Humphrey made the safari incredible !!
We absolutely got our moneys worth with Avocet safaris. Out tour guide Humphrey was the absolute BEST tour guide you could ask for. He was so knowledgable about animals/directions and so welcoming. The company really looked after us. The range of animals we saw was incredible and the whole 5 days was amazing not just one day. I would highly recommend !!

We agree with all the other guides who told us we were lucky because Meru Slopes were the best.
We booked Meru Slopes directly after reading reviews about them on Safari Bookings. We emailed the company and Gift Tembo replied within an hour asking when and what we were looking for.
Our experience from there was fantastic. Gift adjusted our itinerary continually as we fine tuned travel to and from Tanzania.
In the end they organised an 8 day personal tour - just the 2 of us and a guide. The value for money was wonderful compared to pricing we’d when first investigating a Safari holiday.
Meru Slopes covered everything - meeting our 4am arrival flight, organising an early check in that day so we could sleep and recover, and then doing a late briefing about the Safari.
The Safari was everything we had hoped for and more. Our guide, Daniel Mbise was fantastic - taking us away from the crowds and finding so many animals and birds for us to enjoy - often the only cruiser stopped by the roadside. His chats about animal and bird behaviour were sensational - proving time and time again to have an encyclopaedic knowledge of what we were looking at and were they fitted into the local environment.
And at the end of each day, the accommodation provided was lovely. Mid quality according to Gift, but excellent quality was our experience.
In summary, if you’re thinking about organising a Safari holiday, take the plunge. Contact Meru Slopes and book direct. You won’t be disappointed.
Knowledgeable tour guide with an eagle eye. He always could find animals and stay at right place.
Really good value for money of what we choose. Great plan with fantastic hotels.

A kind soul who shares his love for Tanzania with genuine passion.
Shedrack is a truly wonderful person. From the very beginning, he was always attentive to everything we needed, always smiling, and always making sure we were comfortable and enjoying every moment.
You can immediately see how much he loves Tanzania and how passionate he is about sharing that love with everyone who visits. His enthusiasm, knowledge, and dedication made our safari even more special.
Everything went incredibly smoothly. The timing was perfect, every stop was well planned, and he always seemed to know exactly where to take us to maximize our chances of seeing the animals. Everything fell perfectly into place, making the whole experience feel effortless and unforgettable.
Thank you, Shedrack, for making this trip so special. We couldn’t have asked for a better guide. Wishing you all the very best for the future—you truly deserve it!
A special mention also goes to our driver, Elias. He is an absolute master behind the wheel. He drove us safely through every road and terrain, always making us feel comfortable and secure while getting us to every destination in the best possible way. Thank you, Elias, for your professionalism and for being such an important part of this unforgettable experience.

Great Safari
We had a wonderful 8 day safari. Our accommodations were excellent, and our tour guides Solomon and Johnny were the best part. They were knowledgeable and patient, and they worked tirelessly to make sure we were comfortable and to find the animals we came to see and many more we didn’t know about.

An amazing experience of the wonders of Tanzanian tribes and wildlife in Serengeti nd anAfric
From the first encounter, our knowledgeable guides, Dominic and Alfred, ensured the total success of our 12 member family trip. From the start, their extensive knowledge, friendliness, patience and humor made all the difference. They ensured we saw every one of the BIG FIVE close up, adjacent to our jeeps, in addition to all the other animals. As ex-South Africans, having been to other wildlife parks previously, the expertise of Dominic and Alfred was THE major reason why everyone found the tour so ENTHRALLING. Each day had different highlights, with interest and information about all the wildlife and the tribes. The well-planned itinerary with personal input, attention to every detail and daily contact with Karin of Tansafari Tours, ensured that every aspect of each day was exactly as had been anticipated.
There was absolutely nothing more that could been wished for or added, except for addition days. Everyone of us returned from Serengeti and Ngorongoro entranced with the outstanding experience and the personal interaction of Dominic and Alfred with all of us - ranging in age from 9-85 years old. It was an unbelievable and unforgettable safari, better than we had even imagined. The combination of the wildlife and the tribes provided a comprehensive exposure to Tanzania. All of us appreciated the professional and friendly and enthusiastic care that Dominic and Alfred so naturally gave. We were sad to take leave of THE DYNAMIC DUO at the airport. A short, luxurious stay at prominent Zanzibar beach resort concluded this exceptional trip.

A professional and genuinely caring tour operator that made our safari an unforgettable experience
Our safari with Axis Africa Expedition & Safaris was an unforgettable experience, and a huge part of that was thanks to our guide, Amos.
From the very first day, Amos made us feel comfortable and welcome. He was incredibly friendly, professional, and always happy to answer our questions. His knowledge of the wildlife was amazing—he explained the behavior of the animals, shared fascinating facts, and made every game drive both exciting and educational.
He also had an incredible eye for spotting wildlife. Thanks to him, we saw so many amazing animals and had experiences we will never forget. Beyond being an excellent guide, Amos was simply great company. We genuinely enjoyed spending time with him, and his positive attitude made every day even more enjoyable.
Axis Africa organized everything perfectly, but Amos truly made this safari special. If you have the chance to go on a safari with him, you are very lucky. We highly recommend Axis Africa Expedition & Safaris and especially our guide, Amos. Thank you for giving us memories that will last a lifetime!
Lewis was a very good driver and managed to show us all the animals close-up
The safari tour was as in the itinerary
Food was very good and warm and accommodated dietary requirement
Lewis our driver was very good, and funny and he kept entertaining us with his funny amusing stories about the animals
He also went close to animals and made us have the best views and the best pictures. I’d recommend

Superb from start to finish!
I didn’t know anything about safari booking and so spent ages trying to work out how best to book a safari. In the end I came across Axis and have to say their service was excellent. Their communication about possible options was well laid out and they were very responsive to the very many questions I had. They only take a small deposit too, which was really helpful.
The Safari itself was amazing!! We stayed at Wild Nest which was lovely. Large rooms, amazing food and wonderful hosts. But the best part was our guide, Tony. If you are fortunate enough to have him, you’re in for a real treat! He knows so much and his ability to navigate the Masai Mara was unbelievable. We saw the big 5 and the ugly 5. He went out of his way to find the best places possible to view animals and scenery. He was superb! We were also placed on a shared tour with some really lovely people who we really enjoyed spending time with too.
