It was a great adventure. We booked 3-days Safari in Masai Mara and now I know we should book more days! That was an incredible to see a many animals in one place, we didn’t expect it could be real. Our guide and driver Ken made an experience that I will never forget. He explained us everything about animals and answered for all questions. He has a big respect for animals and nature and he showe ... Read mored it us. We strongly recommend Axis Africa Safari, they care about everything- accommodation, transport, foods. I hope to come back here for longer Safari trip.
1. Guide: Joseph is pleasant guide, 5/5! A skillful and careful driver on the road. He is skillful in game drive at Ambosseli National Park too, especially on spotting animals instead of relying just on radios. He uses both. He is reliable, flexible and always on time. The 4x4 Land Cruiser was kept clean everyday and water bottles are provided everyday. Joseph would also try avoiding driving direc ... Read moretly behind other vehicles to avoid dust and smoke. (It gets super dusty both on the road and during game drive, and no Air Conditioning.)
2. Lodging in Ambosseli: We stayed at Sentrim Ambosseli. Staff were pleasant, food was great with a number of choices of local/Western international/Indian delicacies. 4/5 for shower/toilet in the room due to water pressure and cleanliness in need of improvement. Great view of Kilimanjaro.
3. We booked our whole trip (Masai Mara- Lake Nakuru-Ambosseli) with Axis Safari but when we were in Lake Nakuru, we transferred to another 4x4. So, I am unsure which company is which, as all tourists in the 4x4 booked with a different operator. Nonetheless, it was a pleasant closure to have Joseph as our guide in Ambosseli.
Prompt in response, reliable, interesting trip with a responsible tour guide - Collin
Nice service from Axis Africa i love to recommend this tour operator to my friends and family :)
An absolutely phenomenal experience, was able to see 4/5 of the big 5 and around 15 other different animals.
The tour is so amazing , especially our guide Roger is the best. The country is beautiful with such wonderful and welcoming people. We loved it so much and can't wait to go back someday. My trip to Kenya was absolutely magical, largely due to the incredible safari experience in the Masai Mara. We were lucky to have a guide, Patrick, who was both incredibly informative and knew exactly where to fin ... Read mored the most elusive animals. We saw almost all of the Big Five, and it was a truly exhilarating experience to be so close to them in their natural habitat.
Peter Kapino was assigned to us, the information about the country and the park was really top notch, learnt a lot from him. He was very passionate in showing us animals in the park. Would definitely recommend him and Axis Africa Team to my fellow mates.
We enjoyed Masaimara safari with Axis safari...thank you team n special thanks to our Guide Mr.Peter Kapino..who put great effort to make our safari trip more enjoyable.
Had a awesome 4D 3N Masai Mara trip through Axis Africa Expedition and Safaris. Right from planning to execution, everything was well organized. Everything went smoothly as per our expectation. Thank you Axis.
Tabitha Mwangi helped us plan our trip. It took us 3 weeks to finalise the trip. At every stage, she was very courteous, prompt and very patient in answering all over questions.
Peter ... Read more Kapino was assigned as our guide cum driver for the safari. He was very engaging and knowledgeable about the animals, people, and culture of the Masai Mara. He was able to answer all our questions about the animal. One the first day itself, we were able to see Big 4 (except Rhino) due to knowledge.
I highly recommended Peter Kapino as your guide/driver for your next trip Masai Mara trip via Axis
Had a fantastic three day/2 night tour with Colin. He was engaging and very knowledgeable about the animals, people, and culture of the Maasi Mara. Almost more importantly he was always able to give us guidance on the best photos! Highly recommended.
