Passion

Love and passion for nature have become his job. Deep connoisseur of wild fauna and flora during safaris he is able to transmit all his passion to you, making your adventure unique and unforgettable.

Knowledge and professionalism

Keen observer of the savannah and of the animals, he looks at the tracks and the excrement, very important signals to understand the movements of the animals. Hear the calls of the savannah and its animals. Always alert and attentive to any movement, he always manages to involve his guests by making them understand that the safari is not only a race for the best photography, but it is also the culture and traditions of a people who for years have fought for their freedom. The benefit of being a Kenyan native his knowledge goes beyond the books he has read but is something deeper. He can identify the footprints, the verses, the habits of each animal species. He knows the name of all plants and any beneficial properties for human health. After years spent in the savannah he has gained a deep experience and knowledge on mammals, birds, geology, botany etc ... the savannah has few secrets for him.

Masoud and the elephants

He stops, takes a handful of dirt and drops it to see the direction of the wind. Watch the elephants while with a soft step they move silently. He watches them closely, trying to figure out which direction they will go if they cross the road near the jeep. He knows they will pass by, so he turns off the engine and, keeping a safe distance, lets the pachyderms pass.

Patience

He says: "Time passes slowly in the savannah, it takes time, patience, and above all experience to find the animals and observe them closely without disturbing them or compromising the safety and respect for the environment in which they live." Nature is generous and you always surprises. Loving nature and animals means respecting them. Never disturb or provoke them, you have to learn to know and admire them.

Passion for motorbike

The motorbike is his second great passion. Member of the Coast Riders – Mombasa,  in his spare time he likes to travel on his motorbike to discover the hidden corners of his country. There Coast Riders-Mombasa is a union of motorcyclists from Mombasa and its surroundings, whose purpose is to create harmony on motorbikers in the coastal part of Kenya and in the process create brotherhood, solidarity and unity among the people of this part of the country and beyond. The non-profit association raises funds from private entities and volunteers, which it then distributes to the various villages in the hinterland where poverty is most felt.

The savannah is his land, his life and his blood.

Forever wild hismaxim!
