Welcome to JAfrica Safari Tours to Africa

Joshua Ole Monaha of JAfrica Safaris in Tanzania

I am Joshua Ole Monah, I am an Elder from the Laitayok Clan of the Maasai Tribe of East Africa. Very welcome to my website (karibu sana).

I hope you stick around a while and enjoy looking at the wonderful adventures here and our many safari tours to Africa.

I am very privileged to live here, It is a wonderous place and every day I learn something new about my home, our people and the wildlife that surrounds us here.

Your guides, drivers and cooks are Morrans and Elders from the local Maasai Tribe, this is our land, we grew-up tending goats and cattle on these planes, our knowledge of the ecosystem can’t be learned in a book, it is instinctive, it is in our DNA.

We will ensure you have a safari experience like no other. You will be treated to real Tanzanian Maasai hospitality, safaris don’t get more real than this.

The team and myself look forward to welcoming you in person to The Serengeti and all it beholds on one of our Safari Tours to Africa.

If you have questions, and you will have many i’m sure, please feel free to contact me on Whatsapp or Telegram or send me an email and I will reply as soon as I can.

Joshua is a Maasai, a trained wildlife biologist and behavioralist, National Outdoor Leadership School alum and one heck of an amazing guide for our 8 day trek with him June/July 2019.

We love birding, but were clueless as to what we were seeing. Joshua could tell us within seconds what birds we were seeing, look it up one of his many bird books and go into as great of detail as we wanted about the migration, habitat and perhaps a story or two for our entertainment.

[bg_collapse view=”link” color=”#ff9946″ icon=”arrow” expand_text=”Show More” collapse_text=”Show Less” ]He was so respectful of the animals, and would often avoid the masses and take us to places that few knew about so we could have very private animal viewing experiences.

We saw other guides who were playing on their phones while their guests were watching a jaguar and her cub play. They asked to borrow our binoculars because their hired ‘guide’ didn’t have any for them to use. Be careful on what companies you use. Better to go with Joshua who will create a custom trip for you on whatever you want to see and do and will make sure you have an amazing trip. [/bg_collapse]

  Based upon a recommendation from two sets of dear friends who have both traveled with Joshua Monah, we hired Joash Africa Wilderness Insight Limited ("JAfrica") for our Serengeti safari and... read more could not be more pleased with our choice or experience for a number of reasons,  including Joshua's:  - KNOWLEDGE:  His intelligence about the park and animals is extraordinary, and he has a "sixth sense" on where and when to find them, even the most elusive!  He knew the answer to every question we asked him about the animals and we -- both the teens and the adults in our group --  learned more than we ever could have imagined. This was my 4th African safari and by far my most favorite!  - GEAR: JAfrica's safari vehicle is very comfortable and it outfitted with everything one could need, including a charging station, guide books, a cooler of cold drinks, and so much more. Joshua's camera was far better than our own and he helped us to capture images on a memory card he gave to us that we will treasure forever.  - AUTHENTICITY: At our request, he helped us to plan a safari that was a true Tanzanian experience; other operators who proposed itineraries seemed to pitch only the properties with surface-level gloss; Joshua had recommendations that were lesser known gems; just what we were looking for but could not have found without him!  - HOSPITALITY: Joshua went above and beyond to ensure that we were taken care of at every step of our time in Tanzania -- from the moment we landed at the Kilimanjaro airport until the moment we left to return home. And we knew that, in Joshua's very capable hands, we were not only safe but that every detail of our journey and adventures had been thoughtfully and thoroughly attended to, both in advance and in the moment.  - FLEXIBILITY: When our arrival in Tanzania was nearly 3 days delayed due to an unexpected delay in our COVID test results, the itinerary we'd planned so carefully with Joshua was affected. But Joshua jumped in to the rescue. While we were (finally!) en route to JRO from the US, he made dozens of calls to properties and local airlines on our behalf to help us modify our plans and make up for the time we had lost. We could never have accomplished this without JAfrica; it required a trusted partner on the ground with established and mutually respectful business relationships, who was fluent in Swahili, and who was looking out for our best interests.  - TEAM: Joshua is amazing, and his team is also. This includes his business partner and brother, Moses, who took very good care of us pre-safari. His team member, Richard, served as our excellent driver and guide in Karatu post-safari. Everyone on the JAfrica team is top notch.  - FRIENDSHIP: It was impossible not to become fast friends with Joshua immediately and, over the course of our time together, he became a dear friend.    If any or all of the above are important to you when hiring a guide in Tanzania, I highly recommend hiring Joshua and his company. You will be in the best of hands and will not regret it.

  Where do I start!! Joshua is honestly the most knowledgeable person I have come to know! We had crossed paths while with a group in Africa. While on his tour... read more he shared so many stories and personal experiences that made my trip one I could never forget. Not to mention that fact

  So happy to hear Joshua has his own safari company now.  Known him from when he was our guide with another outfitter.  He really made the trip. ... read more I am from Africa and thought I knew it all since I have been on many safaris.  Joshua is thoughtful and attentive, a skilled spotter and knows the area extremely well.  He even helped some of the other guides who got lost from time to time.  Joshua is respectful of his environment but still manages to bring one very close to the animals without disturbing them. Amazing how one can pick up on the behaviour of animals when one can get that close to sit and observe.  I'll go on a safari with Josh anytime.
