Mountains Warriors are all you need for that safari trip
Our safari trip was an experience of a lifetime. Ruth was such a star in organising our flights, accommodation, and transportation. She was able to sort out new flights when one of the flights back was cancelled. Ruth was responsive to all of our queries even at 5am. I can’t imagine organising a safari trip without Ruth or Mountain Warriors. Every detail was thought through, leaving us stress-free and able to enjoy the journey to the fullest.
Our safari guide, Simon, made our trip in the Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater an unforgettable experience. He had a breadth of knowledge on the animals in the area and through him we were able to see four out of the big five, including the rare Rhinos in the Ngorongoro Crater. His positive, smiling, and funny attitude made the long drives very fun. He was able to spot animals we would have otherwise missed and kept us informed sharing fascinating details about them.
Mountain Warriors exceeded all our expectations. If you’re looking for a company that combines professionalism, expertise, and a personal touch, look no further. This was a trip of a lifetime, and it wouldn’t have been the same without them. Thank you, Mountain Warriors!

A once in a life trip. It was made by the team and Robert as our lead guide.
One of the best experiences of my life.
I did the 8 day Lemosho route with Almighty Kilimanjaro. They were well organised from the start and I felt very safe in their hands throughout the trip.
Our lead guide Robert, and his team, made the trip for us. I highly recommended asking for Robert. His knowledge of the mountain is unmatched and it meant that we benefitted from incredible views / moments that others did not due to his understanding of the weather patterns.
I went solo (I’m 35) and joined two others (45) to make a group of 3. That was perfect for what I wanted, it had a more relaxed vibe and we were able to set a great pace throughout the trip. It also meant that we felt strong for the summit day and had acclimatised well.
Led by Robert and Liberat, we were able to time the summit push to perfection, getting to the top for sunrise.
It was an experience like none other 🌅
Other points to note, the food was great considering, you can borrow anything you need from the team and everyone from the porters to the cook made an effort to make us feel welcome. I could not recommend this team more!!
Pole Pole!
P.S. ask Robert about how he took Cheryl Cole and Garry Barlow and the comic relief team up Kili

stunning landscapes, exceptional guides, and seamless organization
The trip is amazing! Albert and Chesi are helpful. Our guide Albert took us to see many kinds of wild animals including lions, elephants, cheetahs, hippos, giraffes, etc. He also introduced the habits and characteristics of these animals to us so that we could understand them better. The itinerary was well arranged and we had plenty of rest time and viewing time. Thank you very much. Albert is also an excellent driver. Although the traffic is complicated and changeable, he can deal with it skillfully and avoid the potholes on the road. Thanks to our travel planner Chesi for providing us with a perfect itinerary and her suggestions are very pertinent.

6 Days Budget Safari felt quite luxurious with very rich experiences.
What they promised, they delivered. From the time we got picked up to drop off after 6 days.
We saw all Big Five (but that’s by luck) and many more animals that wowed us throughout our tour. Lodges and campsites were adequate to say the list and our guide/driver Simon took care of us every step of the way. It was his knowledge and experience that gave us opportunity to see so many amazing animals and experience the time of our lives. My buddy and I could not be happier with this amazing tour.
Highly recommend.

Safari Talk Tours provided an incredible safari with top-notch service and unforgettable moments!
In early 2020, just before the pandemic hit, we visited Kenya and were fortunate enough to meet Dan, our guide. We immediately had a fantastic experience with him. Dan is a genuinely kind person, with an impressive knowledge of the country and its wildlife, something that really stood out to us. Every year since, he’s sent us a “Happy New Year” message, which kept him in our thoughts. So, last year, when we decided to return to Kenya in October 2024, we knew we had to go with Dan again.
Four years later, this time with our two kids, ages 8 and 3, Dan was still as amazing as we remembered. He even arranged a car seat for our youngest how thoughtful is that? We also invited my Parents-laws along, who had never traveled beyond France before (which isn’t a bad thing, of course!), but they were absolutely blown away by the experience. My father-in-law hit it off with Dan right away, and we all had such a great time together.
Dan went above and beyond to make sure we saw the best wildlife. It often felt like we were the only ones in the park because Dan had a knack for avoiding the crowds. At one point, we were surrounded by a herd of elephants, including a baby, with a lion on the other side just us, no other cars around! We even spotted a cheetah with four adorable cubs! I have amazing photos from my phone, but the cheetah pictures were taken with our camera, as I couldn't upload them directly from my phone.
I want to give a huge thank you to Dan for his outstanding hospitality. He personally picks you up at Nairobi Airport, holding a sign with your name, which is such a nice touch! After the safari, he also arranged to pick us up from Diani Beach and took us to the train station for our return to Nairobi. His friendly nature and willingness to help made our experience even better!
If you're planning a trip to Kenya and want an incredible experience with top-notch accommodations (with pools, of course!), I can’t recommend Safari Talk enough. Dan truly made our safari unforgettable!
Who knows, perhaps we’ll make it a 4-year tradition! In four years, Dan might even meet my parents, and my daughter will be 7 and my son will be 13. What an adventure that could be!

Excellent choice of company to guide you up Kilimanjaro
I finished the 8-day Lemosho route yesterday. What an experience! I booked with Almighty Kilimanjaro, who were an excellent choice indeed. Unfortunately three of the people expected to come on the trip were unable to, so we had the luxury of it being three of us - me and my friend, and another guy who had booked on his own. We very quickly made lifelong friendships as we battled through the hiking!
Robert, Liberat (and trainee Colin) were extremely knowledgeable about the route, the flora and fauna, the mountain, the history and the risks of climbing the tallest point in Africa. Their many combined years of experience as porters and then guides on Kilimanjaro was obvious.
The porters were absolutely amazing. Every time we left a camp we would see them speeding past us half way through the day, readying the next camp and preparing for our arrival. When we got there we were always welcomed with smiles and congratulations, a drink and a sit down. We were ‘upsold’ a portable toilet which, quite frankly, was money extremely well spent, with the public ‘long drops’ becoming more disgusting the higher up the mountain we went!!!
Food was amazing. I don’t know how Chef Emil did it (he’s been doing it for 30 years!), but every meal was tasty, nutritious and set us up for the next hike.
The first 6 days were hard, but manageable. The team ensured we got out of camp early so we got the best of the weather - often the mountain clouded over at 10am and rained at 1pm, but we were always at the best place at the right time - and safely in our tents when the deluge started!!!
Hike from base camp to the top was the toughest thing I have ever done. 6 hours of almost non-stop trudging up at steep incline, but with nutritionally rich food in our bellies and guides encouraging us to push ourselves to our limits (but no further) all three of us made it to the top and I will forever be grateful for their support, guidance and encouragement.
Off the mountain: transfers to and from the airport were seamless, the hotel we stayed in was great and the team were even able to rapidly sort out our missing bags (they didn’t make our flight but arrived at JRO about 6 hours later!).
All in all, I am really pleased that we chose Almighty Kilimanjaro and I would recommend them to anyone who was thinking about this trip.
