Exceptional professionalism, Friendly and well organized. Highly recommended
We had a wonderful experience with Axis Africa Tours & Safaris. From the very beginning, Monica handled everything in a professional manner, providing us with all the details and information we needed, which made planning smooth and stress-free.
The highlight of our trip was our guide, Mohammed Mahmoud. He was truly exceptional – friendly, approachable, and incredibly knowledgeable. His extensive experience in the field really showed, and he went above and beyond to ensure we had the best safari experience possible. Thanks to him, we not only enjoyed the beauty of the safari, we saw BIG FIVE and a glimpse of Great migration/ Mara river crossings but also learned so much along the way.
Overall, it was a fantastic and memorable experience, and we highly recommend Axis Africa Tours & Safaris for anyone planning a safari in Kenya.

Toilo Tours were so helping in organising an amazing bespoke safari that was beyond our expectations
From the first contact with Julius planning a bespoke safari and putting together plans for the safari itself we were impressed with the service in providing a value for money dream come true experience. Our driver Khaleed was so informative about the animals and always made sure we got the best views of animals we saw so we took amazing photos. Dell our chef cooked some delicious food. Would recommend Toilo Tours

Good communications
The tour was very well executed by Ntinyoko. From informing us that there was a delay with the pick up to his knowledge of the region, history and social day to day life of South Africans.
His enthusiasm was infectious and his passion for his work and country was from the beginning till the end of the tour fantastic. With him was Zanele whom is trained by him to become a tour guide as well. I’m pretty sure she had the best teacher in him and hope she’ll make him proud walking in his footsteps.
I fully recommend Ntinyoko and Mo Afrika tours to plan your trip thru this beautiful country.
Wishing only but the best for Ntinyoko, Zanele, Mo Africa tours and the population of South Africa !

Absolutely Fabulous.
Our recent safari to Tanzania lived up to its reputation as it was a wonderful adventure filled with amazing wildlife views, cultural insights, and lessons in history. We started with a day at Lake Manyara followed by six days exploring the Serengeti, then returning to Ngorongoro for 2 days before concluding the tour in Tarangire. All these parks are unique and have their characteristic signature experiences. The entire trip was well organized and smooth with activities falling into place along the circuit. Accommodations were perfectly arranged along the route, including a tented camp experience inside the Serengeti. The roads are bumpy and dusty in the parks, and we were fortunate that our vehicle had great suspension and comfortable seats. We saw the Big Five along with a wide variety of other animal species and many different birds, all in their natural environment. We also visited the Olduvai Gorge Museum, known as the cradle of humankind, on our way from the Serengeti to Ngorongoro Crater.
Overall, this was a perfect trip well worth the time and money.

Our guide Benson was awesome, professional knowledgeable and very kind.
I gained so much insight into the local Chaggah tribe's customs and traditions. The hikes were both engaging and enjoyable, offering fresh air and breathtaking views. I had the chance to visit a coffee farm, where the food was delicious and the staff were incredibly knowledgeable about the coffee-making process. I also spent some relaxing time swimming at Chemka Hot Springs. To top it all off, I had the opportunity to witness the stunning peak view of Mount Kilimanjaro. I highly recommend African Galago Safaris.

The Perfect Motorcycle Adventure – Unforgettable from Start to Finish!
I have already taken part in several motorcycle tours with different organizers – all of them were great in their own way. However, the trip with Mr. Goodluck truly stood out. Everything was perfectly organized from start to finish, and the routes were varied, full of curves, and absolutely stunning in terms of scenery.
The choice of accommodations and meals was excellent, and the tour guide impressed with both experience and passion, making sure everyone felt comfortable at all times. What I especially appreciated was the perfect balance between riding together as a group and having enough freedom for individual wishes and spontaneous stops.
The atmosphere within the group was fantastic, and thanks to the relaxed and professional style of the guide, it always felt enjoyable and easy-going. For me, this was the best motorcycle tour so far, and I am already looking forward to my next adventure with Goodluck.

5-Star Review! Our Expert Guide Made This 11-Day Kenya Trip Absolutely Amazing
The highlight of this 11-day Kenya trip—one that exceeded all our expectations—was our incredible guide, John! His eyesight was truly extraordinary: in the vast grasslands, he could spot small animals hidden in the bushes that we couldn’t even catch a glimpse of with our naked eyes. Whether it was a tiny warthog or antelopes in the distant trees, he never missed a single opportunity for us to observe them.
What made it even better was that after spotting each animal, he would proactively take over our animal guidebook, patiently flip to the corresponding page, and explain the species and their habits in detail. For us, who previously knew little about African wildlife, the entire trip felt like an engaging nature class, and we learned so much. He was also incredibly kind—when we encountered other vehicles stuck or lost in the national park, he would always stop to help. This act of kindness added extra warmth to our journey.
Other arrangements by the local operator were also worry-free: the safari vehicle was reliable throughout the trip. The recommended hotels had great locations and were clean and well-maintained. In particular, the buffet at the hotels offered an extensive variety of dishes, catering to different tastes, which made our meals very enjoyable.
The only minor downsides were some small regrets in the itinerary:
1. The Mount Kenya hike had to be canceled because re-entering Sweetwaters required an additional fee; and for the waterfall we planned to visit, we only got a distant view—we didn’t get to enter the park for a closer experience.
2. The lunch and dinner on the second-to-last day of the trip were not provided to us as stated in the itinerary (which says "All meals").
3. No guide was available to accompany and introduce us on Crescent Island in Naivasha. The driver did not follow us onto the island, and the staff on the island said there were no guides left.
4. The promise to have Henry as the guide was not fulfilled at all. The guide was changed without permission on the day of airport pick-up, and no explanation was given.
5. On three separate occasions when we entered a reserve or national park, we were required to pay in advance with credit cards. After that, the guide would return the money to us in cash, but this process still wasted a lot of time.
However, these small regrets didn’t affect our overall satisfaction with the trip at all. After all, the core wildlife experience was wonderful enough, and the guide’s professionalism and thoughtfulness made the entire journey truly shining.
We’ve already recommended this local operator and our guide to friends who plan to visit Kenya. If we ever go to Africa again, we’ll definitely choose them!

Raymond with Jocky Tours (7 Day Masai Mara/Nakuru/Naivasha/Amboseli Tour) was absolutely amazing!
I did the 7 Day Masai Mara, Nakuru, Naivasha, Amboseli Budget Tour with Jocky Tours and Raymond as our guide. This was the first safari I have done, and it was absolutely the most amazing trip of my life. Jocky Tours responded so quickly every time I emailed before the trip and provided detailed responses. Communication was great. Raymond was also amazing with communication, always providing detailed answers to our questions and helping us to get the most out of our experience here in Kenya. The value for our money was unbelievable. As a budget tour, we knew we wouldn’t stay in luxury villas, but the lodging was still very clean, welcoming, and comfortable! We were very pleasantly surprised. The indigenous people in the villages were so kind and welcoming, I definitely recommend taking the time to go into the native villages if given the opportunity.
Raymond was reliable, timely, considerate, - absolutely amazing. I always felt safe with Raymond (especially appreciate this as a woman) and his driving was excellent. Thank you Jocky Tours and a huge thank you to Raymond for making this such a truly special experience.
