengeti, Ngorongoro and Tarangire. ​From the first contact there was a lot of trust due to the quick and accurate answers to all our questions. The proposed travel route and accommodation matched our expectations perfectly: beautiful nature, excellent accommodation, good food, frienldy people and, above all, lots of animals.
Koen and Katja from Jadore Safaris live and work in Tanzania. They know the environment and can propose the best solution to every question. Upon arrival they meet you personally at the airport, it's like meeting up with friends. They also help with pratical issues like our luggages being 1 day late.
The drivers they work with are professionals who know their job perfectly, drive responsibly and, as guides, also tell a lot about the animals, the environment, the people, the country.
Through their personal approach, friendly welcome and perfectly tailored arrangements, Jadore Safaris made this holiday unforgettable for us.

Thanks to Koen and Katja from Jadore Safari’s we had a fantastic trip! From the first contact we knew: this will work out! We first e-mailed back and forth and no question was too much for them. We also always received a quick answer. Because of the high season it was sometimes a bit puzzling to find available accommodation, but we managed to find it and all accommodation was fine. When one of the tent camps turned out to be destroyed by elephants, our fantastic guide Anwar arranged for us to be upgraded to a brand new camp, Nyota. Wow!
We have spotted loads of animals, big and small. We enjoyed a bush walk, a night safari and certainly also the walk with Koen and Katja in Kibola forest at the end.
Koen and Katja are wonderful people and very committed to their customers. They picked us up personally at the airport and we kept in touch throughout the trip via whatsapp. We also liked that they took the time to spend the last day in Arusha with us. We also enjoyed the lunch with the Belgian top chef Axel from Onsea House.
Because we enjoyed our first nights at Onsea House so much, we asked to cancel our last accommodation and replace it with one last night at Onsea House. Wasn't a problem again.
Our guide Anwar was also fantastic. Nothing was too much for him and he did everything to give us a wonderful experience.
We were really impressed by the nature of Lake Natron and had a good laugh when Anwar ventured into the river with the fish that tickled your toes.
Thank you Koen and Katja for the fantastic trip and keep up the good work!

Perfect, flawless organisation. Unforgettable adventure.
5/5


Very smooth organisation, quick response to queries before departure. During the trip and in the lodges, everything went smoothly. Our driver was a professional. He made a lot of effort to get close to the animals, knew his way around the parks very well, was smooth and pleasant in his dealings with us.

He also had a very extensive knowledge of the animals and parks present, knew perfectly the way and the best routes.

Thanks for an unforgettable experience!!
5/5

Jadore Safaris is a small-scale company that offers tailor-made safaris through very personal service.
During the preparation, the customer can pass on wishes in detail.
The communication about this via e-mail is very fast and direct.
It is also possible to have a complete tailor-made program made after giving a period, a budget and general wishes (as I did).

From the moment you walk out of the airport to the moment you walk back into the airport, everything is arranged for you.
The lodges and hotels have been carefully selected and are of a surprisingly luxurious level.
The whole stay goes smoothly.

The safari itself was perfect with an all-terrain vehicle equipped for the job and an extremely professional driver/guide.
In my case, this was Livingstone (who was of course chosen by Jadore), as friendly as he is skilled in driving and knowledgeable about the flora and fauna.

When you see the quote for a safari for the first time you may be a bit shocked, but when you are there you immediately understand why this is.
My safari was well worth every Euro.

I can only be positive.
The whole trip has far exceeded my expectations.
This is due to the meticulous preparation of Jadore Safaris and the fantastic driver/guide Livingstone.
I'm going to save up to go again 😉

Thanks for an unforgettable experience!!
