Smooth logistics, no surprises, and excellent guides.
Everything the company promised was delivered exactly as agreed: the itinerary, the camps and the logistics all ran smoothly, with no surprises. But the real highlight was our guide and driver, David Mnyama. He has an amazing eye for spotting wildlife, always positioned the vehicle so all eight of us got a great view, and shared fascinating stories about the animals and the area along the way. Warm, patient and always looking after the group. The camps and landscapes were beautiful, but David is what made these six days unforgettable. Highly recommended!

Excellent safari experience with Axis Africa Safaris
We had a wonderful experience with Axis Africa Safaris from start to finish. Every transfer was smooth and on time, and the hotels they arranged were excellent. The whole trip felt well organized, so we could simply relax and enjoy it.
The highlight was our guide, Tony. He is extremely knowledgeable and has an incredible eye for spotting wildlife. Time and again he picked out animals long before we would have noticed them, and he always positioned us for the best possible view. His enthusiasm and expertise made every game drive memorable.
We highly recommend Axis Africa Safaris to anyone planning a trip, and if you can, ask for Tony as your guide.

WOW!
Rose at Luxury Safari is the best. I worked with two other travel agents (both of whom I have used in the past) prior to finding Rose, and they did not even come close to Rose. Rose was efficient, quick to respond, knew what to ask and then knew what to book. Her choices for destinations were excellent and her arrangements for getting between camps was also flawless. I am so glad that I found this company and Rose to arrange our Safari.
I have arranged many vacations in the past but truly enjoyed the professionalism of this company. 10/10 is an unusual rating for me to give, but there were no (underline that) issues of any kind and that made me quite happy.

Excellent
I start by thanking Innocent, with whom I spoke from the first moment and he clarified all my doubts, he was always available during the months of preparation and during the Safari. Everything was perfect, unlike other agencies we never had a problem with the car for example, which is very important. We were able to see most of the animals in the parks, big five included. We left a little later than the other agencies and although this took time away from the game drive it allowed us to get there more rested. Mike was an exceptional guide, he knew the area very well and communicated a lot with the other guides, especially thanks to him we were able to see all the animals. Thank you for this wonderful experience.

A well-organised and reliable tour operator
We had a fantastic time with Shonjoy and were lucky to have two great guides across our safari, Patrick II for our Masai Mara leg and Hasan for the Serengeti.
Patrick II was absolutely exceptional. He’s incredibly seasoned, a fantastic driver, and genuinely kind and thoughtful. His years of experience really showed, from navigating the Mara to knowing exactly where to be at the right time. We couldn’t recommend him highly enough.
Hasan was fantastic for the Serengeti leg too. He was energetic, enthusiastic and clearly knew his way around the enormous park.
Overall, we had an amazing experience with Shonjoy and couldn’t have asked for better guides.

Professional, honest, passionate — they made our honeymoon unforgettable.
I'm not saying this out of politeness — it was genuinely the best experience of our lives.
We found the gorillas, watched a lion family feeding, and saw rhinos up close. But honestly, meeting Fredrick and Joshua felt like the greater stroke of luck.
Fredrick was professional from the first message to the last day — he tailored the whole itinerary to our budget without cutting a single thing that mattered, and it was organized, responsive, and completely reliable throughout.
Joshua is a guide who clearly loves his work and loves nature even more, and that made every single drive something more than sightseeing.
This was our honeymoon, and it turned out to be the best decision my wife and I ever made together. She's now seriously talking about moving to Kenya.
A true once-in-a-lifetime experience. Thank you, Fredrick and Joshua.

Efficient knowledge with a genuine interest in making sure we got all we wanted and more from the ex
We were a crew of 6 interested in seeing Maasai Mara, Nakuru and Naivasha and seeing the birds as well as the mammals. Our guide Alvin was excellent with an interest in the birds gave us all the time and took us to some great birding spots too. And of course making sure we got some brilliant views of all the mammals too. He wad great respect for the wildlife and good insights on their ecologies. The elephants were a real treat. Other highlight was a spotted hyena running through and having a go at a flock of flamingos!

Mr Famous is the best guide ever!
Mr. Maarufu is the best guide we could have hoped for—simply a great guy. He is funny, has a great sense of humor, and possesses immense knowledge. He led our tour fantastically and ensured the highest possible standard of service.
On the safari, we saw a multitude of animals: lions, giraffes, zebras, buffaloes, antelopes, elephants, and hippos.
In addition to the safari, Mr. Famous shared many interesting facts about Tanzania with us.
I am so glad we had a guide like him.

Dreaming safari
An unforgettable safari with Serengeti Smile! Everything was perfect from start to finish. A huge thank you to Piniel for the excellent organization before the trip. On the ground, we were lucky enough to see the complete Big Five thanks to the expert eyes and incredible knowledge of our guide, Nixon. Thank you also to our driver, Nicolas, for his very safe driving and perfect control on all tracks. This is an amazing team that we recommend 100%!
