A dream safari come true
An unforgettable Kenya safari experience with Axis Safaris!
A big thank you to Peter for helping me select the perfect package and patiently answering all my questions before the trip. Special appreciation to Kelvin, who guided us for 5 days through Masai Mara, Nakuru, and Naivasha, helping us spot all of the Big Five. Thanks also to Mohammed, who made our Amboseli visit memorable with incredible elephant sightings and stunning views of Mount Kilimanjaro.
This was truly one of my dream trips, and the team made it even more special. Highly professional, knowledgeable, and customer-focused. I highly recommend Axis Safaris to anyone planning a safari in Kenya.

Beautiful wildlife, lovely accommodation and a fabulous guide.
As a solo traveller, Samson’s Safaris was a great choice for me. They were well organised, arranged fantastic accommodation, solved any problems that arose and provided me with a really terrific guide, Sam, who was not only an extremely good wildlife spotter, but a very capable 4WD driver and really good fun as a travel companion. The company helped me with ongoing travel arrangements and couldn’t have been more accommodating.

A great adventure with Aanika Karibu Safaris
A group of six friends of us went on a six-day trip visiting various nature parks. The trip was excellently organized—thanks to Roberts. The accommodations were superbly chosen, offering excellent quality that allowed us to experience the authentic atmosphere of the savanna while ensuring great comfort. Stevie was an enthusiastic guide who went above and beyond to ensure we had a fantastic safari adventure. Thank you; we recommend Aanika Karibu Safaris to others.

Fantastic
We can't say enough good things about our experience with Anya and Pembury Tours! Anya knocked it out of the park with the plans for our honeymoon to Cape Town, safari and Victoria Falls. Every hotel was fantastic, the tours were beautiful, all of the drivers were on time, if not early, and every detail was executed flawlessly. We had a fantastic trip and have passed Anya's info off to multiple friends and family already to book their own trips in the future. We will for sure reach out again for any future trips. Thank you Anya!

Amazing!
An incredible way to experience the vibrant energy of Addis Ababa after dark!
The evening kicked off with a stop at Meskel Square, which has such a lively, illuminated atmosphere at night, followed by a scenic walk taking in the sights and pulse of the city.
The tour guide, Tamrat, was absolutely fantastic. He was super engaging and shared tons of insightful information about Ethiopia’s rich history, traditions, and modern culture, answering every question with passion and depth.
The highlight was finishing the night at Yod Abyssinia for dinner. The traditional food was outstanding, and the live cultural dance and music performances were breathtaking and energetic—such a vibrant showcase of the diverse cultural traditions from across the country.
Overall, an amazing tour from start to finish. I highly recommend it to anyone visiting Addis Ababa who wants an unforgettable, culturally rich night out!

Great company, all interactions with Nafika were timely and professional.
My husband and I, both 58, selected the 8 day Lemosho route with Nafika after reading so many positive reviews. Elias was great to deal with, even giving us a full refund when a knee injury forced a cancellation.
We then rebooked, 2 yrs later, with a stronger knee.
We were collected from the airport, then Meshack, our lead guide, checked our gear and filled any gaps.
Once you start out you quickly realise that ALL the companies use local guides and porters.
We had 18 crew, inc 3 guides for our group of 5.
Minus 34 sleeping bag provided was super cosy.
Pee bottle essential, especially on diamox. A challenge for me, 3 layers and on my knees!
Twice daily health checks, inc blood oxygen levels. The guides are well trained and experienced, and also monitor you as you go.
Altitude sickness is random and potentially serious, with Nafika your health is always the priority.
The tipping ceremony is very heart warming, we have so many great memories to treasure.
We are very grateful and proud to be Bubba and Mumma Simba to our Nafrika family.
We hope to return one day. ❤️

The best of the best!
This was our second time booking a safari with Tanzania Choice. They did such an amazing job the first time, we had to go with them. First you start out with the booking and there is nobody better than Brenda. She is very patient, even if you change the itinerary multiple times or add friends to the trip. She knows the best lodges and safari packages to meet your wants and desires. The lodges they use are top notch, we always had great service and the food is amazing.
Now let’s talk about their guides. The first trip we got Noel and he was so amazing. He knew all the animals and had a keen eye. He also taught us some Kiswahili words and phrases. The second trip we got his brother Leslie. I wasn’t sure he was going to be better than his brother, but he was. Leslie is a wonderful person and the love he has for his job and the animals can be felt through his words and actions. He was always very respectful of the animals and put us in the best position for photographs.
Lastly let’s talk costs. I have always been impressed with the value we have received from the costs of the lodges and the guides. Brenda always gives options based on budget and even the lower cost lodges are amazing. I can go on for hours talking about Brenda and Leslie and Noel and how much we enjoyed our time with them. Now you should book and see for yourself. They are the best!

Excellent. Very patient, and resolved the issue very promptly!
It was a fantastic experience. The hotel and the itinerary were excellent, and the guide was very patient. We managed to see almost all the animals—we successfully ticked off the "Big Five"! We also had a perfect view of the Great Migration river crossing.

good
Responses and issue resolution were prompt, and the owner was very patient. Our guide, Emma, was fantastic; the itinerary was well-planned, and the accommodation was great. The owner even thoughtfully arranged a birthday cake for me, as my birthday fell during the trip—it was wonderful.
