Unforgettable Experience
We did a 3 day safari to Maasai Mara with Axis and it couldn’t have been better. They picked us up at our hotel and drove us to their office to take care of the logistical issues.
Afterwards, we started our trip with Hassan, our driver and guide, who was very friendly from the start. Despite the bumpy road it is a very beautiful ride and whenever we had any questions, our guide answered us.
That same day we did an afternoon safari, starting at 4pm, where we got to see some animals very close. Afterwards we went to our camp (Sankale Camp) to have dinner and sleep and the food was very tasty and the accommodation was pretty decent. It definitely is an immersive experience, as you could hear the baboons at night.
The second day was a full day safari, where we had breakfast early, and the Camp packed us up our lunch to have at the Maasai Mara. It was an unforgettable day, as we got to see leopards, lions, cheetahs and even a serval cat, which is a rare sighting. Our guide, despite not always communicating to us where we were going, always took chances and search for the best opportunities to see the animals up close. We didn’t get the zebras crossing the Mara River, because when we arrived some zebras that were beginning to cross saw the crocodiles and got spooked up and returned. Despite that, it was still amazing to see all of the action at the river, and Hassan was very knowledgeable about every aspect of the animals we asked him.
The last day we returned to Nairobi, although in retrospect we could’ve done the 4 day safari with Axis and go to Lake Naivasha and Nakuru. Still it was amazing and so much so, we did a second tour with Axis the following day to go to Lake Naivasha and Crescent Island.
This second tour was one day and a private tour, and although I feel we could have spend more time at Crescent Island, it still was incredible. Our driver that day (George) was also very nice and even stopped on our back to have the most beautiful picnic in the Great Rift Valley, you couldn’t beat that view for a lunch!
Axis seems a great young people led company with a lot of concern and respect for their costumers and as Hassan said to us “no game drive is the same”, so we might have not seen the zebras crossing but we saw a serval cat and got really close to some beautiful animals! It was wonderful and a one in a lifetime experience!

Skilful driver with lots of knowledge about Kenya and the animals and very polite.
We had an absolutely incredible safari experience with Peter Kapino as our guide. He always went above and beyond to take us to the best spots to get impressively close to the animals, navigating the terrain with great skill and always making sure we were comfortable and safe.
For full transparency, the boat trip cost twenty dollars, but it was absolutely worth every penny for the experience. The Hell's Gate Park visit came to twenty-five dollars, which included a fifteen-dollar bike rental (a bit expensive) and a ten-dollar entry fee, but allowed for a truly unique adventure. There was no other added values to the initial fees.
As for accommodations, the hotels at Nakuru (Buraha Zenoni) and in the Masai Mara (Ntulele Camp) were fantastic. However, the hotel in Naivasha (Apex Resort) was a bit below standard, despite the food being good, so we would suggest considering an upgrade there if you are looking for that extra level of comfort.

FANTASTIC TRIP
This Kenya safari across Masai Mara and Amboseli turned out to be the trip of a lifetime. Our fantastic guide Peter Kapino was incredibly knowledgeable and observant, spotting lions, elephants, cheetahs and the full Big Five effortlessly during sunrise and sunset game drives. The vast savannah with Mount Kilimanjaro as the backdrop offered breathtaking, one-of-a-kind natural views.
Our 4×4 vehicle was comfortable and well-maintained, and lodges served tasty local dishes with warm hospitality.Every travel plan went smoothly without trouble. Filled with stunning wildlife and genuine African charm, this safari far exceeded all my expectations. I strongly recommend it to anyone eager for real wilderness adventures.

Wonderful safari in Kenya
Peter kapino is an excellent tour guide, and I really recommend him as your first choice to Kenya Safari.
This Kenya safari turned out to be the trip of a lifetime, far beyond all my expectations. Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable, skilled at spotting hidden wildlife and explaining every animal’s habit patiently. We witnessed the full Big Five, massive elephant herds.
The whole schedule was well-organized without rushing. Comfortable safari vehicles and cozy lodges let us fully enjoy wild adventures. Local staff were warm and welcoming, bringing us close to authentic African culture. Every game drive was thrilling yet peaceful. I left with countless precious photos and lifelong memories. I strongly recommend this safari to anyone craving genuine wilderness magic and will definitely come back someday.

Very good organisation with open mind
Good choice of the parks and all the variations and options were accepted with kindness and professional aid.
All what not safe would denied, for ex. to go out of the car in the park or to go alone in the supermatket after sunset. A very good and comfortable safari for a rational price.
