PURELY TANZANIA

About us

 

Pure Afro Travels has been crafting authentic Tanzanian journeys since 2004, with over two decades of safaris, treks, cultural encounters, and beach escapes, all guided by the same family that founded the company.

We are a boutique operator, which means every itinerary we offer is built around you. Many of our guests come back year after year, and a significant number find us through the recommendations of people they trust. That kind of loyalty means everything to us. It is the clearest sign we are doing something right.

Every photo in our galleries and across our social media on Instagram or Facebook was taken by our team or our guests, out in the field on real trips. No stock images, no staging, just the animals, landscapes, and moments our clients actually experienced, captured with whatever camera they had in hand. Browse through and see Tanzania the way our guests do.

Whether you are planning your first safari or you know exactly what you are looking for, we are here to make it seamless. From your arrival in Tanzania to your departure, we take care of everything: transfers, accommodation, safaris, treks, cultural tours, local flights, and beach stays. Every itinerary we present is a starting point. Your version of it is what matters.

Welcome, and thank you for visiting our website. It is my great pleasure to invite you to discover the magical world of Pure Afro Travels.

Why travel with us? Because your experience is our mission. We hand-pick every accommodation, safari, and activity we offer, choosing only what we would be proud to recommend to a close friend. Over more than two decades in Tanzanian tourism, we have learned to truly listen to our clients, and to deliver on what they are hoping for. That personal attention is something larger operators rarely have the time or inclination to offer. For us, it is simply how we work.

Tanzania is also my home, and I carry a deep, personal commitment to the communities and wild places that make it so extraordinary. We actively support local conservation and community development, and I warmly invite you to read about our ongoing projects on our dedicated page: TRAVELS WITH A PURPOSE.

This is a country of remarkable contrasts. Africa’s highest mountain. Its largest lake. World-famous wildlife reserves, pristine sandy beaches, a tropical climate, and a culture of extraordinary richness and warmth. This is Tanzania, my beautiful country.

Karibu sana. You are most welcome.

I grew up in Slovenia, a small European country with a long tradition of curious, adventurous travellers, and the travel bug found me early. I have explored many corners of this wonderful planet, but Africa kept coming up in conversations as something altogether different. People said it was special. They were right.

My first encounter with Africa was Tanzania, and it captured me immediately. The natural beauty, the energy, the sheer diversity of landscapes and life felt like nothing I had experienced before.

By profession I am an economist with a background in management and marketing, but I have always had an adventurous heart. When the opportunity came to promote Tanzania and share it with the world, I did not hesitate. It became both my work and my passion.

At Pure Afro Travels, our team is knowledgeable, experienced, and genuinely enthusiastic about what they do. Our specialised DISTINCTLY BOUTIQUE packages bring a new dimension to what a safari can be, whether you are heading into the bush, up a mountain, or down to the coast. We will make sure your time in Tanzania is truly unforgettable.

Come and find out for yourself. You will not leave disappointed. Karibu!
