From the first contact to the end, Axis Africa operators were great in communicating and organizing.
I booked a 4 day Masai Mara and Lake Nakuru Safari with budget accommodation option. Our guide was Francis.
Communication with the main office as well with the guide from the first contact until the end was excellent.
Most important part of the safari is the amount of wild life you see during your trip. Francis went above and beyond to make sure that we could spot all the beauty of nature. I would also like to highlight that he is an excellent driver.
I highly recommend this trip.

Answer the game driver ranger at the lodge was amazing
Ruben my contact, who helped organize the trip, was very accommodating, had a lot of patience and was good at following up. The Ivory Tree Lodge accommodations was nice and the staff was friendly. The transfer shuttle on the way back to the airport was good but the one on the way to the lodge we arrived too early. It left at 530 am, we arrived 5 hours before check in and we had to sit around. The highlight of the trip was the game drives with the Ranger named Answer.

Perfect balance between adventure and comfort
Perfect experience: everything well organized from the pick-up to the end (thanks mister T and Daniel), incredible accommodations (beautiful lodge at Lake Manyara, very well organized tents - practically glamping) even inside the parks), meals a bit repetitive but always very good, long car trips but comfortable and above all, strong point, our guide Freddy (highly recommended), competent, passionate, very pleasant. In short, a 5 star experience

Responsive, welcoming, and super flexible in planning and tailoring the trip for us
The communication was clear. We wanted to upgraded rooms in our trip, and Dominic listed a bunch of options (like 10 of them) without me asking. Charles (our guide) was super adorable and helpful, and we managed to see all the big five any so many other species even though we went in December, the quiet season. Only downside was the car was a little old, but it makes sense for all cars because road condition in the safari is not optimal. Overall, the trip was a blast.
I inquired about 5 companies for our trip, and Kentau's pricing was the most reasonable, and it matched the price listed (for other companies the prices don't match, which was weird to me at first).

Abraham went above and beyond for us!
Unfortunately we didn't get to make our gorilla trek due to an unexpected pregnancy. However im giving a 5 star review because Abraham went above and beyond first planning the holiday with me to the finest details, and then worked just as hard helping me establish a refund due to having to cancel the trip.
All round it was the best experience I've had with any travel guides and I've travelled to over 15 countries.
Thank you to Abraham

Wonderful holiday
We did Masai Mara and Nairobi National Park, we spotted all the animals we expected to see. If you want to see them hunting, ideally you’d better be staying in a lodge inside the reserve so you start the game drive early in the morning.
We spent the rest of our time in Mombasa, snorkelling, dolphin watching, beach, water and air temps 33C°, no sharks or jelly fish. Just clear, safe and warm water.
The environment is safe and friendly, the food is good, we loved the street food, cheap and tasty. Uber and Bolt services are excellent and affordable.
Tropical fruits are generally very good when well chosen. Unfortunately watermelons are tasteless. We purchased them in 6 different places, all hopeless.
Madaraka train is an excellent service too.

Amazing once in a lifetime experience!
I booked my safari trip with MoAfrica and we opted for their 10 day luxury South African package. Everything was amazing and the support from the company was always available whenever we had questions. Tour guides were professional and a pleasure to interact with. We did the 4 day safari at Kapama River Lodge and it was a magnificent experience. The lodge is beautiful and you see so many animals just from the bush right in front of the restaurant and spa. Game drivers were incredible with abundant sightings of the big 5 and so much more. One of a kind experience all around!

I wholeheartedly recommend Shavi Tours..
Our experience with Shavi Tours and Safaris was unforgettable. We combined a Serengeti safari with a cultural tour of the Hadzabe and Maasai tribes. The cultural insights we gained were profound, and the safari was beyond our expectations. The accommodations were excellent, and our guide Justine went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable. I wholeheartedly recommend Shavi Tours for a seamless and enriching travel experience.
