Perfect Safari agency
We had an amazing experience! Everything was perfectly organized, from the communication and service to the tour itself. The tour was enjoyable, reliable, and definitely worth the money. A special mention goes to our guide Robin, who was extremely professional, knowledgeable, and friendly. He did a fantastic job and made the experience even more special. We had a wonderful time and would absolutely recommend this tour to other travelers!

Safe, assured, happy, enjoyable and did exactly what they promised
We were skeptical initially coming from India for the first visit to Kenya. However, Leopard Orchid Safari team put us at ease the moment we arrived at Nairobi airport. Paul, our guide and driver was so safe, calm and efficient, his knowledge of the roads and the terrain was so comforting, we felt extremely safe with his presence. Ambolesi was awesome with the tuskers, the observatory hill gave a great voew of the park, Lake Naivasha was a treat with the hippos and visit to Cresent Island where we could walk with the girafees and zebras (at a safe distance). Navararu stay was superb with great views of Meninghi crater, we had a great walk to the crater with George our walking guide (George of the Jungle!), Masai mara was a treat with the Lions, Cheetahs, the best part of the visit was the Hot air ballon ride with Mohammed, the pilot and the 5-star Champagne breakfast in the middle of the safari. The ride back to Nairabi was smooth, we are so thankful to Leopard Orchid Safaris and especially to Paul for making this once in a lifetime trip so memorable

Efficient and easy to communicate with Tabitha
I joined a 5 day safari with Khalifa as the guide. I had no issues being a single female traveller.
Our day in Masai Mara was an absolute hilite. Khalifa (Captain) knew the park intimately. He located 4 of the Big Five on that day and we enjoyed special sightings, sometimes being the only vehicle present.
He is a very kind man and was generous with his knowledge and help. Having been a guide for over 20 years his experience shone through and we benefited.
A visit to a Masai village was very genuine and showed us a different perspective on life.
Accommodation was good and the food also fresh and plentiful.
There was a lot of road travel involved and perhaps on the last 2 days we could have added something extra. However, saying that, our long days went very quickly.
The office staff (Tabitha in particular) was very pleasant to deal with.
I would definitely recommend Axis Africa Safaris and Khalifa, in particular, if you choose to visit Kenya.

Extremely knowledgeable
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ An Unforgettable Safari Experience!
We had the most incredible experience on our safari in Tanzania, and a huge part of that was because of our amazing guide, Brighton! 🦁🐘🦒
We were celebrating our 10-year anniversary, and this trip was already so special to us, but Brighton truly made it unforgettable. He was incredibly friendly, kind, patient, and made us feel comfortable and safe throughout the entire safari. His knowledge was unbelievable—no matter what we asked, he always had an answer and took the time to explain everything to us.
We were so lucky to see every animal we hoped for and more, and Brighton knew exactly where to go and when to be there. You could tell he genuinely loves what he does and takes pride in giving his guests the best experience possible.
We are so grateful for all the memories we made and will be talking about this safari for years to come. If you are planning a safari in Tanzania, I highly recommend requesting Brighton as your guide! We will absolutely recommend him to all of our family and friends. ❤️🇹🇿
Thank you, Brighton, for helping make our 10-year anniversary trip so incredibly special! 🥰

Festo was the besto!
4 of us had the time of our lives. Festo was a perfect guide. How he spotted animals and drove at the same time was remarkable. We saw all the big 5! Stayed in luxurious accommodations and enjoyed every minute. Festo made us feel comfortable and safe and worked beyond our expectations to make this a rememberable trip. Saw a female lion in the morning just outside our room at the amazing Manyara Serena Lodge who was guarding her recent zebra kill. The area was guarded by staff to assure safety as the lion was surely waiting for her opportunity to enjoy a meal, but was a true example of the circle of life. Note to self, do NOT leave your room alone after dark. Staff will safely guide you to dinner and back! Even got to hear lions quietly roar in the middle of the night at the KubudKubu tent camp. Very cool! Accommodations exceeded our expectations as did all the animals who came very close to our vehicle. Highly recommend without hesitation. Request Festo, he’s the besto!

We had a great time!
We spent two wonderful days with Shady in Amboseli National Park. Absolutely everything worked out perfectly (from our pick-up at the hotel in Nairobi to the drop-off at the airport) and Shady was such great company. There was not a question during our safari that he couldn’t answer. :-) Also Amboseli Sopa Lodge, where we spent the night, was really beautiful so that we would have loved to stay longer. We will definitely book with this company again! :-)

Once in a lifetime travel
We lived a once in a lifetime experience with Pride Mark Safari thanks to Amos and the 13 days tailor-made trip.
Our stages were Ziwa, Murchinson Falls NP, Queen Elizabeth, Kalinzu forest, Ishasha sector, Bwindi, Mgahinga Gorilla NP, Lake Bunyonyi, Lake Mburo NP and finally Entebbe.
We chose mid-range accomodations and I really loved Tabingi, Ishasha Pride and Eagle’s Nest lodges.
Amos leadership, animal and culture knowledge and driving capabilities were always perfect. He satisfied every desired we had during the travel planning, as consequence if you have any wish let him know everything in advance and he will take care of it.
One final consideration on gorilla trekking: before taking it I thought it would be amazing…but I assure you it’s way more fascinating than the expectation. Simply once in a lifetime experience.
I totally recommend Amos and Pride Mark Safari for your Uganda Travel.
