Reviews
Absolutely amazing
Our 7-day safari in Kenya with Axis was absolutely incredible and exceeded our expectations in every way! It was truly the adventure of a lifetime — breathtaking landscapes, amazing wildlife, and an atmosphere that’s hard to put into words.
A huge reason why this safari was 1,000 times better than we ever imagined was our guide Rodgers. He is the best guide we could have asked for — wonderful, professional, and truly dedicated. From day one, he took great care of us and our comfort, was extremely helpful in every situation, explained everything clearly, and made us feel safe and well looked after at all times.
Roger has an amazing energy, a lot of knowledge, and incredible instincts — thanks to him, we saw things we would definitely have missed on our own. He is truly the right person for this job, and he made the whole safari feel special.
We wholeheartedly recommend it — if anyone is thinking about it, it’s 100% worth it!

Wonderful Safari Experience
Phillip was the reason for choosing Acis Africa tours. He was prompt in response and very friendly/personal in person. We signed up for the 4day safari experience at mid level accommodations. I was surprised that the hotels were better than expected. Charles, our guide was extremely knowledgeable and professional. He helped us find the Big 5, no easy task, and we were treated so well. Thank you all!

Well planned and executed.
We had an excellent experience with Axis Safaris, who managed our trip very smoothly from start to finish. Everything was well-planned, comfortable, and stress-free.
A special mention to our guide Tom — he was extremely knowledgeable, patient, and genuinely passionate about wildlife. Thanks to his expertise and sharp tracking skills, we were able to see all of the Big 5 animals, which made the safari truly unforgettable.
Highly recommend Axis Safaris to anyone planning a Masai Mara trip. Professional team, great guide, and memories for a lifetime!

Axis delivers flawless safaris with elite guides, deep wildlife insight, and unforgettable moments.
One word: Khalifa.
Without question, the best safari guide I have ever had.
I am a very experienced safari traveler, having been on safaris across Uganda, Rwanda, Zimbabwe, Zambia, South Africa, and more. Because of that, I have high standards — and Khalifa didn’t just meet them, he exceeded them in every possible way. He completely set the bar for what a world-class safari guide should be.
With over 20 years of experience, Khalifa’s knowledge and instincts are extraordinary. His ability to read the plains, interpret animal behavior, and anticipate movements is nothing short of remarkable. He consistently found wildlife in places I would never have noticed on my own. The results were unforgettable.
We witnessed incredible, rare moments: multiple lion prides, including one that took down a buffalo — and we watched them feeding on their kill early in the morning in the Masai Mara. We also saw a leopard moments after it pounced on a gazelle. I have never experienced so much wildlife action on any safari before.
Throughout the tour, we saw everything I hoped for and more: lions, cheetahs, leopards, hyenas, kudu, black and white rhinos, and massive herds of elephants crossing the road with Mount Kilimanjaro in the background. I truly believe Khalifa’s expertise is the reason we saw so much — this was not luck, but skill and experience.
Derrick, who was training under Khalifa, was also excellent — knowledgeable, attentive, and a pleasure to learn from. Hearing about the Maasai people and culture through Derrick’s personal stories added a meaningful and personal dimension to the experience. Having two outstanding guides truly made this safari exceptional.
Before the tour even began, Monika was outstanding as a communicator and planner. She was responsive, clear, and incredibly helpful throughout the booking process. Monika patiently answered all of my questions and helped me choose the perfect itinerary that truly catered to my needs, travel style, and expectations. Her communication skills and attention to detail made the entire planning process smooth, stress-free, and reassuring.
Axis Africa Expedition & Safaris delivered exceptional communication, professionalism, reliability, and value for money from start to finish. I only recommend companies that meet the highest professional standards, and Axis Africa is one I will confidently recommend to all my friends and family.
This was, without a doubt, the best safari experience of my life.

10/10 safari with a 10/10 guide
We had a fantastic experience with Axis safaris, from the start they were great with communication and catering to all our needs. Everything went smooth from start to finish. We spent 2 nights at Jambo Mara in Masai Mara, 1 night at Lake Nakuru lodge and 1 night at Lake Naivasha Sopa lodge.
Our safari guide Sir Charles was absolutely amazing, he was everything we had hoped for as a guide and made our 5 day safari perfect. We saw the big 5 and had many close encounters with animals and many laughs along the way. I would highly recommend Axis safaris and especially Sir Charles if you’re lucky enough to get him as your guide.

A great operator with a warm, friendly, and committed staff
Unfortunately, my flight was delayed for eight hours and I arrived in Nairobi around 10 pm. I messaged the company at about 11 pm to book a safari tour for the next morning—very last minute—and the staff still replied promptly, making sure I didn’t miss my plans.
Our guide was Mohammad, a very kind, friendly, committed, and knowledgeable person with a comfortable and clean car. He created a lovely and exciting safari experience for us, together with our wonderful travel companions.
Everything about the tour was well-organized. The only issue was on the last day: since our schedule was different from the rest of the group and they had returned a day earlier, the company sent different cars to pick us up, which resulted in us switching vehicles three times. This part was a bit uncomfortable, but overall the tour was great and everything went according to plan.
They are a very reliable tour company, and everyone I interacted with from their team was genuinely kind and trustworthy.

For the value of the experience, every coin was worth it — the quality, attention to detail, and warmth surpassed my expectations. They were reliable in every sense: punctual, organized, and fully committed to making sure we enjoyed every moment. The tour itself was breathtaking, beautifully curated, and filled with memorable highlights. I would confidently recommend Axis Africa Expedition & Safaris to any traveler looking for an unforgettable and trustworthy adventure.”
