A truly amazing safari with Axis Africa Safaria and Driver Daniel Sururu
After many weeks of deliberation and throughly reviewing multiple safari operators I finally decided to go with Axis Africa Safaris - this decision that was not taken lightly, but one I am very pleased to say I did not regret.
The service provided by Rita at Axis Africa Safaris was fantastic. She promptly responded to all of my emails, addressed all my questions and concerns, and arranged an amazing safari for myself and my family. And to top it all, their prices were incredibly competitive.
When deciding which accommodation to select Rita provided detailed information regarding hotel options split by budget. We finally decided on Ashnil Mara Camp, Sarova Lion Hill (Lake Nakuru) and Naivasha Swela Lodge.
Ashnil Mara Camp was amazing - the tents were huge and very comfortable. The service and food were fantastic! We all throughly enjoyed our 3 night stay and particularly appreciated the hot water bottles which were carefully placed into our beds every night! The food was also good at Sarova Lion Hill and Swela lodge, but the rooms at Sarova lodge were rather small and in need of an upgrade.
When arranging the safari I specifically requested a Masi guide, and we were lucky enough to be allocated Daniel Sururu. Daniel was our dedicated driver for the six days and he was fantastic. His knowledge of the parks and wildlife within it was exceptional! On Day 1 of the safari Daniel asked each of us what we wanted from the safari and he did his upmost to make sure our expectations were met. And I am pleased to say that they really were and more! This included seeing loins taking down a buffalo, the big 5, the beginning of the great migration and much, much more! My husband is a keen photographer and bird lover, and Daniel was super good at pointing out the many species of birds in the Mara and Lake Nakuru. And as luck would have it, Daniel was also a keen photographer and appreciated the importance of positioning and lighting, so he would do his best to put his car in the optimal position for my husband to take a photo.
As part of the safari we had arranged a 2 hour boat ride on Lake Naivasha to see the many hippos and bird life the lake has to offer. Unknown to us, Daniel called ahead of our visit to arrange for a specific guide who he knew was very knowledgable about birds. The boat trip was amazing, even for those of us who were not bird lovers. I would strongly encourage anyone who has the time to go and visit this area.
Overall, we could not ask for anything more from Daniel, we felt completely safe with him and all times and he was really a truly an amazing guide (and driver) and if were fortunate enough to come back to the Masi Mara I would not want any other guide!
Thank you to Axis Africa Safaris for arranging our amazing safari and to Daniel for making our trip fantastic and so unforgettable - you really were the star of our trip!
Superb, Delivered Everything, Highly Recommend!
We are a group of 5 people who recently completed a tour with the great team of Jacmiya Safaris, travelling through the Great Mara, the Mara River, the Mara Triangle overlooking the Serengeti, and onward to Lake Naivasha for a boat and walking safari. From start to finish, this trip surpassed every expectation in every possible way.
Our guide, Francis, was exceptional throughout. He was consistently informative, polite, and attentive, ensuring every detail of our experience was thoughtfully managed. His deep knowledge of the region meant he always knew the best times and the best places to take us, giving us the flexibility to see all the wildlife we hoped for — lions, elephants, rhino, giraffe, zebra, hippo, buffalo, cheetah, and a beautiful variety of antelope, all up close. These unforgettable moments were possible because Francis understands the land and its rhythms with remarkable skill.
The Jeep was extremely comfortable, making long days in the bush enjoyable and relaxed. The accommodation arranged by Jacmiya Safaris was equally impressive: Sarova Mara Camp Masai Mara and Sopa Lodge Lake Nakuru were excellent, offering comfort, great service, and stunning views that added so much to the overall experience.
Jacmiya Safari’s communication was outstanding from beginning to end. Every question was answered promptly, every request handled with care, and every detail organised flawlessly. The company’s attention to detail was evident in every part of the journey — from logistics, to timing, to ensuring we were always comfortable, safe, and well looked after.
Francis himself kept the Jeep spotlessly clean, took immense pride in his work, and brought warmth and humour to each day. His professionalism, kindness, and patience made us feel completely supported throughout the trip. It is rare to encounter someone who blends expertise and genuine care so seamlessly.
Jacmiya Safaris delivered a safari that was not only memorable, but truly exceptional. The combination of superb guiding, comfortable transport, excellent lodges, flexible planning, and meticulous attention to detail created an experience we will treasure for a lifetime.
We cannot praise Jacmiya Safaris — and especially Francis — highly enough.

This is a once in a lifetime amazing and well organized experience.
We had an absolutely amazing time on safari with Jocky Tours. We did the 3 day tour to Maasai Mara and stayed at the Mara Sopa Lodge. Although it was a quick trip, it was absolutely magical. Mara Sopa Lodge was also a great place to stay - right in the middle of nature but with a great room and a delicious buffet. Jocky tours were very responsive via email and WhatsApp and everything was very organized/reliable.
Our guide, Raheem Mwema, was wonderful. He went out of his way to make sure we have a great experience. He always made us feel safe while driving and has a great fund of knowledge about all the animals. He was able to get up close to all the animals including the cheetah which was much more difficult. He has a great sense of humor too which is always a plus!
We would definitely recommend Jocky Tours, Mara Sopa Lodge, and Raheem to everyone! 10/10

Wonderful and memorable safari trip with family
My family and I had a very enjoyable and memorable trip which was booked with Africa Magical Scenery Tours and Safaris. Loved the entire experience and got to see many animals at all plaecs. The contact person Susan Felix was very responsive from the start and followed up daily on how each day went.
Our guide, Mike Mutunga was exceptionally good. Knowledgeable about the safaris and the animals, interactive with us, knew where to go and look for animals, very helpful. He was clear in his communication and enhanced our experience during this trip. He went to great lengths to ensure we got to see good sights and gave vantage points for photography. Seeing the 'Big Five' was what we hoped for and what we got.
The price was quite reasonable and all aspects were mentioned beforehand so no hidden surprises were there.
6 days was suitable time for the safaris as we covered 3 National parks with Game drives in all of them.
We felt June was a good time to visit as the weather was pleasant and clear most of the times so the animals sighting was amazing.
