John Urio

Safari Guide

John has been part of the Tanzania-Experience team since 2008 and is valued by colleagues and guests for his many years of experience and kind character.

He fell in love with the idea of being a safari guide on a school trip to Lake Manyara many years ago. Starting as a mechanic, he soon added safari guiding to his skill set and embarked on his dream career.

John shares a fascination and love for big cats with many of his guests, always scouting for lions when on safari. Hiking in the Usambara Mountains is another of his favourite activities while out and about with his guests.

A family man and nature lover that he is, he makes sure his three children grow up appreciating Tanzania’s wildlife and natural heritage.
