The greatest moment in my life
We took a 3 day/2 night tour.
The first day we saw very few animals, but the driver tried very hard to show us the animals.
On the second day, we saw a lot of animals thanks to the efforts of the driver. We also enjoyed our visit to the border.
On the third day, we were able to go hiking thanks to enough safaris on the second day. We were accompanied by a Maasai tribe member. When we were about to leave, the driver asked us if we wanted to visit the Maasai, and when we said yes, he took us there even though it was unscheduled.
Overall it was a really good experience. It was beautiful enough to stay in tents. If I ever come to Kenya again, I will use your service.

Johny was excellent from the moment we met him until the end.
First, the communication with Axis was always top notch. We communicated with Lennox when planning and booking the safari. He always responded quickly to our questions. We had flight cancellations and Lennox was great with helping us shift dates and find our accommodations. He was always there to assist with everything.
We traveled from Nairobi to Naivasha to Nakuru before entering the Mara. Johny was an excellent driver and guide the entire trip. He was well respected among the other guides and in the Mara many guides were asking for his assistance.
We stayed at Lake Naivasha Simba lodge, Sarova Lion Hill, and finally Ashnil Luxury Camp in the Mara. All places were excellent. Great rooms and food.
Johny was able to guide us to the Big 5. It was evident he really cares about his job as a guide and has great respect for the animals and sanctuaries.
We are planning returning again in a few years to do another trip with Axis!

Reliable tour company
Our tour was a shared 4x4 vehicle and a 2-night 3-day tour with accommodation in lenchada camp. We were picked up from our hotel on time. Before the tour started, we paid a total of $680 for two people. Everything was as described. On the first day, we did a 3-hour safari until sunset. On the second day, we chose a safari to the depths of the masai mara for the whole day, and we did not do a village tour in masai mara. Because it would be unnecessary to make a short tour again on the 3rd day. On the 3rd day, we made a tour of the village of masai mara. We reached Nairobi at 16:30 in the evening. We did not have any problems with eating and drinking, but you can take food with you. The places we stopped to buy souvenirs were incredibly expensive. We got much nicer ones cheaper at the airport. I guess the tour is a bit dependent on the driver. Our driver was Khalifa. Thank you so much for seeing the big five.

Perfect option for a budget experience in Masai Mara
Strongly suggested if you are looking for a budget experience to enjoy the park at his best!
We went for the three days game-drive and the tour met the expectative. Kalifa, our driver and guide is certainly very expert and has a lot of contacts also with other rangers inside the park which is key in order to find the most interesting animals in the park. We saw lions (from veeery close) cheetahs, one leopard and a lot of elephants, giraffs and many other animals.
The accomodation was a simply tent camp but the tent are quite nice well equipped with a bathroom inside that was actually way more clean and nice that we expected. The staff was very kind
Despite some small problems (in any case part of the adventure), for instance we had some issue with the car (like a flat tire), I would strongly suggest to choose this agency if you are looking for a good experience at Masai Mara for a cheap price!

Safe, informative, exciting, Kevin
We did a 5day tour with KEVIN, masai Mara, masai village, hells gate, national park, boat trip, drive around lake. It was amazing... definitely recommend KEVIN, he has 10 years experience so the whole trip went off without any issues! He also was amazing at spotting the animals! We saw the big five in the first two days (even saw two different black rhinos even tho only 30 of them in two different parks), so knowledgeable was able to answer every question we threw at him for the five days, but also very chill and funny! I already have recommended this company and driver to my friends! Thank you for an amazing trip!

Jimmy is the best!
Everything went very smoothly. The communication with Lennox was super clear and fast so we knew exactly which time a driver would be picking us up from the hotel. Jimmy was our tour guide and he’s the best! Super friendly and accommodating, and he knows a lot about the park and the wildlife. He made sure we saw every animal there is to see: even a rhino! This was an unforgettable experience and we have Jimmy to thank.

Albert is amazing!!!
Albert was our driver and tour guide for the whole safari and I could not have asked for a nicer person.
Albert did all the possibles and impossibles for us to see all the animals, even putting his van into deep mud and risking getting stuck there while the rain kept pouring.
He was the perfect tour guide for us.
Thank you Albert
