Great tours with a wonderfull staff!
5/5

MJ Safaris organised for us (2 people) our Kilimanjaro-climb (Machame route) and 6 days safari (Arusha NP, Ngorongoro, Serengeti and Lake Natron with the climb of Ol Doinio Lengai) for a good price. Both trips were excellent, thanks to a very skilled, motivated and friendly staff. We enjoyed it fully and had no
complaints at all. I can certainly recommend MJ Safaris!

MJSafari went above and beyond to bring my dream in reality
5/5

Hiking to top of Kilimanjaro is life time dream of any hiker. I did solo EBC in 2014 and definitely wanted to successfully do Kilimanjaro. Through internet research I came across MJ Safari and got connected to Mr. Jackson in Jan-2016. I was the only hiker without any group. So had concern how I would be treated due to commercial reason. Besides I didn't know anyone in Moshi-Tanzania-whole Africa. But Mr. Jackson assured me that he will be Ambassador and will be with me through out his journey from planning all the way till I accomplish. And he lived upto his words. He and his team went above and beyond. I took Whiskey (Machame) route for 5 nights 6 days. I was solo hiker but there was no compromise in treatment. Guide Imi (Imanuel), assistant guide Joseph, cook, porter did tremendous job. We were like family for 6 days. Imi is amazing guide. All this time I not only enjoyed hike but had great fun. Truly amazing lifetime journey. Food, tent quality, route knowledge, over all experience was truly professional and amazing. I also did Safari (4 days 3 nights). Mr. Jackson and his team supported me throughout my stay in Tanzania. He literally lived upto his words as personal Ambassador. I would highly recommend MJSafari.

5 Day Marangu Route to Mount Kilimanjaro
5/5

I am very excited to say that I reached the summit on Mount Kilimanjaro with MJ Safari! From the very beginning, Jackson was quick to answer all of my questions and had very awesome communication! I am in Tanzania volunteering at an orphanage and staying at a home stay in Arusha, and the very friendly Mr. Ali came and picked me up to take me to my hotel in Moshi. Jackson met me there and made sure I had all of the equipment and gear I needed to get me through the trek. The guide and porters were amazing! They made delicious meals and accommodated my vegetarian diet perfectly! They made sure everyone in my group was doing well and kept us happy with their kindness and great attitudes! Climbing Mount Kilimanjaro was the hardest thing I have ever done in my life, but thanks to MJ Safaris, I had an incredible and memorable experience!!!

wonderful trip to Serengeti and Ngorogoro crater
5/5

We had a four day trip to Tarangire, then the Serengeti and coming back to the Ngorogoro crater. This was a first such trip for the three of us (i.e. on safari) and we enjoyed it enormously. Highlights included seeing many lions, especially one in a tree and climbing down. We saw two black rhinos, crossing the road between two lines of jeeps. Magnificent animals. There were huge numbers of giraffe, zebra, wildebeest, gazelles, and many elephants, buffalo, ostrich, hippos etc etc. We "saw" a crocodile, but if i'm honest i would have to admit i was only really sure of it when i got the photos and enlarged them!! There was no mistake, the guides obviously saw it clearly!
Our guide Jimmy seemed to have eyes everywhere - only once we saw a lion before he did - and then he said "2 lions". He was an excellent guide, patient, thoughtful, and explaining many things as well as the major animals. He answered all our questions clearly.
There is a lot of driving, a lot of time in the landrover, but it was absolutely worth it. It was all well planned and organised, no problems we were aware of. During the trip one of us was not quite well (not at all serious) and there was appropriate concern and help at the pharmacy in the Serengeti.

Great Trip
5/5

After completing a very rewarding and enjoyable climb of Kilimanjaro with MJ they then organised a 4 day safari for me which was a lot easier than climbing Kilimanjaro but equally enjoyable. Everything about the safari was perfect. We saw all of the big 5. We had a good quality and comfortable vehicle. The tents were lovely. Our guide was very knowledgeable and friendly and the food was gorgeous. For me everything was perfect and the price was very reasonable.

Jackson and his team are exceptional and their service has real attention to detail.
5/5

My wife and I had the most amazing wildlife safari adventure with MJ Safaris. We saw the big five, and so many other species and much more besides animals. Our trip was extremely well organised and Jackson went out of his way to ensure we had an unforgettable experience. We saw the Ngorongoro Crater, the Serengeti, and a number of other parks, including Amboseli on the Kenyan side which were all spellbinding. Our driver Frank was not only highly knowledgeable about everything we saw, but possessed the most remarkable eyesight, picking out well camouflaged animals from distance where my wife and I could see nothing yet! We have come away with lasting memories of such a wonderful time. Huge thanks to MJ Safaris. We recommend them highly.

Great Safari and Kili climb with helpful and knowledgeable guides
5/5

We booked with MJ Safaris & Adventure the 4 days Safari and 5 days Marangu route to Kili. Both of trips were amazing experience and made up to our expectations. Jackson was very helpful from the beginning, also he gave us good price. He took care of us during our stay in Moshi.
What regards the Kili climb, we could rent all the equipments from Jackson. The huts were ok, but be prepared for very cold nights! The food made by our cook was really good and diversified. Our guide: Aron, and his assistant Alex, were very caring and knowledgeable. They supported us throughout the whole trek. Actually, we can write with no doubt that we made it to the Uhuru mainly thanks to them.
What regards safari we also had a superb experience – we were sleeping in the tents, which made the whole trip even more memorable as you could really hear the animals in the camp area. Our guide and driver – Marko, was extremely knowledgeable guy. In most of cases we were the first to see the animals or to know where they will go. Marko was talkative, open-minded and really had a lot to tell about the animals and the Tanzanian parks.
We would definitely recommend Jackson agency for your trip bookings - they will be for sure the most memorable experiences, as they were for us.

6 day Machame Route + 2 day safari
5/5


We booked the 6 day Machame Route and 2 day safari with MJSafaris and it was excellent! Jackson was fantastic - super helpful in answering all my questions and addressing my concerns. Their pricing was very competitive but we received the same high quality equipment, meals, and services from our guides and porters as others who paid much more than us. Both the Kili climb and the safari were unforgettable experiences... My guide for the two day safari - Innocent - was superb, extremely knowledgeable with 10+ years safari experience. We had one small issue with one of our sleeping bags on the mountain but Jackson handled and resolved the situation so well that we were more than happy that we booked with him. Highly recommend!
