5⭐️ Safari Experience
My wife and I took on a 6 day safari of the Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru and Amboseli parks with Axis Africa Safaris. Our experience was excellent!
Axis made the booking process easy for us, with regular communication through WhatsApp and great flexibility when it came to what safari lodges we’d like to stay in.
From arrival to dropping off back in Nairobi, we were well looked after.
Our tour guide, Raymond, was exceptional! we couldn’t recommend him higher! He had great knowledge of all the animals and was more than happy to answer all of our questions! Raymond had a fantastic eye for spotting animals and anticipating where they were going to be, getting is prime positions for sightings and photos. He also had a great sense of humour and really made us feel at ease.
Our highlight was the Masai Mara, where thanks to Raymond, we managed to see the famous river crossing, the big 5, the ugly 5 plus a cheetah all in one day.
We would highly recommend booking with axis Africa and make sure to ask for Raymond!

Outstanding Safari Experience with Axis & the Best Guide in Masai Mara: Colin Sempele!
Outstanding Safari Experience with Axis & the Best Guide in Masai Mara: Colin Sempele!
We recently booked a safari to the Masai Mara with Axis, and the entire experience exceeded our expectations. From the moment we completed our reservation, the company gave us absolute peace of mind. Their organization, communication, and punctuality were flawless throughout the entire trip.
However, the true highlight of our journey was our guide, Colin Sempele. Colin is simply on another level—far better than anything we could have imagined.
Here is why Colin made this trip unforgettable:
Expert Knowledge & Engagement: He constantly shared precise, fascinating information about the ecosystem, always leaving space for questions. His delivery is fun, natural, and engaging—a clear reflection of his local roots and years of experience.
Sharp Spotting & Animal Behavior: His eagle-eyed ability to spot wildlife is mind-blowing. He understands animal behavior and nature so deeply that he could predict their movements with incredible accuracy, placing us in the right spot before the action even happened.
Photographer-Friendly Positioning: He always made sure everyone in the vehicle had an excellent view, constantly maneuvering to get the best angles and the perfect light for our photos.
Deep Respect for Wildlife: What we respected most was his ethical approach. Colin always prioritized the animals' well-being, keeping a respectful distance and ensuring we never overwhelmed or stressed the wildlife.

Great
Very good organised trip. Jack was an excellent driver. Perfect driving, tried to show us as many animals as possible and shared his knowledge.
Magical and unforgettable
Went for a honeymoon safari with my husband so we picked the midrange-luxury option and it was fantastic.
Everything was well organised, our accommodations were really good, especially Lake Nakuru Lodge.
Our guide was Jack and he was extremely nice and really tried hard to find the animals, he also knew a lot about them, knew the parks really well so we went to good spots!
One day I was a bit sick, so we couldn’t join our group in the morning and Tabitha was very helpful. We got in contact with her and she organised a private tour a bit later when I was feeling better. We went with a Maasai named Patrick and he was also great. He knew all the lion spots.
Great and really unforgettable experience!

Very easy communication and great arrangements
Axis has been the easiest to communicate since the beginning - they adjust quickly to adapt our requests. The safari trip was great too. Our guide was very experienced in finding rare animals and getting us a good spot to see and take photos; also knowledgeable about the animals. Our whole family enjoys our time with him.

Always focus on giving the best experience - caring, have attention to details
We chose Axis Africa Safari to carefully plan a journey that combines both bush and beach. From the incredible wildlife of the Masai Mara to the beautiful landscapes of Lake Nakuru and Lake Naivasha, every day brought something unforgettable. We then slowed the pace with some relaxing time on the white sandy beaches of Diani, overlooking the Indian Ocean, before exploring the rich history and culture of Mombasa's Old Town.
Heartfelt thanks to Lucy at Axis Africa Safaris for helping us every step of the way. She took care of every minute details including driver pick-up, timing. Special thanks also to Marcus, our safari guide, who was simply awesome! His knowledge, enthusiasm, and passion for the wildlife made every game drive a memorable experience. Together, they made our journey seamless, stress-free, and truly unforgettable.
It has truly been the holiday of a lifetime, and we couldn't have asked for a better experience. Thank you Lucy and Marcus.

Exciting once in a life kinda
Our trip to Masai Mara with Axis Safari was an unforgettable experience. From the moment we were picked up until the end of the tour, everything was well organized and professionally managed.
The safari guide Ken ngamia was knowledgeable, friendly, and had an incredible eye for spotting wildlife. We were fortunate to see the Big Five and many other amazing animals in their natural habitat. The game drives were exciting, and ken shared fascinating information about the wildlife and the Maasai ecosystem. I would recommend axis safari and please ask for Ken if he is available.

Wonderful and friendly
Our driver guide Brian Ondigo was a friendly face from the get go. He made our group very comfortable and was able to judge our needs even before we asked. He made sure we were always comfortable in the car. He also explained about the wildlife and the park to us. He was also very accommodating to all our requests. We will definitely recommend him as a great driver guide for all tourists. Good luck Brian
