Best tour (and guide) ever !!
I did the tour for 2 nights(3 days) and it was definitely worth the money and I had such a good time. Our driver and guide James was absolutely the best!! Thank you James for making the trip even better. I had the luck of sharing the safari van with nice fellow travellers and we all connected so well and overall had awesome time together.
If you’re looking for a safari experience that you won’t forget, I can’t recommend Axis enough (and ask for James !!).
Thank you guys!

Very helpful and well organised
Two of us booked on to the 5 day budget camping safari - Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru, Lake Naivasha and Hell's Gate National Park. We were in a vehicle with 5 others on the same trip. The whole experience was excellent. Clear, prompt communication beforehand and any questions answered by email. Khalifa was a great guide, ensuring we were always happy and helping with things like exchanging money and where to buy souvenirs. The accommodation was all excellent - half the nights in a very large tent and the other half in incredible lodges with swimming pools. Lovely range of activities - game drives, cycling, boat trip. On the game drives Khalifa was great at getting us good views of the animals and we spent a long time in the parks. Would definitely recommend - nothing about it felt 'budget'.

Amazing Experience
We had an excellent experience starting from first contacting Eric Lennox, getting the various options, suggestions, before finalizing on the itinerary. Advance nominal. Balance on reaching Nairobi.
The Guide/Driver Jimmy was simply superb. Very skilful, knowledgeable, extremely courteous, making sure you are comfortable and punctual. He becomes family by the end of the trip. Will recommend Axis and Jimmy for your Safari trips

Excellent Trip
We had an excellent trip with Axis Safari. Our driver/guide Albert took great care of us. The van was clean everyday and he took great care to get us close to the action. The accommodation was all clean and adequate for a budget to midrange choice. We would recommend.

Excellent and Well Organized Trip
About Axis Safari - I had an excellent trip with Axis Safari. All thanks to Mr. Lennox Eric. He is an amazing guy who was available throughout and help me finalize the itinerary with different price options. He guided me on what is best for me.
About the Trip- I booked the trip for Masai Mara, Nakuru, Naivasha, and Amboseli in a 4X4 land cruiser private for me. the vehicle had a pop-up roof that allowed us to watch the animals safely during the game drives. We had a comfortable stay at the hotel. The food menu was OK and has a local flavor with an option of some Indian menu items.
About the Tour Guide - Our tour guide/driver was Mr. Jack for Masai Mara, Nakuru, and Lake Naivasha. He is an amazing guide and driver. We saw some amazing animals and scenery. He was good at finding the animals and positioning the land cruiser at just the right spot for great photos. He is very friendly and knowledgeable about the animals too. He has good knowledge of flora and fauna. He has arranged my last-minute BBQ at Masai village and had an amazing experience in Masai Village. While returning, he took us to meet his mother and spent a few minutes seeing his village and treated us as a Family. He is wonderful and a very jolly person. Thanks Jack for this wonderful and memorable trip to Masai Mara. I will surely visit again with Jack
About the Tour Guide - During our Amboseli trip, Jack was already booked with some other customer, so Mr. Yasin was my tour guide/drive. He is very good, and helpful guy. He is also amazing in finding animals and he took us to different areas in Amboseli and saw many animals around.
About Nairobi – Mr. Abraham was my tour guide to show me the city in a day. He took me to places and discover the city with him. He is very humble and fantastic person.
I strongly recommend Axis Safari for all your Kenya Safari needs. They are honest, helpful, and trustworthy people.

Clear communication and well organised
I went on a solo trip to Kenya and I had booked Safari through Axis . It was a well organised safari and we could enjoy some of the rarest moments like live hunting. Thanks to Mr. Linnox Eric for being available throughout the booking process and being reachable throughout the Safari. I really appreciate Mr. Andrew who was our tour guide/ driver was very cooperative and professional. They really took good care of me when I caught cold just a day before leaving from Kenya. Thanks to the whole team for making my solo trip comfortable and memorable. I highly recommend Axis Safari for both solo are group travellers.

Quality service
We went around with friends and we were very satisfied with the work of Axis Africa Expedition. Getting in touch by wathsapp was very easy and efficient. The guide "alex" was always attentive and allowed us to have a great time. I advise Axis africa. Thanks Alex for the trip

We saw 4 of the big 5
A great experience! We spent 3 days 2 nights in Masai Mara with Axis Africa Expedition & Safaris and was incredible. Our guide Peter could find and show us 4 of the big 5. We saw also a lot of animals. We choosed the Rhinos camp to spent the night and was a very clean and confortable accommodation. Lennox helped us to book the train tickets for the next stop of our trip and was very kind helping us the rest of our trip by WhatsApp. I absolutely recomend this safari with them.

Good quality for the price
The driver was pretty kind and dedicated, he did his best to show us as many animals as possible.
The car, although was quite big, was not actually very confortable, and it is something to keep in mind since you are spending lots of hours in there. Even if there are plug-ins to charge your phones, none of them worked at any time, so you'd better bring your bankpower.
When arrived to the tents, it is good enough, don't have big expectations, the hot water can take up tp 15 minutes to come and there is just one plug-in in the tent. But also, keep in mind where you are, good thing: internet connection available.
The restaurant is actually poor, not much choice and not good quality, so you'd better bring some snacks with you just in case.
The visit to the massaai village can be tricky, you find out, only when you arrive, that you have to pay 1000 KCH entrance fee, they show you how locals live and they ask you for more money, then they take you to the community school and again they ask you for more money and so on... be careful.
In general view, it is worthy as long as you don't have great expectations.
