What Our Kenya Adventurers Think:

My son did Kenyan Africamp and came back saying it can’t be described in words and photos, you’d have to see it for yourself. I did and he was right!

The Kenyan staff are warm and welcoming and gave such an insight into their beautiful country. The work of Moving Mountains is awe-inspiring we visited Ulamba orphanage which is just a small part of the many projects they support.

As well as helping with this project we had 2 safaris, cycling and rock climbing and two amazing journeys across Kenya all packed into a 2 week stay. Fantastic experience and supporting the charity too!
