Once in a life time grand experience
Great service all around from emailing Lennox to our Safari driver Richard. Richard was an amazing guide. He found an amazing amount of wildlife and was very knowledgeable about them as well. He stopped and stayed as long as the group requested for photos. He got us amazingly close to all. We saw other safari vans where the people looked like they had paid a lot more and we were all viewing the same animals often times we were even closer. The Lenchada Camp was super clean and friendly. Lots of places to charge cell phones. Also convenient location within walking distance to the Masai Village. Actually preferred the camp to the Lanet Matfam Resort. Food was plentiful and beer was available for purchase. Richard drove safely through some tough terrain in the parks and on the main roads. I believe the good time was had by all. Wished we had booked a longer tour.

Amazing safari experience!
We had the best time. The guide Kikitu was the best we could have. So energetic and funny. He truly made it his mission to let us have a good time and with great succes. Everything was perfectly organised. We saw amazing wildlife(including the full big 5). And all of this for a very cheap price.

Safari tour in Kenya will be in our hearts forever
We did our seven days Safari tour with Axis company in August. The communication with tour agent Lennox was very fast. We had a little problem in Nairobi late in the evening and send an e-mail to him at midnight. We received his answer in 10 minutes! We want to give Lennox special thanks.
Our trip was well organized and planned. We think our driver John is the best one. He is very communicative and open-minded. John is a careful and skilfull driver. He is also a good guide. He could answer all our questions. He showed us a lot of animals. We could take beautifil pictures. There were 8 people in the car and the atmosphere was friendly. The accomodation was good, we also liked the local food. But we didn't like the camp in Amboseli, the houses were shabby, no furniture in the room except a bad bed. When we entered the room there was a lizard on the ceiling.
We want to give our best regards Axis tour company and wish them prosperity and all the best.

Great safaritour with Kikitu
MR. Lennox helped us to book a private
familysafari tour for 6 persons with our great guide Kikitu in our own car. Lennox helped us also to make the Tour includ the Karen Blixen museum. We were picked up at our hotel Jewel Stone Fourth parklans avenue in Nairobi at 8 a clock in the morning on the 29th of august.
We have had a great Safaritour with our guide Kikitu. He took good care of us and we saw the Big five. We have visit the Masai and the Karen Blixen farm.
We have had a great time with Kikitu.

Nice experience
We had 3-day safari in Masai Mara with Axis. The communication with Lennox was very fast. Our guide was excellent. He knew a lot of information about animals and he was very skilled driver. The accommodation and food in the camp was very good and we were nicely surprised. There was the only thing that was not as promised. Before I booked our trip, I had asked whether all people in a car would have a window seat and Lennox promised it. And guess what? My husband didn´t have his own window. He sat in the middle and could use only a roof window. Moreover, there was not enough space for three people standing in one row and looking out from the roof window, so my husband and me had to rotate.

Trusted Operator
Everything was really great, starting from e-mail conversation and informations provided before our trip (Lennox was our tour agent), until the day we were back from the safari. Our driver John knew literally everything what we wanted to know about animals, trip, place... Tent accommodation was excellent with bathroom attached. Food was fine as well. Only thing that we didn't like was our accomodation in Naivasha (unfortunately I can't remember the name if "resort"). That was faaaaaar from the resort, with extremely rude lady working there, with very limited meals and horrible rooms. If you want to get a beer there and you don't have exactly 300ksh, you're in a big trouble cause she said it's our problem and that we have to solve it, not her. They don't accept bigger bills, and they don't have Credit Card machine.
Besides that, everything was perfect and highly recommended!

Awesome safari experience with kids in Kenia
The agency communication with us was great, they answered our requests very fast. They prepared the trip schedule according to our wishes and family features (a couple with 3 kids) , and they sent all the details and quotation pretty soon so that we could make changes. The method of payment was flexible .
The guide, Kikitu, was really cool, especially with the kids, trying to meet our expectations all the time.
The only improvement point from our side was the car. It was old and had no security belts

Fun and affordable 3 day safari
We did a 3 day tour of Masai Mara with Soloman as our tour guide and had a great time! He picked us up at our Airbnb In Nairobi and returned us to our next accommodation which made things easy. Throughout the trip all meals were included, usually buffet style at places along the way (typical Kenyan food which we all enjoyed). At the park we saw many animals including giraffes, zebras, elephants, lioness and their cubs, rhinos, wildabeast (beginning their migration), etc. Soloman was knowlegable, patient, and made sure we were able to get close views of the animals. The park was beautiful and it was exciting tracking and sporting the animals. Our accommodations were also very comfortable. The tents included electricity and a bathroom with a toilet and shower (basically glamping). The security at the campground were Masai people and we also got to take a tour of their neighboring village. All in all we had a great time for a great price and we were able to see a lot in 3 days.

Great experience
I asked for a few quotes and Lennox answered very quickly and was very helpfull. He gave me a very good impression and I chose to do the safari with Axis. Everthing was great, specially our guide Kikitu who always had a smile on his face and was very helpful.
I recommend Axis and Kikitu with confidence.
Thank you!!

Great experience with caring guide
We took the 4 days bush-to-beach Safari, starting from Nairobi and ending in Mombasa, through three national parks. I must admit I was a bit nervous because it was our first safari and we were traveling with a young child. Lennox was quite helpful in preparing the trip and giving advices, and that's why i selected this tour.
In fact, the experience was superb. The lodges were extremely well located, the car was comfortable. We saw a lot of animals, and our guide John was extremely caring and supportive since the first day, during the travel and during the game drives. Most important, he has always found a way to be on the spots before the other cars... thanks to him we even managed to see a group of 12 lionesses and lion cubs! At the end, we would have loved to continue a couple of days more.
