MORE THAN A GAME DRIVE
Beyond the Safari
Kenya is more than the Big Five. Hike volcanic craters, ride through open savannah, float down remote rivers, and track wildlife on foot.
Hiking
Hike Mt Kenya
Conquer Africa's second-highest peak
Mt Kenya is one of Africa’s great trekking destinations — a dramatic volcanic massif rising to 5,199m. Choose from multiple routes including the Sirimon-Chogoria traverse, with each day revealing new altitude zones from bamboo forest to glacial moorland. A bucket-list adventure with spectacular views across the Rift Valley.
- Multiple routes available (2–5 days)
- Sirimon, Chogoria & Naro Moru routes
- Experienced mountain guides
- All gear and permits arranged
Adventure
River Tubing & Camping, Magadi
Float the Ewaso Kedong under African skies
An adventure like no other — tubing down the river through the remote Rift Valley landscape around Lake Magadi, then making camp under the stars. This wild, off-the-beaten-track experience combines adrenaline with the raw beauty of Kenya’s soda lake country. Perfect for those wanting something completely different.
- Half-day or full-day tubing
- Overnight bush camping
- Remote Rift Valley scenery
- Small group only
Hiking
Aberdare Ranges & Mt Longonot
Crater hikes and montane forest exploration
Hike the rim of Mt Longonot’s dramatic volcanic crater — a rewarding 2–3 hour ascent with sweeping Rift Valley views. Combine with a trek into the Aberdare ranges, where dense equatorial forest shelters elephant, buffalo and giant forest hog. Two contrasting hikes that reveal a completely different face of Kenya.
- Mt Longonot crater rim hike (2–3 hrs)
- Aberdare forest day walks
- Expert naturalist guides
- Accessible from Nairobi
