Magnificient Safari Experience with Axis Africa
It was truly a remarkable experience to go with Axis Africa on safari. Everything was well organized, the hotels and accommodations were comfortable and transportation was sufficient. Most importantly, our driver Raymond made sure that we‘ve seen the best spots to observe the big five and much more.
100% recommend

Amazing time in Masai Mara
My party of 6 had an amazing time in Masai Mara. It was everyone’s first safari and I don’t think we could have asked for a better experience.
We had a great time in the park and saw far more animals than I had expected - multiple groups of lions, elephants and baboons, a leopard, a cheetah, and altogether everything I think we could have realistically expected to see.
The camp where we stayed was basic, but clean and safe. There was consistent power and hot water, and the food (including for vegetarians/vegans in our party) was delicious every meal.
Peter, our guide, brought the whole thing together. He was knowledgeable and prepared throughout the trip, and well-connected to other guides to find animal sightings (but also had an incredibly keen eye himself). Outside of the park, he got us through both the Nairobi traffic and bumpy backroads with ease.
When there was an issue (due to my error) with overpayment, the office team was very helpful and resolved it as soon as they were able.

It’s an amazing tour. It’s much better than I expected.
This tour is managed well. It’s much better than I expected. I can definitely say it’s a valuable safari tour. Our tour guide was Steve, he is good at communicating and has good driving skills.
I really enjoyed this tour.

Axis Afria:a excellent Safari company with good guides
Thanks to Axis Afria, this trip was perfect. First of all, I want to thank Cynthia for not getting tired of coordinating the itinerary and details with me, and for giving professional and patient answers to all the questions I asked, helping me overcome the difficulties of language communication and unfamiliarity with the situation. Later, I learned that Cynthia was the boss. As a boss, she can do things so personally. How can such a company not be trusted? Next, I want to thank my tour guide Khalifa the most. His serious and responsible attitude and professional ability made the extraordinary charm of the African savannah presented to us without reservation. Here are a few examples: Khalifa's ability to find animals is outstanding. Whether it is day or night, no matter how far away, he can find the whereabouts of animals in the first time. We are all amazed by this. I believe that people who often read the comments section of Safaribooking will think that this is just so-so. Isn't this a basic skill for a Safari tour guide? Indeed, so the key point I want to talk about is in the latter part; Khalifa's professional ability is reflected in his ability to predict the direction of animals in advance. He often moves in an unknown direction when others are still waiting in place. As a result, we arrived in front of the animal's moving route in advance and found the best observation position. Only then did other cars come after hearing the news; Khalifa's serious and responsible attitude also touched me. He has an extraordinary persistence. On our last afternoon in Masai Mara, we didn't see the expected zebras because of the influence of Maasai grazing. Even we thought it was better to forget it. He still persisted in looking around. We even thought that he would not let us go back to the hotel if we couldn't find zebras today [grin]. In the end, although we didn't find the zebras, we unexpectedly saw the scene of cheetahs hunting unsuccessfully. Khalifa's driving skills are first-class, which makes us feel the freedom of wild Africa. Whether there is a road or not, whether there is a turbulent river or a bumpy wilderness ahead, there is always a smooth road ahead of us. Finally, I want to say that Khalifa is a loving, meticulous and humorous person. He suggested that we give the unfinished hotel lunches to the poor people we met on the road. He carefully prepared a folding stool for my old mother to use as a footrest when getting on the bus. The laughter along the way was inseparable from his participation. At the end, the whole family was reluctant to leave like a family parting. In short, this was a perfect trip, this is a company worth recommending, and Khalifa is definitely a tour guide worth choosing.

Excellent
I got in touch with Lennox, he helped with the entire trip plan. The response from him was amazing.
Our tour guide was Richard and we had an amazing experience for game drives. We spotted all the big 5, he understood what we love and helped us cover all the experiences and activities on time.
We also did bike ride at hells gate and nature walk at crescent island.
Overall the best experience ever, fully recommended.

The best safari organisation.
Axis safari made our safari trip so easy and comfortable. The service was beyond our expectations. From the day of consultation, the agent Lucy helped us with any information I want to know with quick response. Lucy also let us deposit our luggage for few more days as we are travelling to other more cities in the country after the safari trip. This was so kind of Axis safari. Out driver cum tour guide Evan was so helpful, very responsive and knowledgeable person. He made our safari trip so comfortable and he knows what he is doing and has knowledge about the animals and the areas. Overall we are lucky that our trip was handled by Axis safari. And wishing the team and axis safari more success and services for many many years to come . 🙏🏻 from Indian and Sweden .

Peter was very knowledgeable and determined to help us find as many animals as possible
Peter provided an excellent service from start to finish. His great driving skills kept us on track no matter the terrain. When we entered the masi Mara park he ensured we had plenty of time to soak in each animal, learn about it and worked tirelessly to ensure we saw as much as possible! I kept note of as many animals as possible and counted 45 in just one day! Including lions, lionesses and cubs, elephants, hyena, zebra, cheater, baboons, leopard, giraffe and rainbow birds. We couldn’t have asked for more. Peter found us a spot by the river to eat lunch while watching the hippo and crocodile. The accommodation was lovely, food was outstanding and vegan inclusive!
Would book again in a heartbeat!
