Andrew is a kind, fun, responsible and not least an adaptive guide. See you next time Bombay!
Our guide Andrew was always thinking about the best for us, kindly checking in on us and having conversations with us about where we wanted to go and when. Also the guide had good contact with other guides around, so he kept getting updates on where to find the animals.
One day we had found the lions, Andrew got a message on the radio and suddenly we were driving hurrily towards something. He seemed very eager, and finally we saw why. We got to see the rare black rhino.... twice!
Nothing bad to say about Axis.

Professional, reliable, flexible and fun
He was a good ambassador to his country. Our driver Johnny was reliable always on time or early. He delivered above and beyond our expectations.
He had a good sense of humor. He expressed patience with our three children on the long safari drives. His knowledge of the animals was on point. He spotted everything we needed to see. We saw the big five and more …
Highly recommend him as a safari driver with a young family. We always felt safe while having fun at the same time.
Axis helped us with our visa processing in a very professional manner. Overall, they were professional and easy to communicate with.
We were looking for an activity with our young family where we would be together, and the children wouldn’t be on their phones all the time. This was perfect. Lots of happy family memories were made this week.

Epic safari, varied terrain, excellent sightings and reliable knowledgeable guides
Axis delivers! Axis did a great job from start to finish. Lennox was quick to reply to my initial query, as well as clear, fair, flexible and helpful throughout, including when we encountered issues with our visa. Johnny was a fantastic guide, who worked hard to ensure we had the best safari possible. He was reliable, knowledgeable, patient with our family of five and good company for 6 days in four different reserves. He made sure we had great sightings, including two leopard sightings, 3 cheetah sightings and lots of lions. We covered a lot of incredibly varied terrain at Samburu, Aberdare, Lake Nukuru, and Maasai Mara. Such an amazing experience and would highly recommend to anyone. Overall, the value for money, reliability and tour itself met and exceeded our expectations. May Axis continue to offer this service!

An amazing experience with a lot of extras.
The booking itself was easy, reliable and trustworthy. We didn't have to wait long for answers to questions and inquiries from our side.
The service was amazing. Especially our guide was unbeatable. Ask for Jimmy if you want great service, security, reliability, and a very high level of knowledge and expertise. He is like an old friend to us and we will miss him dearly.
The car we went in was perfect. Room, comfort, a great view into all directions and amenities galore.
The value for money is great. Even if we only got what was advertised, we would be completely satisfied. But we got a lot more. Several extras were offered, and we got to decide individually what we wanted to partake and what not. We saw all the animals, got amazing photos close up and all the info we needed and wanted, with personal hints and knowledge always at our disposal. We also felt absolutely at ease every second of the trip.
The locations we saw were also to of the notch. From very field like in a tented camp to very nice hotels, we had it all. And when we weren't chatting from amazing sight to amazing sight, we socialized with Jimmy or head the time to finally so ask the things that we usually don't get to do because of stressful jobs.
To summarize, if you want the safari of your life, book here and ask for Jimmy.

Safari with Jimmy - what a wonderful experience!
Our safari to Masai Mara and Nakuru NP was an unforgettable experience. All expectations were met. The Masai camp where we stayed close to the Masai Mara was basic, as expected, but a unique experience. As we booked a group safari, we (3 persons) were part of a larger group of 8 people. The other guests were not as interested and a bit difficult to deal with - so next time we'll book a private safari. However most of this was made up by the skills, care and trust we had in our guide and driver Jimmy. He genuinely looked after us, did his best to provide us with an unforgettable safari experience, with great views and very confortable driving. If I'ld come back to Kenya, I would definitely ask again for him to guide us around!
The part to Nakuru NP was definitely worth the extra day!

The operator is reliable, easy to deal with and flexible.
We had a great time in Masai Mara and Nakuru NP. Our expectations were oversuceeded as we enjoyed beautiful scenary and got to see fascinating animals. We were lucky to see a great variety of wildlife closeby. Jimmy was the perfect guide for this trip as he was well informed about the parks, the wildlife and in general made sure that everyone had a great time and enjoyed themselves. I would highly recommend requesting him as a guide for the tour - he is also a highly skilled driver and made us feel save and comfortable the whole 4 days. You get great value for your money!

Neat organisation
We had a great budget safari experience for 3 days in Masai Mara. I booked the tour very spontaneously a day before, but got very fast replies. Francis was a very friendly and funny tour guide and I was lucky to be in a very lovely group. The jeep fitted comfortably all 7 guests. I was staying in the Rhino camp, with simple tented rooms or small cottages and very nice staff.
Just be aware that it's best to pay in cash, since there will be an extra fee on credit card payments.

Hardworking, energetic, and passionate
Our tour guide, Johnny clearly had a lot of experience, and was highly skilled and knowledgeable. He knew the names of all the animals and explained all of their features. His driving was also great and we did not get stuck at all! Thanks to him we managed to see all of the animals in the big 5 and saw many animals such as lions, elephants, rhinos and many more animals up close. I would definitely book again.

Very good
We really enjoyed our 3 nights in Kenya. Julious looked after us very well. We felt very safe with him. He had a great knowledge of the animals and the plains. Would highly recommend.

Magnificent Masai Mara
Lucky to have stumbled upon Axis Travel. Right from beginning dealing with Lennox has been easy, as he is concise and precise in his responses. He proactively juggled our itinerary to an avoid safari rally which would have dampened our experience. We were also fortunate to have Francis assigned as our tour driver. He is passionate about his job which is reflected in his demeanor. And thanks to him we covered the Big 5 in the wild.
