Life time experience
My 4-day, 3-night experience with Suricata Safari was the trip of a lifetime.
From booking and airport pickup to local supplies and the safari itself, everything was smooth with exceptionally clear communication and support.
All staff were friendly, and I especially want to thank our guide, Melita!
Melita actively checked what animals we wanted to see and accommodated everyone's needs brilliantly. Naturally, we saw all of the Big Five, and even had the miraculous experience of witnessing a topi giving birth right before my eyes.
All the lodges we stayed at during the safari were great, and as a solo traveler joining a group, the other people in the group were also amazing.
One slight point of improvement: I traveled alone, but was assigned twin beds at two lodges consecutively. Although I communicated with the hotel to get the rooms changed, it would have been nice if they had asked about room preferences in advance.

An incredible safari experience we will never forget
We had a wonderful 7-day safari with Jimela Africa Safaris and overall it was an experience we would absolutely recommend.
Our guide, Wilson, played a huge role in making the trip so enjoyable. He was friendly, attentive and incredibly knowledgeable about the wildlife and the different areas we visited. We learned so much from him throughout the week, and he always made an effort to help us get the most out of every game drive.
The Masai Mara was probably our favourite part of the safari. The amount and variety of wildlife we saw was incredible. Wilson is originally from the area, so his knowledge of the Mara made the experience even better, as he was able to explain so much about the animals, the landscape and the local environment.
Lake Nakuru was also a great experience. We were unlucky with the weather and had quite a lot of rain, but despite that we still managed to see four of the Big Five, which made the visit completely worth it.
Another very special part of the trip was Amboseli. We were lucky enough to see Mount Kilimanjaro clearly and spent the day surrounded by elephants and amazing scenery. It was definitely one of the most beautiful moments of the whole safari.
If we could change one thing about the itinerary, it would probably be the time spent at Lake Naivasha. For us, a full day there felt a little unnecessary, particularly because most of the activities available were not included in the original price and had to be paid separately. Our experience with the activities that day was also not as good as in the other destinations.
However, this was only a small downside in what was otherwise an incredible week. The safari was well worth the money, we saw more wildlife than we could have imagined and came home with some unforgettable memories. We would definitely recommend Jimela Africa Safaris, and especially Wilson, to anyone looking for a safari in Kenya.

Sadaam was friendly, knowledgeable, punctual and created a great environment for my daughter and I!
Axis met all my expectations! I was scared to do this alone with a child, but Tabitha was phenomenal in helping us plan and Sadaam made us feel welcomed, safe and made sure we were enjoying ourselves. Highly recommend.

Cordial people and they provide us a BEAUTIFUL experience
Exactly as I have always imagined a safari and Tanzania. Every person we met was kind, friendly, hospitable, and welcoming. The guides were always there to help us with any little emergency and to spot every animal in the vastness of the parks. The accommodations were comfortable and fully met what had been agreed upon at the time of booking.
We truly recommend this experience. Jambo and HAKUNA MATATA!! 🐘🦓🦁🧡

Fulfilling the dream of an African safari
Our 7-days safari in Kenya is coming to an end. Thanks to Axis Africa Safaris, it’s an experience we’ll cherish for a long time. It was wonderful and exceeded all our expectations!
I’d like to give a huge thank you to Lucy for her professional advice and quick responses whenever needed (and patience with such a demanding client as myself. She worked miracles to secure the accommodations we had chosen, and everything was organized to the highest standard. We visited Tsavo, Amboseli, Nakuru, Naivasha, and the Masai Mara. Each of these parks is unique and well worth a visit.
A massive thank you goes to Ben as well. I’m not sure if he’s a better driver or a better guide. We felt completely safe with him, both on the road and during the safari (he knew exactly what to do when one of us suffered a dangerous wasp sting). On top of that, he has the eyes of a hawk and a deep understanding of animal behavior. He knew exactly when to wait during the safari and when it was best not to waste time. Spotting the "Big Five" with him seemed so easy...
He also possesses a wealth of knowledge that he was happy to share.
Highly recommended.
And finally, if anyone is wondering whether a hot-air balloon ride over the Masai Mara is worth it—yes, it is an absolute must. Even my fear of heights didn't stop me from doing it.

Full Package Adventures
We had an absolutely wonderful four-day safari with Full Package Adventures visiting Lake Manyara, the Serengeti, and the Ngorongoro Crater. The whole experience was perfectly organized from beginning to end.
A special mention goes to the agent Jonsbert who planned our safari. His organizational skills were exceptional, and everything was arranged smoothly and efficiently, allowing us to simply relax and enjoy every moment of the journey.
Our guide, Babuu, was truly outstanding. He was an excellent and very safe driver, extremely knowledgeable about the wildlife, nature, and local area, and always happy to share interesting information with us. His expertise made the safari even more fascinating and memorable. He was also incredibly helpful, attentive, and available whenever we needed him, always going the extra mile to make sure we were comfortable and enjoying the experience.
Thanks to the excellent organization and, above all, to our fantastic guide, this safari was an unforgettable experience. We would highly recommend this company and this safari to anyone looking for a perfectly organized and truly memorable adventure in Tanzania!
