5/5

We had an excellent holiday. It was worth every penny. We saw so many animals and Dickson, our tour guide, was very informative and helpful to ensure we had the best experience. Very reliable company that offers amazing service. Comfortable safari jeep with tasty meals and water provided. It was everything we had hoped the safari would be and more. We felt so safe the entire trip and this experience was a great way to end 2025. Thank you to Axis Africa Safaris and our amazing tour guide Dickson for a wonderful holiday.

Unforgettable Safari experience
5/5

Our group of seven girls had the absolute pleasure of exploring the Masai Mara with Dickson as our guide, and we couldn’t have asked for anyone better. From the moment we met him, he was kind, generous, patient, and incredibly knowledgeable about the wildlife, the land, and the culture.
Dickson’s expertise and his trusty Jeep took us on an unforgettable journey through the park, giving us a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to see the animals up close in their natural habitat. Whether it was tracking lions at sunrise or spotting elephants on the horizon, he made every moment feel magical and exciting, all while keeping us safe and comfortable.
Our accommodation was also a highlight of the trip. It was clean, safe, and incredibly welcoming, with staff who went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed. Their warmth and hospitality made us feel right at home after long, adventure-filled days in the reserve.
What truly stood out was how attentive and thoughtful Dickson was throughout the entire journey. He made sure we were always well taken care of, answered all our questions with enthusiasm, and created an atmosphere that was both fun and deeply memorable.
If you’re considering a safari in Kenya, we wholeheartedly recommend requesting Dickson. He turned our adventure into an experience we’ll treasure forever.

5/5

This trip was a trip of a life time everyone was extremely friendly and helpful. We were a group of seven girls. Dickson was our tour guide for the three days he was the best tour guide. He was very reliable and also had a very comfortable and reliable jeep. He provided bottles of water for us every morning. He played great music while on the long journey from Nairobi to our camp in Masi Mara. Our accommodation in Masi Mara was excellent very comfortable bed and clean room the food was delicious and the staff were extremely friendly and welcoming. This trip was definitely worth every penny and I would definitely recommend to a friend.

Our guide DICKSON was incredible! Friendly and full of positive energy for the perfect safari trip!
5/5

A trip to remember forever! We were a group of 7 girls on our first safari trip in the Masai Mara. Couldn’t have asked for a better guide, Dickson was incredible, friendly and we felt very safe in his hands. Dickson shared all his knowledge with us, we learned so much about the animals and the culture. The safari jeep was comfortable and spacious for all of us. This trip exceeded my expectations, Dickson ensured we encountered lots of wildlife. We saw lions and their cubs, buffalos, elephants, leopards and many more. We chose the budget option for accommodation and it was perfect for us. If you are thinking of booking a trip with this company, do it!

He is great.
5/5

During our holiday in Kenya, we chose Axis for a four-day safari. From start to finish, the entire team was incredibly supportive — thank you to Abdullah for assisting us throughout the planning process, Monica from the sales team, and our amazing guide Dennise who took care of us every day, ensuring we traveled safely and efficiently. Dennise always provided us with informative and engaging guidance. Even though it was nearly the end of the season, we were lucky enough to see the famous Big Five. We enjoyed delicious meals and stayed in comfortable accommodations. I highly recommend this experience. Thank you for everything!

Kenya Done Right, Seamless, Private, and Truly Magical
5/5

I’ve grown up watching National Geographic, Animal Planet, and Discovery, and visiting Africa had always been my biggest dream and right at the top of my bucket list. That dream couldn’t have been executed any better than as a family, with my 10-month-old, my wife, and my in-laws, by Axis Africa.

I went into this trip with no real plan, just a dream. Travelling with a 10-month-old is no joke. From the very first enquiry on WhatsApp to the prompt late-night responses by Tabitha, every concern I had was patiently addressed. A highly customised itinerary was built piece by piece, always keeping the comfort and safety of my child as the top priority.

Not only was Axis Africa incredibly prompt and meticulous in crafting our trip just one week before travel, they also turned out to be the best value for money compared to three other operators we explored, for what I would truly call an all-inclusive, exclusive, private, and safe experience. The premium stays (Curio Hilton, Sand River by Elewana, Serena Sweetwaters, Fairmont Kenya Safari Club) were exceptional, and I haven’t even gotten to the best part yet.

Our guide, Mr. Kevin Apidi.

We have travelled to quite a few places around the world, both self-driven and guided, and all I can say is this, Kenya has to be experienced via a tour operator, and this was hands down the best guided experience we’ve ever had.

Kevin was with us from day one until the very end. His large safari jeep was equipped with a car seat for my baby, and words cannot explain just how perfect he was in every way, extremely professional, exceptionally well-spoken, highly knowledgeable and informative, and most importantly, genuinely kind, accommodating, and sensitive to every situation. By the end of our nine-day trip, he felt like part of our family.

We visited Kenya during the off-season in late November, and honestly, it couldn’t have been better. It felt more exclusive and private. Cut to the chase, Kevin ensured we saw all of the Big Five up close, and even what I would call the Big Nine. My dream unfolded better than I ever imagined. No GPS, no tracking, just 16 years of experience, instinct, and hard work behind the incredible person he is. The entire experience felt nothing short of magical.

We are deeply grateful to Axis Africa for assigning Kevin to us, and to Tabitha for overseeing the entire trip, from our very first conversation to seamless coordination with all the hotels, making the journey completely hassle-free for us, especially while travelling with elders and a baby.

During the trip, we celebrated my wife’s birthday and my son’s 10-monthversary. We couldn’t have chosen a better destination or a better tour operator.

Wishing Axis Africa, Tabitha, and Kevin Apidi continued success and growth.
God bless abundantly.

11/10.
