Incredible Mount Kilimanjaro Experience with Kentau Safaris
I recently (November 2004) had the privilege of climbing Mount Kilimanjaro with Kentau Safaris, and the experience was nothing short of amazing! From start to finish, their professionalism, organization, and attention to detail made this challenging adventure truly unforgettable.
John, the guide were incredibly knowledgeable and supportive, ensuring that I felt safe, comfortable, and motivated throughout the trek. His insights into the mountain’s history, terrain, and local culture added a unique and enriching dimension to the journey.
The porters and cooks deserve special recognition for their hard work and hospitality. The meals were delicious, varied, and exactly what I needed to keep my energy up—truly impressive considering the conditions on the mountain!
Kentau Safaris also provided excellent equipment, ensuring that I was well-prepared for all weather conditions. Their commitment to safety and eco-friendly practices was evident every step of the way.
Reaching the summit was a dream come true, and I couldn’t have done it without the amazing team at Kentau Safaris. If you’re planning a Kilimanjaro climb, I wholeheartedly recommend choosing Kentau Safaris—they’ll exceed your expectations and make your adventure truly unforgettable!
Thank you, Kentau Safaris, for an incredible experience. I’ll treasure the memories forever!

Exceptional service and unforgettable experience
Kentau Safaris and Dominic couldn't have been better. From first contact to when I left Kenya, the service was amazing. Extremely well organised, friendly staff/guides and arranged transport was as good as it gets, and the safari itself was fantastic. Dominic was always on hand to help or answer questions. Couldn't recommend highly enough!

make every moment unique
I contacted Dominic after reading reviews about the Kentau Safari on the Safari Reviews website. Having to take a couple of friends to discover Kenya, a country I have been visiting since I was a child, he was very willing to build a tailor-made itinerary in different parks of the country and the experience was amazing.
With the driver we always felt very safe, his great experience is evident, so much so that we stopped to help other jeeps that had got stuck in the mud, which made the safari more fun.
We enjoyed all the views, so diverse and incredible, we saw so many animals, way beyond the big five!!!
I can't wait to visit the parks that I still miss.
Honestly one of the absolute best tours organised, everything was just perfect!
Communication : 11/10
Service : 10/10
Value for money : August is a comparatively expensive month in general due to Migration season, but Dominic helped us get the best deals possible in the peak season.

Mount Kenya trekking was a blast
We hiked the Mount Kenya with Kentau Safaris and were absolutely satisfied with the organization and execution. The manager Dominic Mwata was very responsive, competent and helpful in answering all our questions upfront and organized a powerful and experienced team that made the trip were convenient and an unforgettable breathtaking event. I can highly recommend this small and growing outdoor company and we already explored future trips with Dominic. Thumbs up!
Efficient and very professional
Kentau turned out from the first moment to be a great choice that indulged us in all our needs with excellent value for money. Thanks to Dominic who organized everything and to our guide David from Amboseli who with his 30 years of experience passed on his passion and knowledge for animals.
Super recommended agency

Dedication for customer satisfaction (instead of just selling as much as possible)
Great support in planning our trip to Kenya. Dominic has spent ample of time advising on travel choices - even on activities that I could not have booked through him. What I booked through Dominic was delivered with great care and reliability - everything worked out as agreed and he stayed in regular contact to check on any needs, whether everything was to our liking, etc. Clear recommendation!

My Best Trip Ever
Scaling Mount Kenya with Kentau Safaris was an unforgettable adventure! Their experienced guides led the way with incredible knowledge and passion, making every step a journey of discovery. The breathtaking scenery was just the beginning - from delicious meals under the stars to conquering the peak, the entire trip was expertly planned and executed. Thanks, Kentau Safaris, for an epic African expedition!
Well Organized
I have just finished my 5-day Mt Kenya hike and I must say it was a very rewarding experience. I got a very great team, the guide, Eddy was very experienced and made everything seem easy. The whole climbing crew was amazing and I am grateful they made the experience worth it. I would recommend Kentau to other hikers.
