I am a passionate and experienced Ugandan safari guide with over 9 years in the tourism industry.

After completing my Bachelor’s Degree in Travel and Tourism Management at Makerere University Business School in 2016, I began my career with Wildfrontiers, where I was based in Murchison Falls National Park for three years. In 2019, I transitioned into mainstream guiding and am proud to work for African Unique Safaris and Tours in Rwanda & Uganda.

Beyond guiding, I am a self-taught wildlife photographer, a passionate birder, and a dedicated cultural and nature interpreter, offering guests enriching and memorable safari experiences.

I take pride in combining professionalism, deep field knowledge, and a personal touch in guiding. Married and a proud father, I bring warmth and authenticity to every safari, ensuring my clients feel both safe and inspired as they explore Uganda’s wilderness.
