Cynthia answered all out question before and during the trip. Friendly and accommodating.
Cynthia was very patient and answered all our questions before and during the trip. Our guides, Jack and Sir Charles, were friendly and knowledgeable about the animals and pointed them out along the way. We stuck with Sir Charles for our trip because he took us to our camp separate from the group every night. He has 16 years experience and it showed. His eagle eyes and connections put us on the hottest spots and his foresight put us in the best position to get great views of animals on the move. While other vehicles lingered for photos he would leave before anyone and put us right next to the action anticipating the animal’s moves before they made them. We had a cheetah and multiple lions pass within a couple feet of our vehicle. One male lion even decided to rest in the shade of our Land Cruiser! We saw the big five, the big nine, and the ugly five. We saw a river crossing where a lion was waiting on the other side for unsuspecting wild-a-beasts! We even saw the elusive rhino and leopard! Every day got better and better thanks to Sir Charles and Jack. Even more impressive was that our masterfully driven Land Cruiser was stick-shift! Asante Sana, Sir Charles!
Axis accommodated 4 of us in our group of 14 that chose cheaper lodging. We opted for the budget accommodations and they were great! We stayed at Wild Nest Mara Camp and our tent came with two beds, a bathroom, and a shower. One day it rained particularly hard causing an electricity broken out. Generator power was on but would shut off after midnight. They approached me knowing I used a Cpap for sleeping. I mentioned I had a battery backup that would last 3 hours so they only shut off generator power for 3 hours. Breakfast, boxed lunch, and dinner were provided for us daily and were a mix of African offerings and tourist-friendly options. Thanks Wild Nest!
Overall, this was a trip of a lifetime that we won’t soon forget. Thanks to everyone at Axis Africa Expeditions & Safaris for such a great experience with family and friends! Highly recommend this great company!
Edna & Team are Excellent Every Step of The Way.
Spearman helped my wife and I organize our honeymoon to the Masai Mara in July 2026 including two nights in Nairobi and two at the Mara Engai Lodge. Before the trip, Edna was always very prompt and communicative in helping us plan our itinerary including a wonderful day to get adjusted in Nairobi. She was more than happy to share paperwork that helped us get comfortable with booking including the TRA License. Additionally, the rates Edna was able to secure on lodging were often better than what we could get ourselves. On the trip, Enda and team really went above and beyond to take care of everything along our itinerary including several last minute changes. Our guide, Joseph chased down a rogue baboon that had taken our passport in Nairobi and recovered it, saving our trip in the process, and Edna was able to recommend plenty of delicious local spots to eat that took us a little off of tourist the beaten path. When we needed to make a stop before our return flight to replace some eye glasses, Edna's team helped us make it happen. Beyond that, every place that Edna and team recommended for lodging had really top quality service. Edna arranged several special touches including special honeymoon decor, romantic bush dinners and sundowners just for my wife and I that made the trip extra special.
Our only regrets from the trip are that we could not have gone for longer and that we did not bring enough cash to tip all of the wonderful people we encountered on the trip as much as we might have liked. I consider myself very confident at planning international travel and do not believe I could have executed nearly as high quality a trip as Edna and team put together. They gave us luxury at a very reasonable price.

approachable and professional
An incredible experience. I doubt you’ll find another tour operator offering the same services that is so personable, professional, and reasonably priced. Mention that it includes unlimited mileage and a hot lunch instead of a boxed picnic.

This AMAZING safari way beyond our expectations
This safari experience was way beyond my expectations—and beyond what anyone in our group expected! It was so worth it! I’m so glad we chose Lion King Adventures.
Every scene felt like stepping straight into a Discovery! A huge shoutout to our incredible guide, Suleiman—he’s professional, attentive, and so hilarious. With his expertise, we checked off both the Big Five and the Ugly Five, plus an unforgettable river crossing! He really knows animal behavior inside out, which helps us achieve our list for this safari.
An unforgettable journey filled with amazing moments that words can hardly describe!
I highly recommend Lion King Adventures and Suleiman to everyone!!!!

