Plan your trip

For whom

For those who love adventure and like to take control, a self-drive trip is the perfect choice! Whether you are a seasoned traveler who wants to go off the beaten track, or you are looking for an adventurous way to discover the beauty of Africa. Our self-drive trips are designed for everyone.

Accommodations

A self-drive journey doesn’t always mean camping under the stars with a tent on the roof. For those who crave luxury and comfort during their self-drive adventure, we offer the option of driving from lodge to lodge. These luxury self-drive experiences combine freedom with the refinement of high-end accommodation.

Activities

Embark on your own adventure with a self-drive experience from Your Africa Journey and be enchanted by breathtaking landscapes. From vast savannahs to rolling hills, lush rainforests and majestic mountains, our self-drive routes take you to the most enchanting places on the African continent.

Unique experiences

From views of stunning landscapes not found in travel guides to spontaneous encounters with hospitable locals: on a self-drive trip you will experience the true highlights of Africa.

Your tailor-made self-drive adventure

Step off the beaten track and discover the true heart of Africa with a tailor-made self-drive journey. Taking the wheel yourself means the freedom to leave the beaten track and stop wherever you want. This opens the door to spontaneous encounters that leave an indelible impression, where the locals will conquer your heart. At Jouw Afrika Reis we share a passion for self-drive adventures in both Southern and Eastern Africa. Although self-drive journeys in Southern Africa, such as Namibia, Botswana and South Africa, are well-known, the often undiscovered East Africa remains in the shadows. We shape your travel experience completely according to your wishes, but always far away from the masses.

Travel at your own pace

Self-driving offers a sense of freedom and spontaneity. It is the sensation of complete escape, away from the daily grind and doing what you feel like doing. Stopping at the most unexpected places or taking an unknown path leads to unforgettable discoveries, such as finding the most beautiful views.

Accommodations

Most travellers opt for the usual routes, but there is so much more to explore. Discover the unknown gems with Your Africa Journey, such as wildlife parks in South Africa, the rugged north of Uganda and the hidden south of Tanzania. These unbeaten paths are perfect for a self-drive adventure.

Meetings with the local population

In popular tourist destinations it is often difficult to make authentic contact with the local population. With a self-drive experience you get the chance to experience local life up close. Have a spontaneous chat on the street and discover how hospitable and helpful the people are.

Impression of the journey

Carefree driving in well-maintained cars

At Jouw Afrika Reis we understand that quality and reliable service are essential for a carefree journey. Our rental cars are a maximum of three years old and of high-quality, reliable brands. Experienced mechanics regularly check all vehicles. In East Africa, our cars are equipped with an emergency button for immediate assistance, and a smartphone for constant accessibility on the road. Enjoy well-maintained cars, always accessibility and combine freedom with the unique guide experience from your accommodation. This way you can drive yourself without having to figure everything out yourself. On to a carefree adventure!

Uganda

From savannahs to tropical rainforest, mountains, Lake Victoria, the Nile and the desert: the diverse and adventurous Uganda is not nicknamed ‘the Pearl of Africa’ for nothing! Follow your own rhythm and be surprised by encounters with the warm and hospitable population.

Tanzania

Tanzania is a dream for nature lovers. Here you will find the most amazing landscapes and the largest concentration of wild animals in the world. But the Tanzanians themselves will also conquer your heart. Your Africa Travel will gladly show you the lesser-known parts of this beautiful country.

South Africa

From the African bush to beautiful mountain ranges, sandy beaches, dense forests and winelands: no country is as diverse in terms of landscapes as South Africa.

How we increase our impact: the social projects of Your Africa Journey

Our travels inevitably have an impact. We do everything we can to make it as positive as possible. For example, we support various social projects to improve the lives of the local population. Such as the Songo youth centre. Here, underprivileged children from a large township in Stellenbosch can go for after-school activities, focused on study and sports. The children receive help with their homework and can get rid of their energy with Songo’s mountain bikes and cross bikes. These activities increase their chances of escaping poverty.
