Axis created a very seamless experience, I would highly recommend them to anyone visiting Kenya.
We visited Masai Mara and Amboseli for a 6-day safari. It was an incredible experience overall, especially Masai Mara. Tony our tour guide was extremely knowledgeable and managed to show us every single animal we wanted to see. He intentionally used routes that were not crowded with other safari jeeps that made the experience feel very personalized. He could spot the animals (including all five of the Big 5) from very far away and then would quickly bring us super close to the animals. We got amazing pictures of lions, cheetahs, giraffes, etc. with multiple instances of predators with their kills and playing with their cubs.

Very accommodating and helpful.
We had a wonderful 7 day safari. Our guide George was a treasure and took very good care of us and was able to explain a lot about Kenya and the animals.
The communication with the organizer went smoothly and without waiting time.
We would travel again with Tembea.

Excellent tour operator: perfectly organized, great meals, stays, guides and unforgettable safari!
Our experience with Samora Explorers was absolutely amazing from beginning to end. Everything was perfectly organized, and communication was always clear, easy and reliable.
The package offered excellent value for money and included everything we needed for a wonderful safari experience. The accommodations were carefully selected, comfortable and in beautiful locations, and the meals and packed lunches during the safari were always very good. Every detail was taken care of, so we could simply relax and enjoy the experience.
A special mention goes to our guide, Reginald, who was truly outstanding. He was professional, friendly, patient and incredibly knowledgeable. Throughout the safari, he shared so many interesting facts and stories about the animals, their behavior and the parks, making every game drive even more fascinating. He always listened to what we were most interested in seeing and did his very best to find the animals we hoped to see. Thanks to his experience and dedication, we had incredible wildlife encounters and saw everything we had dreamed of seeing.
We couldn’t have asked for a better safari experience and would definitely recommend Samora Explorers to anyone planning a safari in Tanzania. It was an unforgettable experience and one of the highlights of our trip. Thank you Samora Explorers, and especially Reginald, for making it so special!

An Amazing 5-Day Safari Experience
We had an amazing five-day safari with Abantubo Safaris and truly enjoyed every part of the experience. Everything was very well organised, from the transportation and communication to the accommodation. The lodges and camps we stayed in were beautiful and comfortable, and the whole trip felt smooth and stress-free. Our guide was friendly, knowledgeable and always made sure we had a great experience. We saw so many incredible animals and had unforgettable moments throughout the safari. We are very happy with the organisation and would definitely recommend Abantubo Safaris to anyone looking for a well-organised and memorable safari experience.

Well organised and very helpful.
This was a trip we had planned and saved up for a few years. We had been to Kenya before and wanted to come back to Diani on the coast and also do a fuller Safari than previously.
Morningstar put together a great itinerary. They were flexible to our needs and made changes where needed. For example we booked the villa in Diani ourselves.
Communication over WhatsApp was prompt and effective.
Rono, our Safari guide was excellent and worked extremely hard, and is also knowledgeable about the national parks and the local environment.
There were so many highlights and special moments.
Seeing all the big 5. Seeing a cheetah for the first time. Seeing the great migration in the Masai Mara.
There were also a few hidden gems based upon local knowledge such as the walking Safari on Crescent island and the boat trip on Lake Naivasha.
All in all a wonderful and memorable holiday.

Amiri was an incredibly knowledgeable, caring and passionate guide who made our safari unforgettable
Our safari with Amiri was absolutely unforgettable. From the very first day, he impressed us with his incredible knowledge, his passion for nature and his ability to spot even the smallest animals from a distance.
Thanks to Amiri, we had the opportunity to see the Big Five, which was already an incredible experience. He also introduced us to the Ugly Five, something we had never even heard of before. He taught us so many interesting things about the animals, their behavior and the ecosystem, and every day we learned something new.
What made our safari even more special was that Amiri taught us so much about Tanzanian culture, traditions and everyday life. Whenever we passed through villages, towns or other places on our way to the national parks, he would always explain what we were seeing. Instead of simply driving in silence, he always made sure that we understood what was happening around us and helped us see Tanzania from a much deeper perspective.
We learned so much about Tanzanian wildlife and culture, which made the whole experience much more meaningful.
Amiri always took the time to answer all of our questions and made sure we had the best possible experience. He provided an amazing all around service throughout the entire safari. He was not only an excellent safari guide and a very careful driver, but also took care of us in every little detail, from helping with our luggage to making sure everything was prepared for us.
Whether we wanted to spend more time watching an animal, take pictures or ask questions, he always gave us the time we needed. His ability to spot animals was incredible. He would notice animals so quickly, even when they were far away or well hidden, which meant we were able to see so many different animals that we might otherwise have missed.
His calm, friendly and caring personality made us feel comfortable from the very beginning. By the end of the safari, Amiri felt like much more than just our guide. He became a friend who shared an incredible adventure with us, and saying goodbye was honestly difficult.
We are already thinking about doing another safari in Tanzania, and there is absolutely no question that we would choose Amiri again. If you are looking for a guide who is knowledgeable, friendly, passionate, patient and truly cares about his guests, we can wholeheartedly recommend him.
Thank you, Amiri, for making our safari such an unforgettable experience. We will always remember these days and hope to see you again on our next safari! 🦁🐘🐆
5 stars without a doubt!

Amazing. Great service.
We booked with Akondo where immediately Tassiana worked closely with us to ensure we booked exactly what we wanted. She took the time to create several different itinerary’s before confirming the final one.
All transfers were arranged and everything was smooth without issues. Our safari guide Richard was the best and answered any questions we had about the animals we saw. He had an incredible ability to put the safari truck in the right place to view animals within meters and often predicted where they would walk putting us right in-front of the wildlife for an amazing experience. He even got us to see three leopards in one day!
They also booked the second half of our trip in Zanzibar where again nothing has disappointed. We feel the price paid has been well worth the service we have been provided and a trip that is truly memorable. If you want an incredible safari trip then look no further than Akondo! Highly recommended.
