Excellent in driving by John Mwangi, hospitality and Knowledge
All was from the first till the last word well communicated. In a friendly and clear way things are well explained, with no hidden backdoors. All fees were agreed ahead and no extra’s were popping up as surprise. I had a wonderfull safari with stunning views, very many observations with nature, plants and above all animals. I hoghly recommend Axis.
Fantastic experience
John Mwangi did his best in the game drive!! He gave us a fantastic experience in Masai Mara.

Raymond is an extremely talented, proactive, sincere and honest tour guide.
I really enjoyed the 2 days of safari game drive at Masai and 1 day at Lake Nakuru game drive. I sincerely recommend Raymond as the guide. He very proactive in monitoring as well as communicating with other guides to find rare spottings. In the first day itself we completed the Big 5 checklist. Lion mating, Leopard hunting, Lion hunting, Cheetah hunting, Crocodiles, Hippos, Black Rhino were really ... Read more special. Raymond was extremely insightful and answered all our questions and shared rare valuable insider information.
Great
What an incredible safari experience! 🦁🐆🦏❤️
From the very first day to the last, everything was absolutely perfect. Our safari guide and driver was simply amazing! He was incredibly kind, attentive and always on time. He really listened to what we wanted and went the extra mile — sometimes quite literally! 😂 — to find the animals we dreamed of seeing.
Thanks to his incred ... Read moreible dedication and determination, we were lucky enough to see some truly exceptional animals, including a leopard and even a black rhino! These are memories we will never forget. You could tell that he genuinely wanted us to have the best possible experience, and he worked incredibly hard to make it happen.
A huge thank you also to Cynthia and the entire Axis Safari team. From the very beginning, organising our trip was easy and completely stress-free. Cynthia was always available, made all the changes we requested without any problem, and gave us excellent suggestions that really improved our itinerary.
Axis Safari made our Kenyan adventure absolutely unforgettable. We came for the wildlife, but we are leaving with incredible memories, huge smiles and a real love for Kenya. 🇰🇪❤️
Thank you for everything! We would recommend Axis Safari without hesitation — eyes closed! 🙏✨
Best safari experience in Kenya
This was our first ever safari, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience.
From the very beginning, the booking team were incredibly helpful, straightforward and honest. We really appreciated that our expectations were never oversold or exaggerated. We opted for the friendly budget option, but were still very pleasantly surprised by the quality of the accommodation, vehicle and overa ... Read morell experience.
What really made our trip exceptional, however, was our tour guide Yasin. He consistently went above and beyond to put us in the right places at the right times. Of course, with nature, nothing can ever be guaranteed, and wildlife sightings are always a matter of luck. We were incredibly fortunate to experience some genuinely rare and unforgettable sightings, and a huge part of that was down to our guide’s exceptional navigational skills, experience, and connections with other staff and guides.
Beyond that, Yasin's enthusiasm and knowledge were fantastic. He was able to explain not only the animals and their behaviour, but also the surrounding flora and fauna, which gave us a much deeper appreciation of everything we were seeing.
Thank you for making our first safari such a memorable experience. We came away with some incredible memories and a real appreciation for the wildlife and the people who work so hard to make these experiences possible. We would happily recommend this tour to anyone looking for an authentic and memorable safari experience.
Really good experience.

The safari was brilliant - our guide Ben was amazing - flexible and very knowledgeable
We had a really amazing experience with Axis Africa Safari during our Kenya trip! 🇰🇪🦁
A special shoutout to our guide Kevin Apidi. He was extremely professional, friendly, knowledgeable and honestly, such a great human being. He was always helpful, patient and made sure we were comfortable throughout the trip. Having a good guide makes such a difference on a safari, and Kevin definitely made our experience even more special. If we come back to Kenya again, we would definitely want ...

The package was also very reasonably priced compared to the other safari options we checked. The stays included were really good, and the suggestions from the Axis Africa team throughout the trip helped us a lot in planning what places to visit and how to make the most of our time.
Everything was very well organised — the game drives, stays, food and transfers were all handled smoothly and, most importantly, everything was on time. We genuinely didn’t have to worry about the logistics or face any hassle. We could just enjoy the trip while Axis Africa took care of the planning.
Overall, it was a fantastic experience and we would definitely recommend Axis Africa Safari to anyone planning a Kenya trip. And a big thank you to Kevin for being such an amazing guide and making our safari even more memorable! ❤️
Hopefully, we’ll be back in Kenya soon! 🇰🇪🦒🦁
Nicole was outstanding!
Axis was a great value for a your. In fact, I feel it was way beyond what you would expect at this price point. The company is so organized and communicates so well with their staff. The tour guides themselves collaborate to ensure all guests get what they need. If one tour guide sees an animal- they call each other to share the location, etc. Also, the guides are so professional and polite- and s ...

We had an amazing guide, Nicole, who knew do many facts and went far and beyond to take us to all the animals. I would highly recommend this company!
very experienced, funny, good English, perfect pacing, a guy youd want to hang out with in private
We had Andrew Kamau as a guide and were astonished by the proffesionalism of him and Axis. He was funny, very experienced with a good English, led us to alle the big five and much more and always knew when to speed up on a "mission" and when to slow down, take a photo/washroom/lunch break to make this exhausting trip really enjoyable and memorable throughout.
The diversity and amount of wildlife ... Read moreto be seen was way beyond what we were expecting, and we felt that Kenyans in general had really made preservation a priority for their country and are rightfully proud of the success.
Vegan or vegetarian options on this tour and in Kenya in general have a way better availability than in many European countries.
We were wondering before the vacation, if it could be worth it, to rent a car and do the drives ourselves, but gladly decided against it and booked this fantastic pretty much all inclusive tour. Just lean back and enjoy all the wonders on the way, you do not need to drive on Kenyan highways and through Savannah rivers, all the Hotels, entrance fees and Lunch options are prearranged for you.
We also had a "special" wish granted in dropping us off on the way back to Nairobi with all our luggage near Naivasha. Communication before our trip was flawless and really helped us to get the most out of our vacation.
Only thing Axis should review in their process: Tripadvisor has a field for Hotel-pickup-time that let us choose 7:30 (which would have been to late anyway considering the 8:00 start at the Headquarters that we couldnt know of). At midnight before, the driver told us he would arrive at 7:00, making it impossible for us to take our hotel breakfast or arrange a breakfast bag or something. So probably review the options given in this field or communicate changes from that plan at least half a day in advance.
Thank you for the fun time and all the memories!
