Amazing experience
The experience was amazing! We were able to see the Big Five very quickly, and the guide put in a lot of effort to make sure we had this experience. He was always kind and kept asking if we were satisfied. It was our first safari, and I would definitely recommend it to others.
Peter Kapino is a great and experienced guide, made a great effort to show us best sightings
Trip was amazing. We did a 5 day safari and Peter was a very experienced guide that make an additional effort to help us see the best spots of the parks we went to. Communication was fast and good with the company, they picked up at our desired drop-off point. The meals were good, especially in the first campsite, the staff always very kind and helpful. Totally worth it, the budget version was gre ... Read moreat and did not feel budget at all!
Excellent safari with Peter kapino
Very nice experience seeing the Safari parks.
Our driver and guide Peter kapino has been very personable and accommodating during the trip.
Would highly recommended.
Five day budget safari, which was great value for money, apart from day five.
We were picked up from our hotel on the first morning before heading to the Axis Safari office for final payment. We were on the road with our group by 8:30am heading for Masai Mara. We arrived at our camp at lunch time, had lunch, before an evening game drive which was brilliant. Day two was a full days game drive in Masai Mara, before staying at the camp again. We saw four of the "big five" in t ... Read morehe Masai Mara (All except Rhinos). The camp was basic, but more than adequate for a budget Safari. We saw white and black Rhinos in Lake Nakuru National Park.
Our guide, Peter Kapino, was brilliant, with extensive knowledge of wildlife on the safari, as well as cultural knowledge when passing through the industrial and farming towns/villages. He was very approachable and answered all of our questions.
In terms of the additional activities, the Masai Village visit was worth the $20 to experience their culture and traditions, the boat ride in Lake Naivasha was not worth $20 extra (we didn't go to the island, so cannot comment on that), and the bike riding in Hells Gate National Park was good fun, we really got on with our group, so it was nice making new friends as the safari went on. Only real criticism would be that we felt our last day was cut short, two people in our party of eight were on a seven day safari, so were heading for Amboseli National Park, after dropping us back in Nairobi. This meant that day five effectively finished at 11am, with lunch at 11:15 (we weren't really hungry), and back to Nairobi just before 2pm. I suppose the operator was unable to make up a full car with a five day group, but was a bit of a shame.

Peter knows all the sweet spots, drives fast and safe.

A dream travel
I loved it from the moment we began our journey with Tabitath and Khalifa.
Everything else exceeded my expectations. Khalifa's attention to detail shows that he loves his job, and he made us feel it when he gave us unforgettable experiences that surpassed everything I could have imagined.

Spectacular experience
From the start, it was an incredible experience when Tabitath made the necessary changes due to our delayed flights. And then at their offices, they took great care of us.
