Excellent- our daughter and her friends were on a 5 day Kenya safari. Loved every bit of it -
Far exceeded our expectations- 5 day safari package. Guide picked the 3 girls up from the airport took them to the hotel and stated safari next day. Safari was better than expected, guide was fantastic. We communicated with Lennox prior to the trip via email and WhatsApp, he was very responsive.

Extremely reliable and enjoyable safari!
From the moment I contacted Axis Africa Expedition & Safaris, they were extremely accommodating and found a safari/tour that was perfect for me. I was very wary at first about signing up with a company I did not know, but I can now say with 100% confidence that Axis Africa Expedition & Safaris is the only way you should plan your trip to Kenya! Our guide Evans was incredible and knowledgeable. He enhanced my whole experience and taught me so much. He was very considerate and sensitive to everyone's needs. I would highly recommend requesting him as your guide! I was very pleased with the whole experience, and Lennox was there answering all my emails along the way with any concerns i had.

Good tour of central and southern Kenya. Splurge for nicer lodges and you will not be disappointed!
I did a 7 day joining tour with Axis Africa and Lennox was great with communicating from the beginning to end. I was able to tailor my safari with nicer lodges and was so glad I did. The Mara Sopa Lodge was amazing with attentive staff! Lake Nakuru Lodge was right inside the national park and was in a beautiful setting, also with great staff. Lake Naivasha Sopa was phenomenal with hippos and giraffes grazing on your back lawn at night! This place is the closest you'll get to Giraffe Manor without spending thousands! In Amboseli, I stayed at Kibo Safari Camp, which is another luxury tented camp and I cannot say praise it enough--the setting, the food, the staff, and the rooms! Fantastic!
John was our driver/guide and incredibly nice, but quiet. We saw the Big 5 and John was patient with our birdwatching. My one suggestion would be a little more communication from John about what each day will hold. Nowhere in my itinerary did it mention Hells Gate National Park/hike into the gorge, so the day we did this I was unprepared. Fortunately, luggage was in the back of the van and I was able to change into proper footwear and the hike was enjoyable and worth it (if you have a big camera, leave it behind on the hike). On the plus side, I am a teacher and John knew this and arranged a visit to a village school in the Masai region and while short, it was a highlight. The Lake Naivasha boat trip was not included with everyone's safari, but was in mine, and it was great. Add it, as it offers a different perspective of the hippos, birdlife, and local fishing community.
If I go back to Kenya, I would definitely recommend Axis Africa. If I could do it over, I would upgrade to a land cruiser or something similar if offered. Not sure if Axis Africa offers that option, but it definitely would've been worth it as the vans are tight when full and we had 7 people 3/4 of the time, not counting the driver.

Everything was beyond our expectations.
Richard and Albert were informative and communicative. They provided an experience that was far beyond our expectations. Working and coordinating with Lennox was a breeze. Axis took the stress of travel out of our hands.

Great safari at a great price
We had a great experience with this company. We booked on the night before and they managed to pick us up on the way and not in Nairobi so they were super accommodating.
Safari was great and our guide Robert was very knowledgable. The rooms were nice with a double bed and mosquito net which an en-suite attached which was way more that I expected for the cheap prices.
The food was pretty basic and served in a mini dinner hall which wasn’t luxurious but for the price we paid was more than reasonable!
Would recommend for anyone trying to do a cheapish safari!
