Kenya
Mount Kenya
Six approaches—three principal gates and three specialist routes—three summit objectives and a deeply experienced Kenyan mountain team. Discover the right way to trek or climb Mount Kenya.
Kenya · Tanzania · Uganda
Kenya, Tanzania and Uganda each need a different plan.
Kenya can connect mountains, safari and coast. Tanzania changes with the northern circuit, Kilimanjaro and the season. Uganda asks you to plan around forests, primates, the Nile and the Rwenzori. Start with the country, then compare the regions that give it its character.

Tanzania
Mount Kilimanjaro
Compare all seven Mount Kilimanjaro routes, understand acclimatisation and summit logistics, and plan a properly paced climb with WAE’s Moshi-based team.
Uganda
Bwindi Impenetrable National Park
A field-led guide to Bwindi’s four sectors, ancient montane forest, gorilla tracking, birding and the practical choices that shape a well-planned stay.
Uganda
Rwenzori Mountains
Plan a serious Rwenzori expedition: compare Central Circuit and Kilembe, understand Margherita’s technical summit, and prepare for altitude, bog and equatorial mountain weather.
Uganda
Kibale Forest National Park
Chimpanzee tracking, primate-rich forest, birding and crater-lake country in western Uganda, planned with enough time for the forest rather than a rushed stop.
Kenya
Northern Kenya
An expedition through Kenya's arid north: community rangelands, forested mountains, salt flats and Lake Turkana, planned around distance, water and local knowledge.

Mahale Mountains & Lake Tanganyika
Forested mountains fall directly to Lake Tanganyika, making Mahale a chimpanzee journey, a lake journey and a remote expedition at once.
Uganda
Mount Elgon & Sipi Falls
Ancient volcanic highlands, the great Mount Elgon caldera, Sipi’s waterfalls and coffee country in Uganda’s quieter east.
Uganda
Mgahinga Gorilla National Park
Uganda’s small, high Virunga park: mountain gorillas, golden monkeys, bamboo forest and three demanding volcanoes above Kisoro.
Uganda
Rwenzori Kilembe Trail
A serious high-altitude journey into the southern Rwenzori: giant heathers, glacial valleys, steep passes and a measured approach to Margherita Peak.
Uganda
Rwenzori Central Circuit
Walk the Rwenzori Central Circuit through Bujuku, Kitandara and Freshfield Pass, with a carefully assessed option to attempt Margherita Peak.
Uganda
Uganda
Plan Uganda with mountain, primate and safari specialists: Rwenzori trekking, gorilla encounters, Kibale chimpanzees and considered private journeys.
