Amazing trip to Mt.Kenya
Me and my Brother took a 6 days hike to Mt.Kenya together With Arch Trek and Safaries.
We got good information from James before the trip, and much more when he picket us up at the hotel on the starting day.
We went on the hike With six others, a guide, porters and chef. Everyone talked English. We were well taken care of in regards of safety. In addition, we recieved much information about the surrounding, the Food was over all expectations, and the tent and huts were great. We had a lovely time, and we can absolutely recommend this Company to others.

Best experience ever! Best safari tour!
We had the most amazing 5 days safari visiting Masai mara, Lake Nakuru and Lake Naivasha. Arch Trecs and Safari gave us a warm welcome to Kenya. Before going to Kenya we red about places which are the best to visit but James gave us very good and useful suggestions regarding out tour. He always was in contact with us and quick with email replies. He made our 5 days trip plan better than any other company. I loved Masai mara and Sarova where we stayed and of course both lakes are worth to see. We had the best safari driver William. We managed to see big 5. He is very experienced and told us a lot about Kenya, wild life and exotic birds. With Arch Trecs we felt more like a tour with our friends. Will recommend them 100% and we hope to come back to Kenya soon to see migration. We will definitely come back to Arch Trecs and Safaris and already told to all our friends. Thank you for such a great tour and experience!

Fantastic experience, incredible safari, excellent hotels and great value.
Every part of our 5 day trip to Kenya was superb and we have much to thank James at Archtrek Safaris for this. He accommodated our every need in what was a relatively short trip. The welcome was excellent. Hotels beautiful. Driver (David) a true gent and safari sensational (we saw each of the big 5). And all at a relatively affordable price. The trip was the last leg of our Honeymoon and I couldn't recommend Archtrek safaris more highly. 10/10.

Short 2-day holiday/research trek to Aberdare NP
On my way back from Malawi I only had a very short time in Kenya in which I hoped to achieve two things a. undertake some private research around the northern part of the Aberdare NP and b. hike to the top of Satima, but via Shamata and Rhino gates.
James was unfailingly helpful in, firstly, exploring the various options and developing a sensible detailed plan that had the best chance of working, and then once I was in Kenya, providing a very professional service which indeed allowed me to achieve all I wished to (.... the early morning hike up to Satima from Shamata campsite was absolutely stunning, offering beautiful views of Mt Kenya across the way).
I know my trip was unusual and, being only two days, was not at all typical, however the preparation Archtrek put into it and the care James took over it was as if I was booking a 10 day safari.
I think many operators in Kenya offer only standard 'packages' or very slightly modified ones thereof.
On my experience Archtrek would appear to be able to arrange absolutely anything at all that you require.
Highly recommended.

5 Day Safari Trek in Kenya
We researched many Safari organizers, and settled with James at Arch Treks and Safaris. he was responsive, and we were seeking a semi-luxury tour. We had a single driver (David) for the entire week, and he was dedicated, knowledgeable and quite pleasant.
The ability to modify the tour, and keep it private for the three of us was truly important. I will use James' service again, and highly recommend his passion and knowledge.

Excellent, personalized service from start to finish
My fiancé and I took 5 day tour through 3 Kenyan parks - Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru, and Amboseli. The Arch Treks team met us at our Nairobi hotel and we were off. Our driver/guide Ken was wonderful. He pointed out interesting sites along the drive, and his skills and talents at finding wildlife while on safari was outstanding. He repeatedly found animals both large and small and we were able to enjoy their magnificence for a long time before other tours descended on us. We saw all of the Big Five on the trip. We also loved the accommodations. All of the tented camps were what we expected, and we enjoyed meeting the staff who were all pleasant and full of energy. We wholeheartedly recommend Arch Treks and Safaris.
