Excellent
Excellent experience. Excellent safari guide Kikitu. Got to see all of the big 5 and more.
Accommodations and food excellent for the price.
Nothing to change.

Brilliant communication from the beginning and great value.
From the very beginning we had great communication from Lennox. He was about the only safari operator who gave us a straight price and not referring us to the website. We found most of the websites annoying in their pricing so it was good to bypass this.
There was a slight confusion on pick up time from the hotel but communication was good and then we were on the road.
Our guide Richard was great and extremely helpful. We were on the budget camping Safari and it was great value with food provided. My only criticism would be the need to buy water, on the day of the long safari, it would have been good to bring extra free water.
On the days of the Safaris Richard did his best and worked hard to show us all the animals and we managed to see them all apart from the elusive Rhino.
Finally, after drop off back in Nairobi, I realised I'd left a modem in the van and Richard and Lennox went above and beyond to return it to our hotel.
I would totally recommend Axis.

Outstanding safari experience
We've had a great safari experience, everything was very well planned by the operator. The services provided were at good standards and was nothing to complain about.

Great!!!
I am so glad that me and my husband choose Axis Africa Safaris. After a long search we decided to choose Axis and we never regret it. First of all we asked all of our questions with mail and Lennox from Axis always return those mails immediately with clear answers.
Our tour guide MARTIN, was one of the best!!! He was so dedicated, he was polite, clever, honest, decent man with a great sense of humor. He was always so understanding and helpful. With help of martin we saw nearly all animal kinds in Masai Mara. He was so hard working and has good relationships with the other drivers. Because of him our tour group has always the nices photo and experience. We also went Lake Nakura, Naivasha and Hells Gate with him and fall in love with those places. Our tour was budget but if u planning to go there or a private tour. Martin is the man :)
Also our luggage lost on the way. They helped us and when the luggae arrive they bring it to us as soon as possible.
Our 5 days budget tour was much more than we expected.

Exellent 5 days Safari trip with gide Kikitu
The main reason why we chose Axis Africa Safaris was the possibility to pay for the trip on arrival without deposit. And we were very happy with our choise. Our Safari guide Kikitu is very positive and funny person. He gave us so much information about animals. During game drives he did everything that we would have the opportunity to see as much as possible animals in their natural habitat. He knew exactly where to go to see them and get the best views. He took care that we get the best of our trip. The accommodation was good, especially Mara Lenchada camp. We had unforgettable experience. Thanks to Axis Africa!
Also the people we joined Safari were great.

Excellent tour with a fantasic guide!
When we were looking for a safari we never knew how lucky we would be with choosing Axis Africa Safaris. Cause we were on a tight schedule, deciding on the duration of safari even while we were en route to Nairobi, the agency and Lennox especially proved to be very flexible in accomodating our wishes and providing valuable information. He was very prompt and helpful. Also while we were already in Masai Mara we were so fascinated with the scenery, that we decided to visit Lake Nakuru as well and they organized it in a heartbeat with no problems or complications because we decided so late. Lake Nakuru was awesome also. Lions, rhinos, giraffes, flamingos, monkeys, turtles, etc just a few feet away from our van.
We would also have to give a 5 star rating to our guide Robert, who made our safari a magical one. He really knows the land and the animals and he is very knowledgeable. There wasn't a question he didn't know an answer to. He really tried hard to make our safari fun and one we would remember and cherish till the end of our lives. Robert especially knows all the secret spots for animal seeing. Having said that, I don't have to emphasize that with him on board we managed to see the Big five in one day! Especially the black rhino up close, approximately 3 meters from our van. Oh, did I mention that we also saw leopards mating? :). Even so close, Robert managed not to disturb the animals or make them feel threathened in any way. Unbelievable! Robert is simply The guy to drive you through Masai Mara. Period.
What else can we say? If you don't know which agency to select, you can't go wrong with Axis Africa Safaris - good and fair price, excellent service and unforgetable experience. Axis Africa Safaris, you know your business.

Great!
I reached Axis Africa Safaris looking for a viable option for a budget traveller like me and was not disappointed. They perform as promised, will pick you up from your accomodation and then drop you off after the safari is finished. Meals are included and all very good. Accommodation is in one good and comfortable camp. Best of all was the safari of course. Our guide, Alex, was wonderful and we were able to see all big five. Go ahead and book confidently!

Best Safari with the best driver!
I was looking safaris for a reasonable price and found Axis Africa. Because they're reviews were so good, we decided to book a safari thru them also. We had a 3-day Joining safari to Masai Mara. Solomon, our driver/guide was the best there can be, being everywhere something happened and did all he could to give as the best experience. Lennox always replies quickly to questions and all problems are being solved. We stayed in Lenchada Camp, this was also a superb experience for that kind of money. So everything was absolutely awesome. We'd like to thank Solomon again for such a great experience and help also, 'cause when coming back from Safari we had a problem with our next booking (apartement) and Solomon helped us out. Thank You again!
Also the people we joined Safari with were great, so we had a very good time!

Very Good & Reasonably Priced
I found Axis Africa Safaris while searching online for a reliable tour operator that provides reasonably priced safari tours. Through the first communications with them, I felt comfortable and excited to book a tour through them. Lennox is very responsive and will answer all of your questions regarding the tour. I booked a 4 day safari in Masai Mara and Lake Nakuru. Everything was well organized as promised, and I had the best time during this safari. Our driver Alex was very nice and was doing his best so that we can spot as many animals as possible. He taught some Swahili on the road. The accommodation in both Masai Mara and Lake Nakuru was very decent for this price. If I have anything to say about improving their services, I can suggest enhancing the condition of the buses especially since the road to Masai Mara is very rough. All in all, Thanks to Axis Africa, I had an amazing time in Kenya. If I go back to Kenya, I will definitely go on other safaris with them.
