Matt showed great flexibility meeting our specific needs, creating a perfect Safari for us
Jambo Albert and Matt,
After a few hours of sleep in our own beds I felt it important to express our appreciation right away. We left Nairobi at 3 am and arrived the “same day”, June 29th, in Phoenix AZ around midnight, via Istanbul and JFK. That was a 31 hour journey (including the 10 extra hours of time zones we traveled through), but it was all well worth it.
Ellen and I both enjoyed a spectacular vacation, where your company's terrific guides of Joseph, Amos and George, every day, brought us memorable, visual, unique, masterpieces of Kenya and Tanzania wildlife, in their natural setting. Each guide was outstanding, patiently waiting as I snapped great images or accompanying videos of Africa’s animal habitats along the way. As we view these experiences down the way, they will be gentle reminders of the wonders we shared with each other during our Safari and the bonds we made over the fortnight stretch with these three marvelous individuals.
We both loved every moment. Ellen’s joy and exuberant daily was so important to me. Before traveling to Kenya and Tanzania she was apprehensive; fearful of high temperatures, sleeping too close to the ground and bugs, in “tents’, but finding the luxurious camp sites and hotels to be some of the finest establishments we have ever stayed in during 50 years of travel. The warm greetings and hospitality shown at each location are unmatched.
I personally appreciated the extra effort to ferry the supplies needed for Ellen’s medical needs. It has been critical that we both live life to its fullest over the last 6 years of Ellen’s cancer treatment. She came through it all with flying colors.
Please pass on our very best to all the company's employees, who helped make this Safari happen, particularly with the last minute changes, due to the ebola outbreak in Uganda. Ellen and I would like you to thank Joseph, Amos and George, especially for their outstanding contribution to our adventure of a lifetime. So, please share this message with each of them.
Finally, we wish your company continued success and we would be delighted to recommend your expertise in masterfully organizing the Safari on our behalf. Each daily detail helped provide a perfect, magnificent and magical vacation.
Yours sincerely,
Ellen and Chris Brant

Our drivers and tour guides were professional, respectful, friendly, and helpful, making us feel completely comfortable and welcomed throughout the trip. Curated took care of every single detail, allowing us to fully enjoy our honeymoon without any stress or anxiety. We would highly recommend them to anyone planning a trip!

Professional & Helpful safari Agency
We received excellent communication from the day we made inquiries till our last day in Arusha.
Their communication was too notch, we received daily follow up from Dorcas while on safari and efficient explanations from the driver guide who was keen with the details.
They met our expectations and we actually received what they promised each and every day for the 8 days we spend in Lake Nakuru, Maasai Mara, Serengeti and Ngorongoro.
I will always recommend this 8 day tour by Seresa Safaris as you will see all the big five and the wildebeast on large herds.

