Knowledgeable
We had the absolute best time on our safari thanks to Peter Kapino! From start to finish, he was amazing — super passionate, responsible, and always respectful toward us and the wildlife. Peter made every drive fun and was incredibly knowledgeable about everything — seriously, he had an answer for every single question we asked. Most importantly, he always made sure we felt safe and comfortable.
Because of Peter, we got to experience everything we had dreamed of and even more. If we ever come back, there’s no question — we’re only going with the legend himself, Peter Kapino. Thank you for an unforgettable adventure!

We felt like John lied to us, the rest are good
Our trip in Kenya at 8 days. First three days we went to Amboseli, the guide is Reuben. He was really great, actively looking for animals and finding locations to take photos for us. Then we went to Masai Mara , the guide change to John and our nightmare started.
John lied to us He wanna deceived us for additional $400 Maasai Mara park fee. We called Dume’s boss-Henry to check there was no extra fee, then John started felt angry and maliciously shortening the Safari time and treat us very bad like verbal threats and provocations and rejected any service like pulling up the Safari car roof, taking our luggages and so on.
John never actively searches for animals during safaris (he doesn't even have his own binoculars). He told us to searched the animals by ourselves. He simply drives around, and only finds animals by following the group of parked safari vehicles.
On our way back to Nairobi from Naivasha, John, without prior notice, took a stranger (John claimed to be his wife) into our safari vehicles and brought her back to Nairobi.
We talked to Henry twice to report John's malicious actions. Henry repeatedly insisting that John was "his friend and a good person" and simply saying he would discuss the matter with John. So we simply requested that John behave in a normal so that we could complete the rest of our trip smoothly. But still disappointed us, he still not change.
After the trips, Henry finally called us and we repeatly told him about John's bad behavior from the first day. He finally apologized to us and treated us a lunch to make amends.
When we got back home, Henry called me again, saying that Dume have two John. And he already fired John. So be careful, maybe he will go to another safari company. （The photo is John）
Except for John, Reuben and Naivasha Hill‘s gate bicycle guide Sammy (He had his own planned path which is very beautiful and he took really good care of us) are great! All stars were given to them but John minus all the stars.

From Accident to Adventure with Dicklack
We had a rollover accident with our car in Serengeti, and that’s when we met Dicklack on the road. He already had two clients in his vehicle, but kindly offered to take us with him so we could continue our journey and get safely out of the park.
He turned a stressful situation into one of the most memorable days of our trip. Dicklack was incredibly friendly, funny, and professional. He kept great communication with the rangers and made every effort to help us spot the animals we wanted to see — including a rhino and many others.
Not only did he rescue us from an emergency situation, but he also gave us a fun, safe, and unforgettable experience in Ngorongoro. He even drove us all the way to our hotel afterwards. We are truly grateful for his kindness and would highly recommend him to anyone visiting Tanzania!

Peter was the best and i would recommend him to all.
Our journey through Kenya and the Masai Mara became truly unforgettable because of one person — Mr. Peter Kapino, our exceptional guide and driver. From the moment we met him, Peter’s warm smile, professionalism, and deep understanding of the land set the tone for an incredible adventure. He was not just a driver; he was a storyteller, historian, wildlife expert, and a friend rolled into one.
Peter’s knowledge of Kenya’s landscapes, wildlife, and culture was nothing short of remarkable. Every location we visited came alive with his insights — from the rolling savannahs of the Masai Mara to the breathtaking escarpments of the Great Rift Valley. He could identify animals from miles away, name every bird in sight, and explain the fascinating balance of the ecosystem in simple, engaging ways. His passion for conservation and respect for nature were truly inspiring and taught us to see the wilderness not just as a tourist attraction but as a living, breathing world worth protecting.
One of Peter’s greatest strengths was his driving expertise and calmness in all conditions. Whether maneuvering through muddy tracks after rain or navigating narrow paths teeming with wildlife, he made us feel completely safe. He always ensured we got the perfect vantage point for photography — patiently positioning the vehicle so everyone had a clear view, without disturbing the animals. His professionalism and respect for park rules reflected his integrity and deep commitment to responsible tourism.
What stood out most was Peter’s warm personality and genuine care for his guests. He was always punctual, organized, and attentive to every detail — from ensuring we had water and snacks, to checking that everyone was comfortable before each drive. His sense of humor kept our long journeys lively, and his patience made every day stress-free. Even after hours of driving, he never seemed tired or rushed; instead, he treated each day as a new opportunity to share Kenya’s beauty with us.
During our time together, Peter became more than a guide — he became part of our travel family. He shared stories about Kenyan life, culture, and traditions, giving us a true sense of connection with the country. He even taught us a few Swahili phrases, making our experience both educational and fun!
In short, Peter Kapino is the perfect ambassador for Kenya — knowledgeable, kind, professional, and passionate about his work. Thanks to him, we didn’t just see Kenya; we experienced it in its truest sense. We wholeheartedly recommend Peter to anyone planning a safari or adventure in Kenya. If you want your trip to be safe, educational, and filled with lifelong memories, ask for Peter Kapino — you’ll be in the best hands possible.

