Kind and experienced team able to create unforgettable moments.
We had a great time with Equatorial Star, Duncan and Nancy are excellent communicators - clear, detailed and honest from start to finish. Every single person we met through them, from guides taking us up Mount Kenya to the driver on our safari were exceptionally knowledgeable and helpful.
The team created an unforgettable experience for us as our honeymoon, creating memories that will last our lifetime. We can’t recommend them highly enough, for whatever adventure you’re taking on in Kenya.

Unforgettable 5-day Mount Kenya trek with Equatorial Star
The 5-day Mount Kenya trek with Equatorial Star was magical from start to finish.
Right from the beginning, communication with Duncan was seamless, clear, and efficient. We had all the necessary details to prepare thoroughly for this unforgettable adventure. We ascended via the Sirimon route and descended along the Chogoria route, the ideal combination, pairing a gradual ascent with breathtaking scenery on the way down.
Our guides, Lawrence and Juma, were outstanding, as was the entire porter crew. Thanks to their support, the whole itinerary went exactly as planned in a great atmosphere and with a truly tailored approach.
If you are planning to climb Mount Kenya, go with Duncan at Equatorial Star without hesitation. The service, professionalism, and overall value for money are unbeatable!

Mount Kenya experience
I had a very good experience climbing Mount Kenya with this agency. Everything was well organized from start to finish. There was always plenty of food, and throughout the trek I felt well looked after by the whole team.
They were also very helpful with the logistics before the climb, arranging the rental of a sleeping bag and down jacket for me, and helping with some last-minute gear requests.
The team was friendly, reliable and supportive throughout the experience. I would recommend them to anyone planning to climb Mount Kenya.

Unforgettable Private Mt. Kenya Trek – Exceptional Service from Start to Finish!
Equatorial Star Adventures is a phenomenal local operator based in Nairobi. I am incredibly glad I chose them for my solo trek! I booked a private 6-day itinerary on Mt. Kenya via the scenic Chogoria-Sirimon route, which included a technical climb attempt of Batian Peak.
From the initial booking inquiries to the final descent, the communication and organization were flawless. Duncan and his entire crew—the lead guide, the support porters, the specialized technical climbing guide, and the camp chef—were amazing. Traveling solo, I felt completely safe, welcomed, and supported every step of the way. It was nice to hear their stories about life on the mountain. Towards the end, I felt like I was with family.
The attention to detail was impressive. The tents were well-maintained, and the food was outstanding—warm, fresh, and highly nourishing after long hours on the trail. The team's genuine passion for the mountain shines through in everything they do.
While I ultimately did not summit Batian Peak this time due to the intense technical demands (a great reminder that I need more specialized training and the altitude is no joke!), the trek up to Point Lenana was breathtaking. The scenery along the Chogoria route is unmatched.
When I return to conquer Batian, Duncan is the only person I will call. I highly recommend Equatorial Star Adventures for anyone looking to explore Mt. Kenya. You will be in the best hands possible!
Thank you so much for this incredible experience, Duncan! It has been the highlight of my trip to Kenya!
Excellent Mount Kenya experience – 10/10!
I used Equitorial Star for my Mount Kenya hike and had an absolutely excellent experience. Duncan was incredibly professional, reliable, kind and patient. I had multiple changes and rescheduling requests, as well as adjustments to the itinerary, and he went above and beyond every time to make things work. His communication, flexibility and willingness to help were exceptional.
The hiking team were also fantastic. The guides were professional, experienced and genuinely caring. The food was good, the tents were pitched for us, and after long days of hiking they even brought us little treats like cookies and popcorn. They also provided warm water for us to wash our faces, which was such a thoughtful touch after a tiring day.
Everyone was so willing to help and made the whole experience comfortable and enjoyable. I would highly recommend Equitorial Star to anyone planning to hike Mount Kenya. Duncan and his team made a challenging adventure feel incredibly well organised and supported.
10/10 – I would absolutely use them again!
