Magic
Along with 5 family members, I enjoyed a marvellous 9 days safari through Amboseli, Naivasha, Ol Pejeta, Nakuro and Masai Mara.
The backbone of the tour was our guide Mr. Collin Sempele. With enthusiasm, great route planning, regularly updating sightings, clear communication and constant attention to our comfort, he ensured that every viewing opportunity was explored. Our individual and collective wishlists were checked off 100% plus more.
I will forever cherish the life lessons I learnt from him in the course of our interaction over 9 memorable days.
Kenya is incredible 🌿

Exceptional safari experience, made unforgettable by our knowledgeable guide, Kelvin Ngamiya.
We had an absolutely wonderful safari experience with Axis Africa Expedition & Safaris. From the planning and communication to the actual game drives, everything was handled professionally and reliably.
A very special mention goes to our guide, Kelvin Ngamiya, who made our safari truly memorable. He is extremely knowledgeable, punctual, patient and attentive to every request. What impressed us most was his experience and tactical approach during game drives—he knew where to search, where to wait patiently and when it was time to move to another location.
Thanks to his efforts, we were fortunate enough to see the Big Five, including both black and white rhinos. Our sightings were incredible: around 22 lions, 2 leopards, a cheetah with a kill, elephants, buffaloes, giraffes, and many other animals.
The highlights went even beyond the Big Five. We witnessed wildebeest and zebras crossing the Mara River, as well as the dramatic sight of crocodiles catching a zebra and a wildebeest during the crossing. These were truly once-in-a-lifetime moments.
Kelvin also provided excellent information throughout the safari about the animals, their behaviour and the ecosystem. This added another dimension to the experience—we weren’t simply seeing wildlife; we were learning and understanding what was happening around us.
The overall service from Axis was dependable, well organized and good value for the experience we received. Our requests were taken seriously, timings were maintained, and we always felt that the team was making an effort to give us the best possible experience.
We came to Kenya with high expectations for the Masai Mara, and Axis Africa Expedition & Safaris, together with Kelvin Ngamiya, made the experience even better than we had imagined. We leave Kenya with some extraordinary memories and photographs that we will treasure for years.
Highly recommended, and a special thank you to Kelvin Ngamiya for making our safari such an unforgettable experience.

Tom our guide was wonderful
We had an amazing experience on our Maasai Mara safari, and a big part of it was because of our wonderful guide, Tom.
Tom was an excellent guide who explained everything in great detail and shared so much interesting and useful information with us throughout the trip. He knew all the routes very well and had an incredible knowledge of the area and the animals. He always knew where to go and where we had the best chances of spotting wildlife.
The safari itself was absolutely amazing and very special. We got to see so many incredible animals and learned a lot about the Maasai Mara and its wildlife. Tom made the whole experience even more enjoyable with his knowledge, patience and friendly nature.
Our stay was also excellent and everything was very well organised. Overall, it was a fantastic and unforgettable experience. We would definitely recommend Tom as a guide to anyone visiting the Maasai Mara. Thank you, Tom, for making our safari so special!

Excellent service, reliable communication, and an unforgettable safari experience!
Our safari experience with Axis Africa Expedition & Safaris was absolutely excellent from start to finish. The communication was clear, professional, and prompt, and the entire trip was very well organized.
A special mention goes to our excellent driver and guide, John Mwangi, who made our safari truly memorable. John was extremely knowledgeable, friendly, patient, professional, and always made sure we were comfortable. His knowledge of the wildlife, excellent driving skills, and ability to spot animals made every game drive an amazing experience.
The tour operator was reliable, flexible, and very supportive throughout the trip. Everything was well planned, and the service provided excellent value for money. We had an amazing time in Kenya and created unforgettable memories.
I would highly recommend Axis Africa Expedition & Safaris, and especially John Mwangi, to anyone planning a Kenya safari. Thank you for making our trip so special and enjoyable!

An unforgettable first safari experience!
A special thanks to our driver and guide, John Mwangi. He was very kind, attentive, and always made sure that everyone was comfortable throughout the trip. He was also excellent at finding animals and choosing great viewing spots during the game drives.
Everything was well organized, and all the hotels were exactly as booked. The accommodations were comfortable and in good condition, so I had no issues throughout the trip.
I traveled to Kenya alone as a female traveler, and I felt safe and well taken care of during the entire safari. I would definitely recommend Axis Africa Expedition & Safaris to other travelers, including solo female travelers.
One small tip for future travelers: game drives can get very dusty, so I highly recommend bringing a good protective face mask, like the ones we used during COVID. It will make the drives much more comfortable.
I actually bought a camera specifically for this trip, and after experiencing the safari, I have absolutely no regrets! It was such a memorable experience and a wonderful introduction to Africa. I would happily recommend this company to anyone planning a safari in Kenya.

Fantastic.
Mimi Kelvin was a great tour guide, plenty of knowledge about not only the animals but also the history of the national parks too. He was a skilled driver, getting us to the animals in good time and providing us with fantastic viewing angles too. Thank you Kelvin for a great experience

Available, flexible, professional and trustworthy
I highly recommend this experience. We choose Mara chui and lake nakuru lodges and we did not regret it at all! Everything was well organized: our guide, Edwin Laso, was always on time and rushed whenever he got a call for an animal so we were able to see almost all the big five on the first day! Also, he took us to washrooms at least once a day during the safari and more than that on the way to the park or back to nairobi. Also, we were never out of water inside the car! Moreover, food and rooms in the two lodges were great: hot water, cultural dances and great dinners. The whole agency has been available and flexible to any changes or anything we preferred during the booking process . I would definitely choos them again for another experience!
