We had the best trekking experience we could’ve asked for. Jimmy, an excellent guide that took us to the summit right on time before sunset. Patrick, the chef, who prepared every delicious meal with such detail that we could feel like we were in s private restaurant. Eric who picked us up and returned to Nairobi treating us with so much care and Geniro, Boris and Douglas who help carrying our tent, sleeping bags, food and so much more, making us feel like 5-hotel stay. Experience itself was 10/10. We enjoyed the most unknown Kenyan landscape: forest, rivers, animals and waterfalls.
The only con I would mention is the high comission that Hyrax Safari applies when paying for the booking. It’s hard to find a way to pay without this high fee. Would be easier if they had other payment methods.

10/10 experience
We went on a 4-day trek, and everything was perfect. Food was delicious, tents were always ready, and the guides were helpful and adjusted the pace accordingly. The price was very affordable. I recommend this agency to anyone planning to climb Mount Kenya.

Perfectly organized 4-d trekking to Mt. Kenya
Hyrax Safaris organized a trek on Mt. Kenya for us. From our very first inquiry, communication with Roselyn was incredibly fast and professional. We had no problems adjusting the itinerary to our needs.
We did a 4-day trek, starting at Sirimon Gate and finishing in Chogoria. Daniel was the leader of the support team — a very experienced guide who did an excellent job selecting the additional guides, chef, porters, and other members of the team.
Everything went perfectly during the trek as well. The food prepared by Patrick was delicious and varied, and the equipment provided (tents, sleeping bags, and mattresses) was of very good quality.
Thanks to such a great team, reaching an altitude of 3,985 meters above sea level was a real pleasure.
Thank you very much, and we highly recommend Hyrax Safaris to anyone visiting Kenya — not only for trekking, but also for safaris.

With a heart full
Our thanks to the entire Hyrax team. Me and my daughter did the 4-day trekking and in the end we considered our family the guide, loader, cook, Mary and the guide. Besides all the rewarding experience of climbing the Lenana Point, this team made everything much better by helping us. Our hearts are filled with happiness.

Experienced guides
First of all the job at the office was great, always answering all my questions and doubts, ready to fulfill my requests. Than the adventure begins and let me tell you, Daniel was our main guide and he was amazing, like all the troupe, second guide, porters and chef. There are no words to describe their love for the mountain, their knowledge of the filed and animals, their patience and support with us, always ready to help us in every way possible.. it’s not easy but they made easier for sure!

Mount Kenya Summit
My climb of Mount Kenya with Hyrax Safaris went very well.
Communication before the trip was smooth and everything worked as agreed. Our guide Kelvn managed the schedule carefully and made sure we acclimatized properly. We reached Point Lenana at sunrise as planned.
The arrangements, food, and logistics worked throughout the trek. I felt safe and well supported, and the trip matched what was promised. I would recommend Hyrax Safaris for a Mount Kenya climb.

We went on a 7-day trip with Hirax Safari, starting with a trekking adventure on Mt. Kenya followed by visits to three amazing safari parks. Everything was absolutely fantastic – very well organized, professional, and with a warm, friendly atmosphere.
