We just had a 2-week stay of remarkable quality, what a treat! A huge thank you to Jan and John, who were always very attentive, as well as to the various guides and teams at the lodges we chose. Their professionalism combined with kindness allowed for breathtaking discoveries every day - the locals, the landscapes, the wildlife - and made this trip unforgettable. Bravo and thank you to Ajabu Adventures! Annick and Jean-Michel

We did select Ajabu Adventures based on the quick and adequate response to initial questions and requests. The feedback from friends, although a few years old, did help too.
We can only say; Arusha has exceeded our expectations. Stunning locations with friendly staff but also the excellent guide Joachim contributed to the very impressing experience. We were very impressed with Jo's knowhow an combined driving/wildlife spotting skills. The additional service of his digital camera with zoom lens has proven it's added value.

If you want to visit the wildlife parks in Tanzania, be surprised and immerse yourself in the beautiful nature, there is only one address: Ajabu adventures. Jan listened to our wishes and aspirations and created a tailor-made adventure for us. He sent us out with John, a passionate and very experienced guide. On the first day we saw lions, elephants, zebras, wildebeest, leopards, monkeys, buffalos... John knew all about the animals, we learned so much. It was also very nice to see how he enjoyed it himself and respected the animals' peace and freedom.
It was an overwhelming experience for us. Every evening we thought: now we have seen everything, and yet the next day we were moved and surprised again.
Ajabu goes to great lengths to make your dreams come true. So, what are you waiting for?

We just returned from a wonderful trip to Tanzania with Ajabu Adventures. Jan put together a superb tour for us. The choice of hotels and lodges was perfect.
Our guide Erik passionately introduced us to all the flora and fauna (with his lynx-like eyes).
Our bodies have returned home, but our minds are still in Tanzania.
Thanks again to Jan and Erik.

We just spent a week on safari and a short stay in Zanzibar thanks to Ajabu Adventures. The organization of the trip with Jan, the choice of hotels, our guide Erik, who introduced us to so many animal species, everything was perfect! Tanzania is the trip of a lifetime, one that we recount with shining eyes: the warmth of the inhabitants, the grandeur of the parks, and the beauty of the landscapes. We keep these memories in a corner of our hearts, secretly hoping to return...with Ajabu Adventures of course!

It has been a while since we booked a trip to Tanzania with the help of Anja (2021). She helped us tremendously in the jungle of providers and really tailored the trip and thought along with us. During our trip she had also taken the time to visit us. And after the trip she ensured that a nice book that we had forgotten in the Jeep (from the super guide Issa) was sent back. We definitely recommend Ajabu!

Cannot thank Jan enough for our wonderful Safari trip in Tanzania, followed by a 5 day full of leisure activities in Zanzibar. We had great communication throughout the booking process where his professionality and experience provided us with a customized travel plan from start to finish, and every little detail had been covered for our best interest. All days were memorable and seeing birds and animals in their wildlife far exceeded our expectations. We visited different tribes and thanks to the guides, we learnt a lot about their culture. Our lodges were wonderful with beautiful views and hosts were truly amazing. I cannot not mention Juma, our driver who respectfully and professionally took care of us all the way. He is incredibly knowledgably, patiently answering all our questions. Thank you Juma for serving us with a good cup of coffee after every lunch! Ajabu Adventures, this was a great vacation and we highly recommend.

We have just wrapped up our second spectacular safari with Ajabu! From start to finish Ajabu is just superb. Jan helped us put together the perfect itinerary for our family. The accommodation along the journey was first rate. The meals were top notch. More than anything we felt we were in the very best hands with our driver and guide Juma! Juma took us out 10 year ago and he hasn’t changed a bit! He is kind, capable and brings an integrity and intelligence to his job daily. They call him the professor and he certainly lives up the name. No question went unanswered. And my God, the man has eagle eyes,can spot a wild animal at a great distance. Book with these folks. You will never regret it!

Gertjan saved our self-drive holiday! Stuck in the Serengeti with 3 flat tires that were unfixable, he drove all the way to Arusha to find us new tires and sent them to Seronera. Incredibly kind and great service!
