Nickson Moshi
Nickson Moshi has been guiding in Africa since he was 15 years old. He now has a very successful business and is a leader of his tribe of 3,000 people in Tanzania. Being the owner and founder of Masai Giraffe, Nickson offers his individual expertise as a game tracker, and as a dedicated, conscientious guide. His extensive knowledge about the wildlife, geography, plant life, the history, people, and culture of Tanzania adds an invaluable perspective to your Mt. Kilimanjaro adventure. Nickson serves as the head Kilimanjaro guide for MountainVision and has guided more than 100 of our clients to the summit safely.
Nickson’s appreciation for the environment, animal life, and natural wonders of his home country comes across in the manner in which he conducts his safaris, hikes, and activities. Being born and raised in Tanzania, he does not offer activities other than those about which he is personally knowledgeable. The guides and porters he professionally chooses to accompany his clients on those activities are, in Nickson’s estimation, some of the most qualified and responsible available. The guides are fluent in English while some also speak Italian, German, and other European languages.
