Januz Safari is a very professional tour operator with excellent personal service.
We booked a 4-day safari with luxury accommodation for our honeymoon in October 2024, and it was an incredible experience from start to finish. From the moment we requested a quote, Rose reached out to answer all our questions and assist us not only with the safari planning but also with our outward journey and stay in Arusha. She personally picked us up at the airport and surprised us with flowers to kick off our honeymoon, which was such a thoughtful gesture.
Our group safari guide, Mo, was excellent—not only knowledgeable and skilled on the game drives but also fun and personable throughout the trip. The only minor area for improvement would be better time management and coordination of the different accommodations for the other participants in our group safari.
The safari itself was absolutely amazing, and the accommodations exceeded our expectations. Rose even arranged a sweet honeymoon surprise at our first resort, which added a personal and memorable touch. Throughout the trip, Rose was always available to answer any questions we had, ensuring we felt well taken care of.
Overall, we had an unforgettable experience with Januz Safaris and feel that we received excellent value for money. We highly recommend them to anyone planning a safari adventure!

Amazing safari with Joseph
We went on a three-day safari with JT Safari to Tsavo and Amboseli National Parks, and it was truly amazing! Julius tailors the safari entirely to your wishes and takes the time to help you as much as possible. You can always message him with any questions or special requests.
Our driver and guide was Joseph, a really friendly guy who had incredible knowledge about the animals, the land, and the parks.
All in all, a fantastic experience! I highly recommend booking with JT Safari if you’re planning a safari in Kenya.

Easy and safe way to travel
Our experience with the conpany was very positive. They arranged custom tour for us in very short time frame and everything went smoothly. Our driver took very good care of us and drove us safely around Madagascar even though the roads are not in very good condition. They have english speaking drivers for those whi don't speak french. Owner of the company is very active on whatsapp and Facebook, so it is veey easy to get information about tours. Would recommend.

A truly unique experience, a perfect trip
We had an amazing trip with Morningstar doing 8 days/7 nights across Kenya.
Prior to the trip Joy was always prompt to reply and provide us with any relevant information. The whole process was very professional and felt well organised before we arrived.
Our guide, Willy, was fantastic - he always seemed to manage to position the vehicle in the right spot for where the animals were going to head. He moved along at our pace and had a knack of sensing when we might have needed a little more or a rest.
We saw every animal we wished to see - all of the big 6, ugly 5, wild dogs and more. Willy’s experience in knowing the regular routed of the animals and their behaviour was invaluable.
We had regular contact from Joy throughout, and Willy was also available on WhatsApp in the lodges when we were out through the week.
The land cruiser was spacious and comfortable, it had sockets to charge cameras/phones and reclining seats for the long drives between parks.
We feel we got fantastic value for money, all of the accommodation was of a high quality. The food throughout was varied and delicious, we never went hungry - my partner is a vegetarian and was well catered for at every hotel, with multiple options.
I wouldn’t hesitate to use morningstar again, and we certainly hope to return to Kenya with them again in the future.

Adaptable Safari Operator (arranged a Tanzanian Safari)
I had a connection with Wilson Bisaso of Saso Uganda Safaris from 10 years ago, and I arranged a trip to Tanzania with him and Saso. Wilson and the folks in the Office were very patient with me as we worked through various versions of the itinerary.
I am a passionate wildlife photographer and Saso works with Zara Safaris in Tanzania. My guide, Eliud, was absolutely amazing! I spent two full days in the Ngorongoro Crater, six in the Serengeti and a brief visit to Lake Manyara. Eliud was fantastic in every way! He was very adaptable and willing to accommodate my desire for long days out in the vehicle. He also had an amazing eye for spotting, and communicated well with other guides on the CB radio in order to ensure the best sightings. He positioned the vehicle beautifully, and made sure I was in a great place to photograph the animals. I saw the big five, and had multiple sightings of all three big cats, including mothers with babies. Eliud was kind, caring, considerate and very, very fun to be with! I taught him some British slang and he taught me some Swahili. I cannot recommend Eliud enough! Thank you to Wilson and Saso for making this trip possible.

Once in a lifetime Experience!
This trip was the best vacation we ever had. We travelled together with a family and booked a trip to see Tansania and it's gorgeous wildlife.
We started close to Arusha with a wonderful waterfall walk before we started our trip with Jon. First we visited Tarangire with his stunning herds of Elephants and many other animals. we further continued to a town called Mto wa Mbu to learn about Banana farms, local heritage and how people live their lives on a daily basis. Our guide Jon Malley always gave us great explanations about the local customs and how people manage their lives on a daily basis, which I personally found very interesting. Generally spoken I have to say - chose your guide wisely, as you will spend a lot of time in the car with him. I can only recommend you to go on tour with Jon. He is a gentle, polite, smart and eloquent young man, who always gave us the feeling to be treated as guests and friends. Don't miss to go to the Ngorongoro Crater - this is the most stunning piece of land we have seen so far with a variety of wildlife I have never experienced before. We were lucky - Jon managed to make us seeing 2 kills, which is brutal and stunning at the sam time - seeing Lions in Wildlife hunting a warthog down. Let me express my sincere gratitude to the organisation of that trip - it was the greatest trip we have ever been on. Looking forward to seeing my Tansanian friend Jon again - we will definitely come back some time.

eTrip Africa are an excellent tour operator that provide tailored safari experiences for all budgets
eTrip Africa delivered a superb safari experience for my partner and I in Tanzania. I contacted several tour operators for quotes outlining what we hoped to see and eTrip Africa responded promptly with a suggested itinerary. Their general manager Ben then helped to revise and build our final mid-range safari itinerary over the course of a week or so of emails. He was really patient and helpful and, unlike other operators, there were no boilerplate emails - it was clear they paid attention to customer needs. Ben even agreed to skype call before final payment.
Thereafter, we provided all necessary documentation to eTrip Africa and the safari itself was really well organised from our arrival at the Researcher's Rest in Arusha. A big shout out to Eddie and Joseph who went out of their way to help us with our onward travel after we returned from safari. Plus the food was great there! Our safari guide, Samson, was hugely knowledgeable about the wildlife we saw and gave us great insights into Tarangire NP, Lake Manyara and Ngorongoro Caldera ecosystems. He was very helpful and friendly throughout and we were delighted to have had Samson as our guide. Our accommodation and lunch boxes were excellent throughout including the beautifully located Tarangire Safari Lodge.
All in all, we felt eTrip Africa delivered a superb safari experience with excellent value for money and would be happy to recommend them to any visitors looking to go on safari in Tanzania.

Wonderful experience
We did a six day/five night private safari with Jocky Tours, and it was the best experience of our lives. It was really well organised. From the airport pick up to the drop off at our hotel after the tour. The Safari itself was a dream. Our guide and driver Dennis was the best. He shared so many information about all the animals and always knew the best spots to watch them or wait for them to pass us. He answered all our questions and showed us so many wonderful things, we are really grateful. He always showed respect for the animals and never went too close, so they wouldn't be disturbed.
We felt so comfortable in the car. He always drove very safe as well.
The accommodations we stayed in were absolutely fabulous. I would do the exact same tour again in a heartbeat and already recommended it to all our friends and family.
