Kenya – a country and its people that are well worth getting to know

5 / 5 5 /5
5 / 5 5 / 5 5 / 5 5 / 5

We thought Kenya and its people were wonderful. We were fascinated by the people’s calm demeanour. The landscape was breathtaking. We had booked a safari in the Maasai Mara, Lake Naivasha und Lake Nakuru including Hells Gate. We were pleasantly surprised by the vastness, the high mountains and the fact that the Maasai Mara lies at over 2,000 metres above sea level. We’d always thought Kenya was flat and hot, but we had very pleasant temperatures of around 30 degrees. We saw the Big Five and our driver was brilliant. The staff at all the hotels were very friendly and always helpful and the hotels themselves were all very clean and well-maintained.
A tip for anyone planning to visit Kenya: book an Uber, or take a tuk-tuk or motorbike, but don’t drive a car yourself. The traffic in the cities is not for the faint-hearted, and the roads are often in poor condition.

Unforgettable Safari Experience with Incredible Wildlife and Sunsets

5 / 5 5 /5

Kenya exceeded all my expectations. We were incredibly lucky to see four of the "Big Five" (everything except the rhino), along with rare sightings like the Serval cat, which was a real highlight.
The accommodations were outstanding. The lodge provided exceptional hospitality, even upgrading my stay, which made my trip truly special. The quality of the food was consistently high and very impressive.
To top it all off, the sunset we witnessed in the Maasai Mara was the most beautiful I have ever seen in my life. I highly recommend Kenya to any nature and wildlife lover!

Mamut, our guide, was very knowledgeable and helpful. The lodges were great, and we saw almost all the animals. A fantastic safari! Thank you!

Visiting Kenya as the main destination for my 2026 vacation was the best decision I could have made. The country is rich in history, with fascinating museums, archives, and incredible wildlife destinations, including its renowned national parks.

I had the opportunity to visit the Masai Mara, where I saw the Big Five and immersed myself in the culture of the Maasai tribe an experience that truly blew my mind. In addition, I went on a safari with Axis Safari, who made sure I experienced the region’s extraordinary wildlife up close.
Don’t hesitate in choosing Kenya as your next destination…

We make masai mara, amboseli, nairobi NP. All were great. But in march at amboseli are very less elephants. I would recommend masai mara and nairobi (with Lots of rhinos).
Great experience

I did a safari in Kenya and it was an amazing experience from start to finish. Everything was perfectly organized, with great attention to detail and constant support throughout the trip.

The safari was private, and having him as our guide the whole time made a huge difference. He was always available, very knowledgeable, and made the experience truly personal and authentic.

We saw so many animals and enjoyed unforgettable moments, all in complete safety and comfort. Top-level service in every aspect — highly recommended for anyone looking for a well-organized and exclusive safari experience.
