This was an amazing experience. The views were beautiful and so much more than I expected. Tim was fantastic. He is a total pro and helped make this an unforgettable day.
Hi..Kerasdad were delighted to have your review, we appreciate guides recommendation and grateful you booked with us.
First hike on Longonut.. exhilarating experience. Our tour guide Mwose was very knowledgeable and patient with us as we navigated the hills. Definitely would recommend this tour if you want to experience a hike. I was so happy when i made it to the top 😊
We appreciate having your feedback review, many thanks for recommending guide Mwose. We’re greatful
This hike was moderately strenuous, but it was beautiful! Our guide was wonderful. I highly recommend taking this hike
We’re greatful sir, for sharing the feedback review of the tour. We appreciate your booking with us.
Mwose was a life saver for bringing me to Mt. Longonot last minute due to a change with my original tour operator, and I am glad I got him! He was friendly and smiling from the second I got in the car and made sure I had everything I needed on the hike. I had a great day hiking with Mwose and especially appreciated him stepping in last minute!
We appreciate sharing your hiking tour review, many thanks indeed for recommending guide Mwose.
My experience was excellent. Moses, our driver and guide was very knowledgeable and professional. The hike was a bit harder than I expected with some steep hills, but still loved it. Totally recommend doing. 10/10, wouldn’t change anything about the experience. Total time almost 5 hours.
We're truly delighted to have your feedback review of our tour guide Moses on this tour, glad you liked it. Many thanks for booking with us
The volcano was amazing. The hike could be a little challenging at parts, but if you’re in okay shape you should be totally fine to complete it. It’s definitely worth checking out if you’re in Kenya. Our guide Moses was super nice and made the experience smooth.
We greatly appreciate the wonderful review about the tour its our delight to great tours, many thanks for the review.
Moses was super chill. Made the hike an enjoyable experience! Mt Longonot is definitely worth checking out if you’re visiting Kenya.
We're very greatful to have such a wonderful review. Many thanks for the opportunity to offer the tours.
We thoroughly enjoyed our hike to Mount Longonot with our super driver and guide Moses. It wasn’t the best day as there was a lot of cloud but the walk itself was a lot more pleasant as it wasn’t so hot. Parts of the walk were fairly tough but our guide Moses helped us complete no bother. Well worth having a driver and guide than doing it on your own.
We are so glad you enjoyed the tour and had a wonderful time. We truly appreciate your review. Many thanks
Choose your own pace and then trail option once you’ve arrived at the rim. 6 hrs estimated for hikers in excellent shape; be aware of Nairobi’s traffic delays.
Monica we appreciate your honest review and glad you enjoyed it. Many thanks.
Very good experience. The guide picked me up from my hotel around 6am. After 2 hours drive we arrived on site. Hiking is not very long in itself (less than 1h and 2h depending on your pace) but it goes up very quickly! You better have good hiking shoes. The view is very beautiful from above, we have a wonderful view of Lake Naivasha too. It is worth the visit and the guide is very friendly! Well on the other hand, there was not really "bird watching".
Hi.. Daline we truly appreciate the review, we are glad you enjoyed the tour.
