They were accommodating, entertaining, and knowledgeable.
I am living in Malawi and my girlfriend is in Chicago. She had never been to Africa before, so for her 29th birthday we decided to meet up in Kenya for the Masai Mara safari experience (rated number 1). We had high expectations coming in, but they were blown through the roof with Axis Africa Safari tours. I had communicated with Lennox weeks before to prepare a surprise birthday celebration for her. He was absolutely willing and very happy to help out and even suggest some ideas of what to do. I couldn't be more thankful as he had a cake made just for her as well as a bouquet of flowers and they had me surprise her with everyone else around in the evening following dinner. It made the trip even better. That being said, the guides we had were very knowledgeable and willing to go the extra mile to accommodate our needs and wants. We managed to see everything except the rhino, but more reason to come back. I'd highly recommend booking a tour with Axis Africa as their bundle packages are very thorough, fulfilling and definitely won't break the bank.
Cheers to next time!

Best experience
If you love animals and would like to see them in their natural habitat, then do this Safari.
Five days safari - Masai Mara, Nakuru, Naivasha. Masai Mara is the absolute best do do when in Kenya. The safari was amazing, we saw all the animals we wanted to see very close. Our driver, Kalifa, was the best. He cared deeply about the animals and the people, giving us tones of stories that happened to him.
To be honest after reading some comments, we were a bit afraid about the hotels and the food we would have during the safari, but it was actually very good.
I highly recommend this Safari and ask for Kalifa if you want to have the best experience.

Very Good
Axis Africa Expedition & Safaris organised an excellent 3 day Masai Mara Safari. Alex (fondly called Papa Alex by our group) is a superb guide. Always smiling always cheerful. We had an excellent game drive, even after sighting the big four he didn't slow down but drove round the park to show as as much as possible.
The Lenchada Tourist Camp where we stayed was also very clean and the food was quite good. If only they could provide us wifi it would have been superb.

Fantastic experience!
We did the 5 day Masai Mara - Nakuru - Naivasha private tour. Absolutely loved it and would highly recommend it.
It was very smooth booking through Axis, they came to meet us at our hotel in the morning to pick us up for the start of the tour.
Our friendly guide Johny was very knowledgable and went above and beyond to ensure we saw the best of Kenya’s wildlife, which included all of the big 5.
He also did an incredible amount of driving which was much appreciated.
We stayed at three different hotels, the first and last were fantastic and provided great rooms and food, although the middle one in Nakuru food and facilities were not quite as good.
We had a boat trip in Naivasha across the Lake which was brilliant to see all the wildlife as well as visiting a Masai village just outside the Mara which was a great experience.
We also paid ($30USD) extra to go on a guided cycle through Hells Gate park in Naivasha which involves cycling amongst buffalo, zebra, giraffes, impala and warthogs - this was an amazing experience to be up so close to the animals.
Overall, we would definitely recommend this tour. Everyone we met along the way ensured we had the greatest experience and would always go the extra mile to ensure we had the best time.

Jack, the safari-meister, exceeded all of my family’s expectations.
Thank you Axis Africa Safaris for the 6 Day “It’s a Wild World out There” tour. From our safari guide-meister Jack to Chef Daisy, you have an amazing team. The African people were so patient, kind, and courteous to all 7 of our family members.
Jack, our safari guide-meister for the week, went above and beyond to show us the animals living at Lake Naivasha, Cresent Island, Lake Nakuru, and the Masai Mara. Oh, and I highly recommend the sunrise hot air balloon ride and the champagne breakfast out on the reserve.

Just an incredible experience, for a very competitive price, we just loved every single piece of it
We booked the tour a couple of months before departing, not having much experience about Safaris. The tour that was described sounded really good and we were actually surprised by the good price. Ultimately the trip was just exceptional, even better than what we would have imagined. The guide, Yasin, was perfect and put so much effort into showing and explaining us everything. The car is very comfortable and the accommodations with the food are really great too. Last but not least, the organization of the whole trip was outstanding, everything was taken care of perfectly.

Amazing
Amazing price for what was provided. We were able to see the big 5 in one day thanks to our guide. However, our guide wasn't too happy that we opted for the game drive on day 3 (as mentioned in the itinerary) instead of going to the masai village. Nevertheless, we had a great time, definitely recommend going with this company!

Excellent trip and great value for money.
We booked a 3 day budget camping trip and were pleasantly surprised as to the quality of the trip and campsite.
On our first day of safari, due to the incredible driving by our tour guide Ken, we saw all of the big 5 up close within the first morning. Ken ensured we had the best game drives pointing out every possible animal we could find along with lots of interesting facts about them.
We stayed in Lenchada camp which were permanent tents, with solid beds and a full bathroom attached to each tent. The camp and the food was lovely and really added to a great trip.
Highly recommend Axis Africa Safaris, all the staff but especially Ken and Lennox could not have done more to make the trip brilliant. They both went out of their ways to make sure all our group were happy and had the best experience.

Everything was really good
I went with my family for a 4 days safari. We spent the first 3 days in Masai Mara and the last one in Lake Nakuru national park. The safari was simply amazing and everything was perfectly planned. Our driver Khalifa was perfect in everything, a nice, kind and funny guy that brought us everywhere and let us discover all the things you should not miss in the park. Overall we were very happy, I totally recommend it !!
