Joel Mfinanga
Northern Guide
Joel started with Nomad in 2008 as a waiter at Chada in Katavi National Park. Being so comfortable and confident around guests, it didn’t take him long to become a transfer driver and then a guide in 2013 in what is now the Nyerere National Park. After a year of guiding in the wilds of Nyerere, he moved to Ruaha National Park and became one of the top guides at Kigelia Ruaha before moving on to Lamai in the northern Serengeti.
Joel has since joined our roving band of northern guides and travels throughout the parks and reserves. One of the most enjoyable parts of the job for him is meeting people from around the world and exchanging different ideas on different topics.
