TESTIMONIALS
I spent three weeks with Alex traveling across Kenya doing research. He was an exceptional colleague and guide. His natural history knowledge is strong, including identifying birds by song/call. He had extensive knowledge about where to find species of interest saving us valuable time. In addition, his local knowledge and contacts allowed us to travel smoothly and comfortably. Just as importantly, his calm demeanor and easy going attitude kept us laughing and happy throughout our travels. I plan to come back for a longer period to visit more remote locations and will be going with Alex for sure.

As a PhD student working on Variation in inflammation as a correlate of range expansion in Kenyan house sparrows I had worked with many field assistants until fortunately, I met Alex Mutati. I was in the field with him for three months, and the last month coincided with general elections in Kenya. Mutati, was very organized, showed keen attention to details of my field project. He was incredibly knowledgeable in many things, most being birds and mammals; keen and patient to answer my many questions. On the eve of election when it was suspected that chaos would erupt in Kenya, he took me to the safety of his rural home in Kamba land. Indeed, my field expedition was awesome, and it exceeded my expectations beyond my wildest dreams; and honestly I would recommend anyone to Mutati, as a field assistant and naturalist guide.

It is a time that I will always treasure and you made it all possible. Â Alex you are truly gifted at your job and made the three month extra special. I went on the trip with high expectations and you exceeded them. I only hope in the future I will be able to have you take our entire family!!! I would love for them to have a similar experience. You were so incredibly knowledgeable and patient with the ten thousand questions.
