We chose a 6-day, 5-night safari with the itinerary Masai Mara (2 nights) – Lake Nakuru (1 night) – Amboseli (2 nights), classified as a mid-range package.
The accommodations, however, were far beyond our expectations – truly beautiful and exceeding what you would normally expect from a mid-range safari.
A very special mention goes to our guide and driver Reimond, who was absolutely amaz ... Read moreing and tireless. Thanks to his deep knowledge of the parks and wildlife, we were able to spot all of the Big Five multiple times and so much more – we counted around 40 different species! Reimond consistently brought us to the right places first, ensuring we had the best views. His professionalism, dedication, and insightful explanations made our experience unforgettable.
The jeep provided was also perfect: spacious, comfortable even for 8 people, and capable of tackling any type of road, making the journey even more pleasant and safe.
Every detail of the program was perfectly respected.
If you’re planning a safari in Kenya, look no further than Axis Africa Safaris – impeccable organization, excellent accommodations, top-quality vehicles, and exceptional guides like Reimond will make your adventure truly unforgettable.
We gad the greatest experience working with Jackie when planning and booking the safari trip.
Then Sadam was our guide and we managed to see all of the incredible animals in Massi Mara and Lake Nakuru! Definitely recommend both Jackie and Sadam.
Everything was perfect from start to finish!!
BEST DRIVER WAS SADAM!
Jacky was the best sales agent who was super helpful and supportive!!
Thank you for the perfect African Safari Experience!
My wife and I did a 6-Day Honeymoon Safari with Axis and we really enjoyed it. We visited Masai Mara, Nakuru and Amboseli.
Before starting the trip, Rita was really helpful replying all of our questions via WhatsApp and our guide Collin Sempele made sure we had a great time during the six days. He is a nice guy, always with a smile on his face despite he should have been really tired sometimes ... Read more.
Axis recommended us great hotels, so we definitely enjoyed our stay. Collin helped us getting pictures of the Big 5, and shared all his knowledge with us. Collin loves photography, so he is always trying to look for the best position/light. He is a really experienced guide, he helps predicting what animals are going to do, so you can have a great view. He also speaks Spanish and Italian, so it’s definitely handy.
The car was great and really comfortable. Looked new. Collin kept it always clean, even after long and exhausting safaris and travel days.
From the office, Rita always tried to help us with everything we needed, from start to finish and giving us the best advices.
Honestly, we would recommend Axis for your next adventure. Really great value for the money.
Jack very friendly,he took us to see many animals.,I enjoyed it.
I had an incredible 4-day trip to the Maasai Mara, made unforgettable by our guide, Jack. From the moment we set out, Jack’s knowledge of the park, its wildlife, and the local culture shone through. He was not just a driver, but a walking encyclopaedia who knew exactly where to go and when, which meant we got the very best out of our time there.
We were lucky enough to see both the Big Five a ... Read morend the so-called Ugly Five, which was beyond anything I expected. Watching lions on the hunt, elephants moving gracefully in family herds, and even spotting a rhino up close was awe-inspiring. Jack’s sharp eyes meant we didn’t miss a thing, and he always had fascinating stories to share about the animals’ behaviour and the wider ecosystem.
The tour itself was well-paced, with plenty of time to soak in the landscapes, from the endless golden plains to the winding rivers full of hippos and crocodiles. The four days felt perfectly balanced between adventure, learning, and pure wonder.
Overall, this was the trip of a lifetime. If you want a guide who is both knowledgeable and genuinely passionate about the Mara, Jack is the person to ask for.
The safari was very well organized and the plan covered many parks. Our tour guide Peter Kapino was very experienced and knowledgeable and he made an effort great effort for us to see all the big 5.
Overall a very nice experience
We had a good trip with Axis Africa, everything was well organised from the first hotel pick up to the days we were out doing activities. Guide, Peter Kapino, was very knowledgeable, friendly and ensured we had a good time. He tried hard to find all animals whilst we were out on safari and answered all our questions, both about the animals and generally about life in Kenya! We felt safe at all tim ...

There were a couple of negatives of the trip. Firstly, a few of the optional activities were a little more expensive than we were told or had hidden costs which were not stated in the description. Secondly, the last day was very rushed, when in Hell's gate it felt as though we were being rushed along and didn't have time to 'explore' as described, we did the minimum not exploring the caves etc. Following that visit, we were taken for lunch at 11:30am before driving back to Nairobi, although we had been told we would end the day around 4pm. This 5th day was realistically only half a day and it was a shame to end on such a rushed and disappointing note when we were expecting a whole day of activity. It seemed this was because another couple on the shared trip were staying another day and and travelling to amboselli and so our day had to be rushed to accommodate them, which I felt was unfair to us. I don't believe this was the guides fault as I understand this would be a long day for him, but the other couples trip should not have impacted ours.
The trip seemed generally good value for money, although it seemed other similar priced trips did include the day 4 boat ride price, which this didn't. And the very limited final day reduced the value for money.
