Amazing Safari
I and my husband and 2 friends joined 3D2N Masai Mara Safari tour started from 18jul2021, Jack was our driver who was professional, friendly and punctual. The game drivings were full of fun, the migration of zebra and wildebeest were stunning. Despite we already had taken a lot of great photos during the first and second day, Jack still tried his best to spot animals and great views for us during the last morning game drive, his attitude impressed me a lot. Thank you very much to Jack for all the effort taken.
Axis Africa Safaris did a great job.

Above Expectations
The Masai Mara Safari was our third safari experience in Kenya after Salt Lick and Tsavo East. It was our first experience with Axis Africa. Our tour was initially scheduled for April but due to lockdown in Nairobi, it had to be cancelled. Axis Africa were very accommodating in giving us a credit note to be used at a later date. I was very happy with this as we have had bad experiences in the past. From the the pick up to the drop off, all went seamlessly. The Land Cruiser was in excellent condition which was a good start and the tour guide Jack was excellent giving us clear information and planning everything well. All in all our experience in Mara is something we will never forget. Thanks to the Axis Africa team for this amazing experience.

Accomodating
We had to postpone our safari from April to July and Axis helped uswith a credit note. Our guide Jack was on time and stuck to the itinery as agreed. Axis took care of the details like meals etc. And gave us a seemless and stress free experience.

Excellent
I did the 3 days tour to Masai Mara through Axis Africa Safari. The trip was amazing. Communication with Axis has been smooth and from the beginning they respond very well and provide clear and detail information about Safari, accommodation , meal and everything I need to know. Our driver/guide was very experience and informative and gave us lots of information on the way and inside the Masai Mara reserve. We did an evening and a full day keep safari and our driver/guide really worked hard to get us in the best position to see the animals up close . I enjoyed well organized and well communicated Axis Africa’s Masai Mara tour.

Excellent service
We were a couple who joined 4 other travellers for the trip.
This was an amazing trip from start to end. We were picked up on time from the airport and proceeded to Masai Mara. Our driver/guide was very informative and gave us lots of information along the way, pointing out important landmarks and telling stories. When we reached Masai Mara we stayed in Lenchada Camp for two nights. I really enjoyed this. It was classed as budged camping so I wasn't expecting much but it surpassed my expectations. The tent had a full bed and working toilet and shower facilities. The buffet meals were good too. We did an evening safaru drive and a full day safari drive in Masai Mara. Again, Khalifa was excellent. He gave us lots of information about the reserve and the animals. He really worked hard to get us in the best positions to see the animals up close. We also visited a Masai village which was a great experience. Our group then proceeded to Nakure where we stayed in a really nice hotel. We visited the national park and again Khalifa was on hand with excellent information and wonderful photo opportunities. Here we saw rhino, lions, giraffes and flamingos. We then visited Naivisha where we stayed in Dove Nest Lodge. We did a boat trip where we saw lots of hippo. We did a cycle in Hells Gate national part. It was fine but very dusty.
On the final day our group split and it was just the two of us and our driver Khalifa. As we are both teachers we were keen to visit a school as we had brought lots of gifts for children. Khalifa organised for us to visit a local school which was a great experience. We then headed back to Nairobi where our itineary said the trip ended with an airport dropoff at 3PM. We had a late night flight and Khalifa stayed with us until 9PM when he dropped us to the airport. This was very unexpexted and was a real treat as we got to be shown around the city by a Nairobi resident. We visited the Giraffe Centre, local craft shops, got to see the contrasting parts of the city and Khalifa even organised for me to get some high quality coffee to bring home.
An unbeliveable trip made better by an excellent company and guide

Amazing safari!
Communication with Axis Safari staff has been smooth from the very beginning: they provide clear and detailed information about the safari, the accommodation, meals and everything you need to know.
On day 1, they came at picked me up from the place I was staying in Nairobi and drove to Masai Mara. Had first game drive.
On day 2, we spent the whole day in the reserve and the driver was great in showing us all possible animals and giving explanations regarding them.
Day 3 was about experiencing the Masai village and the Masai way of living and returning to Nairobi.
The whole 3 days were great! Very well organized. We stayed at Lenchada camp, which is nice and comfortable and provides everything you need.
Great value for the money.
Recommended!

Worth it
When my son and I decided we wanted to check Africa RF our bucket lists, we decided the best way to do it would be to go on a Safari. We are experienced travelers, but we had no clue what we were doing in this case. I found Safari Bookings through a Google search and requested three different quotes for a 3-day budget Safari. I received all three quotes within 24 hours and prices were very comparable. However, only Axis Safaris sent a detailed description of the entire itinerary, information on COVID requirements, and pictures of the accommodations. Lennox reached out through WhatsApp immediately, and answered all of our questions very patiently. He was very accommodating, as I had to change the dates of the trip three times due to problems with airline reservations (when will this COVID madness end!). Our guide was Richard. He was also very patient and accommodating as we were all being picked up and dropped off at different locations, and we had little ones in the group. Richard was very knowledgeable and educating. We didn’t just see animals - we learned a little bit about each and every species of mammal, bird and plant we encountered. Thank you for the great experience!

Unforgettable Safari
My friend and I booked the "5-Day Come in as Guests Leave as Family" safari with Lennox & Axis Africa Safari. Lennox was very responsive and answered my many questions timely. We joined 6 other people, for total of 8. It was a good mix.
We paid a bit extra for JEEP, and I highly suggest jeep over van (I have experienced both). The safari was a good value. Our guide was JACK. JACK was knowledgeable of the area, animals, and history. He was accommodating and flexible as needed. He also helped to obtain PCR test.
I highly recommend Axis Africa and JACK for your safari experience.

Amazing experience
4 days maasai Mara with Axis Africa Safaris was awesome.especially with Khalif who was our tour guide.He was jovial and knowledgeable about wildlife. I enjoyed his stories and mostly how he was patient with everyone.as u know,there were people from different cultures with different behaviours. It takes only a patient person to understand them .
I like how organised and well communicated Axis Africa expedition is.,with great services in general.
Highly recommended!
