The best first safari we could have done
David always resolved any doubts or problems we had before and during the entire safari.
We've had an incredible experience; everything has lived up to our expectations.
We had some very good drivers who made sure we saw as many animals as possible and learned about them.
We will definitely repeat the experience.

8day Uganda-Rwanda trip with Allanie.
We knew this tour was going give Gorillas & National Parks but Uganda gave a whole amazing experience, from the people, sunsets, mountains and our guide, Allanie who was unbelievable. Very knowledgeable about all aspects of Uganda & neighbouring countries with vast experiences of the whole region & not only wildlife & National Parks but also the history, politics, culture & to what's being mined here & there and foreign investment as well as knowing most corners of each National Park & where to find wildlife. To spend 8 days together with anyone you need to get along and Allanie made it all very easy, being attentive to making it a great experience but not pushy and always trying to get the maximum experience for us. Collecting & dropping at the airports, to helping get a drink in a local mountain bar after gorilla trek with some new friends & was very helpful at every turn, providing amazing memories of the complete trek.
The safaris were amazing with many great wildlife sightings during out trip through Murchisons Falls & QE National Parks and the 3 boats trips organised during our journey were great excursions showing a different side of safari and wildlife.
The hotels and lodges gave a variety of stays all of a good standard with great service starting with both the Pakuba & Acacia lodges set in amazing locations within the National Parks at isolated waterside locations. The Birdnest Resort was in a beautiful lakeside location where Ugandan life carried on in the views, followed by Four Gorilla Lodge in Bwindi surrounded by jungle and finishing off in Da Vinvi Gorilla Lodge near Volcanoes NP. June weather was constantly hot but not overbearing with cooler times in the mountains at night.
We highly recommend Abantubo Safaris and Allanie to anyone looking for the maximum adventure and would love to meet again for our next East Africa adventure.

Fabulous
An incredible family safari with our children. Cosmas was amazing at catering to both young and old. We felt safe and were able to fully enjoy the beauty of the safari.

Great last-minute Tsavo East safari experience
We had a fantastic time with Steve’s driver and guide, Ali. Steve made sure we had the best possible experience in Tsavo East and even managed to arrange a last-minute overnight stay for our group of four at a hotel close to Voi Gate.
During the safari, we got to see four out of the Big Five, as well as many other amazing animals. Ali is a very friendly and funny guide, and you can ask him anything. Don’t hesitate to ask questions or let him know your preferences—he’ll do his best to make it happen!
Thanks, Steve and Ali, for a great and memorable experience!

Excellent planning, superb guides, and a truly memorable safari experience.
Our 3-day Masai Mara safari booked through Axis Africa was absolutely perfect from start to finish. Working with Jackline during the planning process was a pleasure. She was incredibly patient, knowledgeable, and responsive, answering all of our questions and managing every detail flawlessly.
Our guide, Kelvin Njamia, made this trip truly unforgettable. Kelvin is passionate about the Masai Mara, incredibly knowledgeable about the wildlife and ecosystem, and dedicated to providing the best possible experience. Thanks to his expertise, we were able to see lions, elephants, giraffes, hippos, cheetahs, hyenas, wildebeest, zebras, and so much more than we anticipated. It was amazing to witness so many animals living their lives freely across the beautiful savannah.
One of the best decisions we made was booking a private safari. While it costs a bit more, it was absolutely worth it. We were able to decide how we wanted to spend our time, stay longer at sightings that interested us, and enjoy every game drive at our own pace. Being able to experience everything from the comfort of our own vehicle made the safari even more enjoyable and personalized.
We stayed at Mara Chui Lodge, which was a great base for our adventure.
We are so grateful to Jackline for organizing everything perfectly and especially to Kelvin for sharing his passion and helping us experience the very best of the Masai Mara. We will be recommending Axis Africa, Jackline, and Kelvin to all our friends and family. If you're considering a safari, don't hesitate to book with them!
An unforgettable experience and worth every penny.

All expectations were exceeded
We went to Botswana in August 2026 and were curious and also a bit nervous as it was our first trip organised by a travel agency and not by ourselves. However, there was no need to be nervous at all. We had a few different drivers and guides, all of them were helpful and friendly at all times. When we had questions, we could always reach out to somebody at any time. Furthermore, the tour was just fantastic and we gained a wonderful insight into Botswana (and also Simbabwe). Thank you once again for this experience, we well never forget it.

Very good experience
We booked the three days safari tour in Kruger Park. The staff was for sure the best part: they are extremely friendly and helpful (honorable mention to our driver Ben and our guide Leonard). We were probably a bit unlucky with the animals. We saw only three of the big five (from a long distance) but of course we understand that this does not depend from the tour operator.

Unforgettable
An unforgettable trip
We organized the trip with Gorilla Tours after finding excellent reviews online, and we can only confirm them.
Jennifer organized a wonderful, comprehensive tour, where we saw diverse landscapes in a country we had underestimated.
We had chosen Uganda solely for the gorillas, but instead it turned out to be a marvel, with ever-changing landscapes that left us speechless.
Our drivers/guides, Moses and Wilson, were fantastic, always available and available for our every request.
The hotel and location exceeded our expectations, and no problems with food (always with due care), cars, etc.
Trust them, and you will never forget this trip.
Thanks again, Jennifer, Moses, and Wilson.
Hugs 💚
