Blink as many times as you want Yashin will make sure you see THE BIG FIVE! Adventure time!
Our safari in Kenya with this company was an unforgettable experience. We were lucky to see the Big Five, and every moment felt magical. The organization was excellent, with stunning places, great safety, and a very enjoyable atmosphere. The drivers were professional, friendly, and went beyond their role, truly becoming part of our journey. Thanks to them, we experienced the essence of a safari: being surrounded by pure nature while feeling safe and well cared for. It was a trip full of emotions and memories that we will never forget. We highly recommend this company to anyone.

He was very friendly, knowledgeable and clearly a hard worker.
My family and I had a great experience. We were surprised to find that our guide Colin spoke great Spanish! We loved seeing the animals and found the tour very enjoyable thanks to Colin. The organization from Rita was also great. We loved the experience and would do it again.

Axis Africa Expedition & Safaris delivered an unforgettable, well-organized safari experience.
I had an incredible experience with Axis Africa Expedition & Safaris. From start to finish, everything was smooth and well-coordinated. The team was professional, friendly, and went above and beyond to make sure every detail was taken care of. The guide was extremely knowledgeable about the wildlife and landscapes, making the trip not only exciting but also educational.
Seeing so many animals up close—including four of the Big Five—was an absolute highlight, and the way the guides ensured we had the best vantage points made the experience even more special. The trip was well-paced, comfortable, and truly showcased the beauty and diversity of the region.
I would highly recommend Axis Africa Expedition & Safaris to anyone looking for a once-in-a-lifetime safari adventure.

Wonderful experience
This safari exceeded all our expectations! The vehicles were comfortable, the lodges were wonderful, and the routes were perfectly chosen to give us the best possible experience. A very special thanks goes to our guide Peter Karpino, who was not only a fantastic driver but also a true wildlife expert. He always knew where to look for animals, shared fascinating stories, and gave us a real sense of Africa’s nature and culture. With Peter, we didn’t just go on a safari – we lived it. Absolutely recommend this agency to anyone who wants an authentic and unforgettable adventure!

A good memory
Our safari with this agency was truly unforgettable! Everything was perfectly organized from start to finish – quick communication, personalized planning, and flawless execution. Once on the trip, our guide Peter Karpino made all the difference. His deep knowledge of wildlife, sharp eye for spotting animals, and engaging way of explaining things turned every moment into a highlight. Thanks to Peter, we experienced breathtaking encounters with rhinos, elephants, and even lions. We couldn’t have asked for a better guide or a better agency. Highly recommended!

Nice people, good planning and a nice time.
The Safari was really good. Everything is planned really good and you spend a lot of your time in a national park. Our tour guide was Peter Kapino he is really kind and he has a really good knowledge about the animals and the national parks. I can only recommend booking your safari with Axis Africa.

Well Organised
We had a 7 day trip starting with Masai Mara, Lake Naivasha and ending in Amboseli. I got 3 different quotes and Axis definitely offered the best rates, even giving us a budget option, mid-range and luxury and we went with mid-range. Lucy from Axis was amazing, patient and so helpful. We communicated mainly via whatsapp which was convenient and she always responded even out of business hours, which she did not have to do but always got back to me. She was patient when we needed to add group members and when they had to cancel, gave me alternate accommodation options to review when we asked and really helped plan a great trip.
We had to pay a 30% deposit to secure our booking and had the option of only paying the balance on Day 1 of the safari but we opted to pay the balance before we arrival and this turned out to be a good decision - you are taken to Axis offices before you set off on safari and they were SO busy! So it was convenient that we had already paid.
There were long travel days in between locations but Ken was an amazing driver and really made an effort to get us there as early as possible and safely. He also did his utmost to get us a good sighting while on safari even amongst the many, many safari vehicles.
Overall I would definitely recommend Axis when choosing a tour operator to help plan your trip, they take out all the hassle and offered fair rates.

well organized tour operator, unprecedented experience at Masai Mara
Traveling to a distant place like Africa can be a little daunting, but the operator handled every concern with great care, making the experience completely worry-free.
1. Pre-Trip Support: A Reassuring Operator
Even before we booked, an operator, Tabitha, responded to my emails with prompt and sincere answers. She provided accurate information and helpful suggestions for all my questions, allowing me to prepare for my first time in Africa with complete peace of mind.
2. Our Amazing Guides: The Perfect Game Drives
Day 1: Our Experienced Guide, Amos
On the first day, our guide, Amos, was a seasoned veteran. He explained the animals and their behaviors in an easy-to-understand way. He was an expert at finding the best spots and angles for photos, so we never missed a perfect shot. He was also very friendly and listened carefully to our requests.
Day 2: The Animal Pro, Khaifa
Our guide on the second day, Khaifa, was a true expert who knew the Maasai Mara like the back of his hand. With his incredible intuition and unique network, he was able to find important animals like lions, cheetahs, and leopards without a radio communication. He created a special, private moment for us to observe and photograph the animals, making it a truly unforgettable experience. His background knowledge and driveing skills are awesome.
3. A Missed Migration across the river, But Still a Great Memory
Unfortunately, due to several days of rain, the Mara River had swollen and our Land Cruiser couldn't cross it, so we were unable to see the wildebeest migration in the river. We know this is a part of nature, so it was unavoidable.
To make up for it, Khaifa showed us a powerful video he had taken two weeks earlier, which allowed us to fully appreciate the moment.
such video can be seen in Youtube.
Thanks to the meticulous support before our trip and the local guides' passion and knowledge, this tour became an unforgettable experience. It was a perfect trip that turned our worries into a feeling of security and gave us an incredible sense of wonder beyond our expectations. I would definitely want to book this tour again.
