Super knowledgeable and passionate about showing the best of Rwanda and Uganda!
If you are even thinking about a primate trekking trip to Rwanda and Uganda, look no further than this one right here (and ask for Elton and Dixon as your guides)! This was, without exaggerating, one of THE most magical travel experiences of my life, and it could be yours too.
My friend and I did a 6-day tour that included chimp and golden monkey trekking in Rwanda and gorilla trekking in Uganda. Elton and Dixon made every single part of this trip feel effortless, safe, and super fun. Before we even got on the plane, they sent over a super detailed day-by-day itinerary, packing list, and tips on trekking etiquette so we knew exactly what to expect. The treks themselves were unforgettable. We saw every animal we hoped to see (and more!). Elton and Dixon’s knowledge of the wildlife and local culture was top tier and I left understanding so much more about the region than I anticipated.
Safety and comfort were never a question. Meals were included and delicious and the lodges we stayed in were honestly stunning – made me question if I even wanted to go trekking when I could just enjoy the view right from my balcony.
This was the ultimate trip with equal parts adventure, comfort, and connection with nature. Our group dynamic with Elton and Dixon was genuinely a blast and you could tell they’re both clearly passionate about what they do. I cannot recommend it enough for anyone planning a trip like this. I’m already thinking about what my next trip with Hooves of Africa will be!

Absolutely incredible experience and company!
We had an absolutely incredible experience with Axis Africa Safaris! We booked a custom 5-day private budget safari with slightly upgraded mid-range accommodations in the Maasai Mara, which allowed us to visit the Maasai Mara, Lake Nakuru, and Amboseli—and it was an absolutely amazing value for everything that was included.
All of our accommodations and meals were taken care of, we had warm showers every night, the food was great, and the staff everywhere we stayed were incredibly welcoming. If you’re looking for a safari that gives you an authentic experience at an incredible price without sacrificing comfort, this was the perfect balance.
The absolute highlight, though, was our guide, Mohammad. He was exceptional—knowledgeable, kind, patient, and incredibly dedicated to making sure we saw as much wildlife as possible. Thanks to him, we saw the Big Five within our first two days, along with some truly once-in-a-lifetime moments including a cheetah hunting a gazelle, multiple families of elephants crossings, rare black rhinos, and a wildebeest river crossing.
For a private safari covering three incredible parks in only five days, we could not believe how much we were able to experience. Amazing value, wonderful accommodations and staff, and an unforgettable guide. We would recommend Axis—and especially Mohammad—to anyone planning a safari in Kenya!

Very reliable and excellent service
We honestly had such a wonderful experience with Bushtop travel agency! From the very beginning, communication was so easy and everything felt effortless with Denis our main man. Our group was travelling from different parts of the world, so coordinating dates and plans wasn’t always simple, but Dennis was incredibly patient and flexible with us. They accommodated our preferred dates, hotel choices, and all the little changes along the way without any hassle. They even surprised us with a complimentary hotel upgrade, which we really appreciated! Everything throughout the trip was organized beautifully and ran very smoothly. Our guides James and Joseph were fantastic—friendly, reliable, knowledgeable, and made the entire journey even more enjoyable. We came home with the best memories and would happily recommend them to anyone! ❤️

The best
After having a few problems with my connecting flight my expectations were not too high
After meeting my guide Mohammed my mood started to get better
Axis is very professional and has even better employees
I don’t usually recommend anyone or anything but I would recommend axis and of course my Gide Mohammed, who I kindly renamed “PAPI CHULO “
After experiencing the excellent service he provided I’ve raised my expectations a lot higher than I had before
Way to go Mohammed “papi chulo “
This world needs more people like you

Excellent
Always available and ready to respond to and resolve problems or unexpected issues. We had an amazing time on our safari organized by Mellivora. Everything was perfectly planned, from the airport pick-up to the final drop-off. The itinerary was well-balanced, the staff was exceptionally professional, and every detail was taken care of. A truly 5-star experience that we would repeat in a heartbeat!

Wonderfull Experience With The best Guide
Elias was our guide during the 5 days that lasted the experience. He was always caring of us and was the best driver and guide that we could ever dream of.
They helped us with the delay in our flight and offered alternatives to make our experience the best.
Thank you for all Elias and Mike!

Fabulous trip, highly recommend
We would like to say a huge thank you to Neema for arranging our last-minute safari. Despite the short notice, everything was organised perfectly, and we had an absolutely amazing experience.
A special thank you to our driver and safari guide, Ali, who was incredibly knowledgeable, professional and, most importantly, made us feel completely safe throughout our safari. With over 16 years of experience, Ali knew exactly where to take us and was able to show us the migration and the Big Five. He was also incredibly patient, waiting while we took lots (and lots!) of photos — he truly has the patience of a saint! 🦁📸
We couldn't have asked for a better guide and would highly recommend Ali to anyone looking for an experienced, knowledgeable and friendly safari guide.
Thank you again, Neema and Ali, for making our safari such a wonderful and unforgettable experience! 🐘🦒❤️
