JOHNNY

With his unwavering passion for Africa, Johnny founded J.R. Chipman Safaris, introducing a new era of exceptional adventures. Each safari is unique because Johnny and his team strive to understand their client’s needs, creating a perfect blend of stunning views and unforgettable experiences that surpass all expectations.

“When I take a group on safari, I have one goal- give them an experience they’ll remember for a lifetime. And have a lot of fun, of course. So, two goals, I guess.”

Born and raised in Kenya to an adventurous Australian family, Johnny carries the spirit of Africa in his heart. The wilderness became his playground, where he discovered hidden treasures and embraced the wonders that awaited him. Growing up immersed in the tapestry of local tribal customs and languages, he developed a deep connection with the East African people and their rich heritage.

Johnny has been working in the safari industry for more than 25 years, exploring the uncharted terrains of Africa with great enthusiasm, curiosity, and expertise.
