Very trustworthy and the best in the country
We had the most incredible experience with Beyond the Plains Safari. From start to finish, our trip was truly unforgettable — everything was well organized, comfortable, and filled with amazing moments that we will cherish forever.
A huge thank you to Alex and the entire team for making our safari so special. Your kindness, professionalism, and attention to every little detail made the journey smooth and enjoyable.
A very special thanks to our guide Ben ; he was absolutely amazing! His knowledge, patience, humility, and warm personality made us feel so comfortable, almost like we were with family. He made every moment fun, he’s funny, made so many jokes and cracked us up and made every single day exciting, and memorable. Thank you Ben from the bottom of our hearts. I would highly recommend whoever is planning a trip to Masai Mara to ask for Ben as your guide.
We saw incredible wildlife, experienced the beauty of Africa, and created memories that will stay with us for a lifetime. We couldn’t have asked for a better team to share this adventure with.
Thank you, Beyond the Plains Safari, Alex, Ben, and the whole team, you made our dream safari come true. Highly recommended! 🦁🌿

Best tour guide we could have wished for
Me and my partner did a 4 day safari with John from Mountain Warriors - he went above and beyond to make our experience so special every single day. We really recommend going with him since he was not only competent in subjects such as animals and nature, but also history, culture and languages. Also, he was great balancing being informative with having a good time and making us laugh.
The stay at the Mountain Warrior Luxury Tented Lodge in Serengeti was one of the best stays we have experienced: amazing accommodation, sunset and sunrise, great food and most important amazing people.
Thank you for a once-in-a-lifetime trip!

Very good, I saw a lot of animals.
Excellent, great value for money, the hotel was nice, and the package included tickets for the boat trip and activities on Crescent Island with no extra charges. Our guide, Isaiah, was also very helpful and experienced.

Regarding the drive guide, I really appreciate Richard who is humorous and can spot the animals at the very first time.

Jeff was the perfect tour operator. He made sure we had memorable experiences.
In general, we had an amazing time. The gamedrives, food and accommodation were excellent. The communication concerning the schedule could have been better, but wasn’t an issue. You get good value for your money.

Jeff is the perfect guide to make it a memorable experience!
The experience with our guide Jeff was excellent.
Axis Africa did a great job overall, but maybe could’ve communicated slightly better about the actual schedule.
Overall great value for the money!

Amazing experience with outstanding service!
We had a 6-day safari with Steve (Njoroge), and it was the best experience ever! Everything was perfect, from the game drives themselves to the smallest details, such as comfortable driving, a clean vehicle, and a flexible schedule tailored to our needs.
We never felt unsafe or uncomfortable during the trip. Steve professionally maintains the perfect balance between giving you personal space and keeping the journey entertaining. He has extensive knowledge of both wildlife and the history of the country, so all your questions will definitely be answered. And you will have a lot of fun with jokes, smiles and warm welcome;)
A few words about the agency as well: the value for money is outstanding. They can customize the tour according to your preferences and help with any additional arrangements.
For example, we chose a tour with only mid-range hotels, but it was no problem to replace one or several hotels with different options if you wanted to upgrade your accommodation or make it more budget-friendly.
Another big advantage is that only a 30% deposit is required to confirm your booking, which makes planning and booking the trip much more easier and stress-free.
It is also easy to arrange visits to additional parks or add extra days to your tour.
So, I highly recommend this tour operator, and Steve in particular as a guide (btw, he speaks Spanish as well). You will never forget such an amazing journey - believe me!

You will not be disappointed!
We had a fantastic safari experience and would highly recommend Safari bookings!
From the start, communication was easy and the team helped us plan the route and choose accommodations that matched our preferences. We appreciated that only part of the payment was required upfront, which gave us confidence and peace of mind before the trip.
A special thank you to our guide, Steve (Njoroge). Steve is friendly, easy to talk to, and genuinely wants his guests to have the best possible experience. He helped us understand the timing of each day, explained all the available options, and was always flexible when we wanted to adjust plans.
What really stood out was his knowledge. Steve knows an incredible amount about animals, birds, and plants, and he is constantly learning more. We had many interesting conversations about wildlife behavior, conservation, and life in Kenya beyond the safari itself.
The vehicle was spotless, comfortable, and perfectly suited for safari conditions. Just as importantly, Steve drove safely and smoothly at all times, without the risky overtaking that can sometimes make safari drives stressful.
We also rented a camera with a 400mm lens through the agency at a very reasonable price, and it greatly improved our experience.
The accommodations were excellent throughout the trip, whether luxury or mid-range, and the food was consistently delicious. We also enjoyed the picnic lunches inside the parks.
Overall, this was an unforgettable safari with great organization, excellent accommodations, and an outstanding guide. Thank you, Steve, for making it so memorable!
P.s. all the big five was collected ;)
