Kenya's Wild Majesty: 4-Day Masai Mara & Nakuru Safari

During our holiday in Kenya, we chose Axis for a four-day safari. From start to finish, the entire team was incredibly supportive — thank you to Abdullah for assisting us throughout the planning process, Monica from the sales team, and our amazing guide Dennise who took care of us every day, ensuring we traveled safely and efficiently. Dennise always provided us with informative and engaging guidance. Even though it was nearly the end of the season, we were lucky enough to see the famous Big Five. We enjoyed delicious meals and stayed in comfortable accommodations. I highly recommend this experience. Thank you for everything!

Had a great experience. Got to see all the big five and the ugly five. Saw more lions and flamingos at Nakuru. Thanks to Saddam.

This safari has been really amazing! The first part which concerned the inquiry of information, questions and booking was handled perfectly by Tabitha which has been always responsive, kind and professional. I asked her a lot of question and also changed my plans several time since I was booking for a group of 7 student and she has been very patient and accommodating. The first day of the safari we have been picked up from our hotel and brought to the office of Axis. From there onwards we have been taken care by Yasin, our driver and guide which has been with us for the whole Safari. As I mentioned in the title Yasin has been the perfect mix of professionalism and flexibility. In fact he always drove very carefully, giving a lot of information and answering all our questions. In the park he was the first to ask to the ranger the permission to get closer to the animals so that we could get the best spots to take pictures. On the other hand he has also been super flexible in accomodating our requests and desires. He accepted to extend our first game drive from 8 hours to 12 hours! We left at 7 and came back at 19:00. This was because he did not want to leave the park before being able to find a male lion and we found three brothers around 18 with perfect light from the sunset. So we could really not have asked for a better service. Also the second game drive in Lake Nakuru has been super nice and even if it was supposed to finish at 17, Yasin extend it till 19:00 so that we could enjoy the sunset from the lake in front of the flamingos. During the drives he also gave us a big speaker to put on music and two binoculars. Moreover he had a book with all the birds of east africa and everytime he was telling us the exact name of the bird that we were seeing so that we could look it up also in the book. Regarding the accomodations and food they have also been super nice. We chose the cheapest option but the first lodge in Masai Mara was still very comfortable even though it was not luxurious, but that's part of the experience I think. The hotel in Nakuru instead was very elegant with also a swimming pool that we could use and great food. I could keep writing a lot but then it would be a bit too long of a review so I just conclude by saying that this has been my first safari and he exceeded all my expectations thanks to the organization of Axis and especially to the guide of Yasin. Highly recommended to everyone especially considering the great ratio quality/price.

Axis safaris was really professional with their detailed explanation and planning. The pricing was really good compared to some other places we checked. They paired us with Yasin who was a true professional. His love for his job and nature really made it memorable for us. As he says safari is a bit of luck but his knowledge and connections gave us the chance to see all the animals we wanted (some rare ones such as cheeta and leopards as well!). His car was comfortable and well cared for and he never tried to opted out of doing extra hours or longer stays. He was alwayd like "take your time". He even waited 20 mins to search a book for the name of a bird our friend asked about. I felt like having a companion and not a guide only and this made it a special journey.

Yassin was a great guide. We saw all the animals we could have wished for and had lots of fun. We were in different locations always with good accommodation for 4 days. Friendly and more casual atmosphere with every person involved

First safari with my best friend and just wow it was amazing,truly magical ,Dennis our guide got us so close to the Kenyan super 7

I chose the 4 day and 3 night experience. Communications, service, value for money was all great. We got to see and take pictures/videos of the Big 5 and more (expect for the elusive leopard who kept us guessing). Everything was well organised. Our guide, Dennis, did a great job overall by being observant, interactive, kind and helpful. I highly recommend this experience for anyone who’s considering going to safari.

My experience with Axis Africa Expedition & Safaris was excellent from start to finish. Communication was always quick, clear, and very friendly, which gave me confidence from the first contact. The service was of great quality, with attention to every detail and perfect punctuality. I felt that the team genuinely cares about providing a memorable experience. In terms of value for money, it was absolutely worth it — the experience exceeded my expectations. It’s a reliable, professional, and at the same time welcoming company. I highly recommend it!

Jack is a very funny and entertaining safari guide. I really enjoyed it. The food could vary, but overall it was very good. The hotels were super tidy and clean.

It was an amazing experience. Our trip and Safaris in Masai Mara, Nakuru and Amboseli was organized through Axis Africa Safari and the experience was extraordinary. Tabitha was extremely helpful is organizing the trip to suit our needs and comfort. Our guide Yasin was amazing and took great efforts to make our Safaris memorable and a lifetime experience. We would strongly recommend Axis Africa Safari and Yasin if you want a smooth, comfortable and mesmerizing experience as they will ensure they take care of everything and you will only need to focus on gathering memories.
