Bavuma is handson with our trip
My African safari was truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Every part of the trip felt thoughtfully planned and personalized to my interests, making it much more than just a vacation— big thanks to Joshua! The guides were incredibly knowledgeable and passionate, sharing fascinating insights about the wildlife and local culture while ensuring every game drive was exciting and memorable. Our guide in Kenya, Ian, was very fluent in english and whatever i ask him about the wildlife in Masai Mara, he has very satisfying answers and has a very keen eye in spotting animals. Ludo, our guide in Serengeti is friendly and somewhat funny. He makes the dusty and bumpy road bearable. Seeing animals in their natural habitat was breathtaking, and each day brought new adventures and unforgettable moments. The accommodations were comfortable, the hospitality was exceptional, and the attention to detail made the entire journey seamless. We, too, explored and enjoyed the beautiful zanzibar beaches and had a very relaxing day or two. I returned home with amazing memories, stunning photos, and a deeper appreciation for Africa's incredible landscapes and wildlife. I highly recommend this experience to anyone looking for an authentic, unique, and unforgettable adventure. A once in a lifetime trip anyone should have!

Exceeded Every Expectation - Amazing 12-Day Safari!
An Unforgettable 12-Day Safari Experience with African Big Cats.
Our safari with African Big Cats exceeded every expectation. From the very beginning, we knew we were in good hands. We booked through SafariBookings, and William was our first introduction. He was extremely helpful and made us feel confident right away. Once we booked, Naomi was there to answer every question we had about the details of our safari before we even got on the plane.
On the ground, Emmanuel and Martin took excellent care of us. Emmanuel, the Managing Director was fabulous. He set expectation clearly, checked in with us, and made sure our experience was everything we hoped for.
Our guide, Martin, was absolutely amazing! I truly cannot image a more capable guide or a better person to spend 12 days with. He knows so much about the animals, birds, land, history, culture, and people of Tanzania. He was respectful, easy to be with, and incredibly knowledgeable. He always seemed to know the right time and place for the best photographs, and he worked hard to make sure we saw all the animals we hoped to see.
The accomodations were outstanding at every stop. We had great food, comfortable beds, and excellent service everywhere we stayed.
This safari was very well priced and still managed to exceed every expectation. African Bid Cats delivered a truly unforgettable experience, and I highly recommend them to anyone planning a safari.

Very responsive, approachable, good price, interesting programs and offers
I contacted MJ Safaris & Adventure for organizing a enough long tour of Africa. Initially, I was planning only safaris and jungle treks in Uganda and Tanzania for 2 weeks, but while discussing the trip details, my "appetite" grew, and i decided to add a climbing to Kilimanjaro summit and the final tour duration became 21 days. It was my first time visiting mainland Africa, so I spent a long time choosing a tour company for organising this adventure for me, trusted my intuition, and was absolutely right. From my inquiry, to the subsequent discussion of details, to the organization, the guides, and all the little details along the way, everything was top-notch; I was absolutely delighted. It's been two weeks since I returned from the trip, and I already miss the unique African vibe, the breathtaking landscapes, and the very friendly and helpful people. It was a wonderful adventure and I will definitely repeat it again. Thank you to the entire MJ Safaris & Adventure team for such unforgettable experiences and emotions.
Plus, I want to add that for me, as a very passionate photographer, this trip was a real gold mine - I brought back thousands of wonderful pictures, and I plan to organize my own photo exhibition.

Excellent Safari Experience – Professional Team and Amazing Wildlife Encounters
We joined the 3-Day Masai Mara Adventure group safari with Axis Africa Safaris and had an excellent experience from beginning to end.
The booking and communication process was smooth and efficient thanks to Tabitha Mwangi from Sales Support. She was extremely responsive and helpful before and after booking. She clearly explained the different safari packages and options available and answered all our questions regarding the trip details. Her support gave us confidence and made planning easy.
Our guide and driver, Yasin, played a huge role in making this safari unforgettable. He is highly knowledgeable, experienced, and dedicated to giving guests the best wildlife experience possible.
During the game drives, Yasin continuously stayed connected on the radio network to receive updates about wildlife locations and movements. His quick coordination and excellent knowledge of the park allowed us to arrive at sightings at the right time and enjoy fantastic, clear views of the animals.
Beyond wildlife spotting, Yasin shared useful information about the animals and made every drive engaging and enjoyable.
The overall safari was well organized and delivered exactly what we hoped for and more. We left with amazing memories and would definitely recommend Axis Africa Safaris to anyone looking for a well-managed and enjoyable Masai Mara safari experience.
Thank you to Yasin and Tabitha for making our first Safari trip so special.

Every game drive was exciting, and Yasin made sure we had the best possible wildlife viewing opportunities while sharing interesting facts about the animals and the Masai Mara.

Excellent service, professional guides, and an unforgettable safari experience.
This was truly an unforgettable safari experience! Our guide Siloam was incredibly friendly, professional, and highly experienced. Throughout the trip, he always made sure we were comfortable and even provided us with complimentary bottled water and soft drinks every day, which we really appreciated. Our travel consultant Johnson was also incredibly professional and enthusiastic, and was a tremendous help throughout the planning and consultation process.
He guided us through both Central and Western Serengeti with great knowledge and patience. Thanks to his excellent tracking skills and dedication, we were fortunate enough to see Africa’s Big Five, which made this journey even more special.
We are sincerely grateful for all the hard work, care, and effort he put into making our safari such an amazing experience. Thank you for creating memories that will stay with us for a lifetime. We highly recommend him to anyone planning a safari in Tanzania!

A memory for life
Our 7-day safari through Amboseli, Maasai Mara, and Lake Naivasha was truly beyond words – a deeply magical journey that touched something in me I didn’t even know was there.
James was so much more than a guide. He is incredibly knowledgeable and shared rich insights about the wildlife, the land, and also about Kenyan society and politics, which gave every moment a deeper meaning and context. But what makes James truly exceptional is not only what he knows – it is how he makes you feel.
With him, you don’t just observe the animals from a distance. You are invited into their world. You begin to feel them, understand them, and connect with them in a way that feels almost sacred.
James carries such a genuine love for his work, the animals, and nature itself that it becomes almost contagious. You feel it in every pause, every story, every quiet moment of watching the wild unfold.
I leave with a heart full of gratitude. Grateful for the experience, for the beauty we witnessed, and for being gently welcomed into James’ world – a world shaped by deep respect, humility, and love for Mother Earth.
