Outstanding 8-Day Family Safari in Kenya with AXIS
Our family of six has just returned from an unforgettable 8-day safari across Kenya, visiting Lake Naivasha, Lake Nakuru NP and Maasai Mara, and we honestly could not have asked for a better experience.
From the very beginning, AXIS demonstrated exceptional professionalism, organization, and customer care. Every aspect of the trip was perfectly coordinated, allowing us to relax and fully enjoy the adventure. The itinerary was well balanced, combining incredible wildlife encounters with stunning landscapes and super comfortable accommodation, making it ideal for a family safari.
The highlight of the trip was undoubtedly our driver and guide, Khalifa. His professionalism, knowledge, and experience elevated the entire safari far beyond our expectations. Khalifa has an extraordinary ability to navigate the parks and spot wildlife, and thanks to his expertise we enjoyed countless memorable sightings throughout the trip including The Crossing. Each individual game drive has been unique and exciting.
What impressed us most was Khalifa's dedication to ensuring we had the best possible experience. He always seemed to know where to go and when, maximizing our opportunities to see wildlife. His patience, friendly personality, and willingness to answer endless questions made us feel comfortable and welcome throughout the journey. He was particularly wonderful with our family, creating an atmosphere that was both professional and relaxed.
We have travelled extensively, and this safari ranks among our best travel experiences ever. A huge thank you to AXIS for their excellent service and especially to Khalifa. We wholeheartedly recommend AXIS to anyone considering a safari in Kenya.

The best travel agency
We had an absolutely wonderful experience with Axis Africa, and we are genuinely grateful to the entire team for making our Kenya safari so memorable.
A special mention to Mungai, our tour consultant, who handled all our room bookings, arrangements and safari planning. He was always helpful, responsive and professional, and made sure everything was arranged smoothly for us. We felt well taken care of throughout the trip, and whenever we needed anything, Mungai was there to assist us.
And then there was our incredible guide, Peter Ngigi — truly one of the best guides we could have asked for.
Peter went far beyond what we expected to make our safari special. He put in tremendous effort to help us see the Big Five, and his knowledge, experience and understanding of the animals were exceptional. But what impressed us most was not just his skills as a guide — it was the way he treated us as guests.
Peter genuinely listens to his guests. He understands what they want to experience and does everything possible to make it happen. He is kind, generous, patient, extremely helpful and incredibly smart at what he does. He handles every situation calmly and smoothly, and you can immediately see that he takes great pride in his work.
What makes Peter different is that he doesn’t treat a safari like just another job. He makes you feel that your safari is his safari and that your experience matters to him personally. He was always thinking ahead, helping us with anything we needed and making sure we were comfortable and enjoying every moment.
We are extremely grateful to Peter and to Axis Africa for giving us such an unforgettable experience in Kenya.
Axis Africa is truly a great company, and having someone like Peter as a guide makes the experience even more special. We would highly recommend Axis Africa to anyone planning a safari in Kenya. If you are lucky enough to have Peter as your guide, you are in very good hands!
Thank you, Mungai, Peter and the entire Axis Africa team for an amazing safari. 🇰🇪❤️

Great team, perfect organization
“Absolutely perfect organization from start to finish.” Thank you to the Kimgoni agency for this flawless experience. The 4x4 was super comfortable, and our driver, Emmanuel, was absolutely extraordinary. He became like family during our week-long safari. He guided us expertly, taught us so much about the animals, always with humor and good cheer. A big thank you also to Philippot; it was a pleasure meeting you. All the accommodations were top-notch, and the food was excellent. In short, an unforgettable experience. Thank you to the whole team.”

Responsive and Adaptive
I booked with Sunstrip Africa from Bangladesh based only on online reviews, and it was worth it. Tekla was responsive and arranged my preferred accommodation within my budget. Our guide, Soitah, was amazing. His enthusiasm helped us see many animals, birds, and an unforgettable river crossing in just one and a half days.
The only downside was that our jeep broke down on the way to Lake Nakuru, and the group’s different destination preferences were not managed well. I suggest arranging groups with similar itineraries and expectations.
Overall, it was an unforgettable safari experience. Thank you, Sunstrip Africa!
Not something to miss at all
The Elizabeth revelation safaris had a really good experience in how to communicate with visitors and how they make you feel that your not far from home, my money actually went for good.

Exceptional Service and an Unforgettable Safari Experience
We booked a trip to the Masai Mara with Rangerbuck Safari for myself and my family, and the entire experience was excellent from start to finish.
From day one, Maria provided exceptional service and took the time to understand our requirements, offering options that were best suited to us. Everything was extremely well organised, from the planning and documentation to the actual safari experience.
The local guide arranged by Rangerbuck was fantastic and played a big part in making the safari so memorable. We also had some concerns about travelling given the current global geopolitical situation, and Maria was always available to address our concerns, answer our questions, and provide reassurance whenever we needed it.
All the information and visa documentation was provided well in advance, which made the whole process smooth and stress-free.
Overall, it was a fantastic and truly memorable trip. I would highly recommend the team at Rangerbuck Safari and would definitely book my next safari with them!

Ethical, respectful and unmatched expertise
We cannot recommend Beacon Safaris enough! Our safari guides Antony and Gilbert were both excellent operators. Antony has so much knowledge to share about the wildlife from his 20 years of experience, and Gilbert is an incredible photographer and emerging safari guide. We saw all of the big five within the first two days and we witnessed the great migration thanks to Antony’s expertise. On top of the wildlife experiences, the driving, the camps, the food, the friendliness, the communication and ease of booking - this operator ticked all of our boxes and we will absolutely be back one day to go on another safari with Antony and Gilbert at Beacon Safaris. Thank you so much for the absolute trio of a lifetime - we will never forget it!
