Abundance of wildlife and beautiful scenary
Kenya is the birthplace of Safari for a reason. There are so many different parks, where you have the possibility to go on a safari. All the parks offer geat game drives and the scenary is beautiful. Even the lesser known national parks are home to lions, leopards, cheetah and so many other animals. So it's worth spending a bit more time and not only go for the most famous parks, especially since Kenya is a little bit more affordable than other countries. We had a super guide for two weeks, who was so friendly and passionate about his job. It made the whole experience very enjoyable.

Kenya is truly magical!
I had a wonderful week in Kenya! I got to experience vibrant Nairobi during the work week and then an unforgettable weekend on a Masai Mara safari. It is a truly magical place rich in culture and nature!

Amazing wildlife, stunning sunsets.
Our tour operator was Axis travel, and they were amazing and beyond helpful. Cynthia provided so much support for us, even beyond the actual safari trip - including organizing transport to and from the airport, answering all the questions, etc. Our guide Kelvin, was so cool. He was kind, he knowledgeable, and he kept us very safe. Many times we saw some irresponsible driving, but Kelvin always kept his cool and took such a good care of us. Really, he made our trip superb.
One thing about Africa is that everybody asks for tips (at Axis even this was awesome and Kelvin was awesome). But people ask for tips that you don't even know what you are tipping... like we served you breakfast, tip us, we picked p the dishes tip us, we are going to the restaurant bathroom tip us etc. It is very extreme and strange for us coming from Europe. You can tell that Africa is a third world country and that there is such a corruption and poverty as people talk about it. Yet the prices are high and... Read more it makes you wonder how people manage to survive.
The country itself is so stunningly beautiful. Wildlife, coastline, everything.

Fantastic
Masai Mara, Amboseli, Lake Nakuru, Lake Naivasha, Tribal villages are the top things which come to the mind when i think of my recent Kenya trip, all these places are a must visit. We were lucky to spot the Big 5 along with a host of other wildlife. The weather in August is fantastic though its cold in the morning but manageable. The people were extremely good and willing to help out all the times. We stayed at Masai Mara, Nakuru, Amboseli and all these places the stay arrangement was very good and the staff was very courteous and helpful. If you desire to visit this place make it a 6-7 days tour to cover all the beauty of Kenya.

It’s worth visiting to see and enjoy wildlife.
It was a nice experience to visit and join the tour to safari. We really enjoy the all of the experience. However I was disappointed its weather in this season. We couldn’t see Mt.Kilimanjaro. It’s better for you to consider the best season.
Beautiful country, wildlife and scenarios.
Trip Review: Incredible Kenya Adventure (August 3 - August 13)
I just returned from an unforgettable trip to Kenya, taking place from August 3 to August 13, and it was truly a dream come true! We traveled with Apodiformes Tours, and I cannot recommend them highly enough.
Our journey included visits to some of Kenya's most stunning destinations: the Masai Mara, Lake Naivasha, Lake Nakuru, Amboseli National Park, and Tsavo National Park. Each location offered its own unique beauty and a plethora of wildlife.
Kicking off our adventure in the Masai Mara, we were treated to remarkable wildlife sightings, including the Great Migration. The thrill of watching wildebeest and zebras traversing the vast plains was something I will never forget. Our driver, Kim, expertly navigated the reserve, ensuring that we had the best views of animals, including lions, cheetahs, and elephants.
Next, we visited Lake Naivasha, where we went on a delightful boat ride. The serene waters were... Read more home to a variety of birds, including pelicans and herons, and we even spotted a few hippos lounging nearby. The scenery was stunning, with lush green surroundings and a sense of peace that invigorated us for the next leg of our journey.
Our trip continued to Lake Nakuru National Park. This park is famous for its vibrant flamingos and diverse wildlife. Kim guided us through the park, where we were able to see the stunning pink hues of the lake, as well as rhinos and a variety of other wildlife. The sight of a rhino was a personal highlight for me!
Amboseli was another highlight of our tour. With Mount Kilimanjaro in the background, the views were breathtaking. We were fortunate to see large herds of elephants up close, and again, Kim's deep knowledge of the area made our experience richer. He shared fascinating facts about the ecology of the park and the conservation efforts for its wildlife.
Lastly, we explored the magnificent Tsavo National Park. Its vast landscapes and vibrant ecosystems left us in awe. We spotted plenty of wildlife, including giraffes, zebras, and various antelope species. The sense of adventure was palpable, and we loved every moment of our time there.
Throughout our journey, Kim was an outstanding driver and guide. His expertise and passion for wildlife and culture enriched our experience immensely. Kim was friendly, accommodating, and always willing to go the extra mile to ensure we had an incredible time.
The accommodations arranged by Apodiformes Tours were excellent, providing great comfort after our daily adventures. Each lodge and camp featured warm hospitality and delicious food, making our stay even more enjoyable.
Overall, my trip to Kenya from August 3 to August 13 with Apodiformes Tours was a remarkable adventure filled with stunning landscapes, incredible wildlife, and rich cultural experiences. I am grateful for the memories made and highly recommend this tour company and especially Kim as a guide to anyone looking to explore the beauty of Kenya!

Mesmerising
Beautiful country with lovely people. Organised very late but got an outstanding help through Splendid Vacations’ Alice who tailored our tip perfectly. We stayed the first night in Nairobi to refresh and re-energise after the long flight to be ready for our safari adventure next day 7am. Wanted to visit Amboseli but Hotels were fully booked so diverted to Ol Pejeta as first stop for 2 nights. We saw many animals - highly recommended and during night safari saw several Lions in action. Next was Lake Naivasha -again the island trekking excursion was a great suggestion that is worth the day. Next day we went to Hell’s Gate National Park enjoying a cycling tour, beautiful landscape and helpful ranger that explained us everything. Lake Nakuru was the next stop and although the flamingos were not too many, spotted most of the savannah’s animals. Last part of trip we headed to Masai Mara, stunning scenery and vast plains. Saw wildebeests about to take on the Mara river but unfortunately their... Read more changed their mind - good excuse to go back for a third time. Again plenty of wildlife spotted. Last but not least to end the safari part headed to Carnivore in Nairobi. Joshua, our driver and guide was amazing, planning ahead each movement and giving insights all the time. Second part of trip was Diani beach which we reached by train, it takes 5 hours (Nairobi-Ukunda takes about 1 hour by plane which we took on the way back) but scenery is magnificent going through Tsavo park, coaches in first class give you more space and there is a restaurant on board as well. Diani beach is a jewel not to be missed. Pristine white beaches with plenty of activities to choose from. We found people to be very friendly wherever we went, and not being our first trip to Kenya we can only recommend it. Never felt unsafe and always welcome! Thank you Kenya, Alice and Joshua for making it such a great trip.