really good！
I’d love to give a glowing review for this travel agency! It offers affordable prices without cutting corners on service quality. Our guide Joseph deserves special praise for his professionalism, enthusiasm and carefulness. He perfectly arranged our daily itinerary, shared vivid local cultural stories, and dealt with unexpected issues efficiently. We had such a wonderful and memorable travel experience from start to finish, and I will definitely choose them again for my next vacation.
Simon was amazing, he took great care of us and made sure all our dreams came true!
We had a fantastic experience with Family Leisure Africa Safaris from start to finish. Wislay went above and beyond to find us the best safari within our budget, providing several quotes and different itinerary options until we found the perfect fit. His exceptional attention to detail, patience, and commitment to personalised service really set the company apart.
When we needed to make a last-minute change, everything was handled seamlessly. I had countless questions throughout the booking process, and Wislay always responded quickly with helpful, detailed answers. His excellent communication made the entire experience completely stress-free, and every aspect of our trip was explained clearly from the outset.
The safari itself exceeded all our expectations. Every detail was thoughtfully planned, from the accommodation to the game drives, and we felt the trip offered outstanding value for money. We travelled in a top-of-the-range safari vehicle that even caught the attention of other visitors, who stopped to compliment it! The accommodation selected for us was exceptional, with Ashnil Mara Camp and Lake Naivasha Sopa Resort being our favourites. Being able to watch animals so close to our accommodation made the experience even more special.
The biggest thank you, however, has to go to our incredible guide, Simon, who truly made this trip unforgettable. From the very beginning, he was determined to help us see the Big Five, and thanks to his skill and dedication, we did exactly that - with four of them spotted on our very first day!!! His ability to locate the animals was remarkable. Rather than following the crowds of other safari vehicles, Simon often chose a different route, giving us a much more private, peaceful, and exclusive experience.
His knowledge of the animals was exceptional. We learned so much about every animal we encountered, and his ability to identify every bird we saw was genuinely impressive! Beyond his expertise, Simon is a warm, kind-hearted person who always made us feel safe, comfortable, and well looked after. We could tell he cared a lot about making sure our experience for unforgettable. His passion for every animal and genuine love for his job shone through every single day. His driving skills were also impressive, those roads are something else!
If you're booking a safari with Family Leisure Africa Safaris, I would highly recommend requesting Simon as your guide - you won't be disappointed.
A massive thank you to everyone at Family Leisure Africa Safaris for creating such an unforgettable experience. We will definitely be back! If you're looking for an exceptional, stress-free African adventure, we couldn’t recommend Family Leisure Africa Safaris more highly – It was truly a trip of a lifetime

Excellent
Our experience with **Axis Africa** was simply extraordinary. From the very first moment, they demonstrated impeccable organization, attentive service, and great professionalism, taking care of every detail to make our trip unforgettable.
But if there was one person who made all the difference, it was our driver and guide, **Collin Sempele**. His knowledge of the terrain, the wildlife, and animal behavior is exceptional. Thanks to his experience and intuition, he took us to privileged locations within the **Masai Mara**, **Naivasha**, and **Amboseli** national parks, allowing us to experience unique moments and make sightings that we would have been unlikely to achieve otherwise.
As a photographer, I especially appreciated his training and photographic sensitivity. He not only knew where to find the wildlife but also how to position the vehicle to get the best light, the best angle, and the best opportunities to capture unforgettable images. That difference is priceless for those of us who enjoy nature photography.
In addition to his immense professionalism, Collin is a polite, kind, and patient person, always willing to share his knowledge with a smile. He made us feel safe, comfortable, and well taken care of at all times.
I want to express my sincere gratitude to **Axis Africa** for employing professionals of this caliber. If you are looking for a serious, reliable agency committed to offering a top-quality safari experience, and if you have the opportunity to go on safari with **Collin Semplee**, consider yourselves truly fortunate.
Thank you so much for making this trip to Kenya a memory that will stay with us for a lifetime.

Amazing dream come true
It has been an incredible trip. A dream of ours since a very long time. We went as a family, total 4 of us. The trip was well planned and we enjoyed every moment. We had Ben as our personal guide and driver the whole time. He really took care of us very well and ensured we had a great time. He was amazing and had great hospitality. We already miss East Africa and would love to return someday again.

Epic safari time #yolo
We had a really positive experience doing the Safari…. Wow!!!! We had some hesitations about whether or not we are going to see all the things that we were hoping for, but overall this far extended our expectations, namely, within our first hour on the tour, we saw all animals of the big five including a rhinoceros! Beyond that each day we saw different things all the way from thousands of animals trying to cross a river against a lion to a cheetah that had just freshly killed something to baby elephants playing around with their mother. This was such a memorable trip and we are very grateful to our Guide for making this all happen. Everything was handled seamlessly, and we are very pleased with the experience.

Wonderful time
4 days on Siafu safari were absolutely wonderful. We witnessed some truly incredible scenes — about twenty lions took over a picnic site and slept on the tables, rhinos were running across the plains, giraffes were drinking from a small lake, leopards were resting high up in the trees, and several animals walked right up to our vehicle. In total, we saw around 45 different species.
Our guide, Raymond, was kind, funny, attentive to our wishes, never talked too much, but answered every question and drove exceptionally well. The places we stayed were tidy, welcoming, and offered excellent living conditions.
A true dream come true!
