WOW WOW WOW INCREDIBLE
Our safari to the Maasi Mara was absolutely incredible!! Richard (our incredible guide) was so fantastic and did everything he could to make sure we had a fabulous time and saw all the animals. We got to see an incredible sunset the first night in the park and so many animals including cheetah, leopard, lions, elephants and so much more. Would recommend having two full day game drives as it ensures you see lots of animas and explore different areas of the park. Richard was an absolute legend and knew all the other guides and rangers so he had al the insider tips!

An excellent well organised operation.
Our tour with Richard (Nkoile - hope we spelt it right) was fantastic! He was extremely knowledgeable with all of the different species and an excellent spotter. He has been very warm and welcoming making sure we always had what we needed. He also brought humour with him and made sure we got the best views.
We would have stayed with him the whole time if we could! He enabled us to have the best time and make incredible memories, thank you.

Beautiful experience with Axis
Axis was amazing from the start - Maurine answered all my questions (and there was a lot of them) and made me feel really safe about choosing Axis. The journey itself was great - the car is comfortable, clean, spacious, with electricity sockets. The driver was on time and we managed to see all the big 5 and the migration. I was really surprised in a good way about how many things we managed to see in and half day of game drives (3 days masai mara experience).
Special thanks and appreciation to our driver Roger. He was friendly, helpful, knowledgeable, always ready to respond to all our questions. Whenever there was an animal sighting, he rushed and somehow always managed to find the best for us to see the animals. He told me he loves his job and it really shows - the safari would have been a very different experience, was it not for him. Thank you, again.

Very helpful, friendly and professional.
We had a lovely time from the moment we were picked up at the hotel. The safari itself was amazing and we saw all the animals we wished for. We loved the «wild nest camp resort».
An unforgettable and magical safari!
We just finished our safari experience and we couldn't be more happier with the result.
First of all, the Axis team—and Peter in particular—did a fantastic job putting together the itinerary, answering all our questions, and handling any issues that arose—such as adding an extra day in the Mara or booking train tickets to Mombasa in advance.
Our guide, Yasin, made this experience far better than we had ever imagined; he teach us all about a wide variety of animals and looked after us like family. We were lucky enough to see the "Big Five" and witnessed one of the most magical moments imaginable—an elephant being born right before our eyes. All of this was enhanced by Yasin’s extensive knowledge and kindness, as he always prioritized our well-being and the well-being of the animals.
Asante sana!

An unmatched first safari experience in Africa
We have just returned from our first safari in Africa, and choosing Axis and their team was a fantastic decision. We had no prior experience organizing this type of trip, and Peter’s assistance and advice were invaluable in creating an itinerary perfectly tailored to our interests. Peter was attentive and proactive throughout the process; he listened to our needs and helped us create a tailor-made itinerary that went beyond standard options—such as adding an extra day in the Maasai Mara and a visit to Hell's Gate in Naivasha. He even arranged to purchase our train tickets before we arrived in Kenya—a huge relief, as we wouldn't have been able to buy them ourselves without M-Pesa. Thanks to him, we secured travel on our preferred dates without the worry of tickets selling out!
The moment to begin our adventure arrived, and we were assigned a guide and fellow travelers—people who were key to making the adventure truly complete. There were two other couples with whom it was a pleasure to share this fantastic experience, and then there was Yasin, our guide, who became a real teacher and friend throughout the week-long safari.
Yasin adapted the route each day with our well-being and comfort in mind; we managed to see a vast number of animals and truly spectacular sights. His mastery of the terrain and his experience in the wild were evident at every moment. We all hoped to see the "Big Five" (which we did!), but we never expected to witness the birth of an elephant just a few meters away. He always maintained an ethical approach and shared his insights with us throughout the journey.
We wrapped up our eight-day safari feeling a bit tired, yet immensely grateful and happy about the experiences we shared each day. We will miss seeing so many animals daily and continuing to discover the local wildlife.
Asante sana!

Appreciation : 9-Day Safari with Axis Africa Safaris
Axis Africa Safaris is the premier operator in Nairobi, offering competitive pricing and exceptional services.
Recently, I and a friend booked a nine-day package with Axis Africa Safaris. Our initial inquiries were promptly addressed with comprehensive information. Tabitha customised our itinerary to meet our specific requirements. The accommodation and food provided during the trip were good. Our guide, Muhammad, was exceptionally friendly and helpful. He possessed extensive knowledge of the safaris we undertook in Masai Mara, Naivasha, Amboseli and Tsavo East. I would definitely recommend Axis Africa Safari to my friends and family.

Excellent service and expertise
Had an incredible 4D3N safari in the Maasai Mara where we saw the Big Five two days as well as some predators feeding. The guides were incredible at finding and getting us close to the animals and also possessed great knowledge about the animals themselves. Thanks to our guides Nicole and Kulet for making this an unforgettable experience.

Best days of my life
Our safari with Axis Africa was honestly such an incredible experience! I had never been on safari before, so I wasn’t really sure what to expect, but it turned out to be one of the highlights of my life.
We were lucky enough to visit both Amboseli and Taita Hills, and every game drive felt like a little adventure. Sadam was an amazing guide and definitely one of the reasons we had such a great time. His ability to spot animals was unbelievable, sometimes he would point something out and we would be staring in the same direction for ages before finally seeing it! We got to see lions, cheetahs and leopards, among so many other animals, and some of those moments were genuinely unforgettable.
Bo was also great and always so friendly and helpful. We really enjoyed having both of them with us, and they made the whole experience feel easy and relaxed.
I ended the trip with so many amazing memories and hundreds of photos, and I’m already missing the game drives! A huge thank you to Sadam, Bo and everyone at Axis Africa for making our first Kenyan safari such a fantastic experience. I would absolutely recommend them!
