Amazing
Our safari to Masai Mara with Mr. Ali from Axis Africa Safari was absolutely amazing! He is a fantastic driver and guide—very experienced, respectful, and always made us feel safe and relaxed throughout the trip.
Mr. Ali has a great eye for spotting wildlife and made sure we didn’t miss any of the Big Five. He was also very informative, sharing fascinating insights about the animals and the Masai culture, which made the journey even more enriching.
What we appreciated most was his kindness, patience, and sense of humour—it truly felt like we were travelling with a friend. Everything was well-organized and smooth from the start.
We couldn’t have asked for a better driver and guide. Thank you, Mr. Ali, for giving us unforgettable memories in Masai Mara!

Serengeti Smile exceeded all expectations
Wow!!! What can I say about Serengeti Smile?!! Initial communication with Jeremiah from the office was very good. He was able to answer our many, many questions and sorted our whole trip for us. From the moment our guide, Libe collected us from our hotel in Arusha, the service was excellent! He gave us both a very friendly welcome and took time to go through the itinerary for the 5 days safari to come. The safari experience blew us away. I know not everyone can experience every animal the Serengeti, the Ngorongoro crater and the Tarangire national park has to offer but we saw more than we ever expected, thanks to Libe's expert knowledge, keen eyes and a little luck too. Elephants, lions, giraffes, zebra, cheetah, leopard, wildebeast, buffalo, hippos...to name just a few! Thanks again to Libe's knowledge and patience we were able to witness The Great Migration...twice! This sight alone was worth the trip!
Thank you Serengeti Smile and thank you to Libe, for giving us memories that will last a lifetime.

The best tour operator in Kenya!
We are so glad to experience our Safari with Acus Africa. The company has been very helpful with our itinerary and bookings although there are some hiccups before the trip. We also want to shout out to Ali our tour guide for the whole trip to Masai Mara. We are so grateful!

Great safari, brilliant tour company fab guide!
We had a superb holiday of a lifetime with great care and patience through the booking process (I'm quite particular!) and a superb experience right from arrival at the airport. Our guide Zebbie cared for our every need and stayed with us throughout, his spotting skills were excellent and we saw things other tours were driving past!
This was a magical 6 day safari followed by 6 nights in Zanzibar organised and executed to perfection - thank you all!

Our tour was outstanding, hassle free and smooth experience - Highly recommend
We just returned from an 8-day, 7-night safari in Kenya (2 adults and our 5-year-old), and it was truly one of the best experiences of our lives. Kenya is everything you imagine—breathtaking scenery, abundant wildlife, and warm, welcoming people
From the start, Stephen, our trip coordinator, was incredible. His response time was unbelievably fast, never more than an hour, and he helped us fully customize our itinerary. We could choose everything from accommodations to the type of vehicle (highly recommend a Jeep over a van for comfort on the bumpy roads), and even how many days to spend in Nairobi before heading out.
Upon arrival, Stephen personally picked us up from the airport and ensured we were settled in our Nairobi hotel before the adventure began. We then got Felix (our guides WhatsApp), we arranged pickup timing and details for the next day. Everything was smooth.
So Felix was our guide, which and in my opinion is the most important part of any safari. Felix is a local from the Masai Mara, born and raised in one of the villages, and his knowledge of the landscape, wildlife, and culture was unmatched. He was with us from start to finish, always ensuring we were comfortable and well taken care of, while also sharing fascinating facts about the animals and environment. As a talented photographer himself, he positioned us perfectly for some of the most amazing photos we’ve ever taken.
We did do some optional extras (like a boat ride and Masai village visit), but if we didnt want to, there was never any pressure to do them - it was always completely up to us. Traveling with a 5-year-old, we also appreciated how flexible Felix was with stops for shopping or toilet breaks along the way. His vehicle was spacious, clean, comfortable, had a fridge for drinks, and even international plugs to keep our phones charged during long drives.
A few tips for future travelers:
Things get dusty, and the rides can be bumpy—Jeep is absolutely worth it.
June weather was great but keep layers handy—it’s hot during the day and chilly at night.
Wear whatever you’re comfortable in; you don’t have to stick to only neutral colors.
There is a tipping culture in Kenya for guides and accomodation staff.
