Absolutely with it
5/5

My wife and I decided to join the 3 nights 4 days Masai Mara + Lake Nakuru Safari and it did not disappoint. It was low season so it was relatively cheaper and everything was better than expected. The lodging, the food, the guide was all great. We got to see so many animals. It was truly a dream come true. Would recommend it to anyone looking to do a safari on a budget

Geeman was very knowledgeable and knew exactly where the animals are and when to see them
4/5

The tour guide was great and very well organised. Geeman was very good and knew a lot about the animals and the park. The accomodation requires a better description online for new customers trying to book. Pictures of the tents would be better so they get an idea of what to expect.

Epic
5/5

The safari experience was truly epic and breathtaking. I'm a solo traveller from London and with there being so many tour operators, I did extensive research on TripAdvisor and still was unsure but from the collection at my hotel all the way to the drop off at the end the interaction with the staff and communication has been amazing. Everything was clear, concise and friendly. Francis my driver who collected me from my hotel gave me a good understanding of Kenya, then James, our tour guide went above and beyond to truly make the experience unforgettable. For this trip I opted to stay on the camp where the team was great, i did not realise it ran off a generator so if you book this option bring a tourch and powerpack. I would recommend this operator for the safari I did in Kenya.

Fantastic safari
5/5

I had a fantastic three-day safari trip in Masai Mara with James. The experience was incredible, with stunning opportunities to see Africa's wildlife, including the Big Five as well as numerous other animals. The trip was well organized, and our accommodations at Mara Sopa Lodge were superb. I will definitely return to this amazing destination!

Highly recommend - 5 star experience
5/5

If I could give 100 stars, I absolutely would!

As a female solo traveler, planning a safari can feel a bit daunting—but thanks to Lucy from Axis African Safaris, my 5-day, 4-night safari adventure was seamless from the very beginning. Lucy was incredibly helpful and patient, answering all my 1000+ questions with promptness, warmth, and professionalism. Her support and planning made me feel completely at ease before I even set foot on the safari.

Now, let’s talk about Yasin, my guide for the entire excursion. Words truly fall short in capturing how phenomenal he was. From the moment the trip began, Yasin ensured I didn’t have to worry about a single thing—bathroom breaks, meals, water, and rest stops were all perfectly timed and handled without a hitch. His attention to detail and care made me feel safe and taken care of at every point.

But Yasin is so much more than a tour guide. His deep knowledge of wildlife, birds, plants, and even the terrain and landmarks... Read more made the experience both educational and magical. Because of his expertise and keen eye, we were able to witness and capture some truly once-in-a-lifetime animal encounters. I learned so much while also simply enjoying the incredible sights and sounds of nature.

Friendly, professional, and impressively knowledgeable—Yasin made this trip unforgettable. If you’re considering a safari, ask for Yasin. And Lucy. Trust me, they’re the dream team.

This wasn’t just a trip—it was a beautifully curated, deeply enriching, soul-touching experience. I’ll be recommending Axis to every solo traveler I know!

Very enjoyable safari tour - questionable accommodation
3/5

We had a very nice safari in a big 4x4 Land Cruiser and saw lots of the animals. Our guide Gerald (aka Geeman) was very good at spotting and pointing out animals and getting us all over the place and up close to several of the animals.

The only downside was the accommodation, which was an unpleasant surprise. Very basic tents which I wasn’t expecting, and the food was quite wearisome. Thankfully there was alcohol.

The trip to the Masai Tribe was fun, but expect to buy several take aways.

Most cooperative operator, flexible and Seamless operation.
5/5

First point is most reasonable prices but still more value for money. Not a single error in program. We found it most reliable. Mr. Tabitha planned it well and guides Kikitu and Richie implemented it by perfect timing in movements. Both guides have good knowledge of animals life style and nature. We learned a lot.
We highly recommend this operator.
Regarding hotels :- In masaimara as per budget it was ok. For veg food they tried their best. In Nakuru hotel was too good and meals also good. In Naivasha hotel was so so. Not very comfortable and meals too were basic. Hot water shower was not working.
Overall experience is very good.
