Exceeded all expectations!
My girlfriend and I booked a 3-day safari in Masai Mara and we are blown away!
Axis Africa were extremely serviceminded and so professional from the first contact to the end of our trip. Lucy in the office were quick and precise, Evan picked us up on time at our hotel and our guide Richard were the best guide we have ever had! He seemed to go the ekstra mile all the time for our sake and he made sure, that we saw all the animal we wanted. We even got to see a live hunt for a Buffalo by a family of 15 lions, where he placed us perfectly both before and under the action. He seemed to have a sixth sense about what was going to happen.
We chose the low budget option, so we didn't expect much of the Lodge, but we were very surprised by the comfort of the tent, which had a big bed, electricity and private toilet and bath.
Thank you Axis Africa and especially you, Richard for an unforgettable experience! These days will be imprinted in us for ever.
The biggest recommendation from Anna and Jeppe

Amazing guide & experience
Had the best time, especially with our Maasai guide Nkoile (Richard).
He was very kind and made sure we were at the best spots to see rare animals.
We have seen a group of Lions attacking a Buffalo, a Leopard, multiple Cheetas, Lions, Elephants, Giraffes, Birds and even a Black Rhino.

Absolute best in the business - Kudos to Cynthia and Peter Kapino
An amazingly outstanding experience with Axis Africa safaris. I planned this trip with my family on the occasion of my 40th birthday. For planning this , I had connected with Cynthia who is the MD of the company and inspite of holding a high position she was completely hands on and so humble , while accommodating our requests and requirements. She also made a few suggestions from her end to make the trip comfortable since we were travelling with our 6 yr old child. The planning, though exhaustive was well chalked out. Through months after booking Cynthia was extremely forthcoming and always available to answer the questions that we had. We planned Masai mara , Naivasha and Amboseli with them.
Then came the big day! The first day of our trip starting in Nairobi- pick up and drop off to hotel was very smooth. During our first day, there was some confusion from the hotel’s side, and Cynthia herself was there at the hotel to solve it in a jiffy and ensured that everything went well.
For our safari, we were allocated one of the best guides that they have - Peter Kapino aka “Kapino”. He is highly experienced in this industry with over 15 years of service .. What an excellent time we had with him!! He was always there on time to pick us up and did every little thing to make us feel comfortable. He also ensured that our little one was comfortable and had an awesome trip.He has an amazing sense of tracking animals and he was so involved with getting us the best possible sightings. Knowing that I am also a photographer he would position the vehicle in the perfect spot every single time with pin point accuracy.. it was just amazing so his tracking and positioning skills helped me get some really awesome shots! We also completed the Big 5, thanks to his excellent skill sets as a tracker and guide!
Axis Africa also arranged an absolutely lovely birthday celebrations for me at the lodge which made the trip even more memorable. This is by far the best birthday celebration my family and I could ask for! This was my first trip to Kenya through Axis Africa but definitely not the last one. I strongly recommend them for planning your dream safaris, just plan and let them do the rest!!

Best Safari Experience with Collin
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
We had an amazing safari experience with Axis Africa Expedition & Safaris. Everything was well organized from start to finish, making our journey completely worry-free.
The hotels selected were comfortable and enjoyable, and the highlight of the trip was that we successfully saw the Big Five. Our guide, Collin, was reliable, professional, and highly experienced. His knowledge of wildlife and the parks helped us make the most of every game drive. He also took excellent photos for us, helping capture many unforgettable moments.
The trip was absolutely worth the money, offering great value and an unforgettable experience. Thank you, Axis Africa Expedition & Safaris, for a wonderful adventure. We highly recommend this company, especially guide Collin, to anyone planning a safari in Kenya.

Accommodating and knowledgeable.
Our drivers seemed very experienced and were excellent guides. I was apart of a large group so we were split into 3 different cars. I personally only rode with Solomon and Jacques but I have heard such good things about Caleb our third guide. They were great at finding incredible sights and getting a good view of them. I loved how friendly they were and I will remember this safari for the rest of my life!
Interactive and really good at showing you the beauty of Kenya
Our tour guide, Solomon, was absolutely amazing. Not only did he do a great job at showing us the scenery and animals, but I learned a lot about animals, their habits, migration times, and so much more. He also did a great job of allowing us to get the pictures we wanted when we saw something we wanted to take a picture of.
The operator was intelligent, thoughtful, and very friendly.
The tour was worth every penny (or shilling). The operator was an expert in knowing and explaining information about the animals, very hospitable, and thoughtful about warning when we passed bumpy roads. I saw so many amazing animals and was very impressed by the quality of the safari.

The most unbelievable and fantastic safari, and the best operator!
The safari was more than I ever could dreamed of. Our guide, Richard, made our days absolutely amazing and so safe. We saw all the animals - lions, elephants, giraffes, cheetah, leopard, hippos and I could go on. The nature was absolutely amazing and Richard was always ready to tell us everything about the park, the animals and were also ready to answer all of our many questions. We feel very thankful and grateful for this experience.
