Very eager to fulfil all wishes and well organised.
We were very happy with our trip and were glad we booked with Connect African Safaris. They were very helpful and looked to tailor everything to us beforehand, making the programme just the way we wanted it. They even picked us up directly from the airport and then brought us back to the ferry as well and helped us with organisations for tickets! 2 small things that could be improved are: We were already picked up from the airport with the car for the safari (because we landed very late and drove directly to the national park). Unfortunately, the car did not have air conditioning and was not too comfortable - this could perhaps be arranged differently. And it would have been great to have a guide with us who could also explain some of the surroundings, the country etc. Otherwise, I can only say it was TOP - our driver knew his way around Mikumi National Park, we saw a lot of animals and very close to them, and our accommodation was clean and nice.
We can only recommend Connect African Safaris!

Perfect, planned and well organised
The experience was really great right from the time we land in Nairobi airport. Explorers Wild Adventures made sure that we were comfortable, everything goes as planned and if there are any end moment changes which will be communicated to us. I would like to highlight the service of our guide David, who took care of us and our wishes, made sure that we have an wonderful safari experience. Overall very much recommend their service.

excellent safari trip!
went on a 3 day tour to Masai Mara with Sir Charles Sharuq. I was able to extend my tour to include Lake Nakuru and Lake Nirvasa. it was such a great time. he was very informative and helpful. we were able to see every animal we wanted. he also takes great photos. the safari tour was great. we had some minor hiccups, but they were resolved quickly and everyone still had a good time. great value for the price! would recommend to anyone in nairobi wanting to join a safari.

Honest and professional
We had a wonderful experience, starting from booking till the very end. Our Guide and Driver David was truly amazing, friendly and adapted to the situation quite well. I will recommend Explorers Wild Adventures and would visit Africa with them again

Good experience
We went on a 3 day 2 night Safari to Masai Mara.
Our driver Solomon was a very capable driver who was prompt, kept us on schedule and maneuvered to get us close to see all of the animals. We saw the big 5 thanks to his skills. We got stuck in the mud and through hard work he was able to get us out.
The reason we give 4 stars is because we felt we were not provide much information about Masai Mara (historical and present day) neither the towns we drove through. We saw animals but didn't feel like we learned much. Also, we informed Axis that we had two big suitcases as we were concerned if they would fit in the Jeep. They indicated that they should fit in the Jeep. When we arrived they informed us that the suitcases couldn't fit. We had to scramble to repack our things into our hand luggage in the tiny room in their office and then leave our big suitcases there.
Lastly I recommend providing a tip sheet so persons are better prepared. For example masks for the dust, motion sickness needs for the very bumpy roads etc.
We stayed at Enkorok camp which we review separately from Axis which we found to have exceptional service.

One of the best experience
We were really excited to see Masai Mara and decided to opt for this company after reading all the reviews. We were given the best tour guide David. First two days we stayed in Nairobi and explored the city. David was kind enough to give us a lot of information about the city and it’ s culture. Later we started the safari and were mesmerized to see all the big 5 of Masai Mara on the first day itself. We had wonderful conversations with David, who was always full of energy to show us more of Masai Mara and explain about the animals. The stays provided by the company were excellent and David took real good care of us.

Amazing safari experience
We started our journey from Germany and booked package from this operator, we had an amazing experience with safaris and stays also we got David as our guide who was really knowledgeable and friendly guide.
Although all stays organized by the operator was really awesome, I would recommend to upgrade stay in Amboseli to next level because your experience will be really upgraded(food) if you do so :)
I would rate 10/10 to our guide/host David,
and 9/10 to our travel operator(considering Amboseli s afternoon food package and stay).

We had an amazing safari experience, fast replies, detailed descriptions of animals and welcoming
We loved our 10 day safari starting in Kenya to Tanzania with Beast Spoor Safaris. Eddy our guide was amazing, he was so friendly and accommodating, any questions we had about the animals or wildlife he knew all the information. The staff met us on the first day and any queries we had they messaged back in minutes. Crossing the border was super easy and they had a staff member waiting for us. Everything on the intinerary was 100% what we got. I highly recommend this tour and the tour guide Eddy! Our contact person Kelvin was very helpful and prompt in responding to our queries. I would recommend this company to everyone who is planning on going to a safari.

Customer Oriented, prompt communication, great after service
Patricia was very prompt in her communication and answered all my questions patiently. Gave me the confidence to book with her. She made sure all my needs were addressed to and delivered on what she promised. Every day, she called in the evening during the tour to check that everything is all right. There were some delays due to the driver (not her fault), but she offered a free Airport drop from Nairobi to compensate for the delay. In all, a great person whom you can trust and rely on in a foreign land.
