Perfectly planned Kenya safari
Our first vacation in Kenya is already a few weeks ago and still we miss the expanse of Kenya, the great and many animals and the so friendly people there.
We booked our holiday with African Sermon Safaris and put together an excellent trip for us. We have only asked a lot, written a lot and then also telephoned. Always the answers came quickly and in details. We had the feeling that our holiday is really important and have found everything as promised.
We went on a safari for about 12 days, starting in Nairobi, Masai Mara, Lake Naivasha, Lake Nakuru and then after a night in Nairobi before heading out to Amboseli, Ziwani, Tsavo East and West, it was classy. We were also traveling almost every day, but we wanted to see as much as possible. Everything was wonderful, the camps and lodges were great, the food super and the driver, just for us, was always punctual. I can only recommend Kenya for what you see, simply beautiful. We have been to South Africa, you cannot compare, not half as nice.
We will soon return to Kenya for another vacation and now take more time in Tsavo and explore the East and West part better and also definitely go to Ziwani again.

Amazing Trip, Highly Recommend
We did the 7 day trip to Ol Pajeta, Lake Nukuru, Lake Naivasha, and Maasi Mara and added an extra day in Maasi Mara. Daniel was incredibly flexible and we were able to customize the trip exactly how we wanted it. We had never heard of African Sermon Safaris before and were a little nervous about using the company, but Daniel answered every question promptly and was able to ease our concerns. After booking the trip, only several months before going, he continued to answer our questions and confirmed reservations.
When we arrived, we were met by our driver, Ben Pusi, who was absolutely amazing. He was highly informed, able to spot animals in insane places, and placed the safari van in perfect viewing locations. We barely needed binoculars. We went on another short trip to Rwanda and Uganda after with a guide who was good but nothing like Ben, so we can definitely say Ben is the best. During the trip, we had a couple of small requests and changes to the itinerary and Ben was incredibly flexible, accommodating every request.
The accommodations were also amazing. We selected the mid-range option and did not know what to expect, but the places were ultra luxurious and beautiful. Daniel got us the best rooms, with the best views in the best spots in every location. Every room we stayed in had amazing views, was very comfortable, had great food and service, were clean, and was virtually insect free (which was very important for my wife).
Our least favorite location was Lake Nukuru because the lake is no longer pink due to rising water levels, and we didn't spot a ton of new animals. They are known for their leopards but we were not lucky there. Of course, that is how wildlife spotting goes, but it was a long drive from Ol Pajeta to Lake Nukuru. We made up for everything missed in Maasi Mara, which was our favorite location, and saw every animal we saw in the other locations, plus everything we missed, including leopards. I recommend adding more time in the Maasi Mara if you have extra time, and if not, skip Lake Nukuru to add extra days to Maasi Mara.
Most importantly, the trip was affordable! We had a similar trip planned with another travel agency about two years ago, but didn't go because the cost was almost double what we paid. I have no idea how African Sermon was able to get exactly what we wanted for half the cost (which was most of the reason we were apprehensive at first), but everything turned out exactly as we hoped.
Overall, it was our dream vacation come true and I highly, highly recommend it. We hope to come back soon!

Had a great experience.
There is nothing like a soul, they had to invent that word to explain how you survive after death, that is why they would say go by your gut or the heart feels, before there was enough research to understand everything about consciousness happens in the brain.

We will Never Forget this Trip!
If you want to have a real jungle experience, trust me Kenya wildlife safari can do it for you. Our group went for Kenyan camping safari for the real nature experience. It was a bit different for us city people but totally worth it. We even tried to make our own food with help of our guide on our last night, in the jungle. We will never forget this trip!

It was a Great Time for our Family
We took Kenya wildlife safari for our family vacation few weeks back. As expected, it was really great. Our tour guide ensured to make this a happy family time for us. We went for animal sight-seeing along the banks of Mara River and also took the hot air balloon ride. It was a great time for our family.

Really a Great Experience
This was my first time in Kenya and I was pretty anxious about this whole safari thing. My friends talked me into this on our visit to Tanzania and I am sort glad they did. It was one of a kind experience for me. I heard so many things about Kenya but the safari tour changed it all. The people on our tour I met, the food we had, village walks and hotel stay over here were just perfect. Really a great experience.
