Wonderful big 5 experience!!!
5/5

An excellent safari experience in the Masai Mara. Raimond was a fantastic driver—professional, experienced, attentive, knowledgeable, and always helpful.
Both the afternoon game drive and the one the following day were highly successful; we saw the "Big Five" while maintaining a respectful and cautious approach toward the environment.
AXIS Agency proved to be professional, reliable, and well-organized. Highly recommended for a Masai Mara safari.

Five Incredible Days and a Guide Who Made the Trip
5/5

Axis support team were very incredible, helpful and making booking easy,

We spent five days exploring Masai Mara, Lake Naivasha and Lake Nakuru with Axis Africa, and it was genuinely one of the highlights of our trip to Kenya.

The safari was very well organized, communication was easy, and everything went smoothly throughout the five days. Each destination had something different to offer, but Masai Mara was definitely unforgettable.

A huge part of why we enjoyed the trip so much was our guide. He was exceptional from the first day until the last. He was friendly, professional, knowledgeable and, most importantly, genuinely passionate about making sure we had a great experience.

He put a lot of effort into every game drive, constantly looking for wildlife and taking us to the best possible spots. His knowledge of the animals and the parks was impressive, and he was always happy to answer our questions. You could tell that he wasn’t simply doing his job — he actually wanted us to experience the best of Kenya.

We also spent many hours driving together over the five days, and his personality made a huge difference. He was easygoing, funny and patient, and by the end of the safari it felt more like we had been traveling with a friend than just a tour guide.

The whole experience was worth it, but our guide is what turned a very good safari into an unforgettable one. I would happily book with Axis Africa again, and if I had the choice, I would specifically ask for the same guide.

Highly recommended!

An Unforgettable Safari With an Exceptional Guide
5/5

We had an amazing 5-day safari through Masai Mara, Lake Naivasha and Lake Nakuru, and the entire experience exceeded my expectations.

Everything was well organized from start to finish, but what really made the trip special was our guide. He was absolutely outstanding — professional, friendly, patient and incredibly knowledgeable about the wildlife and the areas we visited. He genuinely cared about giving us the best possible experience rather than simply following an itinerary.

During the game drives, he always seemed to know where to go and made a real effort to help us see as much wildlife as possible. He explained the animals, their behavior and the surroundings in a way that made the safari much more interesting. He was also a very good driver, which matters a lot when you’re spending several days and many hours on the road.

What impressed me most was his attitude throughout the entire trip. He was always positive, accommodating and willing to go the extra mile for us. We never felt rushed, and he made the five days feel like an adventure with a friend rather than just a guided tour.

Masai Mara was incredible, and Lake Naivasha and Lake Nakuru each brought something different to the experience. Overall, the trip was excellent value and created memories I will keep for a long time.

I would absolutely recommend Axis Africa Expedition & Safaris, and especially our guide. If I return to Kenya for another safari, I would genuinely want to travel with him again. 10/10 experience.

Best Experience Ever!!
5/5

The tour was exceptional. The management and planning of it was great. Our guide Yasin was incredible. We were very lucky to be guided by a senior safari guide and took us to all the spots to get the best animal sightings. His knowledge was incredible. The hotels were very nice too. Will highly recommend!

Very professional organization and a top experience
4/5

We went on a 6 days safari to Masai Mara, lake Nakuru and Amboseli. It was a wonderful experience, though next time I would choose only to do Masai Mara and Lake Nakuru due to the very long transport to Amboseli.
The first 4 days we spent with the tour guide John Mwangi and he is an excellent guide, very friendly, serviceminded and knowledgeable. We had a great time with him and learned a lot about the wildlife.
We had a very contact with Axis before and after the booking. All questions were with in a rapid and professional way.

Wonderful experience!
5/5

We went for a 6 days Safari to Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru and Amboseli. It was a fantastic experience and even better than I imagined. It was a long way between the 3 sites, another time we would rather do Masai Mara and Lake Nakuru alone to avoid the long rides. We got to see so much of Africa’s fauna. John Mwangi Was our guide, he was very friendly, service minded and told us many interesting things along the way, always calm and patient. The car was clean.

5/5

Fantastic experience in Kenya with Axis Africa Safaris!

​Our safari with Axis Africa Safaris was simply flawless and unforgettable. The organization was excellent, but what made the trip truly special was our guide, Mimi Kelvin. With great expertise, patience, and passion for nature, Mimi allowed us to spot so many animals and fully enjoy every single moment. I highly recommend this agency, and especially the guide Mimi Kelvin, to anyone looking to go on a safari in Kenya!

Everything was Perfect under every point of view. This Journey will remain in my heart!
5/5

Everything was perfect, just as the agency described before departure. The lodges were as magnificent as I expected, and at some you could even stay among the animals roaming freely around the rooms. But the greatest credit goes above all to the guide, Mimi Kelvin, who made this experience unique! A driver who flies across the tracks as if he invented them himself, capable of sniffing out animals even before they appear and ready to turn every request of yours into the perfect unexpected detour. Thanks to him, we saw all the Big Five and were able to capture incredible scenes that I will remember forever!! Thank you
