Unforgettable moments
A true adventure, an incredible experience with lots of unforgettbale memories. A childhood dream came true when you see the animals roaming on endless prairies. especially when you get near the Big 5 which we managed to spot during the safari... all that within only 4 days with Axis. Lennox was helpful from the very first moment, he patiently replied every question I had. The Safari was very professionally organised.
Our driver Richard seems quite experienced despite his young age. He always did his best to create a good atmosphere in the group and to give us the best possible angle to take photos of the animals. He speaks Russian pretty well too which was a really nice surprise. We - a Vietnamese and a Kenyan talked in Russian with each other which was really something else lol.
My roommate or my tentmate to be exact from Japan was very nice and pleasant too. Overall an unforgettable experience I had there. Thanks Axis and огромное спасибо, Ричард!

Great 3-day Safari
I went on a 3-day tour with other 6 people I didn't know before the tour. I hoped the people on this tour would have the same intentions as me and I was right, we all got along really well. Our driver, Edward, was very good at spotting animals and at communicating with other drivers to find out where animals where at. He would also get very close to the animals and stay there for enough time for us to enjoy the scenery and take good photos. The second day, Edward recommended us to go to lake Naivasaha instead of doing a quick morning safari ride, and so we did. It was an enjoyable 1-hour boat ride that allowed us to see plenty of animals (from hippos to zebras to many birds) . The accommodation in tents was decent, and food was good and plenty.
Lennox was great at communicating with me before the trip, and his timely responses were great for planning the trip. Overall, it was a wonderful experience and I would recommend it to anyone.

WONDERFUL and VERY GREAT adventure
We visit the Safari last week tru the help of Mr Eric Lennox.
Booking your safari trip is not easy specially if you do not know anybody in Africa. So I browse the internet and found a good review about Axis Africa Safari and it is recommended by previous customer so I tried contacting this office. Turns out that everything is easy and Mr Lennox is easy to talk to and always ready to response to your queries.
We booked 6 day Safari and we had a very wonderful experienced. Great to see wild animals and plus we think we came to perfect weather. But According to the guide- the migration of the wildebeest and other animals is between July to October. So if you want to see more animal it is better come to these month so you will be able to see more animals on the field.
We saw many zebras and gazelle's and smallest antelope, elephant and we even see bat eared fox and other foxes, lions, cheetah's and leopard around and it was so so good to see them in person living in the wild.
Clothes- you can wear any clothes of your preference.
Camp- We stayed in Lenchada camp in Masai Mara for 2 nights where we experience the hospitality of the locals. The other lady looks like she is angry all the time but inside she is really kindhearted woman. The other camp are also great and they met our expectations. In Amboseli park we stayed in Kimana camp for one night and I had to upgrade from Kimana camp to Kibo camp for the second night.
Kibo camp is great experience and they even have restaurant and swimming pool and bar where you can have a drink and relax after a long day drive from safari. They also have wifi which is very important (to update your facebook and blogs) and for the cost I think it is reasonable.
Our driver name is John. He is the one who drives us for 6 days in the safaris and I would say that he is well trained and well mannered tour guide and driver. He speaks English fluently and he is easy to talk to. Because we visit safari with our big camera's, often time I had to ask John to stop the car and stop the Engine (when in safari) to avoid shake and blur for my photo and he always answer to my bidding :)
The result of course we are happy because we get the photo that we wanted.
For this great experienced, I would like to say big Thanks to Axis Africa Safaris team for giving us great experienced. I would recommend that they should put "Wi-fi" on the vehicle so the tourist will have access on the internet during the travel like other safaris van do.

The greatest experience! I highly recommend!
We had the greatest experience with Axis Africa Safaris. We went for a 4 day private safari from Nairobi to Amboseli and Tsavo East and finished in Diani Beach. Our guide, Joshua is a great person - very knowledgeable, experience and patient to all our questions. For the first 2 days there was also a cook, Fred who was traveling with us and preparing our meals - it was the most delicious food we had in Africa (and we visited a few good restaurants during our trip). The communication with Lennox before the safari was also very pleasant and the trip was organized very well. I would give 6 stars if it was possible! Thank you Axis Safaris!

It was amazing. Very patient. Excellent value for money.
Lennox kept in touch with me. He ensured that my dietary needs were catered to. The tour was affordable. Our guide, Amos, was simply amazing. We were able to see all the animals except the rhino. He ensured we got an authentic masai village experience. I would definitely recommend them to anyone.

WONDERFULL
It was great!!!Even with a big rain in the night, the driver bring us back to our hotel safely. And the day after we have seen a lot of animals very close of them. This tour operator is well cheaper than the others and very professional. All the tour operators offer the same service but with different prices and this one is very cheap. Don't hesitate. best regards.

Considerate and knowledgeable guide for an amazing tour!
A wonderful experience on the 4-day tour to the Masai Mara and Lake Nakuru. Our guide, Evans, did an outstanding job taking care of us and was extremely knowledgeable about the animals and the area. We had plenty of time to see the big animals as well as many birds and they were all spectacular. The lodging was very nice and the food was good. Overall a great safari!
