Wonderful 5-day Mount Kenya Trek with a great team
I had a fantastic time doing a 5-day trek to Mount Kenya with Mountain Hiking Ventures. The communication with Irene during booking and pre-departure was smooth and she answered all of my many questions that I had. I met my excellent guide Kevin and porter Stanley at the office on the morning of departure where I also left my suitcase while going on the trek. We travelled by a shared minibus to Nanyuki where we also picked up the equipment I rented and then started the trek in the afternoon. The trekking itself was amazing with beautiful views. Kevin kept a good pace throughout the trek to help me adapt to the high altitude (I am an experienced hiker but I had not been to altitude above 2500 m before this trek). He was also always keen to tell me about the fascinating plants and animals we saw along the way (I am a biologist so this was very welcome!) and we had a great time chatting about life in Kenya. We reached the summit successfully which was amazing (but very cold and windy, even for a person who lives in Scotland!). The rest of the team, Stanley, Morris, and Naftari, were all super friendly and hospitable, always tried to make my experience as good as possible, and prepared some amazing meals for me (in fact, there was always more than I could eat!). I did the Sirimon Up and Chogoria Down version of the trip which I thought was a great choice with very good spacing of the camps along the elevation gradient and sufficient time to relax in the camps after hiking. Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed my experience and can absolutely recommend Kevin and the rest of the group to anyone who is considering doing this trek!

Professional
Overall the experience was excellent and we were lucky enough to see quite a lot of animals. Professional drivers and I also met other friendly tourists. Hotel is less fancy and has some power supply issues but it’s understandable given its location in the wild.

A Service That Exceeds Your Expectations
I had an amazing experience with Mountain Hiking Ventures.
They not only take you to the top of the mountains safely, but also introduce you to Kenyan culture, people, and cuisine.
I’m confident their service will exceed your expectations.

Amazing experience
I did the mount kenya by sirimon and chogoria road and seriously it was definitely the best experience of my life. Samy, Patrick, and John did the three-day hike with me and were incredible!! They took such good care of me, making sure I had everything I needed! Especially Patrick, who cooked me three excellent meals a day.
I will never forget it. Thank you again!!!
