My name is Mwangi M. Samuel (Sammy), born and raised in the lands of Gikuyu community who dwells on the slopes of Mount Kenya. Born in a remote village on the lower slopes of Mount Kenya, in a family with no connections to the climbing industry. I grew up watching the distant spiky peaks pierce the sky, never imagining that I would one day become a mountaineer.
After high school, I had to work as a mountain porter to sustain myself whereby I grew gaining practical experience and outdoors knowledge the hard way from poor working conditions to wearing inappropriate clothes and shoes. Little did I knew that my potters’ job was a gateway to discovering my passion and love for outdoors.
Later, I joined the school of outdoor leadership at Mount Kenya Wildlife Service (KWS) in collaboration with International Mountaineering and Climbing Federation (UIAA). I was accredited in Mountain Leadership Skills, Wilderness First Aid, Outdoor Ethics, Certified and Licensed handling most of wild challenges.
“Running Spiky Tours, it’s all about being your reliable guide to finding quality, authentic and trusted outdoor activities at a higher-level season after season is my satisfaction”- Sammy.
Inspired by my daughter born on the same year of this company inception.
