It was a unique and incredible experience. I will never forget this trip. It was very good.
Excellent service and the tour itself was one of the best trips in my life. Our guide was excellent, Jack drives very well, explains everything and shows you all the animals you can see. If they come, go with Jack

Easy to arrange, reliable, friendly and knowledgeable
We made a last minute decision to book a safari and didn’t have much time to do any research. So we just trusted Axis and selected a tour that would cover the main things we wanted to do. It was really easy to arrange the tour with Lennox, he answered all my questions on what’s app and was super friendly. Arrived on time at agreed pick up in Nairobi and then off we went!! Our guide was Sir Charles, he was perfect for us, relaxed, easy going, full of knowledge and experience. We liked that he was happy to adapt to things we wanted to do, such as the chance to be outside the jeep at times, and to plan in relaxation time aswell. We don’t get chance to holiday together very often so it was good to spend time in the beautiful lodges aswell as in game drives. We saw some incredible sights, lions, leopard, cheetah, elephants, rhinos and many more. Seemed like Sir Charles had a secret knowledge of where to go because we always ended up at the right place at right time!! Unforgettable memories, a beautiful place and a great company with lovely friendly guide to do it with, thank you!

The operator has been excellent, wildlife was amazing, very safe.
We got the opportunity to do the Safari with Jack, he has been amazing, kind, and very knowledgeable. He speaks a little of Spanish too. On the emails I spoke with Lennox who answered everything on time, the accommodations, food and safari have been out of the world, hoping to be back soon. Best experience of my life

Francis is the best safari guide you could ask for
3 day safari as Masai Mara with Francis was amazing. We saw so many more animals than I expected, and some very close and personal. Once in a lifetime experience.

Very positive
I was pleasantly surprised by how the tour was organised. All facilities were very very decent for a budget safari, food was plentiful and tasty.
Also been v lucky with a guide John, who is worth a separate mention. Great guide, knows his stuff, very punctual and professional. Super cool man on a personal level. John, if you reading this, thanks for quality time and Swahili lessons

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!
