We specialize in friendly and relaxed tours to see, watch and photograph birds and mammals in their own natural habitat.
Our birding tours are sundry! We cover the whole of East Africa offering tours that range from being much focused on birds to those of more famous wildlife, bird photography, and nature, plus local cultural interests.
ConQuest Adventures provides skillfully led birdwatching tours whether for an individual, group, or beginner in birding adventures. There are birds and magnificent animals to marvel at, plants to enjoy, and landscapes and culture to delight in East Africa, which makes the region a must-visit destination.
East Africa(Kenya|Uganda|Tanzania) is a striking destination for birdwatching, bird photography, and wildlife tours, as the range of environments makes for a hugely diverse bird and mammal population. East Africa’s topography features range from snow-capped mountains, desert, sandy coastlines, freshwater lakes, savanna grasslands extinct volcanoes, and coral reefs, one of the most wildlife-rich regions is bisected by two rift valleys running north to south
With a range of African and country-specific endemic birds, as well as migrant species which visit breed and summer in the southern hemisphere, birding safaris in East Africa are always full of surprises. We are resolutely focused on finding wildlife for you to see, though only in a sensitive and sustainable way, and plan very carefully in advance to give you the best chances, in comfort and safety.
We never forget that it is your holiday and work hard to ensure that all the fundamentals of the safari; accommodation, transport, food, the plan and pace of the birdwatching itinerary, and the all-important leadership combine to give you a superb all-round experience, and, of course, unforgettable memories of East Africa.
The importance is on personal service, with a limit of just six clients per guide on birding trips, and our guides know that the really vital part of any birding tour is the experience for you, our valued customer. We plan the entire holiday, from the briefing on the first evening you land at the airport to round-up on the last day of the tour, organizing everything to go well with birdwatching, bird photography, wildlife, weather, and your progress throughout the safari.
I highly recommend Mwangi and ConQuest Adventures. We had an excellent day of birding in Gatamaiyu Forest outside of Nairobi. The trip was easy to plan and all... read more of my emails were answered quickly. Gatamaiyu is a quick trip from Nairobi. Mwangi was an excellent, knowledgeable guide. We went for an amazing hike and saw many species of birds under his guidance. 5 stars!!
I made a 1 week birding trip in central Kenya with Mwangi (owner of ConQuest). The trip was very well planned and we managed to see almost all the... read more species on my wish-list without too much stress, as well as enjoying some stunningly beautiful landscapes, wildlife and nice accommodation .

Hello the community,
I have spend one morning with ConQuest Adventure...my only aim during this mini trip was to spot the fantastic "Hartlaub's Turaco" and thanks to the expert... read more eye of my guide we succeed :) and I took great pictures of this great bird
I truly recommend ConQuest Adventures to nature lovers and animal lovers
Seriously wake up early and be prepared for a great day, my bf made those super survival arrangements and forgot the most important (tea and snacks). Even so, we had... read more so much fun, the Guide Mwangi Gitau took us to those beautiful waterfalls. My period started by the end of the trip and I got super sick, but he stopped the car many times for us and it was great.
Consider camping and hiking in the Aberdare, carry a 200mm+ lens if you want to take pictures. Mwangi Gitau is an incredible bird spotter and photographer, who you will surely learn from and share some laughs with.
Don’t be afraid to go for a swim before the afternoon as you will dry off quick before 3:00pm.

The patience given... read more to the many unusual questions from children, their manners and still they came out with so much learning was just awesome. The day was not rushed where no time limit was given for everything: game, birding, children play breaks in the various picnic sites, photography lessons, the teenager needed sleep break so she got slow pace ride as she was unwell.
The family even had the opportunity to see one of the black rhinos in the park up close. Thank you guide, driver, babysitter, teacher too many hats.
