Powerful Experience
The trip was very good. We had a safe and very pleasent drive. We were lucky and could see a lot of animals in the park. The housting was ok and our guide Patrick was wonderful! I did a tour to Masai Mara and Lake Nakuru and I was very happy to see both places.
Many thanks for this great experience.

Incredible experience and I can't wait to return.
We booked our tour through Axis Africa Safaris. The entire process was seamless. I planned this trip for 11 months and Lennox worked with me every step of the way. He mad sure that we had a private tour of the Maasai Mara for 5 days and when the airlines changed our flights and had to cut it to 4 days he made everything work. He made payments easy and everything was better than what I could ever expect. Our accommodations were great. We had a queen size bet in our tent and could hear the baboons at night and while going to leave in the morning we had a family of giraffes walk in front of us. We never went hungry thats for sure. Three meals a day and always plenty to eat.
Our guide Kikitu Douglas picked us up at the airport on time and we spent four fantastic days with him on safari. He made sure we were able to see everything we wanted and worked extremely hard to make sure we saw everything there was to see. Kikitu is the best guide that we have ever had for any travel experience. We travel all over the world and nobody comes close to as hard as he works for his clients. He is friendly and seems to know everyone and is able to put you right in the middle of the action. He was even able to recommend a restaurant in Nairobi on our way back to the airport so we didn't have to be at the airport so long. I can't wait to return because the entire trip was amazing.
Thank you for making this such an amazing trip!

Low cost but interesting
I was in a budget safari but it was not so comfortable, not electricity even at night, very poor and bad packedlunch, not a window for everybody, not a lot of interest of the driver/guide, but even that I enjoyed my stay

We enjoyed Kenya wildlife.
Loved seeing and learning about the wildlife. Since that was our purpose and goal for the trip, Kenya surpassed our expectations in that area. There was an abundance of wildlife at all the locations visited and we would not have skipped anything on our itinerary except for Lake Bogoria. Masai Mara, Ambroselli, and Lake Nakura were our favorites,
Most accommodations were adequate.
I did not think Kenya or its wildlife parks were tourist friendly. The lack of bathrooms was surprising.
Mixed review for tour company and guide. They kept changing our lodging and trying to give us lesser quality lodging. Guide knew a lot about wildlife but would only share what was specifically asked. I felt like I had to fight to get all that was included on the itinerary either to save money on park admission or make the job easier for the driver/guide. Driver had very good driving skills.
High pressure sales tactic used at rest stops which were not appreciated.
Incredible
We visited Kenya in March, the start of the wet season. I was warned that wildlife isn't good this time of year. However, on our way to our first camp in the Masai Mara, we saw almost every animal we wanted to, and that was just on the way in! The wildlife here is abundant and varied. Our accommodations were absolutely beautiful and comfortable, with all of them offering delicious food. The roads can be a very bumpy, and the country is quite big so traveling by car can give you a sore behind! I certainly couldn't help but wonder how some mature travellers were handling it.
The weather through the day was lovely, not too hot, not too cold. The rains did set in in the afternoon, but it always cleared by morning. It didn't interrupt our game drives too much.
We loved our time in this country and highly recommend it to others interested in a safari.
