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.
