Samburu and its sister park, Buffalo Springs, demand patience, skill, and experience to truly reveal their secrets. Our clients, Laura and Virjar, were lucky on their safari here, witnessing an unforgettable sight four cheetahs together, along with the elusive presence of lions roaming freely.

Wildlife viewing in Samburu is not always easy, especially during the heat of the day when many animals retreat into the shade. Yet, there is one place where life never stops: the Ewaso Nyiro River, the heartbeat of Samburu. This vital water source draws elephants, Grevy’s zebras, oryx, and countless other species to its banks.

Samburu rewards those who respect and understand its rugged terrain. It takes an expert guide to navigate this wild landscape, track elusive wildlife, and anticipate the movements of the animals that call it home. At Wilderness Alternative Expedition, our experienced guides will not only show you Samburu they will immerse you in its raw, untamed beauty.

For those seeking an adventure beyond the ordinary, Samburu is waiting.

For far too long, Mount Kenya has stood in the shadow of its taller neighbor, Mount Kilimanjaro. But those who seek a truly unique adventure know that Kenya’s highest peak offers something Kilimanjaro cannot unspoiled beauty, diverse landscapes, and an experience that blends high-altitude trekking with rich cultural and wildlife encounters.

What does happiness look like Summiting Mount Kilimanjaro, fishing on one of the lakes in Mount Kenya, standing atop the summit, looking out at crystal-clear views, or the tired laughs as you shuffle back down to base, full of satisfaction?

Happy moments on an expedition are part of the rollercoaster of emotions that make all your efforts worth it. They are the moments you savor and reminisce about years from now when you are miles away in the familiar comforts of home.

We believe Mount Kenya is a place everyone should experience at least once. And if long treks aren’t your thing, why not explore it on two wheels?

Mount Kenya Cycling trip takes you deep into Mount Kenya National Park, cycling through towering forests, open moorlands, and it rugged alpine landscapes. Cycle up to Lake Ellis (3,455m), a pristine high-altitude lake where the only sounds you’ll hear are the wind and the occasional call of mountain birds. From here, swap the bike for your boots and hike up Ithanguni Hills (3,945m) a lesser-explored gem offering uninterrupted views of the main peaks Batian, Nelion, lenana peak and surrounding valleys

For those who crave adventure but want something different from the usual summit trek, this is it. Cycle hike, and take in Mount Kenya like never before.

More Summit Moments from Mount Meru!

We couldn’t resist we had to share more incredible Mount Meru summit photos sent in by our amazing clients! Wilderness Alternative Expedition is proving to be one of the top mountaineering companies in East Africa, organizing some of the most exciting and high-quality treks across Kenya and Tanzania.

Having teams summit three mountains in just one week is no small feat (we’re starting to think our guides might secretly have mountain goat DNA)😊. But in all seriousness, this reflects the trust our climbers place in us and the dedication of our team to making every trek unforgettable.

Enjoy these extra snapshots of triumph, adventure, and maybe just a little bit of exhaustion at the summit!😅

While Mount Kilimanjaro the highest mountain in Africa gets the bulk of the attention when it comes to climbing in Tanzania, there are other peaks that are worth considering too. Most prominent amongst them is Mount Meru, which is found a short distance to the west of Kilimanjaro and serves as a great warm-up trek for those who have the time and are looking for an even bigger adventure. Mount Meru climbing is very rewarding.
Standing 4565 meters (14,980 feet) in height, Mt. Meru is a more approachable climb than Kilimanjaro and serves as a great stand alone hike in its own right. Many trekkers choose to use Mount Meru as an acclimation hike prior to starting their trek up Africa’s highest peak. Doing so increases their chances of a successful summit on Kilimanjaro and can reduce the number of days needed to climb to the summit at Uhuru Peak.

Visitors to Mount Meru are more likely to spot wildlife along the trail, particularly in the early days of the hike. Often times a ranger will accompany trekking groups on the first day of the journey to ensure they make it safely to the first campsite.

From there, the route wanders up the north side of Meru’s volcanic crater, before approaching the true summit itself. At the top, the views are outstanding, particularly with Kilimanjaro gleaming tantalizingly in the distance.

Typically Mount Meru Climb takes four days, but it can be done in 3 days to complete a trek to the top as even on this lower peak, acclimatization is the key to success. All trekking groups take the same route up the mountain, which begins at Momella Gate.
