Our luxury wildlife adventures discover astonishing and incredible creatures. Safari to find the Big Five, cruise the Galápagos for unique marine life or hike in search of gorillas. Meet the migration, seek out orangutans, swim with turtles and so much more.
At Jacada we have a huge passion for wildlife. Conservation and positive impact are at the heart of what we do so it’s no surprise that our team of travel designers will deliver an extra level of expertise and passion when it comes to planning your wildlife and safari adventure.
We forge excellent relationships with biologists, zoologists, indigenous and local guides whose knowledge of wildlife and environment is invaluable when seeking out meaningful and exciting encounters. They know when bucket list experiences and iconic sightings are important and equally when it’s time to show you the small and the unusual.
From walking shoulder to shoulder with Maasai guides in Tanzania, to heading out on an epic adventure to spot the big cats or India, and meeting the charming penguins of Antarctica, a myriad wildlife activities await.
All of our trips are fully bespoke and tailored to suit you personally, including some of the best luxury lodges and hotels within nature and close to wildlife across the world.
