Quickly responsive at almost all hours to deliver requested information
African Sermon Safaris offered a great rate for five days of Safari to see the Maasai Mara Reserve, Nakuru NP, and Naivaisha with all included and excluded services explicitly stated. I appreciate their openness and honesty and mostly their reliability as far as communicating with tour drivers and guides to clarify anything from my side. It was a tour and visit in Kenya that I will never forget for a price that I was able to afford.

cooperative operator, well planned and great experiences for little money!
Due to visa problems I had to postpone the tour a couple of times, it was no problem at all. Communication was easy and fast and very polite.
The tour was well organised, we had enough time, no rushing around. Everything timed perfectly.
Didn't expect so much content and experiences for this price.
The safari driver, John, was fun and communicative, he has a lot of experience in his job and you clearly see that he is still enthusiastic about his work and wants to provide amazing experience for every customer. He also knows where to park the Jeep so you can get good shots! (distance to the animals, direction of the sun/shadows etc.)
I enjoyed it a lot, it was an unforgettable journey!

Great service and best guide
Initial communication was clear and well organized. Johnny - our driver and guide - was the best we could imagine. He went above and beyond to give us an incredible experience. Lastly, this was just a really good value.

The fourth safari in Africa but certainly the most beautiful
After a long search I trusted African Sermon Safari
Excellent choice, easy contact via WhatsApp, punctual, serious, and the best price found.
Great satisfaction in discovering that although we had chosen the safari with a very limited budget we received beautiful accommodations in exchange, two of which with swimming pool
A warm thank you to all operators

INCREDIBLE!!!!
The best trip of my life! Moses the guide made the whole trip! I was just speechless the whole time. We went on a budget safari and it did not disappoint! The game drive was amazing. Moses got us so close to so many animals and knew so much information about each and answers to all our questions. He found us all the big 5 which was so lucky! We went to maasai Mara and lake Nakuru. The accommodations were basic but just what you need to put your head down after a full day safari! Moses had us the first in the park and last out! Also really enjoyed the Maasai village which I was surprised about! Making all my friends and family go on this tour. Will be back to see more of Kenya with Moses! Thank you again for an amazing experience

Amazing experience and a great guide
This 4 day safari was an amazing experience, we enjoyed it a lot! Masai Mara and Lake Nakuru were complementary, providing a full-on safari experience and thus we could see a huge variety of animals. This is of course thanks to Dennis, who was swiftly communicating with other drivers, and knowing when and where to go. Dennis was a very knowledgeable guide, always happy to answer all our questions on animals, on Kenyan lifestyle or on the next activities in the agenda. He was kind and polite, always inquiring how everyone was, making sure that everyone had everything they needed. The communication ahead of the trip with the organiser Daniel was smooth and easy. On the accommodation, Lenchada Camp provided an authentic experience, it was great to be so close to nature and the Masai people, all the staff was helpful and kind. The hotel at Lake Nakuru was also super nice. So thanks a lot for this tour and special thanks to Dennis!

Africanan Sermon Safaris tour provides an unforgettable journey through the breathta
I recently had the privilege of embarking on a safari adventure with African Sermon Safaris an extraordinary tour operator in Kenya, and I cannot praise them enough for the impeccable service, unrivaled expertise, and unforgettable experiences they provided throughout the entire journey.
From the moment we arrived, their team of knowledgeable guides and staff went above and beyond to ensure that every aspect of our trip was seamless, from seamless airport transfers to meticulously planned game drives that allowed us to witness the incredible wildlife up close and personal.
What truly set this tour operator apart, however, was their genuine passion for conservation. They took great care to educate us about the importance of preserving Kenya's magnificent ecosystems. Whether it was witnessing the Great Migration in the Maasai Mara, encountering majestic elephants in Amboseli, or experiencing the unique culture of local communities, every moment was filled with awe and wonder.
I wholeheartedly recommend African Sermon Safaris in Kenya to anyone seeking an unforgettable and meaningful adventure in one of Africa's most captivating destinations.

impressive, well-organized tour in the wilderness
Charles, our guide always made sure we got the best of our tour. He told about the life of the wild animals and tried to show us the version of their diversity which he did very well. We've all seen the big 5 and a lot more .
The accommodations were always clean and the food was delicious.
There would be better solutions for the water supply. We had the small 500ml water bottles. Over 5 days there is a lot of plastic waste. Maybe larger bottles like 1.5l and stations in the accommodations where the water can be refilled.
Many thanks for the unforgettable days, I can recommend this organization with a clear conscience.

completely disorganized and made me feel unsafe
African Sermon Safaris was completely disorganized and had no idea what they were doing. As a solo traveller, I felt unsafe and like I was going to be stranded somewhere. To start, the company gave me no information about my pick up until I asked them multiple questions. They also messed up my reservation and initially put me in the wrong tour, despite me confirming multiple times which tour I wanted to do. When the driver picked me up, he drove me to a random gas station in Nairobi where we waited for the jeep to take me to Masai Mara. The jeep never came, so we went back into the city center to find it. I also assumed everyone on my tour would be staying at the same camp as me and doing the same itinerary, but that wasn't the case. I was the only one out of the people on my tour to stay at my camp. I signed up for the budget tour, so I knew the camp wouldn't be anything fancy, but the camp wasn't gated and our tents didn't even have locks on them. Everyone who worked at the camp was very friendly, but there also wasn't electricity except for 3 hours a day. Anyways, after the first two game drives, the driver thought I was going to Nakuru the next day, but I was supposed to stay in Masai Mara, so they didn't tell me until the next morning who would be taking me on my game drive, since everyone else in my tour was either going back to Nairobi or to Nakuru. It turns out they completely switched which tour company I was with and I finished the rest of the tour with Jocky Tours (which was a much better tour FYI). Except African Sermon Safaris never even told me I was being switched companies -- I only found out from talking to others on the tour. I was supposed to go back to Nairobi the next morning, and they didn't tell me who was taking me until the next morning at 8am. Also, the company never told me. The woman who ran the camp was the one who coordinated my trip back to Nairobi. Anyways, I know all the companies and camps work together, but it felt extremely disorganized and I hated being passed between drivers and companies. In total, I had 6 different drivers throughout my 4 day trip. Even on my way back to Nairobi they had me switch into a different car, which would have been fine, but then they realized they messed up and put me back in the original car. I'm surprised I wasn't stranded somewhere/didn't end up in a different city. While I still had the time of my life on the safari, I would never book with African Sermon Safaris again. It was extremely stressful and the communication was terrible.

Fun and helpful operator who is well informed and equipped on matters Safari, highly recommendable.
We were going on a safari trip to Kenya and initially I contacted four different agencies to get their quotes. In terms of price, the three agencies were roughly the same, but when we looked more closely at the offers, African Sermon Safaris seemed to contain the most and with the highest quality. So we chose them and had a fantastic trip where we were well taken care of all the way.
The information before the trip was accurate and appropriate and was followed up afterwards.
Our travel consultant was Daniel, who was both very helpful, able to tell us about the places we wanted to travel to and overall a pleasure to deal with. I recommend using this company and John Kabiro, the amazing safari guide.
