Professional, helpful
the pleasure of going on a safari in Tanzania, and I can’t help but praise the company that made it all happen. From start to finish, they were professional, knowledgeable, and passionate about the wildlife and culture. The guides were outstanding, ensuring we saw incredible animals while feeling safe and inspired. I left with unforgettable memories and would wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone dreaming of a safari experience!
It was truly amazing! I have to highlight our guide, who went above and beyond. In every situation, he was incredibly helpful—whether it was spotting animals, sharing fascinating stories, or making sure we were comfortable and informed. His dedication and warmth made the whole experience even more special. I’m so grateful and would recommend this company wholeheartedly!

Amazing 😻
We had an amazing Kenya safari experience with Axis. The planning process was smooth, and Tabitha was incredibly responsive, helpful, and prompt with every query. Our guide, Khalifa, was outstanding—professional, friendly, and extremely knowledgeable about the Masai Mara. His expertise helped us spot incredible wildlife and made the whole trip unforgettable. Highly recommend Axis for anyone planning a safari in Kenya!

Guide: Kelvin Waigi
Where do I even begin. Kelvin is not just a guide, he is a storyteller, a tracker, and one of the most passionate people I have ever met. My partner Carmen and I came to Amboseli with high hopes, and Kelvin exceeded every single one of them.
From the very first game drive, it was clear this man was on a different level. He read the land like a map animal behaviour, wind direction, distant dust clouds, things we would have driven straight past.
Elephants A massive herd of 30 crossing the plain with Kilimanjaro rising behind them. Kelvin knew everything about them, Jaw-dropping.
Lions — He spotted a lioness stalking through tall grass that we would have completely missed. We watched her and two cubs for nearly an hour.
Cheetah — The highlight of the trip. A mother with three cubs resting under an acacia. Kelvin told us most visitors never see cheetah in Amboseli. We felt incredibly lucky.
Buffalo, Hippos, Giraffes, Zebras — All spectacular, always perfectly positioned by Kelvin for photos.
Birds — Kelvin is a brilliant birder too. He pointed out the Lilac-breasted Roller, Grey Crowned Cranes, Pelicans gliding over the swamps, a Spur-winged Goose, Blacksmith Plovers by the waterline, Marabou Storks, Superb Starlings.
The only sadness was that Kelvin couldn't join us for the Masai Mara leg — we were flying and a different vehicle was arranged there. We genuinely considered changing the plan just to keep him with us. That is how good he is.
Kelvin, thank you. You made our Kenya safari the most memorable trip of our lives. We will be back and will be asking for you by name.
Plus he speaks no only English but Spanish, as well!

His ability to spot animals from unbelievable distances was amazing, and he always made sure we were in the best position for incredible sightings and photos.Kelvin is from the Maasai community, and one of the most special parts of our journey was learning about Maasai culture directly from him. He generously shared stories, traditions, customs, and insights into Maasai life, which added a unique and enriching dimension to our safari experience.Beyond being an excellent guide, Kelvin is a wonderful person—kind, patient, and always smiling. He shared fascinating information about the animals, local culture, and Tanzania throughout the trip, making the experience both exciting and educational.Thanks to Kelvin, our safari became a true once-in-a-lifetime experience that we will never forget. He made us feel like family from the very first day and was a huge part of making this trip one of the best travel experiences we’ve ever had.We highly recommend him to anyone visiting Tanzania.

An unforgettable Amboseli safari with expert service from Kelvin Waigi
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ — Axis Safaris | Guide: Kelvin Waigi
My partner Enrique and I visited Amboseli with high expectations, and Kelvin exceeded every one of them.
From our first game drive, it was clear that Kelvin is an exceptional guide. His knowledge of animal behaviour, tracking skills, and understanding of the landscape allowed us to experience wildlife encounters we would have otherwise missed.
Some of the highlights included a huge elephant herd crossing the plains beneath Mount Kilimanjaro and the unforgettable sight of a cheetah attempting to hunt a group of wildebeest. We also enjoyed incredible sightings of buffalo, hippos, giraffes, zebras, baboons, and a remarkable variety of birdlife.
Kelvin’s expertise extended beyond mammals. His passion for birding helped us spot numerous species, including Lilac-breasted Rollers, Grey Crowned Cranes, Pelicans, Spur-winged Geese, Blacksmith Plovers, Marabou Storks, and Superb Starlings.
What made the experience even better was Kelvin himself. He was always friendly, professional, and attentive, providing excellent service throughout our stay. As Spanish travellers, we especially appreciated that he spoke not only excellent English but also Spanish, which made communication easy and added a personal touch to the experience.
The only disappointment was that Kelvin could not accompany us on the Masai Mara portion of our trip. We genuinely considered changing our plans just to continue travelling with him.
Kelvin, thank you for making our Kenya safari one of the most memorable experiences of our lives. We will definitely return and will be asking for you by name.
