Reviews
Amboseli , Mara, Naivasha, Nakuru : Absolument génial.
Mr. Kiambati was our guide and driver throughout our stay in Kenya. He is a very experienced driver, and Kenyan roads can sometimes be challenging. The A109 between Nairobi and Mombasa is heavily used by trucks, while the other paved roads also have their fair share of surprises.
On safari, Robert is truly the “eyes and ears of the savannah”. Always highly focused on the tracks and attentive to the slightest signs of animal presence, he gave us an unforgettable experience. We probably saw the widest possible range of local wildlife — from the safety of our vehicle, of course, as walking through tall grass to admire the determination of a dung beetle is still not particularly advisable!
He knows exactly how to position his vehicle, while fully respecting the safety rules in force in the parks, as close as possible to the “action”. At the same time, he understands and respects the priorities and unwritten rules that exist between safari drivers. Quick and responsive when necessary, he also knows when to slow down and let us enjoy the peace, quiet and vastness of the landscapes we were travelling through.
His academic knowledge of the wildlife and species found across the African continent was extremely enlightening. As an academic specialist in ornithology, but also a passionate expert on the great cats, he can tell you all about the different lion prides of the Maasai Mara — and you will absolutely love listening to him.
His many friendships with researchers, park rangers, guides from other companies, as well as with the many people we met during our stay, were not only evidence of the respect and authority he has earned, but also a guarantee that we would receive a warm welcome wherever we went.
Finally, the time we spent talking with him in the vehicle about history, geology, politics and everyday life in Kenya allowed us to gain an even deeper appreciation and understanding of this wonderful country.
For all these reasons, I would recommend Robert and Axis Africa without hesitation. A huge THANK YOU to him and all the team of Axis once again for helping us discover Kenya. We sincerely hope to return one day!

Professional, responsive, and very flexible agency; wonderful guide
From our very first conversations with Tabitha to the end of our safari, everything went wonderfully smoothly.
A huge thank you to our fantastic guide, Robert Kiambati, who played a major role in making this experience such a success, thanks to his extensive knowledge of wildlife — from the smallest bird to the different prides and the lions we encountered belonged to.
His passion for the history of his country (and beyond), as well as geography, geology, anthropology, and so much more, made every day even more fascinating.
And, of course, his particular love of sunrises and sunsets gave us the opportunity to capture some truly magnificent photos ! Thank you again...

Amazing experience, no words to describe it…
An absolutely unforgettable trip, the kind that changes something within you and stays with you for life. I never expected that I could possibly fall in love with a country like this. A huge thank you to our guide Robert, who made the trip even more special. A kind man, devoted to his job. He shared his passion for animals with us and did everything possible to put us in the best spot at the right time. I leave this country with a thousand pictures and incredible memories. I would also like to thank Axis Africa, who organized our stay perfectly from the beginning to the very end.
It was worth every penny.😁😁

A lot of fun, one of the best experience of my life
Everything went very well with Axias Safari, the organization was perfect.
We had a guide, Robert, who never stopped making this trip better.
Robert always made sure that everything went as well as possible, always finding the best spots to see the animals and the sunrise/sunset. He was very careful, had exceptional knowledge of the parks, was very adaptable, and took great care of us.
Thank you, Robert!
We had so much fun. I’m already thinking about coming back asap!
