The Adventure Alternative Kenya team
Our team of local staff are here to make your trip the best possible one. They all have extensive knowledge of organising and guiding outdoor trips in East Africa. Through regular training and first aid courses, we ensure that your trip is safe and successful.
Because of our close partnership with Moving Mountains Kenya, a number of our staff are also involved in the work of the charity. This gives a holistic experience for anyone looking to visit or volunteer at the community projects we support.
