Great option for Kenya Safari
From beginning to end, Dan at Denhum Holidays was a very integral part of the process in ensuring that my questions were answered. Having access to him via whatsapp was key. He gave assurances that everything would go accordingly, and even when it didn’t seem or feel like things would work out, they did. Dan understood that I was planning a surprise and did everything possible to help me execute.
Musa (our driver/guide) was spot on. Right from picking us up at the airport he was attentive and a wealth of knowledge throughout. He was engaging, but also recognized the times that we were tired and gave us time to rest. It seemed like he knew everyone wherever we went and was always able to point us in the right direction. He was truly a great resource to have on hand. One of my favourite interactions on our trip was when he called ahead to set up a traditional Kenyan meal that we ate together, sans cutlery in true Kenyan fashion. Musa was the man.
I had high expectations for planning a trip that was so far from home, and after considering other safari companies I’m ultimately very glad that I decided to go with Denhum. I would recommend that anyone interested in doing a safari to get in touch with this team and allow them to help you plan it all out. The value was unparalleled; I never once felt like we were getting a budget version of a safari. Thanks again to Dan/Musa and the rest of the Denhum team.

Native perspective without worries during adventures
We had a wonderful time during a full week of safari across different landscapes from the parks in Tanzania-Tarangire, Serengeti, Ngorongoro, wrapping up with a couple of days in Zanzibar. Paul, Ezekiel and the crew were awesome in organizing the whole trip and giving as much of a native perspective such a trip allows. Unforgettable!

Absolute highlight of whole trip, best out of our 3 safaries.
To start , I didnt really believe safaribooking.com as i think there are a lot of scammers when i compared with reviews on TripAdvisor. Therefore I spend significant time researching before i chose Axis Africa and I'm so happy I did.
In short it was a great experience with professional driver , best safari we have done so far . Absolutely recommend. If you are like me looking for best experience for best price don't look any further .
Driver: Robert was an amazing professional and very knowledgeable driver. He took us on less touristic routes where we could get much closer to animal. Great work !
Car : most of the cars we saw were very similar if not the same.
Accommodation : we went for budget safari , just heads up ..its really budget so be prepare . If you need more luxury stay i believe they can arrange for you. (I'm not evaluating this as it is not tour operator responsibility)
Safari : Just amazing, from Tsavo East and Serengeti and Ngorongoro , the one we did with Robert (Maasai Mara) was an absolute top with a lot of animal sighting and close encounters.
I wish Axis Africa a lot of happy customers they absolutely deserve it. Choose this you wont be sorry ;)

Amazing experience with the best and reliable profesionals
It was the best choice we’ve ever had. At the beginning, before we contract the safari, Bartho was very flexible and arranged us a very suitable tour. He gave us recommendations and after the safari I can say that he was right in every piece of advice he gave us. During the safari, our guide was the best one, Chedi was a great professional, he really knows about the wild animals and could see more animals that we had ever imagined. Additionally, he made the safari very enjoyable, having conversations and funny moments with all of us. And the food was incredible, Dulla cooked us such a nice dishes…in the middle of nowhere we were the ones who ate better, for sure! We would contract Serengeti Wakanda again if we did another safari in Tanzania.

Everything was perfect
So we've never booked a big trip like this, but Joseph and Mufasa Tours made it so easy. We really appreciated Joesph meeting us at our hotel the night before to walk us through everything and answer our questions. Our tour guide Abraham was so kind and knowledgeable. He was able to answer all of our questions about the animals, the area, history and more. We were able to see the big five and just about every animal you would think to see in Kenya!

Simply FANTASTIC!
Ntanda Ventures is one of the most fantastic travel agencies! We booked a tour to Zambia (Kafue National park, Victoria falls and South Luangwa national park) through them.
Kerry and Christina helped us with everything from accommodation, special food orders, transfers between camps, flight tickets, PCR-test etc.!
I have travelled to South Africa, Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda and Indien. However, this is definitely the best travel agency I've ever booked from.
I honestly feel like Kerry and Christina are my friends that I've never met in real life.
Thank you so much for your professional and loving help!

Helpful and reliable service
We are a mother-daughter duo from Turkey, and our three-days experience with Africa Marvel Tours was flawless from beginning to end. Our most urgent concern was safety and we felt very safe and comfortable throughout the journey. Communication with Perminus was smooth from the beginning; he responses quickly, he revised the program multiple times to meet our needs and wishes. He was punctual and attentive. Our driver Daniel, on the other hand, has been very helpful throughout the tour. He was polite, decent and respectful; he was not much chatty which was to our advantage while observing the surroundings in silent and peace. However he always stopped for various animals to show us, also stopped and waited when we wanted to shoot photos every time. He was very helpful with everything. For the tour, he sticked to the program we received, there was no missing routes or unaware changes in the plan. The Ngulia Lodge was clean and the food was good enough, they also had a leopard show. The tented camp Zebra Plains Amboseli was excellent, especially with the view and the food&service. Only down point of our experience was that the car was a bit old, though I doubt that the bumpy roads would be easier on the body with a newer car. Our whole experience was excellent value for the money we payed. -Totally would recommend to friends and family.

Thiefs and liars
Going on safari was a lifetime dream of mine. When my husband finally agreed to embark on this adventure I could not be happier. We had used African Adventure specialists and were excited that we were allowing an experienced company create our itinerary. My husband specified which lodge he wanted to stay in as well as his expectations and we thought the rest would be taken care of.
During our trip we started questioning the total cost of our trip because it was off season as well as the prices seemed outrageous compared to people we were talking to who had similar trips planned as us.
We started investigating and speaking to hotel managers and lodge owners and when they saw our furry they all printed out the exact invoices as well as the transfer amounts made by African adventure specialists.
After receiving all the invoices and transfer statements we realized that we had truly been taken advantage off and we were way too trusting.
African adventure specialists overcharged us $9,654.
On top of that, after we had confronted them, instead of making it right they proceeded with fake promises and then completely ignoring us.
The last day of my trip was spent waiting at the lobby of the hotel for “proof” from African adventure specialists and after reassuring the hotel they were on the way nobody showed up.
It’s been two weeks of running after someone to get some answers and there is no responses.
I would never recommend this company to anyone if you don’t want to be robbed..
I’m sad that my dream trip had to end this way.
