Our family of staff is core to our success, and we are incredibly fortunate to have such a special bunch of folk at Nomad. In a business like ours there are very many cogs that keep the wheel turning, and we think it is important that the background folk are never taken for granted. We want to make sure stories are heard, achievements are recognised, and that our team have every opportunity they deserve to climb within the company. We are endlessly inspired by them, and we are delighted to be able to share them and their stories with you.

Amos grew up in a village called Mbilikili. Life was challenging and poaching was often the main way of life. Amos seized an opportunity to join Nomad and is now one of many, empowered to give back to their communities.

Sweet dreams are indeed made of this.

In the entire park, there is not a single road, so your entire experience will be on foot. This is a wholly unique wilderness and a long way off the beaten track. But the lake, the beaches, the extraordinary forest, and of course the chimpanzees all make it a journey well worth undertaking.

Sweet dreams are indeed made of this.

Greystoke Mahale, on the shores of Lake Tanganyika, has been around for many years. In the far and not much-explored west of Tanzania, it’s the best place in the country (probably in all Africa, actually, outside of the Democratic Republic of the Congo) to observe chimpanzees in their natural habitats.

Safari game drives are commonplace on the continent, but few do them like Nomad. Its camps are not only located in some of the most far flung corners of the country, but are a mix of permanent sites, removable tents that disappear with the seasons, and mobile camps that mirror migration routes.
