Excellent trip.I would definitely recommend this agency to my friends.
The first impression was the consultant was so passionate that he replied to my emails very quick even on weekends.Also,Fredrick took every single requirement I told him when making the tailor-made itinerary.That was why I chose this company among all other agencies.During the safari,our guide Tom also did a wonderful job,giving us surprises consistently.I will no doubt refer them to my friends who'd like to travel here.

Silas arranged our safari over five national parks in Kenya to match our requirements and route.
This was a private safari, just my wife and I, taking in Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru, Lake Naivasha, Amboseli and Tsavo West over 12 days. All parks had different terrain/landscape and we saw the big five plus so much more! Comparing with safari in Kruger RSA we saw more different animals and in greater numbers in Kenya. Our driver / ranger (Nelson) was very knowledgeable and helpful but not intrusive and this made for an excellent safari overall. Camp accommodation, food and service were excellent, all staff were friendly and helpful.
A caring , competent,personal local tour operator
We hired Apodiformes for a 6 day safari tour and 3 day stay at Diani Beach. It was phenominal! Silas made sure we were taken care of in every aspect of our trips. He also arranged beaufiful superior accommodations everyhere we went,each with a beautiful swimming pool to enjoy at the end of each day. The food at each of these places was incredible,smorgasborg style with incredible choices. Our safari guide,Maxwell was an absolute gem. He was honest ,hard working and diligent in making sure we saw everything. He stopped whenever we needed and made sure we had lots of time to see animals and birds closely. He was kind ,personable and fun to be with and most importantly an excellent and careful driver over some pretty challenging roads. We highly recommend this tour agency not only because they are local but because they give superior personal and much cheaper tours over the many international companies like Go etc
Do not book a tour through an agency in your own country. You end up paying up to 300 percent more. Book on line a great local tour group like Apodiformes . You will not be disappointed and you are directly helpng the locals. Thanks Silas and Maxwell for such the wonderful and memorable experience you gave us. We will recommend you to all our friends

Very reliable tour operator giving the best possible experience
We had a beautiful holiday - including a 6-day safari and a beach holiday - in Kenya thanks to the team of Apodiformes Adventures. We chose them to organize our trip because Silas was the first to answer for our quote request and we found both the description of the tour and the price very reasonable. Silas was always quick and helpful to respond our questions/requests while we were preparing for the tour. Everything was just perfect during our stay in Kenya. We enjoyed the safari very much and we are so grateful to our guide, Jackton who is one of the best guides, I am sure :-). Thanks to him we could always watch the animals "in the first row". Jackton did all his best to take us as close to the animals as we could get. Not only did he give us a lot of information about everything and answered all our questions, but he also took a very good care of us: we always had drinking water in our car, we never had to use bush toilet, because he always found better solutions, etc. We are extremely satisfied with the organization of the tour, with all kind of accommodation we used (safari camps, lodge, beach hotel) and with the service we received. So, thank you Silas, Jackton and Joseph for making our trip so memorable. You deserve 5+ for your service :-).

Wonderful safari holiday
The service Silas provides is second to none. Both he and our safari driver James took care of us with the highest professionalism and made our Nairobi city tour and safari (Masai Mara, lake Naivasha, lake Nakuru and Amboseli) a great experience we will never forget. Thanks a lot to both, we wish you all the best for the future and hope to use your services again soon.

Amazing
The organization was top from beginning to end! Pick up in Naivasha and bring back to Nairobi no problem. our driver was really great and made a real effort. We had one of those little busses where you can stand and look out of the open roof. Room and board were convenient ... you may not ask for too much for a price of $ 300 ... had to send $ 100 via PayPal and then pay the rest locally. Currency is not a problem. have seen everything except rhinos. We recommend.

A pleasant adventure in the wild with balloon flight
The communications, services were on the top. The safari tour was something unforgettable. Very many emotions and very nice experience.
The organizer Stephen of the tour is a very kindly person and very helpful. He also helped us to get the tickets for the train (not included in safari).
The drivers are professional, they know all about their job, the cars were always clean.

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 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!

A perfect combo between safari and dream sea
It was our first safari and that's why we were a little scared. Silas proved to be an excellent agent, he always answered all our doubts before and during the tour. all our requests were accepted, beautiful lodges and resorts. all good and scrupulous drivers, Gibson deserves a special mention. He drove perfectly during the safari and always took care of us that everything was fine in the lodge. Even with some waiting, airport transfers were very well organised.
we did the 2 day tour in the Masai Mara and 5 in Diani Beach And I would definitely recommend this agency!!!
Ps: very comfortable jeeps, and that's important when you spend 5 hours on dirt roads!!

Enjoy Safari with Seb!
Dear all,
My wife and I really enjoyed 1 full week around Kenya (Masai Mara, Amboseli, Lake Nakuru, Tsavo) with the best guide Sebastian!
In each game, he tried to catch information around and spot animals and get closer enough for the best pictures.
He has been very kind and professional.
I must mention his VAN, the best (I’m not joking) VAN compared to others. Very powerful/ comfortable both on highways and in off roading (as regular jeep).
He knows shortcuts between destinations so he always choose the best and shortest way.
In case you decide to proceed with a Safari, you should ask for having Sebastian as your guide!
Go Seb! Thanks a lot!
Best
Andrea and Alice
