  • 5 Days Climbing Mount Kenya Expedition Sirimon -Chongoria reviewer 1
    · March 23rd, 2025
    Incredible 5-day expedition to Mount Kenya. Our expedition to Mount Kenya in December was an unforgettable experience! As soon as we reached Nanyuki from Nairobi, we started getting attracted by the beauty of the mountains. As we passed through the Sariman Gate, we saw a variety of wildlife on the mountain path, especially the silence of the dense forest, and the view of the illuminated water body was great. Although the trekking route is quite challenging, every step seems easy with the help of experienced guides. Amazing views from the top of the mountain! While descending on the Chogoria route, the waterfalls, forest land, and charming nature became more attractive. The management of Bencia Africa Adventures and Safaris was excellent. They have given importance to our comfort and safety. The food, the tent, and everything else was handled excellently. For those who want to experience the thrilling trekking of Mount Kenya, this is undoubtedly a great package!

    We chose a mid-range lodge safari, and it was worth every penny! Timothy, our guide, ensured we didn’t miss any wildlife moments, from the elegant Rothschild’s giraffes in Lake Nakuru to the herds of elephants in Amboseli. The scenery of Mount Kilimanjaro in the background was magical. Bencia Africa Adventure & Safaris made the entire process seamless, and their 20+ years of experience truly shone through.

    Staying at Serena Mountain Lodge was a highlight of our safari. The forest sounds at night and the illuminated waterhole provided unforgettable wildlife moments. Bencia Africa Adventure ensured everything was smooth and enjoyable.
