Jartan was friendly, conscience, professional and efficient.and
The Kenya/Tanzania safari was 19 days with 10 travellers. Jartan did a great job coordinating our activities and providing information about the areas and animals. He was extremely knowledgeable and very exuberant when seeing rare wildlife. He was fun to be around and was a great asset to the trip.

Jartan Lazier guided us on a trip of a lifetime through Kenya and Tanznia!
From the very beginning of our trip to the very end everyday was filled with new discoveries, new information, and extremely enjoyable experiences. Even what could have been mundane travel from location to location became adventures as Jartan imparted his knowledge and answered our questions with informative factual explanations. No day lacked entertainment, either. Jartan’s fun loving personality and willingness to joke made all of his “guests” careful to not be too serious all the time. It was a fun filled tour!
All lodging was superb. Accommodations selected by Jartan exceeded our expectations. Staff at all lodges was very polite, helpful, and very attentive. They anticipated our needs. Although we stayed only a few days at most at a location, staff knew our names and our food preferences shortly after our arrival. Rooms and public areas included all amenities possible and were spotlessly clean. Food choices at all meals were endless, widely varied, very well prepared, and plentiful.
Animal viewing was spectacular! New and exciting views and encounters each and every minute when on Game Drives. This was a great time of year to travel in Africa; many large herds of zebra, wildebeest, warthogs, elephants, giraffes, and so many babies!
We must all remember that the Hyena is the most beautiful animal in the wilds of Africa! Too bad it was not selected as one of the “Big Five”.

Jartan Lazier is a remarkable tour leader, wildlife guide, & personality extraordinaire!
Our small group tour with nine other travelers through Kenya and Tanzania was remarkable in itself but Jartan made everything so much more memorable. Jartan had firsthand knowledge of all areas we visited. His connections with local area experts and residents who shared their personal stories with us added so much to our visits in all locations throughout Kenya and Tanzania. Time spent speaking directly with people in each location increased our understanding of daily life, survival of cultures, and coping mechanisms for growing populations. In each national park, areas of conservation, or other wildlife setting, Jartan hired drivers and guides with his caliber of knowledge and willingness to make our experiences the best possible. All guides were welcoming, had fun personalities, and accommodated all reasonable traveler’s requests.
While in the wild, which was most of our trip, we encountered wildlife of all types. It was never boring! Each day brought new viewings of previously not seen animals or the same animals in new settings. As we traveled on safaris there were near constant wildlife viewings. Many times we were first with a sighting of a special animal or unique encounter. When we arrived at a sighting location busy with other travelers, we were able, with Jartan’s and his guide’s expertise and knowledge, to be positioned such that the animals moved towards us for better views and photo-ops. Many of our great pictures are the result of Jartan’s directions for positioning the vehicle.
Jartan is remembered for his actions as a guide but became a friend by his caring hospitality and openly enthusiastic sharing of his pride for Africa and its people.

Jartaneas a personal, professional, knowledgeable guide, plus a great storyteller.
My friend and I did a 19 day safari through Kenya and Tanzania with a group of 10 and we were lucky to have Jartan as our group leader. We had an amazing experience seeing masses of wild animals in their native environment. Jartan's knowledge of the counties and wild animals added so much to our adventure. He took time with each of us to make sure our expectations were met. Our safari food and accommodations were beyond what we expected. Add Jartan's natural sense of humor and energy to this and you have a total package for a trip of a lifetime

Jartan is extremely knowledgeable and passionate about his country; both the tribes and animals.
Jartan was interested in learning about our culture and easily shared his own life experiences. He wasn’t just a tour guide he became a friend to each of us. He always checked on our comfort level and worked to correct even the smallest thing. He never left anything to chance.
He also, seemed to know exactly where the animals might be as we rarely went for long without seeing multiple animals and a variety of landscapes and animals. He was able to impart knowledge about the country and its people as well. I especially enjoyed meeting the variety of tribes and learning and interacting with them. He understood that joy was found not just in the sighting of an animal, but in the gentle smile of a native lady and that hugs and smiles are a universal way to communicate.
Jartan’s tour was a remarkable blend of people, animals, and the tranquility of an amazing land.
I highly recommend him as a tour guide and friend, as you will leave Africa feeling that you received more than your moneys worth and an adventure of a lifetime!

Jartan Lazier enhanced my experience by his knowledge, caring, fun loving and kind attitude
September 2024 I ventured on a 19 day safari of Tanzania and Kenya with nine other travelers. This was a perfect amount of time and the weather was excellent.
Our knowledgeable safari leader was Jartan Laizer. Jartan was an excellent guide, spotted all of the animals for us, took care of each travelers needs, was friendly, funny and caring. We all became fast friends with Jartan and with each other.
Tanzania and Kenya are natures back yard. We observed all of the Big 5–African elephant, cape buffalo, lion, rhinoceros and the elusive leopard. Much to our awe we observed the cheetah in its natural habitat. Plus, we saw never ending numbers of zebras and 3 different species of giraffes.
The native people were friendly and welcoming. We visited several towns and Maasai villages. The Maasai demonstrated their jumping ability, for which they are famous. They did not fail to fascinate us.
The scenery was pretty—many native trees and scrubs, of which Jartan told us the specifics about them. In the Serengeti the sunsets were spectacular, plus the stars.
This was a truly fascinating experience and one of my favorite tours ever! I would totally recommend a safari to Kenya and Tanzania with Jartan Lazier.

Jartan was professional and amazingly knowledgeable while still being fun and a joy to be with.
My dream trip of 19 days in Africa was an amazing adventure in more ways than I imagined. The cities, the Masai, the villages, the lodges and wonderful food all exceeded my expectations. And there are almost no words for how our tour operator and drivers worked to bring us to magnificent wildlife viewing every day. I would recommend to anyone considering a trip to Africa to definitely do it!

Jartan was an excellent and very knowledgeable tour leader with great sense of humor.
Tanzania was a delightful country full of surprises. We experienced the great migration as the wildebeest and zebra were moving south. Was common to see 100s of the animals each day. Lions were plentiful and fat since so many prey were available. We also saw many lions on “honeymoons”’as mating season was in full swing. Highlight was seeing 12 cheetah and witness two cubs playing keep away with rodent. Our visits to local villages to understand their life and culture was amazing. Jartan was an exceptional guide and made the trip very special.

Jartan was amazing tour guide. His knowledge of the wildlife was outstanding but also the land where the wildlife was and why!
Just when I thought this experience couldn’t get any better- another wonderful adventure would come thanks to Jartan’ s experience.
Jhartan treated everyone with respect and kindness. Not only was he great with the clients on the trip but also the bus drivers also plus his great sense of humor!😄
There were 10 people on the Safari - we all love Jhartan
