GREAT TRIP WITH AN EXCELLENT GUIDE
Having a great guide can turn a good trip into the trip of a lifetime. Jartan went above and beyond with pretrip communications, excellent planning, superior knowledge and in the occasional, but not unexpected, event where something was not perfect, he immediately knew what to do to fix the issue. He has excellent knowledge of the wildlife and their habitats, but also the local culture, events, history and everything else you might want to learn along the way. He also has many local experts and contacts along the tour to give detailed insight into the communities and trades. The trip is not inexpensive due to park entry fees and dedicated drivers, lodging and other costs, so having an excellent guide is the best way to make sure you get the most for your money. Like many people, my initial hope was to view lots of animals. We saw many more than I had expected, but many of the other experiences on the trip made lasting impressions. The scenery was beautiful, the food was delicious, and most of all, the people we met at our accommodations, our drivers and on the many side tours are the parts of the trip that I will always remember fondly.

Jartan Laizer can turn any adventure into a trip of a lifetime.
The adventure was outstanding but Jartan Laizer was even more exceptional as a tour guide. He displayed compassion and concern for all of his clients. He wanted everyone to have the best experience possible. He has a wonderful sense of humor and was a pleasure to be around. Jartan is an encyclopedia of knowledge when it comes to the history or Kenya and Tanzania and the identification of the animals, flora, and fauna. He could spot animals in the parks that most people could not see with their naked eye. He made my travel experience one I will never forget. You can not go wrong when selecting Jartan Laizer as your guide through Kenya and Tanzania.

Outstanding safari guide with knowledge of tracking and finding animals.
On safari with Jartan from Masai Mara to the Serengeti in Kenya and Tanzania, our group was able to spot several leopards and cheetahs and we'll over one hundred lions walking in close proximity to our safari vehicle, in addition to many elephants, zebras, giraffes, etc. He is an outstanding guide who I would travel with again on the future.

Jartan Mbalakai was extremely kind, knowledgeable, cheerful and helpful in all ways at all times.
As a single woman 80 years old and having traveled to 50-plus countries, my soul connects with Africa and I’ve returned several times.
Of all my tour operators on all my journeys, Jartan Mbalakai is far and away the best!
On a recent trip to Kenya/Tanzania, it was clear from the outset that Jartan was going to be highly qualified and excellent. He contacted me prior to the trip with every detail regarding preparation and expectations, answering all my questions.
From first meeting him at my arrival in Nairobi until my final flight departure returning to the USA, Jartan was always kind, cheerful and helpful. His knowledge of the people and the land (in cities, villages and on safaris) with its flora and fauna (which was extraordinarily abundant!) was remarkable. I’m a curious traveler and constantly ask questions. If Jartan wasn’t quite sure of my queries, he always researched and quickly found the answers.
Our small group from different states became a family from the outset and Jartan was quickly regarded as a member of our "family". We relied on him constantly (day and night!) and he never failed us, cheerfully fulfilling our needs, keeping us safe and entertained as he showed us his stunning land and its inhabitants.
Because of him I regard the trip as the BEST ever…it was the most in-depth journey I’ve taken.
Jartan will be a “faraway friend” with whom I will occasionally stay in touch because I respect him as a fine person and most excellent tour operator.

We had no idea what to expect, but our experience was beyond any expectations…transformational!
We had no questions left unanswered as we left. We were amazed by the service, accommodations, and all-encompassing experience we had. We never worried about anything! It was well worth every penny we spent. It was a life-changing experience that still brings me to tears as I think about it !

Outstanding
The tour was fantastic but what made it was the guide he went out of his way to make sure everyone and everything was perfect and each guest had everything they needed including doctors visits and medicine.

Jartan Laizer
We had a safari in Kenya & Tanzania for about 3 weeks in August, 2023. Mr. Jartan Lazier was our guide through out this period. He provided us with excellent services like stays, transportation & took extra efforts to show animals in the wild. We like to recommend him to anyone who likes to take such a safari.

Jartan was well educated in the history, culture, and nature and was also kind and caring.
Our Tanzania Safari trip was a once in a lifetime experience. Jartan and all of the other guides made sure we got the full experience. We saw animals up close, met people from different tribes and backgrounds, and went to varied geographical locations. The accommodations and food were outstanding. I would recommend trip to anyone.

Excellent!
I am delighted to recommend Jartan Laizer, an outstanding guide who demonstrated unparalleled expertise, professionalism, and a passion for the diverse beauty of Tanzania and Kenya during a safari in September 2023. Jartan possesses an in-depth knowledge of the rich history, culture, and natural wonders of Africa. He was calm and caring to everyone in our small group no matter what situations occurred.
I have been to 35 countries and with various tour groups, and I can honestly say Jartan was the best guide I have ever had.
The very best
I went on a Africa safari last year my tour guide Jartan was the best my adventure took me to Kenya and Tanzania for 23 days
