First of all, the Masai Mara National Park is worth the trip, and we were lucky enough to see many unique animals, even the rare leopards. The tour was well organized, the food at camp was delicious, and the tented accommodations were simple but adequate. Our guide, Roger, is generally rather reserved, but a fantastic driver and explained a lot to us about the animals we saw. We would recommend hi ... Read morem!

We had an unforgettable trip with Axis! As a young couple traveling on a budget, we were really happy with the value and experience they provided. Huge thanks to Monica for taking care of everything—finding a guide, organizing our itinerary, and even booking our train tickets. Shoutout to our awesome guides and driver, Jack Kolet and Peter Brown, for making the journey even more enjoyable. We hi ...

Khalifa was a great guide who was well connected inside the park, had a family of lions all to ourselves at one point.
The only downside maybe was that the car was big enough for 9 people and there was 9 people inside. The back having 3 seats so sitting in the middle wouldn't have been so much fun. I sat beside the driver had had the best view though so can't complain.
Our safari with Axis Safaris was an absolute dream! From the moment we arrived, everything was perfectly organized—seamless logistics, a knowledgeable guide, and top-tier service.

Our safari vehicle was not only comfortable but also well-equipped with enough water for the entire day’s game drives. What truly stood out was how well-connected our guide Kevin was with other drivers. Whenever someone spotted a rare sighting, we were informed instantly, ensuring we never missed a moment. We saw the Big Five, witnessed a breathtaking wildebeest crossing, and had the chance to observe a group of cheetahs peacefully resting under a tree—an unforgettable sight!We were also lucky to witness a powerful lion gang patrolling their territory.Kevin stopped at the perfect spots, giving us ample time to capture breathtaking moments and wildlife with satisfaction. His insightful explanations about the Maasai Mara’s wildlife and ecosystem added immense value to our experience.
Lunch by the Mara River was a special experience, surrounded by stunning landscapes. The guided walking tour along the river, spotting hippos and crocodiles up close (from a safe distance!), added an extra thrill to the adventure.
Every aspect of the trip was exceptional. The accommodations they arranged were top-notch, blending luxury with the raw beauty of nature.
I highly recommend Axis Safaris to anyone looking for a well-organized, safe, and thrilling Maasai Mara adventure. They truly go above and beyond to make your safari a lifetime memory!
I would definitely recommend it to go on. I presume all your guides are very good but you definitely could not get any better than Peter. We got see so much animals and learned so much about them all.
Amazingly helpful company and tour operation who were available for any question or query pre my start date.
