Axis Africa Expedition & Safaris are exceptional and outstanding.
My experience with Axis Africa Expedition & Safaris was beyond my expectations. Every aspect of the journey and accommodation was exceptional and every member of staff contributed to making this lifetime experience more than just pleasant. Our guide Peter Kapino was very professional and knowledgeable. Peter Kapino is a credit to Axis Africa Expedition & Safaris. Peter Kapino ensured that my family was safe at all times and made sure that we comfortable and never missed any opportunity to see the animals. Peter Kapino managed to locate all the big five animals and even those that are often rare to see. If you manage or are lucky to have Peter Kapino as your guide, you are guaranteed to have an exceptional and memorable experience. I would have absolutely no hesitation in the recommending Axis Africa Expedition & Safaris to anyone looking for the ultimate Safari experience.

An Exceptional Gorilla Safari with an Outstanding Guide!
We had an outstanding three-day gorilla safari with Next Gen Safaris, departing from Kigali. Our guide, Renatus, was exceptional. His local knowledge, warmth and genuine care for his guests made all the difference. We felt completely safe and well looked after throughout. Seeing the gorillas was an unforgettable experience, made even better by Renatus. Highly recommend both him and Next Gen Safaris!

Caring , reliable with a good knowledge for his age
This company is reliable and caring and the the money was well spent for the unique experience with them. We can recommend to discover the Tanganyika lake and the jungle in Gombe park with them which is the safe home for the chimpanzees, other monkeys and many other species.

An Excellent Safari Experience with Axis Africa Safari
We had an absolutely fantastic experience with Axis Africa Safaris, and we couldn’t recommend them highly enough! A huge part of what made our safari so special was our guide, Peter Kapino, who was outstanding from start to finish.
From our initial communications through to the end of the tour, everything was smooth, professional, and reliable. Peter Kapino was always friendly, responsive, and helpful, making us feel confident that we were in good hands. He was incredibly patient with all our questions, took the time to explain things clearly, and was flexible and accommodating to our needs throughout the experience. His knowledge, professionalism, and genuinely friendly personality made the whole trip even more enjoyable.
The safari itself was truly impressive. We were fortunate enough to see every animal we hoped to see, which was a remarkable experience. Peter Kapino’s sharp eye, excellent knowledge of the wildlife, and ability to spot animals made a huge difference. He also had a great relationship with other safari drivers, who communicated with one another over the radio and worked together to help locate animals. This teamwork, combined with Peter’s own expertise, meant we had some incredible wildlife sightings and got the very most out of our safari.
The service throughout was excellent, and the reliability gave us real peace of mind. Everything was handled efficiently, and we always felt well looked after. The value for money was good, especially considering the quality of the guiding, the service we received, and how memorable the overall experience was.
We would wholeheartedly recommend Axis Africa Safaris to anyone considering a safari. If you are lucky enough to have Peter Kapino as your guide, you can expect someone who is knowledgeable, dependable, patient, friendly, and genuinely committed to making your experience as good as possible.
Thank you to Peter and Axis Africa Safaris for such a wonderful and unforgettable safari. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would happily recommend them to anyone looking for an outstanding safari adventure!

The best ever safari organisation
Not the first but definitely the best safari in my life.
I would like to thank Pipir Safari for an amazing experience. Everything was organised perfectly starting from the booking till the transfer back to the hotel on Zanzibar.
Julia and Jackson are people who can make the dream come true and you feel like you are not just a guest but a part of their family or real expedition.
The driver was also very talented and professional - we feel safe.
I visited 3 days safari - Tarangire, Ngorogoro and Serval Wild Life.
Amazing experience! Lots of information about every animal and bird, hospitality and extreme love to the things the company does.
I recommend everybody to go safari with Pipit and that’s going to be the best choice in the life!

The safari tour far exceeded all my expectations.
It was action-packed, fascinating, and truly unforgettable. We saw so many animals, birds, and breathtaking places that it’s hard to believe a whole week has already passed. A special thank you to our guide, Peter Kapino — he is a true master of his craft! Everything was organized well.

Excellent choice
Note: This review focuses on the company’s trip organization and planning, rather than the wildlife viewing itself.
> We spent a year planning this trip, and communication with our organizer was consistently responsive and helpful throughout the process. However, the execution during the trip creation and planning phase had notable gaps:
> * Software & Itinerary Discrepancies: The company relies on generic, out-of-the-box itinerary software that wasn't properly adapted to reflect our customized private tour. Important vehicle details were omitted—for instance, we were placed in a minivan instead of a 4x4 safari jeep for the first two days. This made game viewing in Arusha National Park considerably more difficult. Later, we learned about an emergency rescue directly from our driver-guide, which necessitated the change. We would have been much more understanding if that had been communicated upfront.
> * Another oversight was that we had asked for a bike tour on day two, and it was on the itinerary. There was no bike tour, and no comment from the operator about it.
> Overall: Despite these organization and communication misses, most of what was promised on the itinerary was ultimately delivered. The trip overall was an amazing experience, due to the two driver-guides Emmanuel and Elisha being a lot of fun, very authentic, and highly knowledgeable. Thank you E. & E. for your hard work!
