About Me

Rhino Adventure Tours was founded by Ngorongoro Conservation Area's (NCA) ranger DONATUS GADIYE in 1998. Donatus was encouraged to take up guiding by friends and tourists on safari who came to appreciate his confident leadership style and unbounded knowlege of East Africa. Heading their influence Donatus enrolled in two semester long wilderness courses put on by the National Outdoor Leadership School (www.nols.edu - which has its international headquarters in Lander, Wyoming, USA). NOLS helped Donatus to refine skills like rock climbing, mountaineering, backpacking, and safari driving, with a focus on "Leave No Trace" wilderness ethics and other ecotourism models. Donatus passed these courses with distinction, acquiring the necessary skills to become a superior guide.
