Absolutely Worth it - recommended!
I did a 6 day Safari (Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru,Amboseli) I compared a lot of combinations and providers before I booked. I can highly recommend to choose mid range instead of low budget, it is worth it. Our guide Jack took care of us and made sure we are all happy all the time. I already recommended to my family to do the same safari with this provider, overall a breathtaking experience. So glad I booked it.

Extremely knowledgeable, charismatic, and very committed to his craft.
I cannot recommend this experience, company, and tour guide enough! We had several last minute changes and Axis Safari was professional (shout out to Monica!) and accommodating throughout the entire booking process. Raheem, our guide, was extremely knowledgeable and dedicated to getting us as close as possible. I have a unique background in wildlife conservation and he knew everything and more. I was very impressed! We saw so much wildlife within the first day and the experience progressed hour by hour. The service was exceptional— everything was taken care of on our behalf (including transportation and meals!) and the value was unmatched. Do yourself a favor and book with Axis!!!

Khalifa: The Master of the Safari, Where Every Moment Feels Like Magic
Khalifa doesn’t just guide you through the park—he OWNS it! From the moment we began our safari, it was clear we were in the hands of a true master. Khalifa’s knowledge of the park, its wildlife, and every hidden gem was unparalleled. It felt like the animals themselves had coordinated with him—lions, elephants, cheetahs, and even the most elusive creatures seemed to appear as if on cue.
Not only did Khalifa bring the park to life with his expertise, but his warmth, humor, and passion for nature made the experience unforgettable. Every moment was perfectly planned, yet it all felt so natural and effortless. From the breathtaking sunrise to the peaceful evening sundowners, everything was flawless.
Khalifa didn’t just give us a safari; he gave us a once-in-a-lifetime adventure we’ll never forget. If you’re lucky enough to have Khalifa as your guide, trust me—you’re in for a truly magical journey!

Excellent
We had a great experience on Safari with axis. Amazing communication and support prior to the trip from Lucy, who helped us find the safari that suited our time and budget the best. Sir Charles was a great guide, who made sure we saw all the animals we hoped for, great spots for pictures, answered our (many!) questions and made sure we had a great time overall! I have used Axis safari before, as I was recommended them from friends, and can only recommend booking with them!

Most helpful, higly recomended
I highly recommend Axis Africa Safaris for an incredible safari experience. Despite a few payment issues, the team was very understanding and accommodating. They confirmed my booking without hesitation and allowed me to settle the payment at the time of departure, which was a huge relief.
The safari itself was an unforgettable adventure, absolutely worth every penny. A special mention goes to our guide, John Mwangi, whose passion for his job was evident throughout the trip. He was not only kind and professional but also an exceptional driver who prioritized our safety at all times.
John’s keen eyesight was truly remarkable—he spotted hidden animals long before anyone else in the group noticed them. He went above and beyond to get us as close as possible to the wildlife, creating amazing opportunities for us to see the animals up close. If you want to see lions from the shortest possible distance, John is undoubtedly the guide to request.
John Mwangi was respectful, knowledgable and kind
The trip went as planned. John Mwangi is reliable and was happy to accommodate our needs when asked. He made us feel comfortable and made sure we got the most out of our experience. I’d recommend the tour to friends and family.

Excellent operator with a great safari experience
I recently went on a 3-day safari in the Masai Mara with Axis Africa Safaris, and it was an unforgettable experience! One of the best aspects of this safari was the price—compared to other companies, it was very reasonable and offered great value for money. Despite the affordability, the accommodation and the 4x4 Land Cruiser vehicle were top-notch, on par with much more expensive operators. The tent I stayed in was fantastic, with a comfortable queen-sized bed and warm covers—the best sleep I’ve had in weeks! It was also equipped with a personal shower that had warm water and a western-style toilet, which made the stay even more comfortable, all built into your own private tent.
The food at the campsite was delicious, offering a variety of local dishes served buffet-style, and there were plenty of plugs available to charge our devices, which was really convenient.
Our driver, Ken, was a real highlight of the trip. He was not only a skilled driver, navigating the rough roads smoothly and getting us to each destination on time, but he was also incredibly knowledgeable about the wildlife. Thanks to his expertise, we had the amazing luck of seeing a wide range of animals, including a rare sighting of two leopards! Some of the highlights were watching lion cubs with their mothers, seeing giraffes at sunset, cheetahs beginning a hunt, and witnessing lions feeding on a buffalo... and so much more. Ken had a keen eye for spotting wildlife and communicated effectively with other drivers to ensure we didn’t miss any key sightings. His friendly and fun personality made the experience all the more enjoyable.
Overall, this was an excellent safari, and I highly recommend Axis Africa Safaris to anyone looking for an affordable yet high-quality adventure in the Masai Mara.
