Our driver, Cephas, was absolutely amazing. We can’t thank him enough for everything he did for us! Also, all the team members, they were incredibly patient and attentive to all our requests, and did everything they could to make them happen. They were flexible throughout the trip and always treated us with warmth and kindness. We had a hard time choosing a tour, but we’re so glad we chose their private tour for our honeymoon! We highly recommend them to everyone!

An unforgettable safari experience with Axis Africa Expeditions!
We have just returned from our four-day safari through Amboseli, Tsavo West and Tsavo East, and we couldn’t be happier with our experience with Axis Africa Expeditions.
From our very first contact with Peter, everything was handled professionally, clearly and with complete transparency. Before making our final decision, we exchanged several emails discussing the itinerary, accommodation options and all the details of the trip. Peter was always patient, helpful and happy to explain everything. Communication was excellent throughout, and we knew exactly what we were booking and paying for.
We paid a deposit through a secure payment link and settled the remaining balance in person at the company’s office. Our driver picked us up from our hotel and took us there, which also gave us the chance to meet Peter personally. It was lovely to finally put a face to the name after all those emails!
Everything we had agreed on in advance was delivered exactly as promised. No unpleasant surprises, no last-minute changes and no problems whatsoever.
Our vehicle was a proper 4x4 Land Cruiser. Perhaps not the newest car on the road, but comfortable, reliable and absolutely perfect for a safari.
And then there was our driver and guide, Ahmed Mohamed, who deserves a very special thank you.
Anyone who has travelled on Kenyan roads will understand why we appreciated his driving skills so much! What can sometimes look like complete chaos to a European was clearly no challenge for Ahmed. He remained calm, confident and fully in control, whether overtaking endless trucks or navigating the many different vehicles sharing the road.
But Ahmed was much more than an excellent driver. He was also a wonderful safari guide. On previous safaris, we had travelled with both a driver and a separate ranger who had extensive knowledge of wildlife. This time, Ahmed successfully combined both roles.
He was always happy to answer our questions, explain animal behaviour and share his knowledge. We never felt rushed or that we were asking too much. He was patient, attentive and genuinely committed to making our experience special.
One moment we will particularly remember was his determination to find lions in Amboseli. After hearing information over the radio, he made a real effort to reach the location, despite the considerable distance. And he succeeded! Seeing those lions was one of the highlights of our safari.
Three nights, three completely different experiences
We also want to mention the accommodation, as we were quite involved in choosing our lodges. Each place was completely different, and looking back, we feel that each offered something special.
Amboseli Sopa Lodge was all about atmosphere. Its surroundings, beautiful gardens and the feeling of being close to Kilimanjaro created a wonderful introduction to our safari. It had a charm and character of its own.
Kilaguni Serena Safari Lodge in Tsavo West was simply breathtaking. The views over the African bush and the surrounding volcanic hills were extraordinary. Sitting in the restaurant or looking out from our room, watching the landscape and the animals visiting the nearby waterhole, was something we will never forget. There is something truly magical about this place, especially at night. It was one of those experiences where you just sit quietly, look around and realise how lucky you are to be there.
Our final night was at Sentrim Tsavo Lodge in Tsavo East. This was actually an alternative choice, as our originally preferred accommodation was already fully booked. But it turned out to be another memorable experience. Sleeping in a tented room with a solid structure, somewhere between a traditional safari tent and a small cottage, was something quite different from our previous nights.
And then, at around 4 in the morning, lions appeared at the waterhole next to the restaurant! I was able to watch them from an incredibly close distance, while the security guards helped us see them better with their torches. Standing there in the middle of the night, watching wild lions just a short distance away, was an experience I will remember for the rest of my life.
Would we recommend Axis Africa Expeditions? Absolutely!
We saw an incredible number of animals, travelled through three beautiful national parks and came away with memories that will stay with us forever.
A huge thank you to Peter for organising everything so smoothly, patiently answering all our questions and making sure that what was promised was actually delivered.
And an equally big thank you to Ahmed Mohamed for his excellent driving, his patience, his knowledge and all the effort he put into showing us the incredible wildlife and natural beauty of Kenya.
We are genuinely happy that we chose Axis Africa Expeditions. If we return to Kenya for another safari, we would happily book with them again. And if Ahmed were available to be our guide once more, we would ask for him without a second thought.
Highly recommended. A reliable company, wonderful people and a truly unforgettable experience. Thank you, Peter and Ahmed!

An unforgettable safari experience! 🐘🦁
We went on a safari with Manka Safari in January 2025, and it was truly an unforgettable experience!
The team was amazing at tailoring the trip to our wishes, making sure we were involved in planning the perfect safari. We visited Tarangire National Park and the Ngorongoro Crater, where we got incredibly close to the wildlife. It was such a magical and once-in-a-lifetime experience!
A special thank you to Prisca, who was incredibly helpful, attentive, and accompanied us throughout the entire trip. She really made sure we had the best possible experience.
I couldn’t recommend Manka Safari enough, and I genuinely hope to experience another safari with them someday! ❤️

Professional, friendly, and knowledgeable. An amazing safari experience at Nairobi National Park!
I had a wonderful experience with Safari Line Defender during my Nairobi National Park safari. The communication was clear, the service was professional, and the tour was well organized. The guide was friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful throughout the trip. Everything went smoothly, and it was great to see Kenya’s amazing wildlife. The service offered good value for money, and I would definitely recommend Safari Line Defender to anyone looking for a reliable and enjoyable safari experience in Nairobi.

Every Moment Was Enjoyable
Our safari with Africa Joy Tours was wonderful from beginning to end. The guide was friendly, punctual, and always happy to explain the wildlife we encountered during the game drives. Tarangire was filled with elephants and giraffes, and I loved watching them move through the beautiful landscape. The vehicle was comfortable, and we had plenty of opportunities for photos.
The campsites were clean, the food was fresh, and the staff worked hard to make everyone feel welcome. What impressed me most was the relaxed atmosphere throughout the trip. I returned home with amazing memories and a strong desire to visit Tanzania again. Africa Joy Tours provided excellent service and made this adventure truly unforgettable.