Unforgettable Trip
We did a five day safari with Mellivora African Travels and all I can say is that the tour was delivered out of our expectations. Everything was prepared for us accommodations, transportation and food. Our guide Jordan was one of the best knowledgeable and caring he made our tour unforgettable as we spent most of the time with him. We were able to see the big five, What else could we need from an African safari. Honestly the hospitality that Mellivora and their staff have is unexceptional and pleasing. Fransisca from the office was there to help us from the arrangements to finalization always fast to respond and there to give us other options whenever needed to ensure we get the best. I will recommend Mellivora African Travels to anyone who wants to make their first time experience in the wildlife of Africa unforgettable because everything was made easy by the team.

Three unforgettable days with a great team
We just completed a three-day safari with Serengeti Green Tanzania and can only recommend them.
Our contact person, Sabina, was friendly and attentive throughout. Communication was clear and reliable from the first enquiry onwards, she was very patient with us and accommodated our wishes without hesitation. She even checked in at the end of each day to ask how we were doing, which felt genuinely caring and highly professional.
Our driver Imani made the three days truly comfortable. He is an excellent driver and always did his best to make sure we saw as many animals as possible and got the best viewing spots. He is young, so we connected with him right away and the atmosphere in the car was relaxed and fun.
The only thing we would have wished for is a bit more information about the animals and the region along the way, a few more explanations would have added even more depth to the experience. Apart from that, there is nothing to criticise.
We would happily book another safari with Imani and Serengeti Green Tanzania.

