The trip was amazing
The trip was very nice and our tourguide Pascal showed us the best places. We saw a lot of animals in the different parks. The scenery was amazing.

Bonny was exceptional! He made our Safari experience unforgettable and showed us beauty of Africa!
We had a great experience with Jocky Tours in Amboseli. Communication was easy, everything was well organised, and the tour was great value for money.
Our guide, Bonny, was excellent - friendly, knowledgeable, and always keen to help us spot wildlife and make the most of our time in the park. We even saw a cheetah up close which was a real highlight.
We’d definitely recommend Jocky Tours and Safaris to anyone planning a safari in Kenya! Thank you so much Bonny!!

Awesome five days
My friends and I had an amazing time hiking Mount Kenya with the Hyrax Safaris crew. All eight members of the team made the entire trip comfortable, enjoyable and truly memorable. The organisation was excellent, the food was great, and the value for money was very good.
Having already travelled around Kenya extensively, we were especially impressed by the crew. They were reliable, professional and genuinely friendly, and we really enjoyed exchanging cultural experiences and hearing about their lives and stories. The conversations around the campfire were some of the highlights of the trip. No one ever mentioned or expected a tip, which made us even happier to give one at the end. We would absolutely recommend Hyrax Safaris to anyone looking for a well-organised, reliable and genuinely enjoyable Mount Kenya experience.

Book with this operator you won’t regret it!
We had the most amazing time with Go Serengeti African Tours. Our guide Peter Mmary…. Where do I even begin. Going on a safari is not just about seeing wild animals. It’s about experiencing wild eastern Africa but feeling safe and cared for at every step. Peter didn’t just guide us to see incredible animals (which we we did - we saw 7 leopards and 3 rhinos plus the big 5 plus 3 river crossings in only 4 days) - but he also took such good care of us and taught us so much about the animals, African culture, and the Swahili language. It was an immersive experience. He’s also very warm, kind, and has a great sense of humor. When we come back and take our family, we’ll request Peter by name.
A big bonus is that Peter is very passionate about photography, so he knows how to position you for the best angles, shots, and light. He actually taught my wife how to use her camera better!
If you’re planning a safari - choose this operator and request Peter, if he’s available. Also, this is very important. Regarding seeing animals - have low expectations and “let nature reveal itself to you” as Peter would say. We were EXTREMELY lucky to see all the animals and crossings we did in 4 days. Part of that was Peter’s instincts. But another part was pure luck. If you go into the experience with too high of expectations, you’ll miss the magic of just being there.
Also, most of the magic happens in the early hours, so if Peter (or whoever your guide is) says let’s leave at 5:30 AM, trust him.

An Unforgettable 40th Birthday Safari – Thank You, Wayne!
If I could give Agent Wayne and the team at Kruger Safari Co. more than 5 stars, I would in a heartbeat.
Planning a milestone trip can be stressful, but Wayne turned what could have been a travel nightmare into absolute perfection. Right before our departure, Lufthansa unexpectedly changed our flight dates. I was devastated, thinking my 40th birthday plans were ruined. But Wayne stepped in without hesitation. He worked tirelessly behind the scenes—rearranging our inland flights, adjusting lodge dates, and shuffling all logistics—to seamlessly accommodate the new schedule. Because of his incredible hard work, I was able to celebrate my birthday exactly as planned, stress-free, in two of the most breathtaking places on earth.
The accommodation choices were spot on. Celebrating on Kruger Shalati (The Train on the Bridge) with its extraordinary views was an unforgettable highlight, and Nkorho Bush Lodge offered such intimate, magical game drives run by the lovely Becker family. Every single transfer Wayne arranged was punctual, comfortable, and completely hassle-free.
Beyond his incredible efficiency, Wayne is one of the genuine gems of travel planning. He made a point to meet us in person at the Johannesburg airport when we arrived, drank a coffee together, and shared fantastic insights and tips about the Kruger region. Throughout our entire journey, he was always just a WhatsApp message away, constantly sending helpful updates so we never had to worry about scheduling or timing for a single second.
Wayne and Kruger Safari Co. turned a dream trip into a lifetime memory. His kindness, dedication, and attention to detail are unparalleled. If you are planning a trip to Africa, do yourself a favor and ask for Wayne—you will be in the best hands possible!

They did an excellent job, the ride with Raymond was very safe, fast and he is an experienced driver
On the safari Raymond told us about all of the animal species, answered all of our questions and helped with all of the issues. The food at the Wildnest camp was delicious and the accommodation was great quality. All of the staff members were really kind. Our car had a lot of space and could fit all of our baggage. I really appreciate the work of our tour guide, he did his best to show us all of the places and animals that were hiding on the Safari. I really recommend Axis Africa Safaris - they are very experienced and did an amazing work.

John was an incredible guide throughout the tour
Axis Africa was amazing! John Mwangi was fantastic! He took care of everyone and answered all the questions we had. He was very considerate of everyone. Not just in our car but other people who came to see the animals. There were no issues with any of the scheduling. Communication was fantastic. Would definitely do it again!
