Let The Travel Bug Bite!

Many people have stayed in their ‘comfort zones’ for far too long and for lots of different reasons. Three years ago, the world shifted, perspectives changed, and bucket-lists were set aside for other priorities. But now that the Safari-Season is upon us, we are seeing a world of travellers like never before. And Africa is ready!

Over the past few months, all of us at Jenman African Safaris have been gearing up for this –welcoming guests to top-notch destinations, developing and tweaking our packages, reaching out to trusted agents and partners to collaborate and make sure that all the details are in place for each of our exclusive tours and destinations. With 30-years of experience in the Safari Industry, Jenman African Safaris is prepared for a bumper-year ahead!

While the continent is known for an incredible array of wildlife and stunningly beautiful landscapes, there are many more reasons to come on safari, and one of the main drawing cards in 2023 is to experience our people – up close and personal – like never before. The African people represent incredible diversity of cultures and communities. This year, we look forward to sharing the marvels of the African continent and giving our guests the experience of an unforgettable cultural immersion. Come with us and let the travel bug bite!

Sincerely, Garth

ABOUT US 01

Grow Africa

The Bridge between Challenges and Solutions, Good Will and Action

The Grow Africa Foundation was created by Jenman African Safaris and Hideaways with the aim of making a positive and sustainable impact on the environment, society and economy in the places we visit.

Our mission is “To be the Bridge between Challenges and Solutions, Good Will and Action.” We encourage you to get involved in making a meaningful difference through our various platforms and opportunities.

Our Burning Issues for 2024

DINGANI PRIMARY SCHOOL

Dingani Primary is a rural school in Zimbabwe, close to Hwange National Park and the Hideaways eco-lodge Elephant’s Eye, Hwange. As well as supporting a variety of conservation awareness projects and school maintenance programs, our foundation supports the school through the following initiatives:

Early Childhood Development Teacher

The ECD class at Dingani typically has in excess of 100 students aged 3 to 5 years old and only one government subsidised teacher. The Grow Africa Foundation is looking to maintain the ECD teacher position at the school long-term.

You Can Help: By sponsoring a teacher’s salary at US$200 a month

Dingani Scholarship Fund

More than 50 % of the students cannot afford school fees (US$ 30 / Year). In 2019 the Grow Africa Foundation awarded scholarships to 12 students and in 2023 we intend to increase this to 14 students.

You Can Help: By sponsoring a child’s education for one year with a donation of US$ 30

Project Penya:

Each year we supply a set of washable sanitary pads and panties to every Grade 6 girl at Dingani Primary, allowing them to continue coming to school during their monthly menstruation. This is accompanied by an invaluable 3-day life-skills workshop for the whole class covering topics as diverse as health and hygiene, conflict resolution and leadership. As part of our pledge to support local businesses, the washable pads are made for us in the community.

You Can Help: By buying a set of washable pads for a Dingani schoolgirl (US$ 25)

THE GROW AFRICA FOUNDATION 02

ROSMEAD PRIMARY SCHOOL

Rosmead Primary in Cape Town is close to our office and close to our hearts. The Big Five Club, made up of Jenman volunteers, visits the school weekly to assist with the school’s aftercare and Jenman provides transport for educational day trips and local hikes. In 2019, with the help of the Belgotex foundation, we re-surfaced the preprimary playground, giving them a green and safe space to play. Our next fundraising initiative is for a much-needed dining area for the children.

You Can Help: By donating to the Rosmead Primary School dining area appeal

GROW AFRICA LEVY

The Grow Africa Levy contributes towards education, conservation and community upliftment in the Hwange area. This ensures the area and its surrounds are secure and protected

THE JENMAN PLEDGE

With every booking received to the value of R10 000 or more, R50 (5$ or EUR5) is donated to Grow Africa. This covers all our overheads and contributes to developing, launching and subsidizing new projects.

You Can Help: By booking a Jenman African Safaris holiday!

GUIDED GROUP SAFARIS

We offer a diverse range of Guided Group Safaris throughout Southern Africa, East Africa and Madagascar.

These tours are expertly designed for travellers who want to see the highlights of a country, or in some cases multiple countries, with like-minded people. With set departure dates, these safaris are curated to make the most of the best game-viewing seasons, and are often more affordable than a tailor-made tour. Skilled guides provide valuable insight along the way and enable guests to experience the true beauty and allure of the African continent.

YOUR GUIDE

A professional guide leads the group throughout their journey. All our qualified guides have been carefully selected to provide an exceptional safari experience for our guests.

MEALS

Most breakfasts and dinners are included and are provided by the lodges’ restaurants. Lunches that are included will either be prepared by the guide as a picnic lunch or will consist of a lunch pack. On some occasions, the guide may prepare a traditional open-air meal around the fire for a wonderfully authentic African experience.

ACCOMMODATION

Our Guided Lodge Safaris offer mid-range to slightly up-market African lodge accommodation in national parks, concessions and other places of interest. Accommodation is a mix of lodges, chalets, and tented chalets –all with private bathrooms. Wherever possible we use smaller, authentic lodges rather than big hotels for a more intimate experience.

PARK FEES AND ACTIVITIES

On some of our safaris an additional park or activity fee may apply. This fee will be payable prior to travel along with (and not included in) the main tour fare. Examples include entrance fees to national parks and other attractions, as well as for local guides or miscellaneous items such as fresh fruit from the markets we visit. This fee is indicated as Park Fees and Activities in the brochure under the tour’s rates.
