Attentive and efficient planner
We had an amazing experience with this safari company. Lucy, our tour operator, was honestly amazing from the beginning. She helped us with all our requirements and was so patient with all the changes we kept making to our plans. She was always quick to reply, very attentive, and made the whole booking process really easy.
Our safari guide, Hasan, was also great. He looked after us from the moment he picked us up until he dropped us off at the airport. He was patient with all our delays, always listened to our requests, and made sure we had the best experience possible. He explained everything clearly, answered all our questions, and did his best to show us everything we wanted to see.
A big thank you to both Lucy and Hasan for making our Kenya safari such a memorable trip. I would definitely recommend this company to anyone planning a safari in Kenya.

He was a wonderful person—adventurous and humorous.
I highly recommend Axis Safari to everyone; thanks to them, we experienced a top-notch safari. They have wonderful staff, the organization was excellent, and they offer plans to suit every budget—you can find everything you’re looking for in a safari here. The guide, Peter Kapino, is particularly experienced; he has a knack for locating wildlife and goes above and beyond to show you the "Big Five."

Incredibly talented, observant, and friendly.
We purchased the 3-day Masai Mara adventure tour, which included a two-night stay. Axis Safari answered all our questions throughout the process, and the entire team was friendly; we made our payment at their office and then traveled from Nairobi to Masai Mara—a five-hour journey. The group safari was incredibly fun. Thanks to Peter Kapino, we saw four of the "Big Five"—he told us we were very lucky. Thanks to Peter's skills, we were able to see many animals up close; we can't thank him enough. You should definitely choose Axis Safari and Peter Kapino for your Masai Mara trip—you certainly won't regret it! :) :) Best regards from Turkey.

Great Safari with a Friendly Guide
We had a great safari with Peter kapino. Everything was well organized, and our guide Peter kapino was friendly, patient, and good at spotting animals. We saw many amazing animals, including lions, elephants, cheetahs and more. The trip was smooth and good value for money. I would happily recommend them to anyone visiting Kenya.

Unforgettable budget safari!
Incredible tour from start to finish! Peter from the Axis team took so much time and effort to patiently explain various options and packages while we were planning. When we went to the office in Nairobi, the entire team was lovely and incredibly helpful. A huge highlight was celebrating my birthday during the trip—Peter and the team made sure the camp arranged a surprise celebration and a cake. It was completely unexpected and extremely sweet of them!
Our guide, Caxstone, was great. He is an expert driver who easily manoeuvred through some very tough and challenging roads, and he had an answer for every single question we threw at him. He made some brilliant executive decisions, like driving us straight to the Masai Mara for a game drive on Day 1 instead of waiting for the typical evening drive after check-in. Because of which we maximized our first day, got extra hours in the park, and incredibly saw all of the Big Five on our very first day! He consistently made great decisions and put a lot of effort into making sure we had incredible wildlife sightings throughout the whole trip.
They included some decent options for accommodation and lunch stops. Some of our camps were beautifully located with better amenities than competing tours. We never felt like we missed out on anything, despite being on a budget. Highly recommend!

An unforgettable Kenya safari with Axis Africa Safaris!
An unforgettable Kenya safari with Axis Africa Safaris!
From the first conversation, Winnie was patient, responsive and helped us plan the trip exactly around what we wanted. Everything was seamless from start to finish.
But the real star of our trip was our guide, Mohammed. If you book with Axis, ask for him. His knowledge of wildlife and birds is exceptional, but his real superpower is his instinct, he somehow knew where to go, when to wait and how to position us. Thanks to him, we saw incredible wildlife and witnessed the Great Migration, something we will never forget.
Mohammed was patient, smart, respectful, gave us our space and quietly made sure every stay and activity was perfectly arranged. He is not just a driver or guide; he is the kind of person who can completely change your safari experience.
Axis Africa was professional, reliable and excellent value. Winnie made the planning easy, and Mohammed made the safari unforgettable. 10/10 — highly recommended!

Top-notch safari
We had an excellent safari, perfectly organized from start to finish. Our driver and our French-speaking guide, Joseph, were very professional, always available, and able to answer all our questions. They suggested a few optional excursions, such as a night safari or a visit to a Maasai village, without ever being pushy, which we greatly appreciated. We chose one, and the experience was truly wonderful. The hotels selected were also of very high quality and perfectly suited to our needs. A top-notch organization that we highly recommend!

Great experience
We chose Axis Safari for a 4-day, 3-night safari, and we couldn’t have made a better choice! There were three of us, and we visited the Masai Mara, Lake Naivasha (including the wonderful boat tour and the unforgettable walking safari on Crescent Island), and on the last day, Lake Nakuru National Park.
The Masai Mara is simply breathtaking—an absolute must-see that offers unforgettable emotions and incredible landscapes. We were also amazed by Lake Naivasha: the boat ride among hippos and countless birds, followed by the walking safari on the island surrounded by wildlife, was truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
Throughout the safari, we were lucky enough to see an incredible variety of animals, including lions, elephants, buffaloes, giraffes, zebras, cheetahs, hyenas, hippos, rhinos, crocodiles, wildebeests, gazelles, and many other beautiful species. Every game drive was exciting and full of surprises.
During the tour, we stayed at Enkorok Mara Camp and Hillcourt Resort. Both accommodations were fantastic: comfortable rooms, great food, everything you need for a relaxing stay after long safari days, and incredibly kind and welcoming staff.
A very special thank you goes to our guide, Kalifa, who made this experience even more memorable. He was professional, extremely knowledgeable, always available, and attentive to every detail. Thanks to his experience and dedication, we were able to spot so many amazing animals and enjoy the safari to the fullest.
We highly recommend Axis Safari to anyone looking for an authentic and unforgettable experience in Kenya. It has truly been one of the best trips of our lives!
