Unforgettable Safari with Tanzania Juvenile Safaris
5/5

We recently returned from a fantastic 7-day safari with Tanzania Juvenile Safaris, led by an exceptional guide, Jackson. Our family of five was blown away by the experience and give it a 5-star rating without hesitation.

Jackson's expertise and passion for wildlife were instrumental in making our trip unforgettable. His ability to spot animals and share fascinating facts about their behaviors added depth to our encounters. Moreover, his connections with other guides allowed us to witness unique moments, such as a wildebeest river crossing and an up-close encounter with a black rhino.
Beyond his knowledge, Jackson's personalized approach ensured that our safari aligned with our individual interests.

His reliable and well-maintained Land Cruiser provided a safe and comfortable journey, even in challenging conditions. Jackson's skill as a driver and his positive, engaging personality made the experience even more enjoyable.

In summary, Tanzania Juvenile Safaris and Jackson's guidance exceeded our expectations. We highly recommend Jackson and his company to anyone seeking a truly unforgettable safari adventure."

professionalism, patience and friendliness
5/5

I started planning my Safari many months before departure. Jackson guided me in choosing my itinerary, fulfilling my desire to visit the Northern Serengeti as well. The six days we spent together were magnificent: Jackson is a very knowledgeable, patient and enthusiastic guide. I am happy to have met him and I highly recommend a Safari with him.

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!

Jackson the great - safari was absolutely stunning
5/5

We have just returned from a safari with Jackson, where we attended Materuni, Tarangire, Manyara, Lake Natron, Serengeti and Ngorongoro. It was an absolutely amazing adventure and we could not have wished for a better guide. Jackson is very knowledgeable, enthousiastic and friendly. Furthermore, his ability to spot animals is unbelievable.

The lodges he recommended for us were all very nice as well.

All in all I would 100% recommend this experience and am certainly going back to Tanzania at some point, whereby I will not hesitate to call Jackson again.

Asante sana!

Excellent safari with perfect guide
5/5

We had a more than excellent safari and went to Taragire, Ngorongoro and the Serengeti. Every day was even more overwhelming and our guide was able to bring us to the most fantastic places and we saw a lot of lions, cheetahs, leopards, batearedfoxes, etc. Amazing was his experience and knowledge and bringing us to the right place at the right time. We stayed at Sound of Silence and Mawe tented camp. Amazing stay and would recommend these.

Best experience ever
5/5

The safari with Jackson was beyond our expectations. We had a wonderful 10 days in Tarangiri, Ngorongoro Crater and the Serengeti. We saw so many animals it was really amazing. Jackson knows so much about the animals and the national parks so we learned a lot.

Jackson not only knows the parks well but he know the best way to plan your itinerary to suite your interest and budget

I cannot recommend this experience enough.

Most fantastic trip of my life!
5/5

Jackson is an expert of nature and animals! On top of it he has a very good feeling for where to get the pole position for viewing the animals.

We had a very pleasant stay in both Sound of Silence and Mawe Tented Camp with a excellent location for wildlife viewing.

I can recommend him very much and in a few months we will book again with him.

Asante sana Jackson
