About me

I’m the founder of Gemfinders Safaris, a licensed safari DMC based in Kenya, specialising in private tailor-made safaris across Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda, and Rwanda.

We design mid-range, luxury, and fly-in itineraries for international travellers and partner with travel advisors, tour operators, and retreat planners who need reliable on-ground execution in East Africa.

Our focus: strong logistics, honest pricing, and wildlife-first experiences — from the Masai Mara migration to gorilla trekking and multi-country circuits.

Open to collaboration with:
• International travel advisors
• Lodges & boutique camps
• Conservation and sustainability partners
• Corporate retreat organisers

Why did you join the community?

What is your favorite travel destination?

The Masai Mara during migration season — nothing compares to the energy of the plains when predators are active and herds are moving.

Where do you dream of traveling to?

Namibia’s Skeleton Coast and Patagonia — remote landscapes with strong conservation focus always draw me in.

What was your first travel job?

On-ground safari operations and logistics coordination in Kenya — learning the realities behind seamless guest experiences.

How global travel advisors are adapting to changing booking behaviour and building long-term sustainable partnerships.

Three words that describe why we should travel?

Perspective. Connection. Wildness.
