Great Trip to Maasai Mara, Amboseli, Tsavo East and Tsavo West
We had two great Safaris with Raymond and Jack as our drivers. We were picked up from our hotel and after that point everything was taken care of for us. The accommodations that Axis booked us into were very nice and the staff at each hotel/lodge were very attentive and provided very good service.
We saw the Maasai Mara, Lake Nakuru, and Hell’s Gate with Jack. With Raymond we saw Maasai Mara, Amboseli, Tsavo West, and Tsavo East.
We throughly enjoyed having both Jack and Raymond as our drivers. Both were passionate and excited when we saw hard to find animals like the leopard or lion cubs. They were knowledgeable and had answers for all the questions we had about the animals. After 5 or 6 days with each driver, it feels like we made a new friend in each of them!
Each park has something different to offer and we were happy that Axis was able to provide a good itinerary that allowed us to see each one! I would definitely book with Axis Africa and Jack/Raymond again.

Big 5 with Collin
We saw the "Big 5" thanks to our guide, Collin. It was an unforgettable adventure that exceeded all expectations. The 6-day tour began at Lake Naivasha and Crescent Island—featuring a boat ride and a walking tour—where we saw hippos, eagles, zebras, giraffes, gazelles, and waterbuck. We then transferred by jeep to the Masai Mara. During the two-day safari there, we managed to see lions hunting (a truly thrilling and unique experience), as well as leopards, elephants, buffalo, cheetahs, giraffes, wildebeest, zebras, monkeys, warthogs, vultures, jackals, and hyenas—all the animals one imagines seeing when visiting this country. To complete the "Big 5," our guide Collin took us to Nakuru, where we saw the black rhino. Our children, aged 10 and 6, were thrilled with the time spent on this tour; thanks to our guide's warmth and kindness, they grew very fond of him, calling him "Uncle Collin"—their uncle from Kenya. We sincerely thank Collin for the time and expertise he dedicated to us, and Lucy from Axis Africa Safari, who impeccably selected every place we stayed and made this trip unforgettable—an experience that will forever remain in our hearts and memories. A heartfelt thank you to you all!
Masai Mara-Nakuru-Naivasha 6 day Masai Mara-Nakuru-Naivasha safari with Axis Safari was exceptional
Masai Mara is an amazing wildlife viewing experience. We observed so many animals with almost non stop encounters. The guides were so enthusiastic we were in the park from just after sunrise to sunset each day.
We added a second full Masai Mara day which allowed us to fully explore the park. We saw a wildebeest river crossing on both days.
We really enjoyed the Lake Nakuru park, the Lake Naivasha boat ride and Hells gate biking, rock climbing, and canyon hike.
Guides Jack and Raymond were excellent.
They were very enthusiastic, friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. They were great at navigating the Land Cruises quickly to the optimal animal viewing sites!
The trip in general was well planned and executed as described in our itinerary. This was a group safari and the other participants were very nice and interesting.
This was a budget safari and the accommodation and food were very good.

Once in a lifetime experience
We had an incredible safari experience with Amos as our guide, and couldn’t have asked for better. He drove safely and confidently throughout, which put us completely at ease. Amos was punctual every single day, always ready and waiting when he said he would be. He went out of his way to make sure we were comfortable the whole trip, and his sharp eye for spotting wildlife meant we got to see so many amazing animals up close. Highly recommend Amos to anyone looking for a safari guide who’s professional, reliable, and genuinely passionate about what he does!”

Incredible Experience
We had an incredible safari experience with Amos as our guide. I have knee problems that make it hard for me to move quickly, and Amos was so patient and accommodating the entire trip — he never rushed me and always made sure I was comfortable getting in and out of the vehicle and moving around at each stop. He drove safely and confidently throughout, which put us completely at ease, and was punctual every single day. Despite my slower pace, he still made sure we saw so many amazing animals up close. Highly recommend Amos to anyone looking for a safari guide who’s professional, and genuinely goes out of his way to accommodate his guests’ needs!
Friendly, professional, experienced, and reliable - tour operator that made every step of our safari
We had a fantastic 7-day safari covering Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru, Lake Naivasha, and Amboseli. Axis Africa Expeditions & Safaris took care of all the accommodation and meals included in our package, and everything was well organized and met our expectations.
The highlight of our trip was our guide, Amos. He was incredibly friendly, patient, and professional throughout the safari. Since we were traveling with our parents, he was especially understanding, accommodating, and made sure everyone was comfortable. His extensive knowledge of the wildlife, birdlife, and the parks made every game drive both exciting and educational. He happily answered all our questions and shared fascinating insights that greatly enhanced our experience.
Overall, the safari exceeded our expectations, and we had an unforgettable time. We highly recommend Axis Africa Expeditions & Safaris, and a special thanks to Amos for making our trip so memorable.

Professional, reliable, and dedicated to creating an unforgettable safari experience.
Our safari was an absolutely incredible experience and definitely something everyone should do at least once in their lifetime.
Our guide, Wycliffe, was fantastic! Thanks to his experience and dedication, we were able to see so many animals up close. He was always willing to go the extra mile to find the best spots, get us closer to the wildlife, and patiently answer all of our questions. His passion and knowledge really made the whole experience even more special.
The accommodations throughout the safari were also excellent, and everything was very well organized.
We would absolutely recommend Axis Africa Safaris to anyone looking for an unforgettable safari experience in Kenya. It was a truly amazing journey and one that will stay in our hearts forever!
Wonderful Safari Experience!
We had an amazing time on our 5 day safari to Amboseli, Tsavo east and Tsavo west. Our guide Raymond was very knowledgeable about all the animals and good at getting us into the best positions for viewing and photography. He was also patient and gave us lots of time to enjoy watching the animals before moving on. We saw so many elephants in all of the parks and viewed many different animals that we hadn’t seen in other parks. All our accommodations were great and the food was good as well. When we had watering holes outside our hotel it was amazing to watch the animals as we ate our meals. Overall we would highly recommend this company and guide, we had a wonderful experience!

Magnificent experience
We went on a 7-day tour, visiting some truly magnificent places! From the Masai Mara to Lake Nakuru, continuing to Naivasha, and finishing at Amboseli Park—we were accompanied on this wonderful experience by Kevin, who was incredibly helpful and friendly. If you ever choose Axis Africa Safari, I highly recommend asking for him. Personally, the place I enjoyed the most was the Masai Mara, where the highest concentration of animals is found.

Perfet planners and executors of Safaris
Our safari trip with Axis Africa Expedition & Safaris was excellent and beyond our expectations.
We did 7 days of Safari trip with our guide Amos through Masai Mara, Naivasha National Park, Nakuru National Park, Hell's Gate National Park and Amboseli National Park.
Amos was extremely knowledgeable of the landscape and wildlife. He answered all our questions and shared insightful information about animals and birds we spotted.
He drove us around all 7 days extremely professionally, ensuring that our aged parents were comfortable at all times and stopped for adequate breaks.
Overall, we'd highly recommend Amos as guide and Axis Africa Expedition & Safaris as tour operators.
