Amazing safari with Lewis and James
Lewis was our guide and James our chef for our family safari. They were both excellent and made this trip the holiday of a lifetime we had hoped for.
Lewis is knowledgeable, interesting, easy-going, organised and extremely hard working. We have a lot to thank him for. How James manages to produce varied and really tasty food (and masses of it) in pretty basic conditions, is beyond me. We really appreciate them both and would happily recommend them to anyone lucky enough to get them on their tour.

Expert tour operator who goes above and beyond for customer experience.
We joined a 5 day tour with Axis Africa covering Masai Mara - Lake Nakuru - Lake Naivasha as a group of 4. During the initial booking experience, our point of contact Monica quickly provided detailed itinerary and answered all our clarifying questions. The in-depth and professional communication was a significant contributing factor for us choosing this tour over others. In addition to email, contact is also available over WhatsApp and WeChat.
For the tour itself, our guide / driver was Ken. He gave us a warm welcome to Kenya. During the course of the tour, he regularly checked in with us and anticipated our needs including rest breaks and water (we were traveling with our parents and making sure they had a good time was important to us). He also knew exact timing on getting to the parks early to get the best sighting opportunities. It is truly the trip of a lifetime for us to observe a herd of elephants walking close by, a pride of lions tussling with each other, a cheetah lazing around after making a kill, or even spotting the elusive white rhinos. Along with these spotting opportunities, Ken also explained various facts about not just the local fauna but also the local customs and culture. The explanations really demonstrated his passion for his craft and deepened our appreciation for this beautiful country.
At the end of the tour, we even made a silly mistake of leaving behind one of our phones in the vehicle. Monica and Ken helped to make sure it got back to us before our flight.
I really enjoyed our decision to do a safari here in Kenya and Axis Africa made it a truly memorable and delightful experience.

My Kenya safari was gorgeous and stunning.
I recently did a safari in Kenya and it was a whole new experience. The wildlife, open landscapes, and peaceful atmosphere felt so real and untouched. It wasn’t rushed, just natural beauty at its best. Kenya felt like a live documentary-but better. Each day brought something new, elephants crossing in silence, Maasai stories by the fire, skies full of stars. This wasn’t just a trip-it was a deep connection with nature I didn’t know I needed. My guide ( Kasaine ) was knowledgeable and made the trip smooth and enjoyable. I express my gratitude and thanks to Namnyak Tours and Safaris for arranging everything so beautifully.

Come as client leave as friend
I wanted to do my 4th safari and decided at short notice for Kenya so i wrote to five travel agents on this website. Kelvin from Beast Spoor not only responded the fastest, but also provided the most detailed information. He sent me a very detailed itinerary with additional options. He also answered additional questions immediately, so I booked with him.
I had bad luck with my journey and missed my connecting flight but Kelvin was available via WhatsApp and also found immediately a solution for my trip.
When I finally arrived in Kenya and met Kelvin, it already felt like visiting a friend.
Joining a group trip, you may have to be aware that there may be small changes to accommodation or a change of driver during the trip because others in the group don't always have the same trip as you, but that didn't bother me. In the end you always reach your destination.
Hakuna matata & asante sana Beastspoor Safaris!

Wonderful Experience with Heart of Africa Lodge and Safari Tours
As a solo female traveler, finding a safe and well-organized trip was essential. I love vacations, but planning them isn’t my favorite part. Choosing to stay at Heart of Africa Lodge for a week and letting their team handle the details turned out to be one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. The experienced safari tour guide they provided was an incredible bonus!
From the moment I arrived, I was welcomed with warmth and professionalism. The team was transparent, accommodating, and always quick to respond to my emails, ensuring I felt comfortable and well-informed throughout my stay. My hotel room was immaculate, offering the perfect, peaceful retreat for a good night’s sleep or a relaxing afternoon nap.
Safety was a top priority for me, and I felt completely at ease with their 24/7 security guard on site. The lodge itself felt like a tranquil resort, complete with a beautiful courtyard, delicious cuisines , and the friendliest staff. Every detail contributed to an atmosphere of relaxation and comfort.
I wholeheartedly recommend staying at Heart of Africa Lodge and booking a safari with Heart of Africa Safari Tours. The combination of their exceptional service and the breathtaking experiences they offer made my vacation truly unforgettable. Thank you, Heart of Africa Safari Tours, for an extraordinary adventure!
Forever grateful

He was excellent and very professional who knows his job very well with good customer services.
A unique adventure.
The Benson safaris Tanzania are good time keepers. Arrived at pick up point Holili at exactly 7am ready to manoeuvre the foothills of Mt. Kilimanjaro at the Marangu kilasiya falls. Trekking down hill was a scary but adventurous. Enjoyed the view and the cold waters of the falls.
Thereafter, another interesting site to visit was the chagga caves where the history of the chagga community is unfolded.
The best experience was the chemka spring where the foot massage was out of this world expert 🤣.
Kudos to the Benson safaris for the tour and excellent customer service.
Benson safaris ensured we were safe and both within the hotel room and without.
God bless Benson safaris.

Planning a safari can feeling daunting, but Dancing Zebra was fantastic and handled every detail.
Dancing Zebra was wonderful to work with. Jessica's knowledge of Africa and Tanzania combined with her attention to detail and desire to please her clients, made our experience a 10/10 from start to finish. Just give Jessica an idea of what you're looking for and she will put together an itinerary that exceeds your expectations.
We did an 8-night safari (Ngorongoro Crater and Serengeti), plus 3 nights in beautiful Zanzibar at the end of the trip. Every camp/hotel we stayed at was perfectly suited for our needs with good food, excellent service, and luxurious accommodations. Lion's Paw Camp and Siringit Camp were simply spectacular and I cannot recommend them highly enough. The staff at both places will welcome you with smiles and make sure your every need is met. Our safari guide/driver was Robert and he is THE BEST. There is no one else I would trust more to navigate those confusing, complex bumpy, and sometimes muddy roads of the Serengeti. Robert is a walking Wikipedia page of knowledge about the Serengeti and the animals. He made sure we saw EVERYTHING.
As for Zanzibar, I strongly recommend it as a way to wind down and relax after the safari. We stayed at Baraza and it was exceptional in every way. The spa will change your life. It's hard to imagine a more perfect resort anywhere in the world.

Genes is the most amazing tour operator and Kilimanjaro guide.
Climbing Mount Kilimanjaro was always a dream of mine. I was so fortunate to book my adventure with Genes. He was right beside me the entire climb; encouraging, making sure I was safe, healthy, well hydrated and well fed. What an amazing journey it was, one I will never forget!
