knowledgeable Guides
Axis Africa Safaris and our guide and driver Evans were fantastic! The communications and services were prompts and Evans had an expert's insights into the park and animals, knowing where animals tend to be at what time, and how best to get there quickly.
We ended up seeing all the big five, and lots of other interesting animals, during our trip and I would recommend anyone going to Masai Mara to go with Axis.

Amazing experience!
My drivers Alex, John and Kikitu were all fantastic. They were all very friendly and knowledgeable about the area and the animals. They were also always keeping us informed of the plan and making sure we were all clear and happy.
They did a great job driving us through the very muddy roads, I wasn’t sure we were going to make it at some points!
I was traveling along during this time and it really makes a difference when you feel like the people you are being guided by are friendly and talkative, otherwise it can be a bit lonely.

Excellent experience
We had a very positive experience.
Axis Africa Safari's trip proposal, planning and quick answer to all our questions was excellent.
Thank you for organizing this unique experience for us.
Samuel is a great guide and driver. He was constantly taking care of our comfort and safety. He is an excellent driver, very friendly and knowledgeable as safari guide. He was able to find the most seldom animals ever seen!
We would positively advise him to everyone.
The Sopa lodge in Lake Navashai was the best you could imagine. It was so luxurious and special with the animals walking around in the garden, even hippos at night! In all lodges the food was excellent.
Since rainy season had just begon, it was very important we had a 4-wheel drive car. We were able to go everywhere, where other cars got stuck sometimes.

The best experience we have ever had with a guide
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 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!

Simply amazing!
Hi Lennox,
Safari was great! A very nice experience. We got to see the Big Five and we were actually surprised how many animals we got to see, like all the time we had animals in sight. The entire programme was very nice and the places we stayed was awesome. Very good stuff you put together!
Of cause I have to mention our driver Evans Ngigi. He was simply awesome. First of all he was very good at spotting animals. Second of all he drove very well. And third of all he was the nicest guy on earth taking his time to be social. A very big applause to him!

Amazing!
The safari was everything we expected. The daily schedule was accurate and our driver Isaac kept everything on track. We got to see everything we could have hoped for. The lodging is at it says budget but you have all the modern amenities one would need. Overall it seems that the main distinction of a good Safari is who your driver is and ours was the best. Thanks Isaac!

Excellent safari!
Everything went perfectly well. When booking the safari, Lennox from the office was very helpful and gave us fast replays for our quires. Before the safari, he was in contact with us and made sure that everything was ready for our trip. Our guide, Samuel, came to pick us up from the hotel on time. We had a private safari so there were only us in that jeep. Samuli was a very good driver, which was needed as the roads in national parks were quite bad! We visited Amboseli, Tsavo East and Tsavo West National Parks in 4 days. Accommondations in those parks were just perfect, if we only could have stayed longer in those places and enjoy all the facilities they offered. Samuel is very friendly and his knowledge of nature and animals was amazing. He had answer for us every time we asked something. You could tell that Samuel really likes his job. He wanted to make sure we spotted all kinds of animals. And we sure did: lions, elephants, cheetahs, monkeys, zeepras, giraffes, crocodiles, lots of different kinds of birds, pumbas, hyenas, hippos, buffalos, antilopes etc etc.. Just perfect. Thank you Axis Safaris and Samuel, our driver and guide!

3 day, 2 nights Masai Mara Safari
I went on a 3 day, 2 nights Safari with Axis agency, everything was perfect and the food was remarkably good and there was plenty of choice. Marvin was our driver and he really took the effort to find interesting things for us to see and get close to the animals. Only strange thing about this whole thing was that we also shared the safari van and the whole experience with people who booked from other agencies, so as far as I noticed you won't be exclusively with people who booked though the same agency. Although they took tht effort to pick up and drop us off where ever in the city we wanted with no extra cost. I would definitely recommend booking the safari with them.

Wonderful Experience
The trip was very well organised. The safari car driver cum guide speaks good english and was very knowledgeable about the animals & birds at Kenya. He would make efforts to ensure we spot the animals and get good view. He would also ensure that we take a best possible photograph. All the staff at the camp site including the driver, cook, and other staff are very courteous and make extra efforts to ensure you stay and travel is comfortable. I would be happy to recommend to any one who want to go for safari at Kenya to take the services of Axis Africa Safari.

Great experience with good price
We had a great experience with Axis Africa Safaris from the day one when I contacted them from the other side of the world. Communication was fast and clear and once we arrived everything worked out as great as planned. There was no hassle with anything, car picked us up straight from the airport and took us to a 3-day group joining safari to Masai Mara and after the adventure they dropped us off at the doorstep of our hotel. And no money was needed in advance, we paid when we met up. Our driver Antony wasn't much of a talker but he sure knew how to drive! He seemed to give more than 100% so we could see as much different animals as possible. We were even lucky enough to see a leopard there! Which doesn't happen every day as I understood. Great experience, great people, great service, and all that with a very reasonable price! I recommend!
