Probably the best trip we have ever taken thanks to the planning of David and Robynne and the ground crew in Kenya. Sarara Treehouses, Borana Lodge and Wilderness Mara were all fantastic in location,... See more

My husband and I have been traveling for the last 22 years. We have just returned from a trip to Portugal and it was amazing! Our trip itinerary was organized with James and Rita and both spent many hours on the phone and by email adjusting every detail to make it a memorable experience. We have traveled throughout Europe, Africa and even to Argentina and Antarctica. Jacada has planned many of our travels and have never failed to make everything perfect…from the informative guides, beautiful hotels and incredible excursions. Trust Jacada if you’re planning to travel!!

This was our first experience with Jacada and I couldn't be happier.
We wanted to do the trip of a lifetime going to Australia and New Zealand, and what a dream it was!
David designed the best itinerary for us, with so many incredible moments. The highlights were the day snorkeling on the Great Barrier Reef, and the helicopter ride to the glaciers in Mt Cook.
Everything was so well thought out and organized, we had 0 problems. Even when our baggage was sent to the wrong city in one of our flights, the local team helped us get the baggage without us having to do anything, it was truly amazing.
If you are thinking of booking a trip with Jacada I couldn't recommend it more!
I'm already thinking about the next one. Thank you David and Rahma for everything, and for all the attention into making this the best trip possible.

God gave man his image and gave him to dominion over the Earth. However once one enters into Kruger, which is size of Israel the odds shift in favor of the incredible number of species that can inflict great bodily harm. You’re on their turf now. But at Camp George, you take it all in with luxurious and safe surroundings.
Each morning and evening, we set out to experience the vast stillness of this incredibly beautiful place.
Saw the Big Five (see pictures) and countless species of birds, trees and insects

We could not have booked this trip of a lifetime without the first class experience and accommodating nature of Jody van Merode and the Jacada team of experts. Vip treatment was nonstop. They invested their knowledge and made a sincere effort to successfully provide us with this trip.

Jacada planned an amazing trip for us to Nepal and Bhutan. The itinerary was personalized to our preferences, with some unexpected gems like a healing bows session in Kathmandu, Nepal, and an awesome bike ride in Thimphu, Bhutan. Tigers Nest hike in Paro, Bhutan was beautiful.

Rosie curated our trip to Morocco. During the planning we felt like she just "got us" when planning our excursions. From fun adventures like making tam tam drums to cooking classes, lunch with a Berber family - all of our experiences were so cool and well thought out. Everything was perfectly executed and the driver and guides were really top notch. Working with a company like Jacada and specialists like Rosie and Grace really makes a huge difference - they have the experience and local knowledge to provide travelers with amazing accommodations, unique experiences and amazing suggestions for dining experiences. We have already booked another trip with Jacada to Southeast Asia in early 2027.

Jacada has nailed it on all 3 of our trips they’ve planned! From the beautiful hotels they select, well thought out itineraries, professional and fun guides, and so much more we are always confident that they will put together a trip that is just what we are hoping for! The team is readily available and flexible whenever we’ve needed and truly listen to our input which makes for very memorable, and maybe most importantly, stress free traveling! Thanks again Jacada… we look forward to working with you again!

The hotel Meg recommended was perfect. Its location in the Places des Voges was wonderful. Our private tour of Notre Dame with one of the master sculptors is something we will never forget.

Reply from Jacada Travel
Plan - they managed to get the spirit of what I was asking for and were flexible to make changes until the last minute
Execution - the crew on the ground was professional and well versed. The hotels recommended were great but they need to update their 'happening' restaurant list

David did an outstanding job curating our 8-day African adventure, which included game drives during our stay at Londolozi Camp and a spectacular helicopter flight over Victoria Falls. His advice and assistance prior to and throughout our visit was spot on. He made Jacada the best of a total of four tours of Africa with four different tour operators. All were good, but David put Jacada over the top. Highly recommended.
My husband had them plan our 25th anniversary trip to Scandinavia and BOY did it deliver. We have traveled extensively over our years together and this was easily one of our top trips of all times. Many of the excursions we did were private and we enjoyed how on each and every one we were taken care of to the fullest! Hotel accommodations were lovely, restaurants recommended were on point and they pay special attention to what your goals are with where you are traveling while also finding ways to educate you about the area. You also get a very detailed itinerary which makes it so easy to see what is coming up next. We will definitely use them again.

An absolutely amazing trip from start to finish. Luisa and Symmone planned the perfect itinerary, selected the most beautiful hotels and planned every last detail so we didn’t have to worry about a thing. So many wonderful family memories created thanks to this amazing team! We will be back for future travel❤️

I used Jacada to plan my honeymoon and wow did they exceed ALL my expectations. Every touchpoint from start to finish- was handled with care, and no detail went unnoticed. The team planning the trip was extremely knowledgable, and the team on the ground made sure we didn't have to lift a finger. Absolulely every part of our trip was amazing, and I can't thank the Jacada team enough for planning the trip of a lifetime. Jacada Travel was my first time using a travel agency- and I can't wait to plan the next one!! Highly recommend booking a trip with Jacada!! Thank you especially to Chloe and Kam for all your hard work over the past months to make this trip unforgettable.

When I began my search to go on Safari, I knew I wouldn't be able to plan my trip as usual and would need to use an expert travel-planning company. I came across Jacada, and man, am I glad I did. From the expertise and information for planning to the recommendations for lodges, I felt at ease about the whole process. This team knows their stuff and, more importantly, was available to answer any questions from start to finish. If you are planning any safari trip, definitely use this team!! It made our holiday seamless and smooth. Even when I got a stomach bug on the trip, they had a medical doctor available to give me medicine and help diagnose me. Their on-call 24/7 team was truly available to help 24/7.
Any future trip to Africa will definitely be booked through Jacada!

Our Jacada travel designer, Chloe Ainscow, listened to our interests and tailored a once in a life time trip to southern Africa that more than met our expectations. The accommodations, food and pacing of the trip were excellent. But more than anything it was the caring and knowledgeable Wilderness guides, Randall at Cape Town, Ben at Linkwasha, Faidon at Ruckomechi and Willard at Toka Leya that made the trip exceptionable.

Jacada arranged a fabulous trip to Scotland for me and my family, including my 8 year old grandson. They tailored the journey precisely to our interests and hobbies, finding unique and out of the way experiences for us, such as learning to weave, visiting a working sheep farm, a bagpipe lesson, an afternoon with a local storyteller. Their guide/driver was fantastic; she really "made" the trip.
I know Jacada trips are expensive, but they are entirely worth it. I was relieved of my usual role as travel organizer. They arranged far more interesting activities than I would have known about. The hotels were gorgeous. All in all, I highly recommend Jacada.

Jacada has planned 2 of our trips to central and South America. We were so impressed with James and Carlos on our first trip to Mexico and Guatemala that it was a no brainer to have them plan our trip to Peru. They get the big and the little details right every time. Their relationship with the “on the ground” tour companies are superb. The planning phase was orchestrated by James. He determined our interests and got us to reveal the goals and types of experiences we were looking for. Carlos executes the plan with our bookings, hotels, airport assistance, tours and restaurant reservations. Our experience was flawless. Everything went smoothly so we could immerse ourselves into our travel experience. We totally recommend Jacada and James and Carlos for an unbeatable trip.

Really good organisation, thorough documentation, excellent on-the-ground teams and good communications before, during and after the travel event.

We had such a great experience working with Leanne A. and Gita W. on our trip to Japan and Korea. They had great attention to detail, and were incredibly responsive. We had a really special, curated vacation, and the logistics were seamless, which made it all feel very smooth.
