The experience was great. The tour guide was especially good. He was kind and seemed to be enjoying seeing the animals as much as we do. He was telling us things about them and commenting on their behaviour which I found very nice. He also spotted EVERYTHING. There was more than a few cases where we wouldn't have seen an animal if it weren't for him quickly pointing it out. He was also in general warm and even helped us out by driving us to the airport so we could collect delayed baggage.
The car was good as far as safari cars go. It was relatively comfortable and everything seemed well maintained.
The lodge they booked for us was also amazing. Everything from the food to the gift shop was fantastic.
Overall a great experience I would definetly recommend.

Kind, communicative and with a sharp eye (he spotted all the animals).
We had an amazing safari experience. We were able to see many different animals. Our guide Dan was great and shared lots of interesting information about the animals. The lodge was also beautiful and exceeded our expectations. Everything was well organized from start to finish, and considering everything that was included, the tour was very reasonably priced.

The best of the best!
I spent 3 nights in the Masai Mara after my Nairobi adventure, also with Axis Africa. Patrick was my guide for my safari game drives. He was so amazing! I am a young solo traveler & had a private safari- but I felt so safe and in good hands. Patrick really knows his way round the national park and can spot animals from miles away. He took me up so close while respecting the animals and gave me the best experience. He organised packed breakfasts and lunches, set up a table in the park where it was safe and he even went to the lengths of taking me to all the elephant sightings after finding out it was my favourite animal. It was a dream come true. He always said if I’m happy, he is happy, and stopped for animals whenever I wanted to as well as checking it’s ok to keep driving. Couldn’t recommend Patrick enough! I saw the big 5 twice and so many animals.

A value for money experience.
My emperors with Axis Africa was very good. Our guide, Robert, was knowledgeable about the animals we saw and I learned a lot. He was friendly and had a good sense of humour, bringing levity to various moments. We saw all of the big five and the vehicles was positioned for optimum viewing. I highly recommend this tour and Robert as a guide.

Excellent guide and wonderful staffs
We were very happy with our guide from the Axis Africa Safaris, Dennis Wmangi.
Dennis is a very friendly guide, also knowledgeable, always happy to answer all our questions, while at the same time maintaining a very respectful and comfortable boundary with his guests.
He was always punctual—every morning, by the time we arrived the car, he was already there, and the vehicle was spotless and well organised: drinking water and even our slippers were already placed neatly by our seats.
What impressed us most was his experience and extraordinary ability to read wildlife. He could often anticipate where an animal was likely to move and position the vehicle in exactly the right place before anything happened. His eyesight was remarkable as well. On one occasion, while we were driving, he spotted a rhino on a hillside roughly 1–2 km away—something we would never have noticed ourselves. He immediately drove us there and alerted other guides so they could find it too.
His driving skills were equally impressive. Whether navigating the rough, uneven tracks inside the parks or busy highways in the countryside, he always drove efficiently while keeping us safe and comfortable.
We couldn’t have asked for a better guide for our first African safari. His professionalism, knowledge, attention to detail, and genuineness made the experience truly special.
We would happily recommend him to anyone planning a safari in Kenya!

Such a great safari
We had a great safari in Masai Mara and our guide Robert was excellent. Wild Mest camp was everything we needed for a shower and a good rest after long safari days. Robert was very knowledgeable about the animals and excellent at spotting shy animals. I’m so thankful for all the magnificent lions we were able to see. Thank you!

An Unforgettable 7-Day Kenyan Safari with Peter Kapino & Axis Safari
Our 7-day Kenya safari with Axis Safari was wonderful! We visited Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru, Lake Naivasha and Amboseli. The camps and food were excellent. Being vegetarian, I enjoyed spinach, chapathis, vegetable curry and lentils, similar to Indian food. Peter Kapino explained the animals and birds beautifully, making every drive interesting. He even returned my forgotten phone. Highly recommended!
