The tour operator was very friendly and made a lot of effort.
The safari was very good. Our guide was called Frank, and he was truly excellent. He listened to all our wishes, accommodated our requests, and put a lot of effort into making the experience special. We were able to see all the animals in the park. We booked the safari through the camp, and everything worked smoothly. The communication and service were outstanding. We definitely recommend it!!

Highly recommended
We had an absolutely amazing 7-day safari in Kenya with Axis Safari, and it was truly the trip of a lifetime!
We visited the Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru, Lake Naivasha, Hell’s Gate National Park (where we even got to cycle among the wildlife!), and Amboseli National Park. Every place was different and brought its own special experiences, and everything was very well organized from beginning to end.
The wildlife was beyond anything we could have imagined. We were incredibly lucky to see almost the entire Big Five, only missing the rhino in the Masai Mara. We saw a leopard, lions, cheetahs, elephants, buffaloes, giraffes, zebras, hippos, crocodiles, hyenas, so many antelopes, and an incredible number of different birds. Every game drive felt like a new adventure, and we were constantly amazed by what we got to see.
The budget accommodations were also a lovely surprise. They were clean, comfortable, and welcoming, with friendly staff and everything we needed after a long day of safari.
And a very special thank you to our guide, Jack! He was absolutely fantastic. His knowledge of the parks and animals was impressive, and you could really see how passionate he is about nature and wildlife. He always did his best to find the animals and give us the best possible sightings, while patiently answering all our questions. He also has a great sense of humor, which made the long drives even more enjoyable!
Thanks to Jack, we had some truly unforgettable moments, especially our encounters with lions, cheetahs, and the leopard. These are memories we will keep for a very long time.
We would wholeheartedly recommend Axis Safari to anyone planning a safari in Kenya. We got an amazing experience for a great price, and everything exceeded our expectations. If you’re thinking about booking a safari, don’t hesitate, you’re in for an incredible adventure!

Lion King and Guide Clement exceeded every expectation
An unforgettable 14-day Northern Circuit safari
Lion King and driver/guide Clement epitomise
passion and professionalism. Lion King clearly stands out from the crowd of tour operators!
From communication and trip planning right through to the actual tour, no wish goes unfulfilled. The choice of hotels was wonderful and the value for money excellent. With Lion King, everything is exceptional, right from the very first minute.
We were extremely lucky to have driver/guide Clement accompanying us on our trip. He puts his heart and soul into his work. You notice that every single day. He has a keen sense of his guests’ needs and what matters to them. He’s the sort of person you enjoy having around. Friendly, patient and professional, his driving style is safe and precise.
A highlight of our trip was seeing the Great Migration in the north of the Serengeti with our own eyes. Thanks to Clement’s driving skills, his knowledge of the national parks and his knack for being ‘in the right place at the right time’, we were incredibly lucky to witness two absolutely spectacular river crossings from the ‘front row’ – complete with crocodiles in action.
Nothing escapes Clement’s eye! We had several leopard sightings: in Tarangire National Park, Lake Manyara, Central Serengeti and Northern Serengeti; on some days in Central Serengeti, up to eighty lions with lots of cubs; a convergence of several elephant herds, totalling over 130 animals, which seemed to pass right by our vehicle within arm’s reach; cheetahs; hippos; giraffes; rhinos in the Ngorongoro Crater and everything else you could possibly wish for.
Our route:
Tarangire National Park
Lake Manyara
Ngorongoro Crater
Central Serengeti
Northern Serengeti
Lake Natron
We would choose Lion King and Clement as our driver/guide again in a heartbeat.

Exceptional service, expert guidance, and a perfectly organized safari experience.
Our safari with Kilimanjaro Bliss was an unforgettable experience from beginning to end. From the first communication, the team was professional, responsive, and extremely helpful in organizing the perfect trip.
A special thank you goes to our guide Pasco, who was truly exceptional. His knowledge of the parks and wildlife, his patience, kindness, and passion made every day special. Thanks to him, we were able to see all of the Big Five and so many incredible moments that we will remember forever. He always went the extra mile, adapted to our wishes, and made sure we enjoyed the safari at our own pace while respecting nature and the animals.
One thing that really stood out was that, thanks to Pasco’s experience and dedication, we never felt like we were following the usual tourist crowds. He knew where to go and how to create a more authentic and personal experience.
The organization, accommodation choices, food, and overall service were excellent. We also truly appreciated how professionally and calmly Kilimanjaro Bliss handled an unexpected situation during our trip, allowing us to continue enjoying our safari without any stress.
We highly recommend Kilimanjaro Bliss to anyone looking for a reliable, passionate, and professional safari operator in Tanzania. They helped create memories that we will treasure for the rest of our lives.

Excellent value private safari — patient expert guide and unforgettable sightings
From the very first email, communication with Jocky Tours was clear, prompt and patient — they answered all our questions before booking and made the whole process reassuring. On the ground, the service was excellent: our guide James was professional, endlessly patient and incredibly skilled at finding wildlife, and Enkorok Mara Camp was comfortable with great food and warm, welcoming staff. In terms of reliability, everything went exactly as promised — the private vehicle, the itinerary and the arrangements were all spot on, with no surprises. The tour itself was unforgettable: over four days James found us lions several times, a leopard feeding on its prey up in a tree, a cheetah, a black rhino and all the other classic Mara animals. For a fully private safari, the value for money was outstanding. We would book with Jocky Tours again without hesitation and highly recommend them — especially guide James.

READ WiTH ATTENTION!!! This is a truly review from professional travelers!
We are professional travelers. After 04 years, 50 countries and several trips, including safaris, we can say with absolutely sure that Axis Safari is a great company.
- The central office exists! So it is not a virtual company.
- The cars are well equipped, clean and reliable.
- All the logistics are provided in full, just as offered.
- The guides are great. In our case, Hassan was really good at finding good spots for animal seeing. He also was respectful with another cars/guides and most important, respected the animals space, giving us chance to see and get some incredible pictures and videos.
If you want some more detailed info, we will be glad to help you organize your Kenya Safari. Just send a Hi on our Insta or YouTube. It's free, don't worry.

Beyond amazing experience!
Everything was absolutely great from start to finish.
Elijah was so helpful planing the perfect itinerary and was extremely responsive. We were greated by the whole team at the start of our safari.
But the best was Lawrence, our guide. We were travelling with young children (3 and 5y) and he was so patient and great with the kids. They absolutely loved him.
He took us to all the best places. We saw all the animals we were hoping to see (including a stunning Leopard sight in Masai Mara). He was extremely knowledgeable and the best guide we could have hoped for!
Thank you again, we are all already missing you!

An amazing safari experience with an outstanding guide
We had an absolutely amazing safari with Axis Africa Expedition & Safaris, and it exceeded all our expectations. A big part of what made this trip so special was our guide, John Mwangi. He was incredibly friendly, patient and passionate about his job. Thanks to his experience, we were able to spot an incredible number of animals, including many that we would never have noticed on our own. He always knew exactly where to go and took the time to make sure everyone had a good view and the chance to take photos. He shared so much interesting information about the animals, their behavior, and the Masai Mara ecosystem.
If you're planning a safari, we would definitely recommend Axis Africa Expedition & Safaris, and if you're lucky enough to have John Mwangi as your guide, you're in for an unforgettable experience!
