Reviews
Peter Kapino is the best! Very patient, knowledgeable, and kind!
We had the BEST experience on safari thanks to our guide and driver, Peter Kapino. He was with us the entire time, and honestly, he made the whole trip unforgettable.
Peter is incredibly kind, patient, and knowledgeable. He took his time to make sure we saw as much as possible and never rushed us especially when we wanted to stop for photos (which was often 😅). He knows so much about the animals, the land, and the culture, and you can tell he truly loves what he does.
What I appreciated most is how comfortable he made us feel. From day one, it didn’t feel like we were just client, it felt like we were traveling with a friend, even family. He’s very welcoming, easy to talk to, and just has such a good energy.
If you’re planning a safari, I highly recommend Axis! Shoutout to Tabatha that made it easy to book! Very responsive and answered all questions! Safari tour was very organized and I am very happy for choosing Axis and that Peter Kapino was assigned as our tour guide!

Amazing and mind-blowing!
The company did an excellent job and our safari guide, Kevin, was incredibly knowledgeable. We saw everything we were hoping for and more! The roads can be a little treacherous in the rainy season - so we were so glad for our expert guide who handled everything so well. Even though we went in mid-March, it never rained while we were out doing game drives. We loved the accommodations too - a lovely glamping tent and then a luxurious hotel. I highly recommend the 4 day tour so you can see Lake Nukuru.

Incredible experience ❤️🦁🐘
Just finished the best 4 day safari with Axis Safaris! I have previously done one safari before in Sri Lanka and saw hardly anything, so my expectations were low to be honest. I was blown away by how many animals we saw - 4 out of the big 5! We saw lions sleeping, mating and eating from a buffalo carcass. (All different lions at separate occasions!) We saw loads of elephants, 3 cheetahs, lots of warthogs, hippos, both white and black rhinos and loads more. I was pleasantly surprised by how good the accommodation was, more like glamping in the masai mara with proper beds and toilets. I loved the campfire at night. They also catered to our dietary requirements, including my vegan friend. Our driver/guide Peter Kapino was amazing, spotting animals I wouldn't have noticed and driving through some tricky spots seemingly with little effort. I spoke to someone at our campsite who they said they'd helped at least 5 cars who had got stuck in the mud in the masai mara and even had a vehicle break down. The fact we didn't get stuck once is testament to the driving skills of Peter and the great safari vehicle. Thank you Axis Safaris - I wouldn't hesitate to recommend to friends and use again next time I'm in Kenya.

On of the best experience in my life
Doing a safari and discovering Kenya with Pita was one of the most wonderful experiences of my life. The way he showed us Masai Mara, Nakuru, Naivasha, and Amboseli was incredible. We did a 7-day tour, and we think it was absolutely worth it—a perfect combination.
Pita took care of everything, and thanks to his experience, we were able to see many animals, enjoy amazing landscapes, and learn a lot from his knowledge about wildlife.
I 100% recommend this tour!

Amazing!
The tour I booked with Axis Africa Safaris was really nice. Our tour guide Richard really took an effort in making sure we had the best experience and took good care of us. He was very relaxt and listened to what everybody needed. The tour was well organized. Everything went smoothly. Also the camp we stayed in was nice, the tents (budget option) looked way better than expected and where comfortable. Thank you so much for the nice tour!

Unforgettable safari experience
We booked the safari package for masai mara, lake naivasha and nakuru from axis africa safari. Miss Tabitha gave us a wonderful budget package. Her response was very quick. We have enjoyed a lot with our tour guide captain khalifa. He is the man of safari. Khalifa has full knowledge of each and every animal and bird we saw during the safari. He is very responsible and feels like a family to us. Lunch and dinner provided was excellent as we are fully vegetarian. Hotels and camps they provided are neat and clean. People from axis african safari are very friendly. We highly recommend and thanks to both Tabhitha and khalifa for this wonderful trip.

Cynthia Khalifa and Derek were very professional responsive and did what they said they would do. A+
Cynthia was great to organize with. She was very responsive and gave us action information going into the weeks we were in Kenya. Our Tour driver. Khalifa was extremely skilled with over 20 years of experience. His driving was incredible as he never got stuck once and was able to get us very close to lion elephant and giraffes as well as cheetah going in for the kill. He had a great expertise along with his apprentice, Derek they made a great team. We were overall very happy with the food, with the transportation, a very great safari vehicle and great driver., and the tent was very big and comfortable, and we had a great time overall. Would definitely recommend.

We saw the big 5!
Our African safari experience exceeded all expectations and was absolutely worth every penny. From start to finish, everything was incredibly well organized, allowing us to fully immerse ourselves in the beauty of the wildlife and landscapes without any stress.
One of the highlights of our trip was our exceptional guide. Thanks to his deep knowledge, sharp instincts, and dedication, we were able to spot the Big Five in just three days — something truly remarkable. Beyond just finding the animals, he taught us so much about their behavior, the ecosystem, and the importance of conservation, which made the experience even more meaningful.
Every game drive felt unique and exciting, and we always felt safe, well taken care of, and engaged. This safari was not only an adventure but also an enriching learning experience that we will never forget.
We would highly recommend this tour to anyone looking for a once-in-a-lifetime safari experience.

Wonderful experiance
We had a wonderful time on safari. We managed to see so many animals despite the wet conditions. The tour definitely exceeded our expectations. A big shout-out to our tour guide, Steve, who took such good care of us and showed us so many amazing animals.
