Amazing journey.
5/5

Thanks for Axis for arranging a very nice guide for us!
Khalifa is an amazing guide — very professional and experienced. He really knows how to find animals and has his own unique way of tracking them, instead of just following where others go. He’s also super nice and easy to talk to, always sharing interesting stories about local culture and life. On top of that, he’s a kind person who often helps people in need. We truly enjoyed our safari with him!

The perfect week with Dens of Africa!
5/5

We, a 30-year old couple from Denmark, had the most amazing week of safari with Dens of Africa. In 7 days we visited Amboseli, Naivasha, Hells Gate, Nakuru and Masai Mara and we got very close to animals in a respectful matter.

June was a great help in the organizing, and she helped create the itinerary matching our wishes as well as finding accommodation matching our budgets and still being beautiful and well located. She was transparent and good at communicating, and we felt in good hands long before arriving in Kenya.

Timan, our guide for the week, was outstanding. His knowledge of the animals is impressive and he learned us so much about them as well as about Kenyan culture. He is always thinking ahead, making sure that we were safe and having the best possible experience. His many years of experience is evident. We could not have dreamt of a better guide.

Our warmest recommendations for Dens of Africa, especially June and Timan.

Brilliant - no words could explain how good they treated us. Unforgettable.
5/5

Great experience with Osward and Emanuel.
We spent five incredible honeymoon days feeling great. They assisted us as if we were family and made sure we were having the best time.
Without a shadow of a doubt, we would repeat this trip with Africa Merit.
Unbeatable!!!! Let’s go, team!!!

Charles showed us many animals and introduced them very professionally. Charles also taught himself a lot of Chinese, which made us feel his enthusiasm and friendliness. Thank you very much!

Really bad experience
1/5

We organized our 7-day honeymoon with them.
First of all, I want to emphasize that the bad experience was probably due to the agent who handled our tour, Marta.
We had some issues during the first few days and tried to contact her — she never answered the phone. In fact, all communication was via email, and we repeatedly told her we wanted to speak with her, to which she refused.

When we organized the tour, we purposely left one day free in Arusha to decide later what to do. This was due to a last-minute change in our flight, and since the wedding was just a few weeks away, we decided to figure it out once there. To our surprise, she told us nothing could be done and suggested we visit a museum. I told her no, that this was not what we had agreed on, but she never responded or answered the phone. I had to find another agency at the last minute to avoid wasting a whole day of safari.

Additionally, they gave us a driver who was not from the agency. How do I know? Because:
1. The car had no company identification.
2. The driver had no idea who to contact.
3. He forgot the thermal bag for transporting hot meals, which meant we ended up having many picnic-style meals even though we had paid for hot food.
4. The vehicle was extremely uncomfortable, with no air conditioning. We had to drive with the windows down all day, and we ended up covered in dust. I can assure you that the other safari vehicles were not like this.
5. The car had no headrests, which made it very uncomfortable after spending 10–12 hours a day in the car.

Finally, they arranged an airport transfer for us from Arusha to Nairobi. Our flight was at 12:30 p.m., and they picked us up at 6:30 a.m. The drivers were shocked because the journey takes over 5 hours, and thanks to the traffic — and sheer luck — we barely made it. On top of that, we had to bribe customs staff to let us through or we would have missed the flight.
The driver’s exact words: “Anyone who has done this route or lives here knows it’s impossible to make this trip in such a short time.”

We contacted Marta again and I’m still waiting for a response.

To me, this has been a complete scam. I paid €7,000 for 7 days and they couldn’t even provide basic support during the safari. If anything had happened to us, I’m sure they wouldn’t have responded.
A terrible agency. If I came back, I’d definitely choose options like Safari Africano or Beach Safari.

This safari was absolutely fantastic, boasting the best Fabhil and Safari by z
5/5

Our seven-day itinerary delivered all the wildlife and moments we’d dreamed of—especially cheetahs and leopards just steps from our vehicle. Our guide not only secured us prime viewing spots but even anticipated where the animals would roam next. We even waited seven hours for the breathtaking Mara River crossing—what some call the “Heavenly River Passage”—and it was worth every minute. Everything was magical. Our guide Fabhil was phenomenal, Safari by z unfailingly responsible. An absolute must-do.
