6 star if possible!
Axis and particularly Lennox and James were amazing from the start. Lennox was very forthcoming with any information requested and kept us up to date with all the necessary information required for the tour. James, our driver of the safari, was absolutely incredible from start to finish, going the extra mile to make our experience the best we could have in our short trip. In the four days through James' expertise we were able to see the big five as well as, some unforgettable moments such as; cheetahs taking down their prey, lions feeding their young and finding an elusive white rhino.
Accommodation was of a high standard, we didn't expect five star luxury, but this is a safari anyway. We stayed in tents with beds and private bathrooms (with hot water) which is more than we expected. On our last night we stayed in a hotel with a swimming pool. Food was of a good standards. I hope you like lentils and meat!
Overall, we were very happy with the tour and couldn't recommend Axis enough. Lennox went above and beyond to help us book our train tickets to Mombasa as we were on tour and ensured we got back to our hotel safely.
In summary, Axis Safari made our safari experience special and we couldn't recommend them enough. It was worth every penny!

Taste of Zanzibar
We booked a short Zanzibar tour as an add-on to a safari trip. Zanzibar was our flight/jet lag recovery spot. Simon was very responsive to our wishes, got us a snorkel trip to Mnemba island and a short stay at Kendwa. Took care of every detail of our transfers and two short (too short!) tours of Stonetown and a Bububu spice farm. Simon also booked our flight from Zanzibar to the start of our Serengeti safari in Arusha. We left wishing we'd had more than a taste of Zanzibar, but we had went very well. We were also able to arrange to pay in advance - this was a very useful convenience to us for this part of our trip.

great trip great price!
We had a great time on our safari with Kenya walking! We went to Amboseli, Masai Mara, and into Uganda to see the gorillas. While on the trip our itinerary got changed a little, which was a bit frustrating for us, so I contacted the owner, Otieno, he was easy to communicate with and made up for the changes. Our first guide Benson was awesome! he was passionate about seeing the animals and a great driver. Some of the drives were really long, but that is just part of seeing a lot of places, I totally recommend this company we had a great time! The price was the lowest I found while doing my research! All of the accommodations were really nice and we saw a ton of animals!

Magic Serengeti
We spend 5 days around Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Serengeti and Ngorongoro.
Mack was funny, polite and very generous with us.
Thomas, our driver, was simply the best: great knowledge of area and animals, funny, always quit and very polite. He delivered every requests from us. He let us see a Leopard as close as possible!
When we turn back to Serengeti we'll ask for Thomas again!

Marvellous days in Kruger!
Some fantastic days in South Africa this summer!Spent one week in Kruger, visiting camps I did not find time to visit last time I was in this wonderful park, and also a re-visit to some camps from which I have very good memories. All the time under the fantastic guidance of Ryan, and enjoying the company of his whole family and Wild Planet Safari customers from the USA. I loved the delicious food, and appreciated all the personal service. And I also was very happy with the closed vehicle on the cold winter mornings. Already looking forward to my next visit. It wo'nt be long!

awesome safari experience
my safari trip with my three daughters was the trip of a life time! We went on the recommendation of a co worker because choosing a company from the many available was overwhelming and frankly scary. She did not steer us wrong. Good Earth was helpful from day one, accomodating our scheduling requests and answering all my questions. Our driver- Moses- was amazing. His English was outstanding and he was knowlegeable about all the wild life, plants and birds in the various areas. He accomodated our requests and catered to our needs. The accomodations were nothing short of amazing and staff everywhere were wonderful. we were able to see animals that we never expected- and experienced the great migration first hand, many lions and their cubs and a high point of my trip- a lion taking down an animal. I have already recommended Good Earth to several of my friends and i fully plan to return to Africa during a different season, using Good Earth.

They truly care about you!
This is the 3rd trip our family has taken with this company and could not be more pleased! They go out of their way to accommodate your needs, meet your requests, exceed your expectations, tailor the trip to your desires. Both times we made special requests to alter the itinerary and change the accommodations and both times they were more than happy to grant our requests. They hire such amazing staff that we bonded with our driver the first time and always request him for future trips. They truly feel like family and keep everything at such a personal level that we consider them friends. But yet they run their business at the highest professional standards! You always feel like you are in such good hands, being taken care of every step of the way. We have young children, and we were so impressed with how they constantly had our children in mind and paid attention to so many little details (toilet paper in the van for roadside emergency bathroom stops, cold water in the cooler at all times, etc.) Angel would call multiple times throughout our trip to check on how things were going; such attentiveness and genuine care that we were having a positive experience and if there was anything we needed along the way. They have such good hearts and exemplify Christian values! SUCH a phenomenal company to work with!

Make-A-Wish Trip with Kruger
I cannot say enough positive things about Kruger Park Travel! I am a Wish Coordinator for Make-A-Wish Colorado and came across Kruger Park Travel when we had a wish for a young girl whose wish was to visit Victoria Falls. I reached out to Kruger about some potential options and immediately got a supportive and excited response. They sponsored our wish child's wish and planned an amazing trip for her family. Kylie was so easy to work with and helped me with every question that I had. I wish I could use Kruger for every wish!
