Overwhelming safari with a personal touch
5/5

In early July, we traveled with our family of 5 to Arusha (Tanzania) for a 9-day safari. We had been looking for a personalized trip with our own accents. It certainly didn't have to be a 'VIP' trip, but we were looking for a small operator with whom we could have direct contact and with whom we could plan the trip together. Coincidence brought us to Koen and Katja, JADORE. And because we wanted to experience what JADORE stood for live, besides WhatsApp, Facebook and other channels, we went to the Holiday Expo in Antwerp (early March '22) in preparation for the trip, because there would be a stand there.
To our surprise, we met Koen himself, who had travelled from Tanzania especially for the fair. His enthusiasm was contagious. He spoke at length about his own experiences in Tanzania, about life there and about the Tanzanian motto "hakuna matata". In support he showed countless beautiful and self-made pictures of Arusha, of Usariver (their home town) and of course of the wildlife in the various parks. At the end of the afternoon, we felt sorry that we had to wait another 4 months.
Finally, on July 5, we land at Kilimanjaro National Airport. Koen and Katja are waiting for us with their drivers and 2 vehicles. By then, we no longer see them as a tour operator, but as a real hosts who do everything to make their guests feel at home, which they succeed in doing. All preparations are made to perfection, all locations are checked and double checked. The most important thing with the safaris is of course the driver, the man or woman with whom you travel around in the parks for 9 days. Koen has promised a good driver and that promise was fulfilled. Anwar turned out to be a great guy, an all-round driver who knew the parks through and through, who also knew a lot of drivers personally and who advised us everywhere we went (lodges, stores, museums, ...). With him we were able to see the big 5 (ok though the rhino was a bit far ;-)), the uggly 5 and so much more. In the 9 days we traveled through Kibola Forest, Arusha National Park (NP), Tarangire NP, Lake Manyara NP, Ngorongoro Crater Conservation Area, and of course Serengeti NP: 9 intense days filled with beautiful game walks and game drives and a lifetime of memories. Thank you very much Koen, Katja, Anwar and the whole team for the unforgettable time! Good luck over there and hakuna matata!

Prima onderneming goed en mooi georganiseerd
5/5

I was born in Congo and wanted to go back to Africa one day. Because Congo is not that interesting as a tourist, I chose neighboring Uganda and I chose jadore safaris. They organized an 8 day 7 night safari tour and it was perfect! The guide was very good, professional, and super nice. We thoroughly enjoyed the whole trip. I absolutely have to congratulate Koen & Katja, and thank him enormously for how they have organized everything. So I also strongly recommend booking a safari with JADORE.

Excellent Safari with Jadore and super service
5/5

We had an amazing safari with our amazing Jadore safaris driver and guide Rashid. I have a disability and we drove a fully converted 4x4, which my wheelchair could easily fit in. What a service!
