Perfect Honeymoon Safari: Full Big Five & Exceptional Guide Collin from Axis Africa
My wife and I enjoyed an incredible 6-day honeymoon safari across Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru and Amboseli with Axis Africa and the whole journey was incredibly smooth and well-organized from start to finish. Pre-trip communication was prompt and clear, and the team maintained reliable updates throughout our travel, eliminating all logistical worries for us as first-time Africa visitors.
Tabitha warmly greeted us with delicate romantic honeymoon surprises upon our arrival, making our special trip feel personalized and heartfelt immediately. Our dedicated driver and guide Collin Sempele is highly professional, experienced and deeply respectful of wildlife ethics. On our first game drive in Masai Mara, he located the entire Big Five within only 2.5 hours. He guided us to safe, up-close sightings of herds of rhinos at Lake Nakuru, plus more than 20 unique bird species and large elephant populations during our stay in Amboseli National Park, alongside cheetahs and countless rare wildlife across the whole itinerary. He also offered patient photography guidance, helping us capture countless breathtaking photos we will cherish permanently.

Amazing Kenya Safari for Our Honeymoon
We’ve just finished our 6‑day, 5‑night Kenya safari covering Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru and Amboseli.
Tabitha replied to emails very quickly. As it was our honeymoon, she arranged fresh flowers and coordinated with hotels for honeymoon decorations.
Our guide Collin Sempele, with more than 25 years of experience, knows animal habits and local weather very well. We saw the African Big Five and roughly 20‑30 species of animals. He gave us great tips for wildlife sightings and photography, and we got so many amazing shots.
We are very happy with this Kenya trip overall.

Absolutely amazing experience in Tanzania with Roko
We just spent one month touring South and East Africa and spent a lot of time researching this adventure beforehand. We prefer dealing with small and locally owned companies when possible. We are very fortunate to have chosen Roko Safaris for our Tanzania leg of the trip. First of all, trip planning and communication with both Roko and Miranda was very easy . Our many questions and emails were handled promptly and courteously.This trip was carefully designed around our wishes. Secondly, Roko is a local who grew up in the Masaai community. His insights into local customs and culture added a very special and unique aspect to a safari that is hard, if not impossible, to replicate. This was especially important to us as we were traveling with our 14 year old grandson and we wanted him to have a real and genuine cultural experience. This was far more than just a game viewing safari only and that was a desired outcome for us.
We could not be any more pleased with our time with Roko Safaris. The last thing to mention is that Roko's ability to spot game while on a game drive is remarkeable. We were able to watch and observe animals that other safari vehicles drove past without noticing. I liked the fact that he was not using the radio to go to the game that others had found. It made for a more genuine and relaxed safari experience. I strongly recommend Roko Safaris if you considering a visit to Tanzania. This safari far exceeded our expectations!

An unforgettable first safari with perfect organization
Our first safari exceeded all our expectations – and Tecomate Tours & Safaris played a major role in that.
Even during the planning stages, we realized that this wasn't just a standard, off-the-shelf program. Our wishes were addressed individually, and communication was always prompt, friendly, and reliable, giving us a great feeling even before the trip began.
Special praise goes to our guide, Gabriel. With his vast knowledge of Tanzania's wildlife, nature, and culture, he made every game drive a unique experience. He explained complex topics clearly and engagingly and had an impressive instinct for where animals were. Thanks to his expertise, we were able to observe an incredible number of animals and experience unforgettable moments.
We particularly appreciated his calm and friendly manner. He answered every question with patience and enthusiasm and always included our children. It was clear how much he cared about his work and how much he wanted to give his guests an exceptional safari experience.
Everything was also superbly organized – from the transfers and lodges to the entire itinerary. This allowed us to completely relax and enjoy the trip.
It was our first safari, and it couldn't have been better. We wholeheartedly recommend Tecomate Tours & Safaris and would like to thank Gabriel and the entire team for these unforgettable days. We would travel with Tecomate again in a heartbeat.

We had the best safari experience.
From the midnight airport pickup, through the safari, to the airport drop off, the Suricata staff were really helpful and couldn't have been any more friendly. Our guide Gerald was amazing. He took the time to find out what we wanted to see, and delivered well beyond our expectations. I thoroughly recommend Suricata to anyone looking for a great Tanzania experience.

Amazing 1 Day Tsavo East Safari
We selected Steve and Richard Safaris having looked at a few before booking and I can honestly say it was the best decision. Steve was very responsive over WhatsApp and took the time to understand what we wanted. We settled on a LandCruiser vehicle which was perfect. We met up with Steve the day we arrived in Kenya to go over the details and he had everything spot on.
On the day he was already waiting at our hotel reception when we came down at 4.30am for the 2hr 30min drive to Tsavo East. We were very lucky that we had Steve and a driver on this trip, and plenty of bottled water was provided for the day.
We arrived at Tsavo just before 7am and embarked on what must rank as one of the best days ever. Steve was very knowledgeable about the park and the animals we saw which included Elephants, Giraffes, Zebras, Buffalo, Impalas, Ostriches and even a Monitor Lizard. It was an amazing day made all the more special when, at the campsite we stopped at for a picnic lunch (which had Baboons everywhere), an Elephant and it's baby walked right through the middle. Unbelievable!
We got back to the hotel around 6.30pm and I can't praise the effort, patience and assistance that Steve provided throughout the whole day and also in the lead up to it. If you book with them you will not regret it.

We would like to highly recommend Axis Africa Safaris. The service was seamless from start to finish. Our guide James Gichina was outstanding; he carefully positioned the vehicle to get us fantastic close viewing angles, and we were fortunate enough to spot all of the Big Five on our safari. Everything was perfectly arranged, and we had an unforgettable experience.

Amazing 3-day safari with excellent organization from start to finish. Communication with Akai was outstanding, and the whole team was friendly, attentive, and always ready to help.
