Massai MARA a 10 out of 10
One of the best trips Iv'e ever taken--Saw everything imaginable AND UP CLOSE--Photos look fake they are so beautiful
great guide and compfortable safari ride
I highly recommend the bush planes if you are flying into Nairobi as its a 6 hr rough ride to the marsh
We rode to Lake Nokuru and Massai MAra and then took a bush plane back MUCH easier and quicker not too mention FUN!! However luggel nededs to be light--our guide was kind enough to drive our luggage back to Nairobi to meet us for lunch before our flight

Kenya is the go-to place for wildlife enthusiasts
The national parks and reserves in Kenya are world class safari destinations. Masai Mara is magnificent, but personally I preferred Amboseli because of the various landscapes and huge amount of elephants. Also Lakes Naivasha and Nakuru are definitely worth checking out, especially for bird lovers. The weather in June was somewhat chilly, so you will want to bring a jacket with you. All the Kenyan people we met were extremely friendly, although the service culture and infrastructure are still developing. The scariest thing I encountered was the traffic culture, so think twice before renting a car. A safari company with a driver is a good option.

Review about Amboseli National Park by Anu Yltävä
I was amazed by the amount of wildlife and the scenic beauty of Amboseli. So many elephants, everywhere! Also the roads are in good condition.

Very kind drivers and tour guides!
We booked a 5 day trip in Zanzibar with this group and it was lots of fun! Hotels were nice and people were nicer. Was an amazing experience and want to go back. Hope to use Tanzania Choice Safaris another time in the future. They worked very well with our budget.

Ryan from Untamed Safaris was the ultimate in tour operators!
Just returned from the most amazing trip to South Africa organized by Ryan of Untamed Safaris. The itinerary was so well planned & ticked every experience we have always dreamt of doing in Sth Africa. Every minute detail Ryan planned went off without a hitch …. exciting destinations, beautiful accommodation, great internal flights, tours, guides, transport & the list goes on, absolutely faultless! The beauty of Sth Africa, the warmth of the African people & the majestic animals in their natural habitat (Especially the BIG 5) will remain with us always as being our most exciting holiday ever. THANKYOU again Untamed Safaris would not have been possible without you. We cannot recommend you more highly.
They provided the best guide king Julius
If the review was about our guide only I'd give 10 stars.
Julius was absolutely superb , kind, funny, knowledgeable, and got us so respectfully close to get us those picture perfect moments we dreamt of . Julius was considerate with each different member of the group and catered for every bodies needs constantly with a smile and a sense of humour.
Axis themselves were well priced , their accommodation choices were superb we stayed at the Sopa lodges and they are nothing short of perfect ( we even got engaged in one )
My only negative is that their communication styles need to be improved , and their logistics of where guests are staying need to be considered more .
However Julius made our trip into a dream come true .
Thank you Julius .

an unforgettable 9-day safari trip with excellent service and unforgettable suprises
Our 9-day, 8-night safari trip was a very enjoyable and unforgettable journey. When booking the trip, Fredrick responded quickly and warmly, adjusting and communicating promptly based on our needs and questions. Our guide was Sebastian, and I have to say, he was the key to our perfect experience. His driving skills were superb, fast, and steady throughout. Communication with him was comfortable, and he had a great personality. Each day’s itinerary was comfortable and personalized. On the first morning of our safari in Tsavo, we saw many lions, which was especially thrilling. Whenever we received information, the immediate rush to the spot was exciting. On the morning of the hot air balloon safari, Sebastian picked us up directly at the bush breakfast location, which was very thoughtful and saved a lot of time. This travel experience was perfect, and we were reluctant to part ways. Looking forward to meeting again next time!

Amazing guide and chef
Amazing experience from start to finish! We did this safari, my wife and I, and everything went great.
Florien, our guide and driver, is the best you can find, with +10 years of experience he knows every single corner of the parks (Serengeti, Ngorongoro and Tarangire) and he was constantly looking around to see if he could spot the animals (such an incredible catcher!). Sometimes doing only the main roads is tricky because it can get crowded, so he always tried to look for alternatives, even if it meant to drive more time and far away, but when we spotted the animals we were there alone and without any rush from the other cars.
Moshi, our chef, is an amazing cooker and such a lovely person. He cooked every meal we had and everything was super tasty and homemade. Every day we had different meals to taste and he always tried to explain what was the food, how to eat it and was served always hot (which is great specially when you just wake up and you taste that amazing hot breakfast.
Definitely something to repeat and to recommend this team!

Eddie the Happy Chappy
Eddie was an incredible guide. He owns his name (Eddie the Happy Chappy). I enjoyed my time with him, because when we asked questions he answered each one and deeper than we expected. Also, I must thank him for his endeavour to see the most animals possible. He asked for any track of them and we succeeded.
I have nothing bad to say about him, he was amazing.
