It's thoughtful and planned.
As for Erick, when we making the trip schedule, he always reply us very soon, and also can give us really helpful advice. When we choosing the hotel and camp,(a comfortable night is very important after all day safari.) he shows many photos and explain more to us. He makes a wonderful plan according to our requirements.
As for our guide CHAMPION!!, i already recommend him to my friends if they come Tanzania in the future. Actually, for guide,they have already seen so many amazing animals many times,but CHAMPION still has enthusiasm to help us finding all the animals we want to see. Also, during the road trip,he always tells some stories about Tanzania history,and some native language to us. His patience and humor make me really enjoy this trip.
In short, choosing Tanzania for our honeymoon this time was truly worthwhile. If there's another chance to visit in the future, I would still choose Serengeti smile and CHAMPION without hesitation.

Amaziiiing
I highly recommend Lindo Travel!
My friend and I (two female travelers from Canada) hiked both Mount Kilimanjaro and the Oldonyo Lengai volcano with this company, and everything went wonderfully.
The organization was flawless, and the entire team was incredibly kind and supportive throughout the expedition. We never lacked anything.
A special thank you to Stephan, who was always available and quick to respond whenever we had a question or concern. He made sure we felt safe every step of the way — and that, to us, is priceless.
The food was also very good, which made the whole experience even more enjoyable.
All in all, it was an unforgettable adventure thanks to a professional and genuinely caring team. Thank you, Lindo Travel!

Serengeti Smile is great!
An Unforgettable Tanzanian Safari Experience
We are absolutely thrilled with our recent Tanzanian safari, and it would not have been possible without the exceptional planning of Erick from your sales team. Thank you, Erick, for crafting such a perfect and seamless itinerary for us. We were incredibly satisfied with every detail, from the comfortable accommodations to the well-paced game drives.
The safari itself was beyond our wildest dreams. We were blessed to witness the magnificent Big Five in their natural habitat, a true privilege. The highlight, however, had to be the awe-inspiring spectacle of the Great Wildebeest Migration, where we watched thousands of wildebeest bravely crossing the river—a moment we will cherish forever. Every single day was filled with excitement and joy, offering new and breathtaking sightings.
A huge part of our enjoyment was thanks to our guide, Champion. His expertise and incredible "eagle eyes" were unmatched; he always seemed to be the first to spot animals, from a leopard camouflaged in a tree to a pride of lions resting in the distance. His knowledge, passion for wildlife, and friendly demeanor made our trips both educational and immensely fun. We felt completely safe and in the best hands throughout the journey.
We cannot recommend Champion highly enough. Thank you for an unforgettable adventure that exceeded all our expectations. We will be dreaming of our return to Tanzania!

The company is not professional with minimum customer care
George Killas, owner of Terrain Tanzania Safaris, left us completely unsupported during multiple trip failures—and never took responsibility.
After a full day of travel, our group (which included elderly family members) was denied check-in. The hotel informed us that George had failed to make payment, even though he had told us everything was confirmed. Later on, he tried to explain the situation and then we realized that he knew this could happen weeks ago but chose not to inform us.
When the hotel rejected the voucher, George told us to “just show it again” and dropped the call. We spent over an hour begging hotel staff to let us stay while he did nothing. It was humiliating, stressful, and completely avoidable.
Throughout the trip, George showed no accountability. From disappearing during emergencies to making excuses instead of solutions, he abandoned us when we needed him most.
We booked this trip expecting reliable support and coordination from a trusted safari company. Instead, we were met with negligence, dishonesty, and total lack of professionalism.
Do not book with this company. George will take your money—and leave you stranded.

They are scammers! Stay away from them
I paid an advance of 257USD back in April for an3 days safari to Masai Mara in September. In the 3rd week of August, he sents me a msg saying he has to cancel the safari and he will initiate the refund.
And then I have tried to text him, no more responses. I had to pay another operator to do my safari, but these never got back

Dishonest company
DO NOT BOOK!!! They scammed us out thousands of dollars! My husband and I booked a 5 day honeymoon safari, paid in full, through them in January and checked in with them a few weeks before arrival to make sure everything was confirmed and our itinerary was set- to which they reassured us it was. Upon arriving at our 2nd nights accommodation we found out not only was that hotel not paid for but the rest of the accommodations, park fees and driver were also not paid! They claimed they are having money issues and the “bank took the funds”. We have not been issued a refund despite them saying we would be receiving one. I encourage everyone that has been scammed by them as well to contact the tourism police and file a claim. They should be held accountable!

The safari was amazing, Axis Africa was a great tour group
Tabitha was very easy to work with to set up the safari, coordinating all the logistics, deposits, and hotel pickup. Msaga was an excellent and friendly tour guide, who has decades of experience and knows a lot about the Masai Mara and the animals. The lodge that we stayed in, Wild Nest Mara Camp, was clean and the food was really good. Overall, this was an amazing experience and Axis Africa made everything run smoothly. The overall price was very reasonable.

Wonderful experience seeing Rwanda
We were in Rwanda for a gorilla trek and Mansoor was with us for the entire duration - taking us to and from Kigali airport, many hotel pick up and drop offs, showing us around the Kigali, and accompanying us to Volcanoes National Park. He was extremely reliable and knowledgeable, sharing with us the Rwanda culture and history. He spent a lot of time explaining the gorilla trekking process to us as well and got us a great trek option. I loved hearing him talk about the Kwita Izina, which is the gorilla naming ceremony held once a year. Unfortunately, we just missed this year’s by one day, which means we’ll have to come back and will definitely book Mansoor again!
