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.
loved it
Jones was really helpful and flexible in adapting the safari with my needs. the safari was great...amazing experience..I would suggest
Wonderful experience with ArchTrek
Our experience with James and his company was great! James was very responsive to my emails and helpful as we were preparing to leave. He even picked us up at the airport very early in the morning to accommodate our schedule. We did the 6 day Chogoria route up Mount Kenya and it was beyond our expectations- the staff (porters, guide, chef) were very capable and friendly and the trek was very comfortable and memorable. I would recommend James for hiking Mount Kenya or any other safari tour in Kenya!

Awesome Arch Treks
Honeymoon trip to Kenya with Arch Treks,
5 days safari in 3 different national parks Masai Mara, Nakuru, Aberdere - very well organised, save and friendly, professional driver, nice lodges.
7 days Mount Kenya with excellent crew - very nice guide who knew all the different plants on the mountain, very friendly porters, great cook who served us with delicious meals even at 4200m altitude.
If you want to go to Kenya for safari and trekking we can only recommend Arch Trek.

Masai Mara during the migration!
This is our third trip with Arch Treks and Safaris. James always goes out of his way to plan your perfect itinerary, and to find something that works in your budget. My travel dates changed a few times because of work, but James was easy to worked with via email and the payments were easily handled by wire. He also worked with one of my friends to plan a future trip up Kilimanjaro.
Our guide Charles worked very hard to fill our days with fun game drives, and to get off the beaten path to see the vast Mara. He patiently waited for elephants to walk across the road and to watch lions napping to give us some magical moments with wildlife without all the tour operators. He also kept us laughing on our long drives and looked out for our every need.
When we needed help to cross to Uganda overland, James arranged for all our ground travel plans — so they can help with all sorts of travel requests.
You can trust Arch Trek to show you an amazing time in beautiful Kenya. We absolutely loved all of the properties they booked, and the trips we've taken with them. Highly recommend.

We felt cared for and encouraged. The team catered for an unwell member as well as supporting us too
The whole team contributed to the realisation of our dream to reach Point Lenana on Mount Kenya. One member of our 10 person team had a chest infection and was struggling. The way the team responded to this was inspiring and all os our family team made it to the summit. That said, the guides are very experienced and put your safety first at all times. A particular bonus for me was the outstanding cuisine! I will never forget the sunrise over Point Lenana. Thank you James and the whole team!

Exceeded my expectations exponentially!
Communications: James always responded to my pre-trip questions within a couple days.
Tour: Robin was a fantastic guide. He grew up close to the animals, so he was always able to answer our questions. He also knew the parks intimately, and so we were blessed to see the 'Big 5' with the first 24 hours of our drives. The resorts we stayed at were very modern and comfortable, and the food was so terrific that I gained a few pounds, even though I had been told not to eat any raw fruits or vegetables or drink anything unless it was in a sealed container which I personally opened.
I was actually not looking forward to this trip, as 'African Safari' would never have been on my bucket list, so I was pleasantly surprised at how much I enjoyed the experience. The parks, animals, scenery, lodgings, food, and people were exceptional.

Safe and well taken care of. Very Basic but wonderful
Sweet, calm and caring. It’s fisically very challenging and nothing fancy. You have to be determined and fit but wow what a nice experience
