Our story

A small company with a big welcome

Johventure Tours Africa was started in Arusha by Johannes Godfrey, who wanted to show visitors his country the way he loves it: slowly, calmly and with real care.

We are a young company and proud of it. We take only a few groups at a time, answer every message ourselves and show full prices from the first reply. Our safaris are private, our routes follow the seasons, and we are with you on WhatsApp from your first question until you are home again.

  • Private 4x4 with pop-up roof on every safari
  • Full prices — park fees, guide and lodges included
  • Help on WhatsApp before and during your trip
The Johventure promise

Four promises on every trip

Included at no extra cost, whether you book three days or three weeks.

Free changes while you plan

Pay only after we confirm

Guest reviews

Be one of our first guests

Johventure is a new company, so we do not have a wall of reviews yet — and we will never invent them. What we can promise is the care that earns them.

  • Your trip gets our full attention — we take only a few groups at a time
  • Nothing to pay until your dates are confirmed
  • Real reviews appear here as soon as our guests share them

Travelled with us?

Tell other travellers how it was. We read every word and it helps a small local company more than you know.

Travel with respect

Good for guests, good for Tanzania

  • We keep a respectful distance from animals and never chase a sighting.
  • We work with local guides, cooks, porters and locally owned camps where we can.
  • Village and coffee visits are arranged with the families, and they are paid fairly.
