Well organised, professional and flexible, all in ensuring that the experience is worth desiringmore
The experience was just nothing but amazing!
We were well received and entertained with cultural songs, dances and games that have been preserved and passed down from one generation to another for centuries and then booked at Sarova Mara, The scenery was as wild ,warm and exciting, perhaps more than we'd expected . The staff were charming light hearted and easy to interact with, had this infectious positive energy that wherever you turned that made feel wanted, appreciated and home.
The food, oh Lord! Fresh & Sumptuous meals prepared with heavenly hearts. The alternative were broad to your liking with a mix of newer experiences. I loved the open-to-the-wild dinner concept, and all that positive energy from each guest radiated throughout the camp. It's was just relaxing and and rejuvenating.
The game drive know their craft, I loved the fact the our tour guide drive went like desperately wanted us to have to see everything. Their dedication and passion for the drives was so reassuring, and hilarious game narratives got us laugh to tears! They were just free spirited, perhaps naturally born that way.
The only downside on my end was that I had to wake up early to see the wild animals, just before sunset, especially after the night drinks,because that's when all the animals in the jungle have a family meeting. If it were within our control to schedule their meeting I would have slept more

Bespoke, tailored and fabulous !!!
I booked with Kennedy in 2018 with a view to visiting in 2020. Of course, covid hit and i was able to travel till June 2022.
I wanted a completely bespoke experience and was happy to pay a premium for this. As a single traveller i wanted to feel accompanied and safe.
Was it worth the wait ?????
Oh my life - YES !!!!
Kennedy planned my entire visit - suggesting venues, in line with my wish list, that maximised my game drive time whilst providing exceptional lodges for rest and relaxation.
My Guide, and now lifelong friend, Dan is the most beautiful soul. He looked after me like no other … like i was the only person on the planet that mattered. We talked constantly (i talk alot and had a million questions) about everything from kids to tax.
Dan ensured that i got the positions, when seeing the wildlife, and always shared facts about the animals - most of which i would never have known without him.
I was sad to leave Dan for my onward trip to Tanzania and the Zanzibar (not as good as Kenya for wildlife or guides).
Please book and ENJOY !!!!

Exceptional
For over a year I’ve been planning my trip to Kenya and Kennedy have worked with me tirelessly and effortlessly to ensure I had an amazing time. Kennedy was always there to answer any questions I need no matter what time of the day it was. He went above and beyond in ensuring I had all the proper details. Communication was by far the best I’ve ever experienced with any agency. Time management was even more impeccable. Kennedy and his team was always early not once have we had to wait for them. Professionalism was superb. One of my group member forgot something at the camp and Kennedy ensure it was retrieved and handed to us before we depart Kenya. That act of generosity spoke volume and for that I look forward in doing future tours with company. Our Driver John was an amazing tour guide he ensure we had the best experience on our game. He was extremely knowledgeable and fun. They made us felt not like a business transaction but most importantly A FAMILY.

Such a great person
I booked with them just by sending 200$ first, and they came to pick us up in Giraffe Manor. From there, I have to say, that was one of the best experiences in my life. I will come back there, hopefully next year, with a group of people which I already have made plans ahhaaahha. I am very happy with their services, and very happy to meet great african people. .

Professional, quick to respond, listen to customer need
Kennedy was amazing!
He was responsive, quick to reply to email/whatsapp, and listening to us. We changed our program multiple times and he was always willing to adjust, recommend. He was flexible with cancellation/payment terms which was a great plus in COVID time. Such a stressfree booking experience.
He personally welcomed us at the airport before leaving us with our driver John who stayed with us for the rest of the trip. John was a smooth and flexible driver, very knowledgable about the park and its animals. He always had an annecdot or a joke to tell us. Worth mentioning that we had a private 4x4 car and had no problems on the road, not like other agency that offer minibus options and get stuck in the mud (we saw plenty)
I would highly recommend Kennedy if you want a professional, smooth, out of this world experience

Simply amazing!
We had the most amazing family trip to Kenya! From start to finish Kennedy made sure all details were taken care of for us. His choices in the Masai Mara and Diani Beach exceeded our expectations. The tents, food, staff, and beach house were more then we could have asked for. John was an excellent tour guide and made sure we saw as many animals as possible. We highly recommend the services of African Challenge Safaris.

Professional, reliable, dedicated felt like family
This was by far one of the best safaris I have undertaken with my family (wife, kids 8 and 10 along with my father in law). Kennedy was professional and handled every minute detail like a through professional, we were treated to the best Kenyan hospitality. Places recommended and booked by Kennedy perfectly fitted our expectations and budget the itinerary was perfect and well layed out. The kids, wife and grandpa loved the trip and the details of the planning.
Look forward to planning another safari with other family members soon with Kennedy and his gold class team.
The silver lining in the Covid cloud for 2020 for me and my family was this beautiful trip planned by Kennedy.
