An Unforgettable VIP Safari & Zanzibar Experience with Madini Africa Adventure!
My wife and I recently returned from an incredible 11-day private safari and beach trip to Tanzania, organized by Madini Africa Adventure, and we couldn't be happier with our experience! The entire trip was arranged at a true VIP level from start to finish.
From day one, the level of professionalism, care, and attention to detail was top-notch. A massive, heartfelt thank you goes to Benaiah Chaulah, our sales manager and main point of contact. Benaiah is an absolute lifesaver and a true professional. Before we even arrived, she went above and beyond for us—literally going in person to the immigration office early in the morning to solve an urgent visa issue on our behalf, saving our entire trip!
Beyond making our anniversary trip seamless, Benaiah surprised us with a first-class birthday gift and celebration, which was such a thoughtful, personal, and heartwarming touch!
A special thank you goes to our extraordinary safari guide and driver, Eric! Eric's eagle eyes, vast knowledge of the parks, and endless patience allowed us to experience the absolute best of Tanzania's wildlife. Thanks to him, we saw the Big Five—including rare black rhinos, leopards up close, lions, and the Great Migration!
Every single detail—from the private game drives, the stunning Hot Air Balloon ride, to our top-tier resorts in Zanzibar—was perfectly coordinated.
If you are planning a trip to Tanzania, look no further than Madini Africa Adventure. Ask for Benaiah and request Eric as your guide for a VIP experience of a lifetime. Asante sana, Benaiah, Eric, and the whole team, for an unforgettable adventure!
5/5 – Highly recommended!

Kind and helpful
Daisy from Bonfire was extremely helpful! She was very available, especially when I was planning from a different timezone and responded to my questions. The organization for the safari was also great. I stayed at the Ol-Moron tented camp and the staff were lovely, the rooms were very clean and comfortable, and the safari drives were amazing. Highly recommend!

Amazing Safari Experience
This truly was a trip of a lifetime with Lion King Adventures. One of the most important things for your trip will be your Safari Guide and we could not have asked for anyone better than John. With him we were able to see the Big 5, the Ugly 5, the Great Migration, Migration Crossing at the Mara River, and so much more. We visited Tarangire, Central and Northern Serengeti, Ngorongoro, and lastly Lake Manyara. John was always willing to take pictures with us and really worked hard to make sure we were always safe and happy. One very important thing was seeing how friendly John was with the other Safari drivers - he always greeted others kindly and it was great to see him very willing to help another guide/group in need and it just as great to receive help and friendliness from other guides/groups as well. It really enhanced our experience having a guide with such a good heart. (Special shout out to Paul with Matoke Tours and Benjamin with Lion King Adventures for their kindness)
Lion King Adventures has it's own accommodations in Central Serengeti called "Nyota Serengeti" (which means Serengeti Star, btw) and one of our very few regrets was not staying here longer. Nyota truly felt like a luxury in the middle of the Serengeti - we had running hot water, amazing meals, wifi (about as good as you can expect being so remote), a pool, a spacious room, indoor/outdoor shower, a deck and also you can (sometimes) very clearly hear lions and hyenas very nearby. The staff there were the nicest of all of our accommodations the whole trip. Our friend Isaya escorted us to and from our tent each morning and night, armed with the necessary equipment to keep predators away.
I was very interested in learning as much Swahili as I could while I was there and John very kindly helped me with this goal - he always would find interesting words or phrases that I could learn that were related to Safari and he was such a friendly teacher to also encourage me to use the new words. It was such a short time there but it felt so much longer and we didn't want it to end; we are legitimately so sad for the trip to be over. This will certainly not be the last time we visit Tanzania. We love this country and will miss Tanzania, the Senrengeti, and our brother and friend, John.

Outstanding 8-Day Family Safari in Kenya with AXIS
Our family of six has just returned from an unforgettable 8-day safari across Kenya, visiting Lake Naivasha, Lake Nakuru NP and Maasai Mara, and we honestly could not have asked for a better experience.
From the very beginning, AXIS demonstrated exceptional professionalism, organization, and customer care. Every aspect of the trip was perfectly coordinated, allowing us to relax and fully enjoy the adventure. The itinerary was well balanced, combining incredible wildlife encounters with stunning landscapes and super comfortable accommodation, making it ideal for a family safari.
The highlight of the trip was undoubtedly our driver and guide, Khalifa. His professionalism, knowledge, and experience elevated the entire safari far beyond our expectations. Khalifa has an extraordinary ability to navigate the parks and spot wildlife, and thanks to his expertise we enjoyed countless memorable sightings throughout the trip including The Crossing. Each individual game drive has been unique and exciting.
What impressed us most was Khalifa's dedication to ensuring we had the best possible experience. He always seemed to know where to go and when, maximizing our opportunities to see wildlife. His patience, friendly personality, and willingness to answer endless questions made us feel comfortable and welcome throughout the journey. He was particularly wonderful with our family, creating an atmosphere that was both professional and relaxed.
We have travelled extensively, and this safari ranks among our best travel experiences ever. A huge thank you to AXIS for their excellent service and especially to Khalifa. We wholeheartedly recommend AXIS to anyone considering a safari in Kenya.

The best travel agency
We had an absolutely wonderful experience with Axis Africa, and we are genuinely grateful to the entire team for making our Kenya safari so memorable.
A special mention to Mungai, our tour consultant, who handled all our room bookings, arrangements and safari planning. He was always helpful, responsive and professional, and made sure everything was arranged smoothly for us. We felt well taken care of throughout the trip, and whenever we needed anything, Mungai was there to assist us.
And then there was our incredible guide, Peter Ngigi — truly one of the best guides we could have asked for.
Peter went far beyond what we expected to make our safari special. He put in tremendous effort to help us see the Big Five, and his knowledge, experience and understanding of the animals were exceptional. But what impressed us most was not just his skills as a guide — it was the way he treated us as guests.
Peter genuinely listens to his guests. He understands what they want to experience and does everything possible to make it happen. He is kind, generous, patient, extremely helpful and incredibly smart at what he does. He handles every situation calmly and smoothly, and you can immediately see that he takes great pride in his work.
What makes Peter different is that he doesn’t treat a safari like just another job. He makes you feel that your safari is his safari and that your experience matters to him personally. He was always thinking ahead, helping us with anything we needed and making sure we were comfortable and enjoying every moment.
We are extremely grateful to Peter and to Axis Africa for giving us such an unforgettable experience in Kenya.
Axis Africa is truly a great company, and having someone like Peter as a guide makes the experience even more special. We would highly recommend Axis Africa to anyone planning a safari in Kenya. If you are lucky enough to have Peter as your guide, you are in very good hands!
Thank you, Mungai, Peter and the entire Axis Africa team for an amazing safari. 🇰🇪❤️

Responsive and Adaptive
I booked with Sunstrip Africa from Bangladesh based only on online reviews, and it was worth it. Tekla was responsive and arranged my preferred accommodation within my budget. Our guide, Soitah, was amazing. His enthusiasm helped us see many animals, birds, and an unforgettable river crossing in just one and a half days.
The only downside was that our jeep broke down on the way to Lake Nakuru, and the group’s different destination preferences were not managed well. I suggest arranging groups with similar itineraries and expectations.
Overall, it was an unforgettable safari experience. Thank you, Sunstrip Africa!
Not something to miss at all
The Elizabeth revelation safaris had a really good experience in how to communicate with visitors and how they make you feel that your not far from home, my money actually went for good.
