Our Story

More Than a Safari Company

We are storytellers, conservationists, and passionate guides — united by one belief: Africa deserves to be experienced, not just seen.

Who We Are

Born From a Love of the Wild

Jacmiya Safaris was founded in 2021 in Nairobi with the belief that every traveler deserves a deeply personal, expertly guided encounter with East Africa's natural world.

What began as one vehicle and a notebook full of dream itineraries has grown into one of Kenya's most trusted safari operators — with a portfolio spanning 70+ destinations across Kenya, Tanzania, and Rwanda.

We combine deep local knowledge with world-class hospitality. Every guide on our team is a trained naturalist and a genuine storyteller. We don't just show you the Big Five — we help you understand the ecosystems, the communities, and the conservation battles that shape the Africa you're visiting.
