The Faces Behind the Journey
Ismael Nsengiyumva | Senior Guide
Ish has been guiding in Rwanda for more than 14 years and brings with him a calm presence, sharp field skills, and a real gift for storytelling.
He’s especially known for his work with mountain gorillas and birdlife, but it’s the way he shares what he knows—with humility, humor, and heart—that guests remember most.
"I’ve spent years walking these forests, and they still surprise me. The more you listen, the more they teach you—and that’s what I love passing on to guests."
– Ismael Nsengiyumva
Daniel Nizeye | Founder & Managing Director
Danny founded Inyambo with a clear purpose: to create the kind of DMC he always wished existed. With more than 13 years of experience in Rwanda’s high-end tourism and aviation sectors, he brings both operational depth and a deep pride in his home country to the table.
He began his career in guest-facing roles and grew into senior leadership, so he knows firsthand how much thought and work go into making a trip run well. That hands-on background shapes everything Inyambo does—from the way we communicate to the way we handle the smallest details.
"Rwanda isn’t just where I work—it’s home. What drives me is helping our partners share the richness of this place in a way that’s thoughtful, real, and done properly."
– Daniel Nizeye
Safari Segatarama | Senior Guide
With over 16 years in the field, Safari is one of Rwanda’s most experienced and well-loved guides. He’s known for his deep wildlife knowledge—especially when it comes to primates—and for the easy, joyful way he connects with people.
Whether leading a gorilla trek or sharing stories on the trail, Safari creates space for guests to slow down, ask questions, and feel completely at home in the wild.
"There’s nothing better than watching someone experience Rwanda for the first time. If I can help them laugh, learn something, and feel connected—that’s a good day."
