In Good Hands Every Step of the Way
I would give more than 5 stars if I could.
Our joining group safari with Axis Africa Safari was perfectly organized from start to finish. From the very beginning, you truly feel that you are in good hands. The team is professional, trustworthy, and genuinely cares about making your experience unforgettable.
Even though it was a joining group safari, everything was managed smoothly, and they found a way to accommodate everyone’s different needs. In my case, I needed a direct transfer to the airport, and they arranged it without affecting the rest of the group’s itinerary—something that is quite rare with many other tour operators. They also offer direct airport transfers at a very affordable price, which is an excellent additional service.
A special thanks to our guide, Yassin. He is incredibly knowledgeable, experienced, and well respected by all the other guides in the parks. You can immediately tell that he knows what he’s doing, and we always felt safe and confident with him. Thanks to his expertise, we had amazing wildlife sightings and an unforgettable safari experience.
What impressed me the most, however, was their support even after the safari had ended. I accidentally made an incorrect money transfer through M-Pesa, something that had absolutely nothing to do with their services. Despite this, they went out of their way to help me, offering both practical assistance and genuine moral support. Finding people who are so kind, honest, and willing to help, even when it’s not their responsibility, is truly rare.
I highly recommend Axis Africa Safari to anyone looking for a perfectly organized safari with a team you can genuinely trust. They consistently go above and beyond, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience.

Incredible trek and team
From the moment we arrived until we completed our trek, the whole experience was exceptional. Climbing Kilimanjaro is an incredible challenge, but having such a dedicated team made it so much more enjoyable.
A massive thank you to Justin and Omary for being outstanding guides. Their encouragement, professionalism and genuine care for everyone in the group never went unnoticed. They kept us motivated through every stage of the climb and always made sure we were safe, comfortable and smiling, even on the hardest days.
The entire crew deserves so much credit. The porters, chefs and support staff worked unbelievably hard every single day and always welcomed us into camp with warm smiles and amazing energy. Their teamwork and kindness created an experience that was far beyond what we expected. Calvin’s wake up calls with coffee and positive energy was a particular highlight and Danny’s support in reaching the summit was amazing.
Thank you to everyone for making this such a memorable journey. Reaching Uhuru Peak was an unforgettable moment, and we couldn’t have done it without your incredible support. If you’re thinking about climbing Kilimanjaro, I can’t recommend this team highly enough—they truly are the best. Asante sana! 🏔️🇹🇿

Beyond Words
Let me start with the booking. I decided on Kenya and completed the entire planning and booking over a weekend. The entire process was handled over whatsapp. My countless questions and request for multiple changes due to schedule, cost and flight timings were handled with enthusiasm and patience. I could sense the knowledge of the team and the sincerity in making this a wonderful trip. Then comes the trip itself. The hero undoubtedly is Dun (Duncan). He was the guide for the entire 7 days trip. One of the ever smiling and friendly personalities I have ever seen. We will miss him more than Kenya itself. He knows when to go, where to go, what to see and was quick to adapt to changing wherabouts of animals and our wants.. 25 years of his experience and wisdom helped us spot all the wildlife we wanted to see.. Most of our time was spent in his Landcruiser which is maintained well and clean. Overall a fantastic trip with lots of great memories that we will cherish for a long time. Will be back for Samburu soon. P.S. We had an intern, Emmanuel joining us to learn. A quiet and a smiling person who quickly became my son's friend.
Authentic
This was one of the best tours I have done. It was real and authentic, and I appreciated the time with the wonderful family. I had an opportunity to learn about the culture of their Homestead. I would recommend this tour for anyone.

Memorable
We had an amazing safari with Sandpiper Safaris! Everything was well organized from start to finish.
Our guide, Ciprian, was incredibly friendly and always stopped whenever we wanted to take photos, never rushing us and even offering to take pictures for us.
Our chef, Erick, was always smiling and prepared delicious meals. He happily adjusted the seasoning whenever we asked. Both of them made our safari unforgettable. Highly recommended!

Excellent and friendly service
I did a last minute 2 day safari to Ngorogoro and Tarangire national parks with Killipath. Anna, who helped me book this trip, was very reactive and helped me sort out a suitable trip in no time. She also checked with me during the trip to ensure that everything was going smoothly, there was a slight issue (outside of their control) and this was resolved quickly and satisfactorily. I'm happy to recommend this tour operator.

Unforgettable experience
We had a very nice safari with amazing people! Unfortunately we didn’t see the leopard…
Our guide Cyprian and chef Erick (stomach engineer) were like family for us!
Cyprian didn’t need a gps and knew a lot about the animals.
Erick was always preparing good Swahili food with a big smile! Always kitamu sana.
Even for early safari’s the food was always there.

Perfect Organization, Communication, Value and Safari!
What a wonderful experience working with Shengena Adventures! I found them online through reviews and read up on them. I decided to take the chance and did not regret it for a moment! Amazing!
After careful research Shengena stood out. I was looking for value for money, safety, quality and experience, and Shengena had all of those.
Omar really helped so much with all our planning - he was informative, responded quickly and answered all of my questions (and zo had a lot)! He always made me feel comfortable with the choices we made and helped guide our decision to make the most of our experience. Everything was perfect.
The accommodation was so good and the staff were very friendly. We had everything we needed and the food was delicious.
Also, our guide/driver, Stanley, was incredible!! He made us feel at home here in Tanzania, is a BRILLIANT driver and is so knowledgeable! He knows so much about the wildlife and the plants and trees - my husband and I just couldn’t believe how lucky we were to have such a wonderful guide! And he provided very tasty lunches made sure we had everything we needed. We would highly recommend him!
The all terrain vehicle was comfortable and had charging stations and a fridge! It was easy to spot wildlife and take pictures.
We had an excellent experience and would highly recommend Shengena! Thank you for the wonderful memories!
