Amazing Safari experience with the best driver and guide
We book an 11-day private safari through some of Kenya's main national parks.
The booking process was smooth. Silas was flexible with our requests and did their best to offer quality at the best price.
The accommodations were all great, much better than we originally expected.
Sebastian is a skilful driver. He always manages to get the best spot to watch the animals. He is also a great photographer.
Evanson is a great professional with a deep understanding of animals and plants. He is also fluent in Spanish.
Both Sebastian and Evanson are very kind and take care of us every time. We are grateful to have had them on our trip.

A roaring success-Spectacular safari adventure with an expert driver!
My partner and I both found this experience totally unforgettable. We got our quotation from Fred, his communication was prompt and efficient at all times, keeping us updated with plans and itineraries.
On the first day, our driver Tom (big Tom ) picked us up from our hotel in Nairobi and from then on to Masai mara (2 nights ) , lake Nakuru, lake naivasha and Amboseli.
We found Tom very affable as a person, and as a guide /driver, he was very knowledgeable. His expertise allowed us to have some amazing close-up experiences with animals - for example a lioness with a full swollen belly lounging languidly after a meal (which was nearby), a cheetah stalking a Thompsons gazelle, a white rhinoceros, baby elephants and many more!He was very punctual, everything was well organised by him and Fred, all we had to do was show up, which allowed us to totally relax and immerse ourselves in the incredible safari experience. A standout moment was a picnic in the masai mara with Tom and Dave ( the trainee guide), with little colourful starlings hopping around.
All the lodges we stayed in featured beautiful grounds , generally good food(especially breakfast), and comfortable, clean rooms.
After the safari, we went to diani beach for 3 nights. We had a lovely stay despite the windy weather and not being able to see much on our snorkelling trip due to the weather! The beach was gorgeous and the hotel and the staff were fabulous!
We can't thank Tom, Dave, Fred and all at Apodiformes enough , for making this a memorable holiday that we will look back on fondly.

Memorable 8 Days Kenya Tour
We sincerely thank Ms. Syprose Otieno for organizing an exceptional eight-day trip to Kenya for me and my girlfriend. Although the tour began on the second day of our trip, a pick-up service from the airport to the hotel was provided on the first day. Over the eight days, we visited Amboseli National Park, Lake Naivasha, Lake Nakuru National Park, and Masai Mara. The accommodations at these locations were excellent, offering delicious food and comfortable rooms. Lake Naivasha Sopa Resort and Lake Nakuru Sopa Lodge provided stunning views and exceptional experiences that we highly recommend to others. We also express our gratitude to our tour guide, Dickson, for providing a valuable experience during the daily game drives. He helped us find ideal locations for taking excellent photos, enabling us to see all of the Big Five, as well as numerous other animals and birds. Furthermore, Dickson’s driving skills were greatly appreciated, ensuring our comfort even on bumpy safari roads.

An unbelievable experience!
Firstly, the organization from Silas was fantastic. He made sure that the whole trip was tailored to our needs, and was happy to review and adapt the itinerary until we were happy with every step of the journey. He was professional, helpful and did his best to get us the best quality for the best price - he didn’t disappoint!
Secondly, our driver, Sammy, was superb. We cannot speak higher of his knowledge of Kenya, excellent driving, incredible ability to spot all the animals in the Maasai Mara (including 2 leopards in 2 days!!) and his kindness and care throughout the trip. He was just fantastic from start to finish.
Finally, every Accomodation and every meal we ate was high quality. We always felt safe, well looked after, clean and healthy throughout the trip due to the excellent service of all staff involved both from Apodiformes and the hotels and lodges chosen.
We cannot rate this trip any higher. Thank you for the memories that will last a lifetime!
An good safari with exhausting journey guided by decent operator
The journey is mostly in line with the expectation provided by the operator. We have a two people private trip, and the schedule is indeed flexible. The tour guide Justus makes quite a few call and managed to find cheetahs when we are in Masai. The hotel booked by the operator is decent, while the food is of decent quality as well but tastes all the same across different hotels. Quick communication with turnaround time usually within one hour, if not minutes. If pointing room for improvement, we do have a little miscommunication such as whether certain events is supplementary, but this is greatly resolved soon after the operator replied in 5 mins.

A great adventure
My mother and I really enjoy our experience with Apodiformes Adventures. Our guide, Dickson, was so kind, professional, polite, and so very popular among the tour guide community; we felt very safe and knew he had our backs. The trip was very well curated - a cultural experience, in addition to a simple safari. Thank you, Dickson and Silas.

Fantastic and very helpful tour operator
I highly recommend Apodiformes Tour Operator, who organised our unforgettable luxury safari adventure. We spent 10 incredible days exploring Masai Mara, Amboseli, Lake Nakuru, and Lake Naivasha. Kevin was our Guide and driver. he was very professional and knew everything about the wild life and animals. Kevin was a great guide to us both and we had a fantastic time on our tour, we felt safe around him he was always very helpful and supportive to our needs. We finally settled at Diani Beach on last 4 days. This was a lovely resort and and a lovely rest for us :-)
Our Host Fredrick made sure everything was in place and he would message me to confirm if we arrived safely and made sure all the taxi's and hotels where correctly confirmed and booked. He was a fantastic organiser and we had a wonderful time enjoying Kenya. Thank you Fredrick & Kevin. We will definitely let our friends know about our wonderful experience.

Amazing from beginning to end
As an avid traveler who has been all over the world, from the moment I initiated contact with Apodiformes Adventures, the experience was above and beyond. Fredrick, a Tour Consultant at Apodiformes Adventures was extremely efficient and responsive to all my questions from beginning to end. Within the space of a single day, he surprisingly returned with different quotes as I requested and when everything was to my liking, deposit information with payment instructions was provided and it was smooth sailing thereafter. Our safari tour would not begin on the day of our arrival in Nairobi, however he arranged for airport pickup with no additional fees. Our guide/driver was Jackson and he made our experience just wonderful out in the Masai Mara. He was attentive to how we wanted to schedule the game drives and showed true appreciation and care for the animals as he spotted them throughout the plains with his eagle eyes. I really could say so much more but the conclusion is if you are thinking about a trip to the African continent, you will not regret choosing Apodiformes Adventures to take care of everything. Thank you Fredrick and Jackson for a spectacular birthday trip for my husband and I… 5 stars is just not enough.

Legendary
From our first game drive to the last...our safari tour with Appodiformes Adventures was filled with fun and excitement! Sebastian, our driver and local guide was informative, knowledgeable and committed to his clients having a great time. He communicated well with our teenage daughter also. She felt seen by him and was happy that he was with us everyday of the tour. Sebastian was a professional and safe driver always aware and alert. He was very personable, which made my family comfortable. We were able enjoy every adventure and Kenya's culture.
