Wilfred (Kakae) Saiteu
Northern Guide
Wilfred, athough some guests may remember him as Kakae, has traveled from the top of the mountains of Greystoke Mahale to the wide Rufiji of Sand Rivers Selous, and then up to the far north of the Serengeti and Lamai. There is very little of Tanzania's national parks that he hasn't passed through.
Kakae has led a interesting life and we are always learning something new when we get him talking. With a degree in Wildlife Conservation and Management to his name, Kakae found a job working with Norwegian geologists carrying out 'Limnology Studies' at Lake Natron. Every evening they would sit around the fire telling stories of African and European cultures and their respective wildlife, and the more Kakae spoke of his love for the Tanzania wilderness, the more he realized there was a lot more to life than brine and sodium carbonate!
He's been guiding for Nomad for a number of years now, fascinating all our Greystoke guests with his general knowledge and passion for the chimps. His move to the Selous allowed him to experience a very different area and type of wildlife and we're delighted that he remains part of the Nomad family in the Serengeti.
