Meet the Huko Safaris Team

The people who plan your safari, drive your route, and answer your questions at 11pm before a permit deadline. Every safari we run is built by someone on this list.

Founders

Enoch Shema

Brand Manager

Enoch is driven by the idea that nature can heal & restore people and communities. He’s inspired by Uganda’s cultural richness and warmth, and he feels most at home in Kidepo National Park, a landscape full of life, color, diverse species, and freedom.

Eric Muwanika

Relations Manager

Eric sees reflections of human life in wildlife: resilience, connection, and balance. His favorite place is Bwindi Impenetrable Forest, a reminder of how fragile and precious conservation really is.

Travel Designers

Simon Obura

Operations Manager

Eight years in the Safari industry have shaped Simon into a steady hand and a sharp field thinker. He loves Uganda’s perfect weather, delicious food, and the incredible variety of wildlife in Murchison Falls: a place he never gets tired of revisiting.

Nicole Buerine

Travel Designer

Nicole brings calm order to the movement behind every safari. She works quietly but confidently, keeping travelers supported from the moment they connect with Huko.

Private Guides

Junior Mumbere

Safari Guide

Junior is happiest in the field, learning and sharing. He believes the more people understand wildlife, the more they care about protecting it. Birds are his curiosity, and he never tires of spotting the next species.

Languages spoken: English

Solomon Ejemu

Safari Guide

Solomon gravitates toward the overlooked. His love for the hyena reflects his belief that every creature deserves a second look, and every traveler deserves a story they didn’t see coming.

Conservation & Community

Racheal Nalwoga

Head of Research & Community Development

Racheal believes travel transforms both visitors and the communities they meet. Her work aims to bridge conservation and local livelihoods, and nothing inspires her like the rhythm and elegance of Baganda dance.

Travel With Real People Who Care

Every safari we design is a partnership between you, our team, and the communities that protect Uganda’s wild spaces.
We can’t wait to welcome you, guide you, and show you the places we love.
