Meet Your Safari Guide

Francis is the guide guests ask for when they want the whole circuit done properly. He runs the southern parks of Amboseli and Tsavo, the Rift Valley loop through Lake Nakuru and Hell's Gate, and the long northern drive up to Samburu and Meru, so a ten day itinerary stays with one familiar face from arrival to airport.

His background in sales, marketing and management shows in how he handles a trip. Timings are communicated clearly, lodge check-ins are handled before you reach the desk, and game drives are planned around light and animal movement rather than a fixed clock. Guests consistently note how calm the logistics feel.

In the field he is patient and quietly persistent. He would rather sit with a sleeping leopard for forty minutes and wait for it to move than chase three distant sightings in the same hour.
