Summits Africa

Summits Africa has been running Kilimanjaro Climbs for over 20 years and has earned a reputation for being the industry leader.
Ethics: Guides and porters are your lifeline on the mountain, so we’re wage leaders, even sending a porter liaison member to monitor their rights, food, accommodation and tips.
Safety: always our priority. We always provide Oxygen, an Altitude Sickness Scorecard, even a Portable Altitude Chamber for the routes where you can get stuck, unable to descend.
Training: Our guides have the most ambitious training available, including bi-annual programs (not forgetting chef and porter training!)
Equipment: Our equipment is replaced frequently, and a close eye is kept on every detail, (including critical items like zips) as tents wear quickly at altitude.
Systems: With our systems-based approach and consistency of detail, checklists, routines and briefings keep our team in touch, from trip preparation through to completion, and 24-hour staff monitor every climb.
Levels of Climb: we have 3 different levels of climb, STANDARD, LUXURY AND VIP. This means you can choose the right level of comfort for your clients.
Route Options: we use 6 different routes, so you can choose the route according to fitness levels, budget etc. We focus on reaching the rim at Stella Point, so clients are more likely to summit successfully.
Set Departures: We have a range of set departures which can be sold into on a per person basis with set dates

Savage Wilderness

Savage Wilderness is the leading adventure company in Kenya, offering mountain biking, mountain climbing and white-water rafting, from day activities from Nairobi to week-long adventures.

Savage Wilderness was founded in 1990 by Mark Savage, a bush pilot who saw the rafting potential of the Kenyan rivers he flew over. Adventures on white-water rivers are still a big part of Savage Wilderness’s product, and with our 12 rafts, 24 inflatable canoes and 60 kayaks, we can offer anything from 2 – hour kayaking for beginners, to multi-river expeditions lasting 5 to 50 days, enjoying breathtaking experiences in spectacular scenery, with sightings of Kenya’s incredible wildlife.

With a fleet of over 50 ‘Giant’ mountain bikes and 5 E-bikes, biking packages are also integral to the company. With vehicle support (Land cruisers and motorbikes) and E-bikes for the less fit, cycling can be suitable for all ages and abilities, whether you want gravel riding, mountain biking on Mt Kenya, bike packing or simply enjoying some exercise while game-viewing. 5km cyclists can travel with 50km cyclists and all meet for lunch, and itineraries could be 7 days of cycling or a morning activity from Nairobi. You can combine mountain biking with rafting, kayaking, ziplining, mountaineering, hiking and rock climbing, to tailor-make your adventure itineraries.

For extraordinary adventure, Savage Wilderness can strap your bike to a helicopter, take you up Mt Kenya to cycle down, or off to explore the African wilderness by helicopter, dropping down to bike runs when your guides see suitable terrain. Welcome to heli-biking!

Lake Natron Camp

Possibly the world’s most sustainable eco-camp, Lake Natron Camp is run by local Maasai, and profits go to their village. With 7 luxury tents, the camp nestles between the dramatic volcanoes of the Rift Valley, and the fresh-water streams that run to Lake Natron. These streams create natural, freshwater pools that provide the camp’s swimming opportunities, without impacting the local ecosystem. It is a raw luxury at Natron, where the high temperatures make the natural pools a necessity, and a pleasure to dip into during the day. There is plenty of hiking from camp; the waterfalls prove particularly popular! Viewing flamingos at the lake is unforgettable, and dangerous game avoids this area, creating an oasis of calm after your trek or safari.

Encounters Travel

Encounters Travel offers good value, exciting adventure tours in many of the world’s most exotic destinations. With incredible and unusual itineraries, we combine visiting famous sites with home-stays and meals with local people. Our detailed knowledge means we visit corners of the world unknown by most operators.

Encounters Travel’s Tailor-Made tour itineraries are sure to inspire, whether your interest is the history of the Mogul emperors of India and visiting their sumptuous palaces, or exploring the Buddhist culture and mountain top temples of Bhutan. All our cultural tour itineraries are well balanced and immersive, allowing you to appreciate cultural heritage as well as enjoying some free time. Our local guides are all experts in their countries’ culture and history, and we use many different modes of transport, both public and private. We have a wide range of sample itineraries to choose from, or as a base for you to tailor to your own requirements.

We also provide Charter trips, which are white-labelled tours running under your brand. If you have always wanted to sell group trips but need a reliable partner, Encounters can help you out.

Encounters also offers Family Tours, where we have designed itineraries specifically designed with children in mind. These tours are tailor -made, allowing your guide to be more flexible with your itinerary during the day, and to spend more/less time at certain sites according to the interest and ages of your children. They are also designed to reduce the stress of parents, and make sure everyone has a good time.

Our shoestring group tours explore amazing worldwide destinations at an accessible price. Accommodation levels are often a step lower than our ‘small-group’ tours, maximum group sizes are normally higher, and there may be fewer inclusions in the itinerary.

Our small group tours offer creative and imaginative itineraries for groups of 12 – 20, where you explore a country in-depth, with a group of like-minded travellers.

Kirurumu Under Canvas

Kirurumu Under Canvas offers a complete circuit of tented properties for safaris in Northern Tanzania. We are a leading provider of private mobile luxury camps, and an integral part of our ethos and efforts is working hand in hand with local communities towards sustainable tourism and wilderness preservation.

Our mobile classic-style tented camps follow the annual migration, while our permanent tented lodges are strategically placed to enjoy both wildlife and cultural experiences. Our camps are luxurious but not over the top, allowing us to keep prices reasonable.

We use custom-built 4×4’s, which are replaced on a regular basis, with a mix of open game drive cars for our game packages, based at our mobile camps.

Leonotis Adventures

Leonotis Adventures runs two adventurous treks: The Footsteps of Mankind and The Great Rift Valley Trek, where the incredible, breathtaking vistas from the Ngorongoro Highlands along the Rift Valley down to Lake Natron showcase some of Tanzania’s most spectacular scenery. The changing lives of the local Maasai and their customs collide with the fascinating pre-history of the area, as you search for fossils, cave paintings and footprints of the early hominids who inhabited the area a million years ago, culminating in a visit to the museum at Olduvai Gorge. Our mountain camps host groups of 2 – 18, and we ensure that no trace of your visit is left in this pristine landscape. Tired legs soon arrive at Lake Natron Camp, and exertion is rewarded as you cool off in the natural pools.
