A Seasoned Guide, a Passionate Host, an African Safari Expert:
Meet Kennedy, the mastermind behind Cascades Africa Safaris, a tour company crafted with over two decades of experience traversing the African wilderness. His journey began not just as a travel specialist, but as a soul woven into the fabric of Africa's vibrant landscapes.
For over 20 years, Kennedy honed his expertise, navigating the intricate pathways of leading Kenyan tour companies. This wasn't just a job; it was a pilgrimage, a constant dialogue with the untamed spirit of the African savanna. He witnessed the sunrise paint the Maasai Mara in gold, felt the earth tremble beneath the hooves of wildebeests, and learned the language of the wind whispering through acacia trees.
From Student to Safari Maestro:
Kennedy's love affair with travel started long before the official title of "Travel Specialist" adorned his badge. As a student, his backpack became his passport, and the Kenyan wilderness, his classroom. He trekked through dense forests, kayaked down gushing rivers, and camped under star-studded skies, each experience etching itself onto his soul.
This deep-rooted connection with the land is what sets Kennedy apart. He's not just a tour guide; he's a storyteller, weaving tales of ancient cultures, breathtaking landscapes, and the captivating creatures that call Africa home. His passion is palpable, his enthusiasm infectious, and his knowledge, an endless wellspring.
Cascades Africa Safaris: Where Dreams Take Flight:
In 2017, Kennedy's years of experience culminated in the birth of Cascades Africa Safaris. This wasn't just a business venture; it was a canvas where he could paint his vision of the perfect African safari. He envisioned journeys that transcended sightseeing, journeys that touched the soul, that left travelers not just with memories, but with a newfound appreciation for the wild symphony of life in Africa.

He doesn't just design itineraries; he designs memories. He takes into account your preferences, your pace, your thirst for adventure, and crafts a journey that resonates with your inner explorer.
Beyond the Safari:
Kennedy's commitment to his homeland Kenya extends far beyond the thrill of the safari in Africa. He's a staunch advocate for responsible tourism, ensuring that every footprint leaves a positive impact on the land and its communities. He partners with local lodges and guides, supports conservation efforts, and empowers local communities through sustainable tourism initiatives.

PHILANTHROPIC ACTIVITIES
As a way of giving back to the society, Cascades Africa Safaris is involved in the following three major philanthropic areas…
At Cascades Africa Safaris, we are committed to giving back to the community through various philanthropic activities. One of the initiatives that we are involved in is supporting a childrens home in Taveta, a center for wholistic support to vulnerable children in Taita Taveta County.
The idea to form T.C.A. arose from the needs that were seen among the members of the community, most of them widows, HIV/AIDS positive single mothers and very old people incapable of raising vulnerable and orphaned children left to their care. It was evident to us that their various needs were also just as desperate.
The problems affecting the children were many. It was understood that the suffering the children faced was actually resulting from adult problems. Some of these problems were 1) Poverty and unemployment, 2) Parent abandonment, 3) Parent deaths from HIV & AIDS, 4) Idleness, 5) Drugs and substance abuse, 6) Illiteracy and 7) Commercial sex trade. From Taveta’s Town Hall, TCA began feeding programs for the children every weekend and food ration distributions for the guardians to carry home.
