Reviews
The tour operator is very reliable and quick to respond to emails, also they are very accomodating.
Our booking for the trek on mt. Kenya was really easy, we got a detailed itinerary, which was very helpful. I had some problems with sending my down payment through a wire transfer, so they made a payment link, where I could easily pay with my credit card.
The pickup was very punctual and we got driven in a comfortable van.
The trek itself went without any problems, we had a wonderful team of cooks, porters and guides who do the most amazing work! They offered us tea as soon as we sat down in the accomodations and the food was also wonderful. Our guide was very knowledgeable and taught us a lot about the wildlife and flora on mt. Kenya. When summiting we encountered quite a lot of snow, but with the mastery of our guide we managed to conquer this beautiful mountain.
All in all it was the most special experience in all of our vacation.
Deep thanks again to Cecilia, Peterson, Peter, Pirip, Patrick and Jay.

A top-notch local agency!

(For French speakers) If you're comfortable with the language barrier and speak English, you can contact them without any problem. For the price, they were excellent. I got numerous quotes elsewhere, and they were the best and most responsive. They offer a wide range of accommodation options. Personally, the two I chose for Maasai Mara (Keekorok Mara) and Amboseli (Oltukai Lodge) were really great. The accommodation in Naivasha (Panorama Hotel) was a bit dated, but the rest—the restaurant and the view—were absolutely fantastic! 👍 Joseph, who was with us the whole time, is a superb driver. He has excellent eyesight for spotting animals and was very pleasant company for the stay, even though my English wasn't perfect, making long conversations difficult. As for the person from the Swahili agency, she was incredibly responsive throughout our exchange via WhatsApp and even checked in on us after our arrival in Diani (a trip we booked ourselves). The only point I could mention is perhaps the lack of information about travel times between each location. I miscalculated the driving time, so I slightly regretted only booking one night in Amboseli and, above all, not asking about trains or other information that could have helped organize the rest of our trip. This would have saved us a five-hour drive to catch a flight to Diani. In short, we spent two nights in Maasai (one afternoon and one full day), one night in Naivasha (a quick afternoon in Hellsgate by bike and two hours exploring Naivasha and Crescent Island), and one night in Amboseli (two hours in the late afternoon and two hours in the morning at sunrise). If you're planning this itinerary, it's perfect, but I'd recommend spending two nights in Amboseli.
And if you want to head to the beaches near Diani or Mombasa, definitely consider taking the train! 😂) What's certain is that I highly recommend this agency and the whole team! Thank you to them for everything! 🙏
