Wonderful African Safari Experience

We recently returned from our first Southern Africa trip which included two different safari camps. Jabulani's featured elephant-back safari experience was unique, and the daily jeep-board excursions with informative wildlife guide were exceptional. The personalized service was superlative and the food quality and meal presentations were memorable. All in all, this was a memorable trip of a lifetime and highly recommended.

ゲームサファリも、象とのプログラムも、また施設も食事も本当に満足できました。 スタッフがとても優しくてフレンドリーで、安心して快適に滞在することが出来ました。 とても優秀なレンジャーRuanがゲームサファリに連れて行ってくれて、沢山の動物たちを本当に近くで見ることが出来ました。 キャンプ・ジャブラニに滞在出来て、本当に良かったと思っています。

象大好きな人にはぜひ

期待以上のサファリ体験ができました。お部屋の古さはありますが、ここはサファリを楽しむ場所なので、気になりません。象をこんなに近くで見られるなんて、思ってもいませんでした。料理も美味しいですし、大満足です。レンジャーのディーンはカメラが趣味でいろいろ教えてもらえました。

Excelente Serviço! Ótima experiencia!

A recepção foi maravilhosa, o staff do hotel é muito atencioso e como a propriedade tem apenas 5 acomodações isto a torna exclusiva.. a equipe presta um cuidado minucioso com cada hóspede. Os safaris oferecidos foram maravilhosos, o hotel tem jipes com cobertura (o que evita perrengue em caso de chuvas) e os guias/motoristas são muito cuidadosos e estão sempre a disposição para combinar uma saída. Por sorte conseguimos ver todos os Big Five, no ultimo dia apareceu o ultimo da lista. Comida maravilhosa e personalizada. Vale o investimento!
