Passion For Africa
At African Persys, we are driven by a deep connection to Africa, a land that has changed our lives for the better. Founded by an environmentalist with a profound respect for nature, African Persys was born out of a passion to share the beauty, adventure, and culture of Kenya with the world.
Our mission is to take tourists far away from the chaos of modern life and immerse them in the rich wildlife and natural landscapes where our ancestors once thrived. We believe that reconnecting with nature helps us rediscover our roots and fosters a sense of belonging in the world.
We are not just about travel; we are about community. Every trip with African Persys creates at least five job opportunities for locals, ensuring that what we make in Africa stays in Africa and is shared with the community.