Superb 12 nights Serengeti Safari organised by Asanja Africa
We were a group of 6 wildlife enthusiasts and our 12 nights Serengeti Safari in June 2026 was organized by Asanja Africa. We spent four nights each at Asanja Nyasirori Camp, Asanja Moru Camp and Entara Olmara Camp for a cross-sectional Serengeti experience from west to east. My impressions and experience in these three Camps are briefly stated below:
ASANJA NYASIRORI CAMP (Western Serengeti) : --
Camp Location:
The Camp, recently commissioned, has an excellent hillside location in the proximity of Grumeti River – overlooking the scenic valley below with occasional sightings of large herds of migrating wildebeest as well as elephants and impalas – with hyenas calling almost throughout the night and occasional roar of lion. As we were checking in at the Camp on 9th June we were thrilled to witness thousands of migrating wildebeest file past in the valley not too far from the Camp.
Accomodation:
The Camp is a modern (concrete) unique rendition of traditional ethnic African “Boma” huts with a rather luxurious lay-out. With only seven “Boma” units, the Camp gave us an exclusive and peaceful experience (without too many guests), which we appreciated very much. All amenities in the rooms were top-class. Each spacious unit consisted of a combined bedroom-toilet room and an adjacent lounging room with comfortable sofas and a private plunge pool. Each unit was cleverly hidden from the adjacent unit by green foliage and enjoyed a superb view of the valley below. What we missed however was a curtain between the bedroom and bath/toilet area for providing better privacy. Also, during mid-day the rooms (probably because of the concrete structure and external colour scheme) became rather warm making it difficult to get an afternoon nap (which we feel is necessary to be fresh for the evening game drive). The performance of the fan above the bed was not adequate enough to make a difference. A portable table/stand fan near the bed would easily solve this issue.
Food:
The food served (both occidental and oriental) were delicious. We were pleasantly surprised with the authentic vegetarian and non-vegetarian Indian dishes prepared by the Chef as per our suggestions. What we missed here was the preparation of bakery items in the Camp.
Service:
Service was absolutely top-class, courteous, efficient and professional in all aspects – whether in the room, dining, lounge or in any other area of the Camp. All requirements of guests were met promptly.
Game-drives & Wildlife:
We were fortunate to witness the arrival of the wildebeest migrating herds in the Grumeti region. The sight of large migrating herds at Nyasirori swamp was breath-taking. Plenty of other animals, including lions, elephants and antelopes – not too far from the Camp. We however could not witness any crossings of Grumeti River by the migrating herds. We saw very few other safari vehicles in our Game-drives and enjoyed most of the sightings almost exclusively -- which was a huge plus point.
MORU ASANJA CAMP (Central Serengeti) : --
This is a tented Camp situated in a rather remote, quiet and wild area of Central Serengeti – fortunately some distance away from the busy tourist area of Seronera. The location of the Camp is excellent -- in the wilderness surrounded by a ring of hills with a scenic view of the broad valley in front. Elephants crossing in front of the Camp and lion’s roaring at night.
With only eight tents, the Camp gave us an exclusive and peaceful experience (without too many guests), which we appreciated very much. The tents and amenities are however pretty basic, but the location in the peaceful wilderness is its great attraction. During our stay we had several sightings of very large herds of zebras – probably the tail-end of the Great Migration moving up the Western Corridor for the Grumeti River crossing. We also saw lions, cheetahs, leopard, elephants and antelopes. One early morning, we were fortunate to spot one black rhino in the distance. We saw very few other Safari Vehicles/tourists in our Game-drives and enjoyed most of the sightings almost exclusively -- which was a big plus point. However, the problem during the time of our visit in June was the tall grass which in most places obstructed clear sighting of the animals. Moreover, because of the Rhino Project, the road network in the area available for game-drives was rather limited.
ENTARA OLMARA CAMP (Eastern Serengeti) : --
Camp Location:
The Tented Camp is located in the relatively less frequented Eastern Serengeti within the vast unending Namiri Plains – home to several lion prides and many cheetahs. We loved the setting of the Camp in the natural wilderness. Giraffes were frequently moving around the tents in the evening and night. We heard lions roaring at night.
Accomodation:
With only eight tents, the Camp gave us an exclusive and peaceful experience (without too many guests), which we appreciated very much. The tents are very spacious with comfortable 3-piece sofa set and excellent amenities. As the weather was cool and pleasant even at mid-day, we did not at all feel the absence of a fan. On the other hand, it was quite windy throughout the day and night and the netted very large windows all around the tent made it quite pleasant creating a natural sylvan ambience all around. We appreciated the traditional separate arrangement between the bedroom and the bath/toilet area for better privacy.
Food:
The food was quite delicious. Chef Dastaan is a cheerful and jovial person capable of serving all type of cuisine as per our choice. Indian cuisine served was authentic and delicious. To top it, the bakery items made in the Camp (including cakes and cookies) were excellent.
Service:
Absolutely top-class, courteous, efficient and professional in all aspects – whether in the room, dining, lounge or in any other area of the Camp. All requirements of guests were immediately complied with.
Game-drives:
Wildlife sightings here was quite impressive. We had some memorable close encounters with several lion prides and cheetah families. We were fortunate to also witness the chase and hunt of thomson’s gazelles by cheetah families on two occasions. This area is perhaps one of the best places in Serengeti for lion and cheetah encounters. We saw very few other Safari Vehicles/tourists in our Game-drives and enjoyed most of the sightings almost exclusively -- which was a big plus point.
Driver - Guides:
Our Driver-Guides, Toshi (Emanuely Pallagyo) and Hamidu (Hamidu Adinani Mgwano), were simply superb in every way. They were with us all through our 12 nights Safari. Their expertise gave us the best game-drive experience. They were extremely courteous, always cheerful and amiable and full of enthusiasm to show us all that was ever possible in the game-drives while at the same time enriching us with their expert knowledge regarding our wildlife sightings. The Special Photographic Vehicles provided by Asanja Africa were a great help in capturing some impressive scenes during our game-drives – more so because Toshi and Hamidu knew exactly when and where to place the vehicle for the best photographic shots. The credit for our super Safari experience goes to a very large extent to these two Driver-Guides. From my personal experience with 7 Safari outings so far, I will rate them among the best Driver-Guides that I have come across.
In conclusion, we thank Ajay Singh of Asanja Africa for coordinating our Safari from beginning to end in a seamless manner for a hassle-free and truly enjoyable experience.

We got shots I’ve dreamed of for years. Thank you Jenny's Adventure Safaris for an unforgettable trip.
Amazing day at Pilanesberg
Firstly, a big shout out to our smiling and knowledgeable safari guide, Moloko and her colleague Godfrey who drove us from Joberg. They were excellent - impeccable service and a smooth experience all through.
We had a great day - saw two of the big five but a whole bunch of other animals too. Missed the big cats - but that’s never guaranteed. The trip included a delicious braai lunch with some local beers and they made arrangements for my vegetarian mom.
Pilanesberg is lovely - even without the animals, the drive itself is gorgeous.
