Amazing - once in a lifetime
I want to thank ROBIN for taking care of me and the group during the once in a lifetime safari trip from June 14-18. As a female travelling solo for the first time in Kenya, he really made me feel safe and comfortable! I love that my stuff was actually safe in the car and the accommodations especially since I was carrying my camera and telephoto lens for the first time. What I also loved was he always had water available which was great and much needed. This was my first safari so of course I'll never forget it and he is a part of that.
We saw 4 of the big 5: elephants, lions (lots of them), buffalo, and rhino. Just didn't see the leopard but we saw a beautiful cheetah! He made sure to try to make everyone happy --- stopped for the birdwatchers, the giraffe lovers, and just the general request take the amazing Masai mara scenery in --- thank you for stopping for the sunset!
We saw so many animals - it was like seeing them and learning about them for the first time. Truly a magical experience.
Thank you Robin for your cool personality and for the great adventure. Hope to see you again!

Why 4 stars instead of 5:
1. I hope the tour can be more accomodating to Muslims - one of the restaurants said that everything was halal except the chicken-- I would've eaten it by mistake if I hadn't asked. I was initially told that everything will be halal. A lot of hotels weren't aware of what halal was.... Not sure how this works...
2. Last hotel --- Chambai Safari in Navaisha-- had a glass window like blinds in the bathroom where anyone could see and look into the bathroom!! Please take note to not place any guests there until this is resolved as that's unacceptable. Rest of the accomodations were great!! Especially the resort with the massage -- Jennifer was amazing. The lenchada camp exceeded expectations --- clean - hot showers - decent regular food

Kenyan Adventure with Julias from Axis Africa
We were with Axis Africa. They were really professional. The guide cum driver cum caretaker cum Friend Julias was fantastic. He took care of me and my family really well. He had good knowledge about the animals and birds and on top of that he took great care of us. All the demands which were put forward to Julias he took care of that. He was very polite, with sense of humor and knowledge. We would highly recommend Julias to be part of Kenyan adventure.

Fred was absolutely amazing. A really talkative, informative, and kind person. Always smiling :)
Great service from start to finish. We went as a group of 8, and we thoroughly enjoyed it.
It was surreal seeing the animals, the way Kenyan people live, and the overall happiness of the country and its people.
Would 100% recommend this company to anyone thinking on going on this trip.

Committed to providing a good experience
The service provided was excellent, logistically they are punctual, they fulfill what they offer and I am very friendly. Jhonny, the guide, was very friendly and his interest in taking advantage of every moment to make our experience the best was evident. We had the opportunity to see many animals thanks to their commitment. The camp is very good, I felt very comfortable and the food was delicious. Everyone is very friendly.
I only have one point for improvement: I would have liked to have been consulted if we wanted to make separate payments with my friend, because only one was made to my card and that affected our trip planning.
Thank you for everything, I would definitely recommend you.

Amazing once in a lifetime experience that I'll never forget
During this 5 day experience, we got to visit 2 different lakes and the Masai Mara reservation. It was a truly amazing experience as we saw many kinds of exotic animals and birds. Our guide was amazing too. He made sure that we saw as many animals as we could, and also stopping so we could take good photos of both the amazing scenery and the animals.

An excellent experience in Kenya
I did the 6-day tour to Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru and Amboselli. Dixon was a very good guide, very willing to support the team, to explain in detail where we were, what we were seeing and what would follow. It was 6 days full of good experiences, lots of animals and knowledge. Thanks to Dixon for his patience and willingness.

Incredible safari from start to finish
Axis Africa Safaris are fantastic. I booked the five day safari to Maasai Mara, Lake Nakuru and Lake Naivasha. Everything was so well organised and the pricing was very competitive. My agent, Rita, was fantastic, answering every question I had very promptly. I had two guides on the tour and both were really great. Dennis was my guide for the first four days in Maasai Mara and Lake Nakuru. He made every effort to make sure we saw all the wildlife and were in the best position for pictures. He also told us so much about the animals and the nature reserve and looked after us so well. Dan was my guide in Lake Naivasha and he arranged a great boat trip for me and took me through Hell's Gate national park, telling me all about the park and the geothermal springs. Both drivers were always so friendly and happy to answer any question we had. I cannot recommend Axis Africa Safaris enough, everything was perfect.
