Friendliest, most informative and most enjoyable safari ever!
I can't believe everything experienced in just 5 days and it was so affordable. Our guide, Lucky, took such good care of us! He was so flexible and knew exactly where to be and when so we got the most of our trip! He was so fun and has the very best personality! I will book again!!

Seamless and wonderful experience
Peter created a fantastic program for a group of 26. We had 4 vehicles and 4 brilliant guides (Mose, Freddy, Brian & David). The organisation was great and the trip is now a lifetime memory for us all. The guides we friendly, knowledgeable and enhanced the trip for us all.
We were so lucky in Maasai and saw leopard, cheetah, lion cubs, elephants and so much more. The rest of the stops were also incredible from walking amongst giraffe, to seeing hippos from the water and huge herds of elephants in Amboseli. I would recommend Pavillion to anyone. Thank you all for the best holiday!

Amazing expérience
“Our stay was incredible, more than we could have imagined… the organization was perfect with our guide Maurice, who knew his mission perfectly. He was attentive and very helpful… the organizer Kiwoito was exceptional from the beginning to the end of the safari, including the choice of hotels… especially the Explorer Hotel in Serengeti, which was of exceptional quality… we left with heavy hearts and full of memories… you can choose Kiwoito and Maurice for your future safari without hesitation, and hakuna matata.”

One of the most phenomenal and breathtaking experiences of my life!
I had the most amazing experience ever in a 4 day safari tour through the Tarangire, Serengeti and the Ngorogoro Crater. My guide was Emanuel and honestly, I couldn't have asked for a better guide!! He made sure the whole group was comfortable, took care care of all our needs and was always there to make sure we had the most pleasant experience. He made sure to drive everywhere so we can see all the animals possible. His knowledge was outstanding and we definitely learned all we could about the animals and even many words in Swahili. I definitely want to go back and do it again, and if Emanuel can be my guide again, that would be even better! 100% recommended!!

Professional, well organised and friendly
it has long been a dream of my aunt to visit Kenya so we were concerned that our trip would not meet her expectations, however they were exceeded so i decided to write a review
From the initial communication the planning of the safari was excellent from start to finish, with every detail carefully organised to ensure a seamless and enjoyable experience. Communication throughout the process was outstanding, and Lucy was exceptional in keeping us informed, responding promptly to questions, and providing clear, helpful guidance at every stage. Her professionalism, attention to detail, and proactive approach gave us complete confidence in the arrangements, making the entire experience stress-free and enjoyable long before the safari even began.
The day before the Safari began Lucy contacted me to confirm pickup time then shortly after our Driver, Yassin, contacted me to confirm and also provide his contact number should we have any concerns. On the first morning Yassin met us at the agreed time and took us to the office where we met with Lucy who explained the program for the Safari and answered any questions.
Our safari experience was made truly unforgettable thanks to Yassin, whose expertise, dedication, and passion for wildlife were evident throughout the trip. From the very beginning, he demonstrated an outstanding knowledge of the parks, animal behaviour, and local environment, ensuring that every game drive was both exciting and informative.
One of Yassin's most impressive achievements was his ability to locate all of the Big Five. Through his experience, contacts, and deep understanding of animal movements, we were fortunate enough to see lions, leopards, elephants, rhinos, and buffalo during our safari. His determination and patience were remarkable, and it was clear that he took great pride in providing the best possible wildlife viewing opportunities for the group.
What truly set Yassin apart, however, was his ability to understand the needs and interests of everyone in the group. He quickly recognised that each guest had different priorities, whether that was photography, bird watching, spending more time observing particular animals, or simply enjoying the overall safari experience. He listened carefully to our preferences and adapted the itinerary accordingly, ensuring that everyone felt included and got the most from the trip.
Yassin's flexibility was exceptional. Rather than rigidly following a fixed schedule, he adjusted game drive routes and timings based on wildlife sightings, weather conditions, and the group's interests. This personalised approach meant that every day felt unique and carefully tailored to maximise both wildlife encounters and guest enjoyment. His decisions consistently resulted in memorable experiences that exceeded our expectations.
Yassin consistently went above and beyond to ensure that my elderly aunts were comfortable throughout the safari. He carefully coordinated with each lodge to secure accommodation that was conveniently located close to the main facilities, minimizing the amount of walking required and making it much easier for them to enjoy their stay. This level of care and consideration provided great peace of mind for the family and demonstrated Yassin's genuine commitment to delivering an exceptional and inclusive safari experience for us
Throughout the safari, Yassin maintained a perfect balance between professionalism and friendliness. He was always approachable, happy to answer questions, and eager to share fascinating information about the animals, ecosystems, and local culture. His enthusiasm was contagious and added tremendous value to every outing. Whether explaining animal behaviour, identifying birds, or discussing conservation efforts, he displayed an impressive depth of knowledge that enhanced our appreciation of the environment around us.
Overall, Yassin exceeded every expectation we had of a safari guide. His ability to find the Big Five, combined with his willingness to adapt the itinerary to suit the group's needs and interests, made our safari an extraordinary experience. His professionalism, expertise, and genuine commitment to ensuring every guest had an unforgettable adventure were outstanding. We would highly recommend Yassin and Axis to anyone planning a safari and consider ourselves extremely fortunate to have had him as our guide.
I must also mention that Axis Africa demonstrated an exceptional level of professionalism throughout the safari, with every aspect of the trip carefully planned and executed to the highest standard. Their attention to safety and preparedness was particularly impressive, as the vehicles were fully equipped to handle any situation that might arise during our journey. From communication equipment and first aid supplies to essential recovery gear and well-maintained vehicles, everything was in place to ensure a safe and comfortable experience.
