I did this as my first day in Nairobi. It was wonderful! Jimmy was an excellent driver, arrived on time and had some great insight to Kenya. Felt very safe with him. The hike is great, really enjoyed it and felt super safe as a solo female traveler throughout the day. There ended up being two others on my tour which was great. Would definitely recommend to anyone traveling in the area!! Both the hike and lake were amazing and super fun.
I had a wonderful experience visiting Longonot Crater with Excellent Game Spotting Adventure. The entire trip was well organized and truly memorable. A special thank you to my guide, Jimmy, and our wonderful driver. They were both incredibly friendly, professional, and knowledgeable, making the journey enjoyable from start to finish. Jimmy shared fascinating information about the area, wildlife, and local history, which made the experience even more meaningful. The scenery around Longonot Crater was absolutely breathtaking, with stunning views that made every step worthwhile. Their enthusiasm, expertise, and warm hospitality ensured that everyone felt comfortable and engaged throughout the trip. Thank you, Excellent Game Spotting Adventure, for an unforgettable adventure. I highly recommend your services to anyone looking for a well-guided and enjoyable outdoor experience.
Thank you so much for the incredible review. We are so glad you enjoyed the breathtaking views of Longonot Crater. Mr Jimmy and our driver are absolute rockstars, and we’ll make sure they see your wonderful feedback. Thank you for choosing Excellent Game Spotting Adventure and for recommending us to fellow travelers. Asante sana and see you next time. Cheers!
It was an amazing experience. The guide Dominic was super sweet and i could hike on my own pace. Usually the hike is done in 5 hours but i could take as long as i wanted
Helllo, Thank you for sharing your experience! We're so glad you enjoyed the hike and could take it completely at your own pace. Dominic is wonderful at customizing the journey for our guests, and we’ll definitely share your compliments with him. We hope to see you again soon, cheers!
Good hiking experience. Jimmy is professional and he provided good service. Overall, it's a nice trip in Nairobi.
I had a great day with Mr. Paul at the Mount Longonot and the lake Naivasha. The organization went smoothly and Paul was very punctual and knowledgeable about the places we were passing. I had a local guide to hike up Longonot and would not have made it without his help. Going down is pretty challenging and make sure to carry enough water (I had just over one little - not enough). The lake itself was a relaxing experience even though I am not a fan of animals in general. Highly recommend if you like the outdoors and nature!
Thank you so much for your kind words! We are thrilled to hear that you had a smooth and successful day at Mount Longonot and Lake Naivasha. It is wonderful to know that Paul’s punctuality and knowledge added to your experience. I will be sure to share your feedback with him! We’re also very glad our local guide was there to support you on the hike—that descent can certainly be tricky, and reaching the top is a great accomplishment. We also appreciate the tip about the water! We will make sure to emphasize that to our future hikers so they stay well-hydrated. Even though you aren't a big fan of animals, we're so glad the lake provided a relaxing end to your adventurous day. We hope to see you again soon!
Excellent experience with Mr Jimmy. We had an amazing drive to and from Mount Longonot. Very amenable to our needs as a family and a great source of conversation. We hiked to the crater summit as a foursome with his colleague, and then my son and I walked the whole loop to get to the peak. WOW! For reference my son is 10 and he handled it very well with the excellence of our guide, who took my son’s pace and remained encouraging throughout. We were tired at the end of that to attempt the Lake trip so headed back to the hotel. This trip was so easy with pickup and dropoff - I’d highly recommend. So thankful for this incredible experience with many thanks again to our wonderful guides.
Hello, What an incredible achievement for your family! Thank you for the kind words about Mr. Jimmy and the team. We are so proud of your son for handling the crater loop so well—he’s a natural hiker! We’re glad we could make the logistics easy for you, and we’d love to host your family again for more adventure. Cheers!
Perfect day from start to finish. A great driver , Jimmy is really top , punctual and kind. The hike was just beautiful, a little rough but to do. The boat ride was top especially after the hike. We have seen many animals. And especially a lot of hippo
The day started great with a great driver on time and with a big smile on our arrival. We had a great guide to Mount Longonot, Joshua was very patient , kind to us. Our driver Jimmy is an exceptional person, we spent a pleasant time with him. Do not hesitate to go to Lake Naivasha, it was also great , and especially relaxing after the trekking which was exhausted but it is worth the visit . For Mont Longonot water bottles are forbidden, bags are searched so do not forget your bottles Thank you for everything.
Professional and well informed Guides made the trip easy, would definitely recommend to friends who want to visit kenya soon.
Hello, Thank you so much for the fantastic feedback! We are thrilled to hear that our guides made your trip easy and that you would recommend us. We look forward to welcoming any of your friends to Kenya soon!
I had an unforgettable hiking experience with Mr. Jimmy and Mr. Domenic. Climbing to the crater was slightly tough, but the views from the top made it worth the effort. On our way up we saw many wild animals like zebras, gazelles, and wild birds. Mr. Davide, the boat navigator at Lake Naivasha, was amazing; he turned the boat ride into an amazing one.
Wow! that sounds absolutely incredible. What a great experience. The views from the crater and seeing all that wildlife must have been breathtaking. Big shoutout to Mr. Jimmy and Mr. Domenic for getting you up there! And how cool was Mr Davide. Sounds like he made the Lake Naivasha ride extra special.We hope to hear from you again!
