Great! Went the extra mile for all we needed in the trip, BIG5in1day! Always in a good mood!
The service Axis provided corresponds to the description. They were very responsive the whole time, realiable pick-up in Nairobi, friendly services the whole time. The tour is worth doing to know Masai Mara. The lodge was modest, yet confortable and very clean. Peixes should be negotiated, as there are several companies doing the same packages for lower prices.

They were great, we had an incredible experience
It was an incredible experience and we saw sooooo much! We covered so much ground to see loads of animals which was amazing! My only negative is that we never really knew what was going on and we’re told times that weren’t stuck to, so we were hanging around a lot waiting and unsure when we’d leave or when we’d eat but this got better over the trip. Overall, I would recommend this! We loved our upgraded accommodation and have so many great photos with our memories!

Absolutely Amazing, Exceptionally Facilitating!
Absolutely Amazing and Facilitating!
Where do I begin? Safari with AxisAfrica was so much fun! We stayed at Lenchada Camp, which was so welcoming, and met all of our needs. The food and service was very good. Our Safari guide was John, who was equally brilliant and ensured that we go to see the Big 5, up close and personal!
Now the part that AxisAfrica did the best, was being facilitating and helpful. Unfortunately on the second night of Safari, I fell unwell with a severe migraine. In the morning, we were due to begin the 7 hour journey to Lake Nakuru for day 3 and 4 of the Safari. However, the very second sat in the car, I vomited. I knew I would not be able to make the journey. So I asked our guide John, whether there was any scope for my husband and I to forgo the rest of the Safari, and just stay at Lenchada camp, and then make our own way to the airport the next day. We explained that we would be happy to pay for any extra costs associated with this. AxisAfrica stated that they were happy to arrange for us to continue to stay at Lenchada camp for the night, and that they would arrange our transfer to the airport the next day, at no extra charge! This was super nice of them, considering we changed our plans at the very last second! This meant a lot to me, as I was understandably very upset at being so physically unwell, and the worry of having to do a 7 hour journey scared me. However, AxisAfrica were so facilitating and ensured that I remained comfortable no matter what.
Honestly, do not hesitate to book with AxisAfrica. They are absolutely brilliant! The campsite is amazing, as are the guides, alongside the office staff who are impeccable at quick communication.

Best tour operator, made our tour memorable
Booked Axis Africa Safaries for our 2N, 3D Masai Mara Safari from Nairobi. Driver was Khalifa. He is the one who had made our trip so special. He is very experienced, soft spoken and deep knowledge on lion and other animals of Masai Mara. We had seen lions on first day afternoon drive just for Khalifa. From Game Drive to Lenchada Tourist Camp, everything was just PERFECT. One can blindly book this tour operator without any hesitation.
Thank you Khalifa and Axis Africa.

Sir Charles is the best and most brilliant tour guide who showed us the animals from the best place
We loved it!We felt safe with our tour guide -Sir Charles-. He paid attention to everything, shared a lot of information with us about the animals. The tent accommodation was great! We would choose them again next time. Tito was our cook, the nicest person we have ever met.

Masai Mara is amazing!
Masai Mara national park is very scenic. And the experience of whole trip is very good. They are on time and the guide is very kind. Our guide, Steve, asked us our favorite animals before we started our safari. All of us said lion. And he did his best to track so many lions to let us see. We saw two male lions sleeping under the tree and we were only one meter away from them. They are super cute! Thanks Axis Africa Safari and Steve for giving me a wonderful memory.

Axis Africa is very professional, solution oriented and delivered everything promised. Delighted!
Right from our first conversation during the tour planning with Cynthia, we were guided through helpful recommendations. All queries were discussed in detail and answered promptly; during the day, evenings, sometimes at night - given the time zone difference. Axis Africa paid attention to every detail and managed our expectations with proper engagement, explanations and well-informed advice. Photographs of different camps, vehicles etc. were shared for us to arrive at a proper understanding of few unknowns. The overall organisation and coordination of the trip was outstanding. Our tour guide Andrew was extremely cooperative and took care of our needs at every step. His knowledge of every detail of the tour, planning and ability to curate to the best possible viewing made us derive much more from the tour.
The Mara experience is just fantastic; the sweeping plains and their expanse, the vast herd of animals and their diversity adds to the quality of the game viewing and the far reaching views made spotting easy. Our highlights were multiple sightings of pride of lions, group of elephants, cheetah with cubs, a tower of atleast a dozen giraffes; amongst the hippos, crocodiles, hyenas, countless zebras, deers, gazelles, antelopes & cape buffaloes.
To sum up, we had a memorable experience; an adventure that will etch into our memory forever - with Axis Africa managing our expectations superbly. Kenyan hospitality stands out and shows at every step! Thank you Axis Africa.

Utterly amazing experience
I booked the 4-day Masai Mara and Lake Nakuru package. The safari was unforgettable and totally worth it. Our Driver Richard as well as Rogers from the Axis Africa team made sure we had a pleasant time and a mesmerising adventure. Richard’s experience played a major role in having a seamless journey. We were able to see the big five and get close up shots of most of the animals. Even though I was only equipped with my smartphone, I was able to get the most of the experience and I took very nice pictures.
