Top Notch Safari Experience.
Our whole trip delivered a wonderful experience for us in Tanzania. The itinerary was well balanced, and relaxing at Suricata Lodge in the evenings made the trip feel extra special and restful. Jeremy was an incredible guide whose sharp eyes helped us spot so many hidden animals in the bush. His warm personality and total professionalism made our game drives feel really special.

Awesome people great Safari
Fantastic Time Travel is a very capable company. They served us extremely well throughout our trip. Our guide, Mack, explained everything to us very clearly, especially when it came to the animals. He would spot the animals and describe them as if he had invited them himself.
If anyone is planning to go on a safari in Tanzania, I highly recommend Fantastic Time Travel. You will definitely have an amazing safari experience. We also had the opportunity to see the Big Five

Responsive and easy to work with.
We arranged a 2 day gorilla trekking tour in Rwanda with Hermosa. The Hermosa team were very helpful and responsive to all our questions and worked with us to tailor the experience to us. Our guide Faustin was exceptional! He was so knowledgeable about not only gorillas but also Rwanda and generously shared his knowledge and insights with us. Having Faustin help us navigate the process made it very easy and stress free. Thank you Hermosa team and Faustin for making this and unforgettable trip!

The best ever
What an unforgettable journey! We rode brand-new motorcycles and took the most extraordinary routes through the beautiful nature of Tanzania. Our guide was a Maasai, and he knew the area like no other. Thanks to his experience and keen eyes, he took us to special places that we would never have been able to discover on our own. The scenery was breathtaking, and we saw so much beauty along the way. We stayed at beautiful, clean campsites, where we enjoyed delicious food, as well as the luxury and comfort of the beautiful hotels. Everything was taken care of down to the last detail, and the combination of adventure, nature, culture, and comfort made this trip truly unique.
Thank you for this fantastic and unforgettable journey. We look back on it with many wonderful memories!

MAGICAL
Our motorcycle safari through Tanzania was truly a magical and unforgettable experience. We rode new CF MOTO motorcycles through a beautiful landscape and saw an incredible number of animals: giraffes, zebras, elephants, lions, and many different birds. It was very special to be able to admire the animals from so close up in their natural habitat from the back of the motorcycle. The small, friendly group made the safari extra personal and special. The amazing accommodations were also a big plus. Everything was well taken care of, and the sweet and hospitable staff ensured that we felt welcome everywhere.
A fantastic experience full of adventure, nature, and special moments. Highly recommended for anyone who wants to discover Tanzania in a unique way!

Great Safari
We had the best driver Ezekiel. If you book a safari ask for him. He found more animals that we could have hoped for. He is a nice guy. The lodges were great as well. Everything was well organised.

Private Safari with small kids
Our experience with Axis Safari was overall mixed, with some very positive aspects but also some important issues.
The biggest positive was undoubtedly our guide, John Mwangi. Our first interaction with the initial guide was unfortunately very poor, and after just a few minutes we asked Axis to change the guide. Axis accepted our request and arranged for John to take over, which we appreciated.
John was excellent throughout the safari. He was knowledgeable, professional and particularly good at finding special wildlife encounters and positioning the vehicle at the right moments. Thanks to him, we had some truly memorable experiences, including an incredible leopard sighting.
The PrideInn Mara was also a very pleasant part of the experience. The food was good, and the staff were friendly and attentive.
The main disappointment was the safari vehicle. From the beginning, we had specifically requested a vehicle with canvas-covered rear windows, as we were travelling privately with two young children. When John took over, his vehicle did not have canvas-covered windows. We therefore asked Axis to keep both requirements: a different guide and a vehicle with canvas.
Axis ultimately arranged for John to exchange vehicles with the initial guide, meaning we ended up using the initial guide’s vehicle — the same vehicle we had arrived in. We had only spent around five minutes in that vehicle initially, so we did not have the opportunity to properly assess its condition at that point. We chose to keep it because it was the only vehicle with canvas that Axis was able to make available to us.
Unfortunately, over the following minutes, we discovered several issues with the vehicle. Most importantly, the majority of the seat belts were not functioning properly, which we found unacceptable when travelling with young children. There were also other maintenance issues, including charging ports that did not work and windows and doors that were not functioning properly. In addition, the vehicle was not particularly comfortable, which was disappointing given that this was a private safari and we spent many hours in the vehicle each day.
To be fair, Axis was responsive to our requests and did make efforts to accommodate the change of guide and our requirement for a canvas-covered vehicle. However, we feel that the standard of the vehicle, both in terms of safety and comfort, was below what we expected from a private safari.
Overall, John was excellent and made a significant difference to our experience, and PrideInn Mara was also very good. Unfortunately, the initial guide experience and, in particular, the condition and comfort of the vehicle prevented us from giving Axis a fully positive review.
