The Guide was Fantastic
Booking process was fast and easy. Service was excellent, we were picked up on time and on trip was a success we saw so many amimals. Our Safari driver took his time especially when we wanted photos etc I would totally recommend Axis Safaris.

Fantastic
Axis Africa Safaris was absolutely fantastic! We had such an amazing experience we will never forget. John Gichuhi the safari guide was just an outstanding gentleman who went out of his way to make sure we had the best time and experience of our lives. He was very patient and took his time to make sure we got all the photos we wanted. We never felt rushed at all and he answered all the questions we had, even the silly ones lol. John was also always on time picking us up and dropping us off to the lodge. I also loved our vehicle which had 7 of us in it but you didn't feel crowded, we all sat in the vehicle comfortably. Only thing that could of been better was the food, maybe a change of menu instead of serving the same thing daily. But the overall Safari was excellent and we will definitely book with Axis Africa Safaris on the next trip. Anyone going on a Safari in Kenya go with these guys and if you can ask for John Gichuhi to be your guide.

The tour was very good organized by highly competent guides.
We met Jimmy and Kevin, our guides, at the office of the Axis Africa Expedition & Safaris Company. From the first moment we felt in good and competent hands to tackle the hike at 4985m to the Lenana Peak of Mount Kenya - especially the altitude was a challenge for us. Jimmy told us a lot about the nature in the mountains and he made sure we could handle the special conditions in this high mountains. His team (Samuel, Patrick and Simon) prepared very good dishes during the trek and we were surprised every day by the richness of Kenyan cuisine in the mountains. We also like to sleep in a tent and can recommend this for this mountain hike.

Great Safari in Maasai Mara National Reserve - Solo Traveller
The Maasai Mara Safari with Axis Africa Safaris was a wonderful experience from start to end – including transportation, accommodation, meals, and guide!
As a solo traveler, I joined a group of 6 other international travelers on a last-minute safari of the Maasai Mara National Reserve. The booking was seamless: Lennox, the contact at Axis, was very responsive and available to clarify any question, and the payment was through a verified system.
The safari lasted 3 days and 2 nights, with accommodation in a tented camp close to the park. The camp was clean with all essential services (including in-tent toilets) and the staff ensured a welcoming environment, including prompt availability to accommodate any dietary needs.
Our Safari guide, Joshuar, was a great driver and game-spotter! He provided thorough insights into animals’ behavior and he was able to scout the park’s residents in the most unexpected locations. We had 3 game drives (one evening, one full day, and one early morning drive) and he ensured we had an extensive view of the animals, driving as close as possible while respecting their space. He was readily available to answer our questions and he sorted all organizational aspects for us.
I strongly recommend this provider and this tour to anyone travelling to Kenya – whether solo, with friends or even with family!

Amazing experience guided by amazing people
Such a great experience! We ended up seeing so many different animals, including 4 of the big 5 only missing the rhino.
Our driver Jack was such a nice guy. He was so polite and answered all our curious questions!

This was an amazing experience!!
We were originally supposed to fly into Nairobi the day before the 5-day Safari begun, but our flights delayed and we arrived in Nairobi at 5:20am, barely 2 hours before we were originally supposed to be picked up from the hotel.
Axis arranged airport pick up which went smoothly, the cab arrived just about 15minutes after we called Lennoxx (our focal point). We had all our bags from our previous trip and were quiet worried they wouldn’t fit in the Safari car but Axis were very helpful - some of our bags were stored safely in their office and space was created in the trunk for our remaining large bags.
We booked the Land Cruiser (which is definitely a better option for the Safari) which seats 8 people including the tour guide - our family size was 7 (including the tour guide). We set off around 8:20am and immediately we took off, I knew it was going to be a fun trip - Kikitu our tour guide got us started with jokes and we couldn’t help but laugh though we were very sleepy.
