Founded in 1998 by seasoned safari guide Moses Kipketer, Popo Tour & Travel began with a simple vision: to share the magic of Africa's wilderness with the world while respecting local communities and conservation efforts.

With over 25 years of experience in the tourism industry, Moses combined his deep knowledge of African ecosystems with a passion for authentic cultural exchange, establishing Popo as one of Kenya's most trusted safari operators.
