Safari Experience with Laso
We had an absolutely wonderful safari experience, and a huge part of what made the trip so memorable was our guide, Laso. He was incredibly skilled, experienced, attentive, and genuinely determined to make sure we had the best possible experience.
Laso had an amazing ability to position the vehicle so that we could get the best views and photos of the animals. Whenever he heard over the radio that something had been spotted, he reacted immediately and did everything possible to get us there in time. He expertly navigated rough terrain, crossed rivers, drove through bushes, and maneuvered the vehicle into the perfect position for us to see the wildlife. Thanks to his persistence, experience, and determination, we saw an incredible number of animals, including all of the Big Five.
At the same time, I always felt completely safe with him. He is an excellent and very alert driver who clearly has extensive experience. He was also passionate about sharing his knowledge, explaining the animals, their behavior, and everything we were seeing along the way. He was wonderful with our children and made the experience interesting and enjoyable for the whole family.
Beyond the game drives, Laso was extremely accommodating and flexible. He happily adjusted stops for particular breakfast and lunch places we wanted to visit, made sure we always had enough water, and took great care of us throughout the trip. He was always punctual - usually already waiting for us before we were ready - and consistently explained what we would be doing, where we were going, and what to expect next. Everything was organized and clear, the itinerary was followed smoothly, yet he was always willing to be flexible when we wanted something different.
We feel extremely lucky that Laso was our guide. His professionalism, enthusiasm, patience, driving skills, knowledge, and determination to find wildlife truly made our safari exceptional. Not every guide will go to the same lengths to create this kind of experience, and Laso really stands out.
I would highly recommend specifically asking for Laso when booking with Axis Safari.

Adventure in Mara
We booked a 3 nights and 4 days package Axis Safaris after watching many excellent reviews on YouTube. From the initial enquiries: Number of people, Safari requirements, Different Lodge options and answering any other questions, Rita from Axis Safaris was absolutely brilliant with very good customer service.
A day before the Safari, we received a message from Axis confirming pick up by the driver and the driver also reached out directly. We arrived at thier offices to drop off our excess luggage to be kept securely and were introduced to our Safari Tour Guide Charles Kyalo who from the start to the end was professional, courteous, patient and explained everything very clearly to everyone.
We saw the Big 5 Inc Leopard and also many Lions with cubs, Elephants, Giraffes at Mara and White Rhinos, Lions, lots of Flamingos at Lake Nakuru. We as a family of 2 adults and 2 children loved every single moment and will cherish this Safari experience. I will highly recommend Axis Safaris and Charles Kyalo as a guide. Until next time Kwaheri na Asante Sana 👍

An unforgettable experience that exceeded all my expectations!
I just finished my safari with Suricata, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. From the very first moment, everything was perfectly organized, but what truly made this trip extraordinary was our guide, Ecky.
Ecky is a top-tier professional. His knowledge, experience, constant kindness, and deep passion for his work shine through in every detail. I especially want to highlight his incredible ability to adapt to our timing and preferences; he perfectly understood us and the exact way we wanted to experience this adventure. He went above and beyond at every turn to make sure we had an incredible, tailor-made journey.
I also have to mention our stay at Suricata Boma, which was simply superlative: comfort, great service, and the perfect atmosphere to unwind after a day on safari.
I without a doubt recommend Suricata to anyone looking for an authentic, top-quality experience. A huge thank you to Ecky for creating memories that will stay with me forever!

Great journey with the best guide ever.
We spent definitely unforgettable time with Aslam who is the best guide ever i met.
In safari, we encountered many species of wild animals, include migrating of wildebeests.
This is my best decision that I trust my guide KAKA.
Tanzania savanna enriches my life.

Amazing tour with the best tour guide in Tanzania

We highly recommend Kiliclimb Africa Safaris!
From the very beginning, the team was incredibly helpful, friendly, patient, and attentive. They listened carefully to all our requests, showed great flexibility, and managed to organize the perfect safari for us at very short notice—which made the task especially challenging.
They also arranged our return flight from Arusha to Zanzibar and personally welcomed us at Arusha Airport with safari shirts and hats as lovely gifts.
Our driver was excellent, and the safari jeep was spacious and very comfortable. He knew exactly where to take us, helped us see the best wildlife, and made sure we had everything we needed throughout the trip.
All our accommodations were comfortable, well organized, and perfectly suited to our family’s needs.
Kiliclimb Africa Safaris offered us an extremely competitive price compared with other companies, while providing outstanding service and a truly unforgettable experience. We were extremely happy with every aspect of our trip and wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone planning a safari in Tanzania!

Fantastic
My husband and I booked a private, custom 7 day tour of Uganda and Rwanda that included visiting the Gorillas in both countries, the Golden Monkeys, and Chimps. The price was reasonable, the owner, Edison, was responsive, professional and attentive. Our guide, Herbert, far exceeded our expectations. He was an expert at spotting animals and his knowledge of each animal was impressive. Herbert was friendly and kind to the wildlife, to us and to others around him. I can't say enough good things about Herbert. We would absolutely recommend using Bamboo Ecotours and Herbert again.

I highly recommend Jacmiya Safaris to anyone planning a Kenya safari.
The communication was smooth and responsive from pre-trip planning all the way until the end of our journey. What impressed us most was their outstanding reliability and thoughtful service. Special mention goes to our agent Fred and our guide Nickson. On our arrival day, our flight suffered a long delay. Fred and Nickson waited patiently for us for three hours without any complaints. When we mentioned we were hungry, they kindly helped us buy lunch to recharge.
Guide Nickson looked after every member of our group attentively and cared about everyone’s needs. If anyone felt unwell, he would take us to the pharmacy and even buy medicine for us.
The itinerary was well-planned, and Nickson had excellent wildlife knowledge. He always tried his best to locate animals during game drives. We witnessed countless amazing wildlife encounters including elephants, zebras and other savanna creatures. We believe this tour offers fantastic value for money, with transparent arrangements and no hidden charges.
Unfortunately, adjustments had to be made to our schedule due to the flight delay, leaving us with limited safari time. We only managed two game drives in the private wildlife sanctuary next to Salt Lick Safari Lodge. We were a little disappointed that we ultimately could not visit Tsavo West National Park as we expected.
The team remained flexible and caring whenever we had small requests. If you want a trustworthy operator who treats guests sincerely, choose Jacmiya Safaris.
