wonderful and beautiful
Gilbert was an excellent, professional guide. We were able to see everything we wanted to see of the Big Five thanks to him. He was very kind, nice and attentive to travelers….

Africa Cycling is the best active way to experience Kenia, it's wildlife, villages and people.
We did the Twin Peaks tour. 16 full days (always up early) with Rene as a very pleasant tour guide.
It was a dream trip!
We saw various national wildlife parks and conservatoires while traveling on our (electric) bikes, walking, or in the 4x4.
It is very special to encounter giraffes, zebras, and antelopes while on a bike. It is spectacular to be confronted with elephant families while cycling or walking. Very close, but it felt safe, thanks to the expert guidance of rangers, Maasai, or Rene.
From the 4x4, we saw the complete Big Five. We were lucky 😀.
The vast majority of this tour was on rough roads. (Unpaved, bumps, stones, sand, ruts) This was unexpectedly tough for me. I am used to cycling, but not to this level of mountain biking. Still, the wonderful encounters with Kenyan people in small villages along these rough roads easily outweigh the tired arms and shoulders left by the road surface.
Rene always let the group (five guests) make the choices regarding participation in program activities, taking breaks, having a Coke at a local shop, etc.
The accommodations ranged from simple basics to pleasant luxury. Always with very nice people, a unique atmosphere, and good, tasty food.
It has been an unforgettable, very impressive super trip. Highly recommended.💚

Incredible
Hi there. I've just completed day 3 of my 4 day safari with Kelvin from Axis Africa Expedition and Safaris. Everything about this tour has surpassed my expectations. I have been trying to do this safari for over a decade so I was a little nervous. All of the communication with Tabitha was so easy and very timely. Her service was excellent right from the beginning.
When the tour started, Kelvin was amazing from the start. The driving alone is so hard on these treacherous roads and he made us feel very safe. He was incredible at finding these amazing moments and memories on the tour. I know some of it was luck but you can tell he's VERY experienced and he has great connections with many other drivers, to help find us the best moments with the animals. We saw ALL of the big five by day two!! He was very warm and knowledgeable, but also always professional. If you get Kelvin as your guide, you've truly locked out.

An Unforgettable Safari Experience with Suricata Safaris
Our safari with Suricata Safaris was absolutely amazing and unforgettable! Amiri was an incredible guide, very knowledgeable, friendly and professional. We were lucky to see the Big Five and many other amazing animals, and we got fantastic photos throughout the trip. Our international group was wonderful and we had so much fun together. The lodges were beautiful and comfortable, and the food was excellent. Everything was perfectly organized from beginning to end. We could not have wished for a better safari experience. Highly recommended!

Excellent
We had a wonderful 7 days in Kenya with Axis Safaris and our wonderful guides Yasin and Jombe. They took such good care of us, provided lots of water for the game drives and were very knowledgeable on the best vantage points to see the wildlife. We managed to see the Big 5 (plus 2 cheetahs!), the great migration and even a river crossing where we were the only 2 cars there (we waited for a relatively short 2 hours by the river bank). Thanks Yasin and Jombe for encouraging us to be patient and quiet so we could see that once in a lifetime experience. Thank you also for taking such great pictures of us, driving us safely, and for sharing so much information about Kenya and its incredible wildlife. We had an epic trip and we hope to be back again!