Amazing Safari with Go Safari Holidays
Since we had known Mr. Isaya for over five years, we chose to book safari with him after he introduced us to his business during the summer. When we arrived at Kilimanjaro Airport, our guide was carrying a signboard with our family name on it. After a delectable breakfast, our safari began at 8 am. Our guide, Mr. Juma, was amazing; he answered all of our questions, could identify everything, and taught us a lot about Tanzanian nature and life. His eagle eyes allowed him to see animals in the distance, something we couldn't do without binoculars.
The lodging they reserved was quite cozy, neat and tidy and had yummy meals.
We returned home with priceless memories from our seven-day trip.
Africa taught me to be grateful for everything in my life
Thank You Go Safari Holidays, Thank you Mr Juma.

Amazing tour at a great price
Highly recommended! This company was responsive from the start and provided the most transparent pricing of the 10 operators we quoted—hands-down the best value.
A huge thank you to our guide, Tony! His sharp eyes and expertise meant we saw the Big Five, a serval cat, and even lions mating—what a bonus! Tony is also very knowledgeable and hilarious, making our safari both informative and incredibly fun.

Very attentive to our needs and organized.
I was referred to Oakland Safaris via a friend and was not disappointed - from the start the team around Felista is really responsive and serious about their services. I asked for a personalized safari to Amboseli and Chyulu Hills NP and they tailored it quickly and asked for any preferences (hiking, game drive, camping, …).
Our guide, Moses, is a very very kind soul who has been working as a tour guide for a long time and you can really tell by the way he is organised and always ahead of time.
In our experience, he will make sure to explain the schedule ahead of time and he also leaves time for suggestions or extra desires. Also he is very punctual , which seems obvious for this job but isn’t always guaranteed unfortunately.
Of course the National Parks are very pretty and offer a variety of game to be spotted.
All in all, it was a very pleasing experience and the agency is very professional and personalized to your needs.

Well organised tour and great safari experience
We chose to do a tour with Axis after researching and making enquiries to a number of safari companies. From the start, Philip was quick to respond to all our queries, and provided us with clear and detailed information. The tour was very well organised, and everything ran smoothly.
We did the 6-day group tour to Masai Mara, Navaisha, Nakuru, and Amboseli. Peter was our safari guide, and he was brilliant - he knows the parks thoroughly and is a great jeep driver. We saw a huge range of animals, including lions, leopards, cheetahs, and rhinos (basically all of the 'big 5'), as well as lots of different bird species. Peter is hugely knowledgeable about all the wildlife, and enthusiastic to share his knowledge and answer questions. I got a bit of food poisoning halfway through the trip, and Peter was attentive and accommodating, making extra stops and taking us to a pharmacy, which was a real help.
All in all, we would highly recommend Axis. We found them really helpful when we were arranging the safari, and we are really grateful to Peter who gave us a fantastic safari experience.
