4 Days Mt Kenya Climb, Chogoria Route up and out Sirimon route

The coach Mr James was so patient with me especially being a special person with a history of cancer. I'm a survivor of cervical cancer and Yes,I made it to the summit. Not once but twice. And to Kili in Tanzania too.

I would very much recommend Arch Treks & Safaris as a tour operator for the Mount Kenya hike. We did a 4-day hike (Chogoria up Sirimon down) which was organized perfectly. The communication and information up front, both on their website and from the owner James, was very clear and extensive. Our guide Samson was extremely knowledgeable, cared for us constantly and explained the day to day program well. Chef Charles spoiled us with tasty, nutritious and more than plenty of food. Moses and George were there to back us up and assist us in every way. The organization has many many years of experience which comes to expression in the way our hike was arranged. Simply a top notch service from Arch.

We had the most amazing 4-day trek to the top of Mt. Kenya with James and his team. The guides, porters, and cook who took us up and down the mountain were phenomenal, making it as comfortable for us as possible and providing tips and guidance along the way. I personally was very impacted by altitude sickness and our main guide attended to me, making sure I was okay, encouraging me, and changing our route slightly so I could get to lower altitude faster. He was monitoring me to make sure I was okay to get to the top, and at the end was with me every step of the way to ensure I could make it. James is one of the most patient, understanding, and personable people I've ever met. He went above and beyond to help transport some other family members on our way to the mountain by renting an bigger van for us. He also went out of his way to make sure we could drop our bags with family members in another town. And when we finished our trek he called his contacts and drove to multiple towns to help us find a covid test because my husband had a cough, offered to go to a supermarket to get supplies before the next leg of our trip, and bore with is when we changed our minds several times about where to be dropped off -- even helping to jumpstart someone's car along the way! Cannot thank you enough, James + Archtrek!
