Fantastic Trip
We booked this trip as a 30th Birthday present for my daughter. Loved every minute especially roaming the Massai Mara on the lookout for the ‘Big Five’ animals. Our tour guide George was brilliant, very knowledgeable and patient with excellent communication skills. The trip to the Massai village gave us a chance to embrace and enjoy the local culture.

Serengeti African Tours as it bests.
Guide: excellent. Food: outstanding. Tour organization: very good. Wildlife experience: unforgettable.
Our safari was an unforgettable experience from start to finish. It began with a perfectly organized airport pickup and a comfortable transfer to the hotel, which set the tone for the days ahead.
The next day, we continued to Tarangire, where we enjoyed a wonderful first taste of Tanzania’s wildlife and landscapes. The following two days in the Serengeti were truly extraordinary. We experienced the endless plains, filled with thousands of wildebeest and zebras and were completely captivated by the beauty of the scenery and the abundance of animals. One of the absolute highlights was seeing baby cheetahs eating together with their mother — a very special and memorable moment.
We were also fortunate enough to spot two leopards in the Serengeti, which speaks highly of our guide Kelvin’s incredible experience. In Ngorongoro, we were able to see the last of the Big Five: the black rhino, completing an amazing safari wildlife experience.
On the fourth day, when I was feeling unwell, our guide handled the situation with great responsibility and care. He took me to the doctor and the pharmacy and made sure I was looked after properly, which I deeply appreciated.
Overall, the entire trip was fantastic, and I would especially like to thank our guide Kelvin and our chef cook Pascal for making this safari so special. I can highly recommend this experience.
I stayed in both the lodge and a tent. Both have their own unique charm and should be taken into consideration when booking.

The best guide to go on tour with!
It was a great time with our guide Rodger. He always took care of us and made sure we have a great time. He took us to Masai Mara, lake Nakuru and Amboseli for 6 days full of wild animals. Everyday, we were picked up by him with a clean jeep and fresh water, ready for game drive. He always secured that we get the best pictures of all the animals and had a great knowledge of the parks and the animals, there was no question he couldn’t answer.
The accommodations we stayed were clean and had tasty meals, we never had any chance to get hungry.
Overall I can definitely recommend to go on tour with Rodger for the best Safari experience.
Hakuna Matata!

A professional safari team with excellent guides who create truly unforgettable wildlife encounte
It was an amazing safari experience. I saw so many animals, and my tour guide, Edward, took us to see lions, leopards, elephants, and cheetahs hunting, as well as rhinos resting. We were lucky enough to see the Big Five. It was truly one of the best experiences ever, and the lodge welcomed us warmly. The food at the accommodation was also very delicious.
Our five-day trip was absolutely incredible and unforgettable. One of the highlights for me was the visit to Serengeti National Park — it is truly vast and breathtaking.
There are still many routes we would love to explore, and we will definitely be back next time.

Incredible and unforgettable experience with the best guide Rodger
If you’re planning to book a safari with Axis Safari, do yourself a favor and ask for Rodger as your guide – he truly made this trip something we will remember for the rest of our lives.
We did the 6-day safari through Masai Mara, Amboseli, and Lake Nakuru, and honestly, it exceeded every expectation we had. From the very first day until the very last, everything felt incredibly well organized, exciting, and special – and a huge part of that was because of Rodger.
He went above and beyond every single day to make sure we saw as many animals as possible, and thanks to his dedication and incredible spotting skills, we managed to find all of the Big Five in an amazingly short amount of time something we definitely won’t forget!
What made the trip even more special was Rodger himself. He was incredibly friendly, always in a great mood, and shared so much knowledge about the animals, nature, and the parks. You could really feel his experience and passion. Searching for animals with him was not only exciting but also so much fun – there were always interesting stories, great explanations, and laughs along the way.
The camps were also really great. We especially loved the Manjaro Camp in Amboseli – beautiful view to the Kilimanjaro, great facilities, and everyone there was extremely welcoming and friendly and the food was amazing. It made the whole experience even more enjoyable.
We also really appreciated Rodger during a more challenging situation: there were demonstrations in Kenia because of the increased fuel prices and traffic disruptions, but he stayed calm the entire time, kept us informed, and did everything he could to make sure we got through safely and comfortably. We always felt well taken care.
Overall, we had an absolutely wonderful time and would recommend this safari to everyone. Huge thanks to Rodger for making this trip so memorable – we’ll never forget it and enclosed him already in our hearts.
Sante Sana Rodger!

Great personality, hard working for us, always caring.
We had a great time with our guide Rodger. He took us to Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru and Amboseli for 6 days of game drives and lots of wild animals. He always wanted our best and cared for our safety. He had a big knowledge of the parks and all the animals, there was no question he couldn’t answer. He managed our group very well and kept calm even in difficult situations. The accommodations we stayed were all in good condition and had tasty food! Also the jeep we went with was in a good condition, always cleaned up again in the morning and filled up with fresh water.
I would highly recommend you to go on tour with Rodger for a great experience of the African wild life.

The Massai Mara and Lake Nakuru was amazing! Everything was very easy, they arranged pick up in the hotel and took us to our Guide, Richard who was very nice, funny, friendly, he was always on time and he knew every single animal. He gave us a lot of time with each animal and you can really tell he loves what he does. The accomodation and food everything was good. We did the ballon safari and we highly recommend it. Loved every single moment in this safari! Axis safari was flexible to our last minute changes with no problem. Book with Axis and ask for RICHARD!

Sensational
They pick you up at your hotel and drive you to the border. There you get in a jeep and the 3-hour safari begins; we saw many animals. Afterward, they take you for lunch, and then you go on a 2-hour boat safari. It was a wonderful experience, and the staff was very friendly throughout.

Nice and efficient!
Thomas was a great driver, he was on time and let us know that the road would be bumpy, while he effectively avoided numerous potholes. The 2 stops from the airport to Hoespruit were short, nice, and clean - enough for a restroom break, to grab a snack, and admire any views.

Will definately promote them by word of mouth
Maybe I might be prejudice because it was on my bucket list as well as my birthday, but words cannot describe the excellence of this tour group and all involved. From day of enquiry to assisting with numerous questions about this or that, they were quick to respond. This was just from the online office. Our tour guide ( her first) was done with friendly and sufficient info on daily activities. Well organized. And the accommodations par excellence including meals. Catered for everyone taste i think. The rest - viewing of animals and information receiving from the local contracted tour guides. Well you will have to go and experience it yourself. Worth every sent spent. Heard from regulars visiting Kruger National that one cannot compare but Serengeti offers more abundance of wild and birds.
