Memorable expedition
I recently had an opportunity to work with Arch Treks on a 5 days expedition to Mount Kenya. The logistics were systemic and the team was accomodating. The guide and chef did an incredible job and were well informed on their field of work. I highly recommend Arch Treks and safaris

Mt Kenya - Chogoria Route
We recently climbed and summited Mt Kenya with William and his team. Our guide, David, was excellent as were the chefs John and George, and the porters. If you want a great hike on an amazingly beautiful route, then get hold of and book William! His WhatsApp number: +254720462650.

Great Company! Terrific Support Team!
Great company! James the owner knew exactly what route for me to take based on experience. My support team of 4 was fantastic. My guide, Richard told me he'd get me to the peak and down safely, and he did...he also knew every plant and animal species I asked about. The chef was incredible...vegetarian food was great and my porters were so happy to help me succeed. I wouldn't hesitate to use them in the future...and I will!

Beautiful experience!
My husband and I are experienced hikers but we were concerned about how the altitude would affect us because of our age and our home altitude (Florida). It was a challenging hike but we had a wonderful experience. Our main guide, George, patiently paced our steps to minimize our chances of getting altitude sickness (we did take meds). With his help and the support of the assistant guide, two porters and a marvelous chef we made it to point Lenana! We felt pampered and safe by Arch Safaris.
Response from the operator: Thank you very Much for the wonderful review, It was a great honor having you and your Husband choose our company to take you up Mt. Kenya.. Congratulations Once again for making it up the Summit of the 2nd Highest Mountain in Africa..

5 Days Mt. Kenya Sirimon route out Chogoria Route with Peak Circuit: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Nairobi.
How much does 5 Days Mt. Kenya Sirimon route out Chogoria Route with Peak Circuit cost?
+
Prices start at $960 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Nairobi usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does 5 Days Mt. Kenya Sirimon route out Chogoria Route with Peak Circuit take?
+
Plan for about 120 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Nairobi is not rushed.
Is 5 Days Mt. Kenya Sirimon route out Chogoria Route with Peak Circuit worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 67 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 6 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Nairobi, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule 5 Days Mt. Kenya Sirimon route out Chogoria Route with Peak Circuit?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is 5 Days Mt. Kenya Sirimon route out Chogoria Route with Peak Circuit suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 120-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book 5 Days Mt. Kenya Sirimon route out Chogoria Route with Peak Circuit?
+
Around 2 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Nairobi can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Nairobi and add a light layer if any part of the 120-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does 5 Days Mt. Kenya Sirimon route out Chogoria Route with Peak Circuit start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Nairobi within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Nairobi?
+
On Outty we rank every Nairobi experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Wild 5-Day Safari: Magical Mara, Nakuru Wonders & Hell's Gate, 2 Days Amboseli Safari using a 4x4 Landcruiser jeep(with options), Kibera Slum Tour with Lucas. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Nairobi?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Nairobi?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
