Behind the scenes
The word “ONDABA” simply means “Do you see me”? It can be further understood as whether you see me and understand my hidden potential!
Therefore, the brand name “Ondaba Africa Safaris” comes up in a question phrase to your mind of whether you have seen or heard of Africa and understand the real Continent. To give answers to such questions, we are the “ONDABA AFRICA SAFARIS”, the priority for the majority.
The company was started by a Ugandan young man called Mukwaya Nasser born in the eastern part of Uganda, whose original home village is just 21km from Jinja city. This is where the source of river Nile starts from.
Nasser works with nine (9) other partners in running this company, including 4 females and 5 males since the company believes much in gender equality. These are all local tour guides from Uganda, Rwanda, Kenya, and Tanzania.
Nasser is a tour guide by professional with a bachelor’s degree from Makerere university in Uganda and according to him, he gained the dream of becoming a tour guide at the age of 14 when he took a school trip with fellow students in high school.
He has been in the field of tour guiding since 2017 and has obtained a very positive reputation in this field. This is evidenced by hundreds of travelers that have written and recommended him for being a clever guide on different platforms like TripAdvisor and Google. He is therefore being considered as a professional local tour guide.
It is therefore clearly confirmed that this is a fully traditional African company owned and run by local people from East Africa.
