We all had a fantastic time and everyone made it to the top thanks to Cyrus!! I think we were completely blessed with the weather as we missed most of the rain and had a really clear day at the top! Mount Kenya is truly stunning.
I want to say a big thank you to you, Kelly, Cyrus and the wider team. Everyone has been so friendly and helpful. We have been really impressed, and so much so that we are planning to do it all over again next year!

Firstly I would like to say a huge thank you for helping to organise a fantastic trip to Mount Kenya! It really was an unforgettable trip and we all hugely enjoyed it!

The organisation of the whole trip was faultless and I was so impressed with everyone I have met here from AA. Cyrus was fantastic and we couldn't have asked for a better guide, along with the brilliant team of porters, not forgetting the fantastic cook. He fed us very very well!

Just wanted to email to say thank you to AA for a fantastic trip up Mount Kenya. Rob and I felt very well taken care of by all the Kenya staff from the moment we arrived.

The mountain was a real experience and Cyrus and our porters were simply marvellous. The summit was unbelievable, absolutely stunning views. A particular mention for Kamau who drove us everywhere: he was a great driver and such a lovely guy. We spent our last meal at carnivore which was an experience and asked Kelly and Kamau to join us and couldn't have ended our trip in a nicer way. Kelly's life story was simply an inspiration!

I went into this trip with an open mind and I was just blown away. The level of professionalism displayed by the staff was amazing, the area of the country I was taken through was unparalleled in its beauty, and the food and culture and warmth of the people I met gave me a good learning experience about Kenya. It was the best trip of my life! For me the highlight had to be Mount Kenya, we had the mountain to ourselves, sharing it only with the wildlife, just incredible

Review by Africamp client

....the slog up the vertical bog tested many people’s resolve. But again, we all got through. As I slogged up I often asked myself “what am I doing this for ?” But once I reached Shiptons Camp and I got my strength back, I knew why.

Boy, what a climb in the dark ! Every one panted and cursed on the way up. “Is there no end to this climb ?” But the joy and euphoria on reaching the summit was unbounded. There was personal pride at having overcome adversity, but also a strengthened team spirit at having done it all together. We must all be stronger for having done this.
