Hello,
I’d recommend them

What an amazing experience climbing Mt. Kenya. I’m not an experienced climber, but Julius and their team from African Habitat Explorer were especially awesome, and I felt so safe climbing with them!
Julius is an amazing leader with great people skills and checked-in with us regularly throughout the climb. I was particularly impressed by how well they understood the weather as it changed throughout the day
We were given thorough and clear instructions and safety on the climb was their paramount concern. Mt Kenya is a great climb for those of all skill levels, and I took great comfort knowing that we were in good hands with African Habitat Explorer.
I would not hesitate in using them again as they were very knowledgeable, professional and super friendly and made us feel we were in secure hands.

Climbing with experts is what made a climb enjoyable!!
Julius and his team were attentive to all our inquires and requirements. On our first night in Kenya, they went through a gear check for each climber making sure we all have what we needed to have a comfortable climb. They were even able to rent few items to though who needed them.
Their skillfulness and their presence made the difference and helped us to get to the summit. They were with us every step of the way and held our hands when we needed them especially coming down as maneuvering around rocks coming down and being tired is not a joke.
I am grateful for the experience and I would not have done it without their support.
I highly recommend them as they totally understand the type of climbers they are dealing with and they will always go out of their way to help, assist and answer and questions.
Julius made sure that he does a morning check with everyone to make sure we health condition is stable and we can move to the next level. I appreciate his attention to every single person and their ability to cater to our needs.
I highly recommend them for those who are looking for a pleasant climb and good conversations.

I had the most extraordinary and unforgettable experience with Julius and African Habitat Explorer during our Mount Kenya expedition via the Chogoria route. From the moment we met Julius, his warmth and passion for hiking and mountain climbing were evident. He radiated a genuine enthusiasm that spread through our group of 44 hikers, making us all excited for the adventure ahead.
Julius’s knowledge and keen observation skills were truly impressive. He not only knew the route like the back of his hand but also attentively paid attention to each individual’s well-being and the dynamics within the group. This personal touch made the journey feel safe, comfortable and allowed us to focus on enjoying the breathtaking scenery.
High altitudes can present significant challenges, but Julius’s positive attitude and compassionate nature made all the difference. He managed to turn even the most difficult moments into enjoyable ones, fostering an atmosphere of camaraderie and encouragement among us.
What set Julius and his team apart was their incredible energy and the genuine laughter that echoed throughout the journey. Their services were top-notch, and they ensured that our needs were met with efficiency and care.
Having climbed Mount Kenya multiple times with other companies, I can confidently say that meeting Julius was a game-changer. His infectious passion for adventure and exploration inspired me to embark on additional trips, including Mount Kilimanjaro as a solo hiker and as part of a diverse group of over 30 students. With Julius and African Habitat Explorer, every expedition is an extraordinary and life-enriching experience. I wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone seeking an unforgettable adventure in the breathtaking landscapes of Africa.
