Jafari guide and Shabani driver were absolutely brilliant.
These two gave me and mg wife the most unbelievable amazing experience and had actually taken care of our every need.
Had made sure we got to see all the animals and even caught the close up looks I would highly recommend this trip and with two lovely people like these two we were both so glad that we had them on the following day!!

An outstanding experience !!!
We planned a family holiday going on a Safari to Kenya. We were 6. Me, my wife, two daughters and their partners. After some research I selected Axis Africa Expeditions & Safaris as our operator. My point person was Lucy Precious who helped arrange all the accommodation transport etc. She was prompt in answering all my queries. She was extremely helpful in handling a change in dates.
We spent 2 nights at Sweetwaters Serena Ol Pamela, one night at The Cliff Nakuru and 4 nights at Amani Mara Camp. All the camps were excellent but Amani Mara was our favourite.
In a Safari the guide cum driver is the most important person. In Apidi Kevin we found a wonderful guide. A competent driver, a caring human being and a person with vast knowledge of Kenya, its flora and fauna. He raised the safari experience to a very high level. On a number of occasions our Land Cruiser would be the first to reach the animals and he would ensure that we got the right light and angle to ensure we got some good photographs. Thank you Apidi !!!
Above all Apidi Kevin is a great human being. A big thank you to Lucy and him for arranging transfer of my medicine which I had left behind in Nairobi.
Thank you Axis for an outstanding family holiday !!!

Awesome tour operator
Had a great time in Kenya! The trip was planned well and accommodations were comfortable and beautiful. Our guide Francis was knowledgeable and made sure our safari was as expected. We saw all animals up close but without distressing them. He showed respect to the animals as well as fellow guides. Overall a superb experience! Thanks James for planning and Francis for guiding! 😊

Safety and a very kind driver
I discovered many sites in Addis Ababa with a driver who is very skilled behind the wheel and extremely cautious. Abere Beryhune is always available and pleasant. I will have very fond memories of this experience. Thanks to him! 🙏 I highly recommend him.

An unforgettable experience with the best guide!
A 4 day safari in the Masai Mara. Wilson picked us up in Nairobi and we travelled by road, stopping for a break and coffee.
We did an evening game safari then two full days on safari.
We saw everything and each time it got even better. Wilson is extremely knowledgable, friendly, passionate about his work and knows the Mara like the back of his hand having lived there all his life! He introduced us to the joys of Masai culture and knew all the best spots to find the wildlife including knowing many of the male lions by name and great picturesque picnic spots.
We incorporated a Masai village, a balloon ride and sundowners which added to the memorable experience.
We left by light plane to finish our holiday at Diani beach for a few days.
Enriched with wonderful memories of the Mara and Wilson.
Great Safari Experience with Top-Notch Organization and Service
I recently booked a 5-day safari plus extra with Kilipath Safari, and it was truly a memorable experience from start to finish!
My organizer, Happy, was wonderful. She was remarkably responsive and supportive from the moment I first expressed interest right up until the day I flew out of Tanzania. On a few occasions when things didn't go strictly as planned, Happy stepped in to help right away, whether it was early in the morning or late at night. Probably because Kilipath didn't have enough clients on that day to run a standalone group, she arranged for me to join a tour with Makini Tanzania Safari, which turned out to be a seamless and great arrangement.
Our driver/guide from Makini, Burton (or Baton), was exceptionally skilled and knowledgeable. Between occasional radio contacts with rangers and sharp observation using his binoculars, he consistently found targeted animals and positioned the vehicle in the best possible spot for optimal viewing—all while driving safely. His experience and keen eye made our game drives a highlight of the trip.
We were also accompanied by chef Pascoe (or Pascal). He did a great job preparing a variety of tasty dishes for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. It was especially nice at lunchtime: while tourists from other companies were eating much simpler (and often cold) meals, we enjoyed solid, delicious hot lunches out in the bush.
On the last day, another guide, Emanuel, came to pick me up and drove me to the Materuni waterfalls and coffee plantation. On our walk to and from the waterfalls, there were some muddy and slippery sections, and Emanuel held my hand to make sure I wouldn't slip. Beyond his thoughtful care, I truly enjoyed our conversations. He is a deeply conscientious, dedicated young man who cares deeply about supporting underprivileged children in society, and I learned so much from him about Tanzanian life.
All in all, I highly recommend both Kilipath Safari and Makini Tanzania Safari for anyone looking for a well-coordinated, personal, and rewarding tour in Tanzania!

Excellent service, listens to you and tailors the tour to your requirements.
From the start the agent want to know what we wanted. Suggested some tours and when we said they weren't quite right took time and effort to make sure we saw what we wanted not some where because that was the normal.
All pick ups a were on time and in comfortable vehicles, the hotels chosen were beautiful. We can not fault this experience and would recommend this operator highly.

The company delivered everything we had agreed upon, both in terms of hotels and tours. Our driver was very responsible and helpful, always making sure to provide information whenever we had questions. I highly recommend this company.
