Incredibly accomodating and organised!
5/5

Silas at Apodiformes Adventures organised a wonderful Safari & Beach Honeymoon for us. From the initial enquiry to the end of the trip, Silas was incredibly communicative, asnwering all of our questions within minutes. The itinerary was very flexible; Silas was very happy to change it a couple of times before we landed on something that worked within our budget. We visited 4 national parks - Maasai Mara, Lake Nakuru, Lake Naivasha and Amboseli. We were lucky enough to see a huge number of elephants, as well as rhinos, lions and cheetahs amongst others. Our driver Tom was wonderful. His knowledge of the parks and the various animals was astonishing. He was always on time, got us where we needed to be safely and always had a smile on his face. We stayed at some lovely lodges which were all very clean and welcoming. After our safari we boarded a trial to Mombasa where we finished our trip at a lovely beach hotel. Everything was so well organised and the entire trip ran so smoothly. We highly recommend Apodiformes!

Safari must do !
5/5

We had a great time on the safari organized by Apodiformes adventures. Silas created a customized plan for us, having the right mix between safari and relaxing time in Mombasa. Our tour guide, Sebastian, was amazing ! Not only did he drive us during the tour through sometimes barely there paths, he also ensured to get us to see all the animals from close by (sometimes, we were the only ones there, contributing even more to the magic of the Safari). Additionally, he would always have the answers to our multiple questions and if he did not know, he would do his research and come back to us later.
The lodges were really comfy, the food there, delicious and varied. All in all, what we received for our customized tour, is what we got !
Last but not least, we took the option to do a hot air balloon tour on our first day in Masai Mara - this is a must do in our opinion !

Amazing
5/5

Thanks to Silas for the excellent organization. We chose from many options, the one that Silas suggested was the best. He answered all our questions quickly before the safari. Everything was exactly as described in the program. Special thanks to our driver and guide James. He told a lot of interesting things about animals and their behavior, and also chose the best places for filming, predicting the behavior of the animals, was very professional and fulfilled all our requests.

Amazing
5/5

As my first time in Africa, I was a little concerned about all the logistic that involves a safari trip. We decided to go with Apodiformes because we saw good reviews about them and we weren’t dissapointed at all. On the contrary, we were very pleased with all the service. They take care of all the details to make it easier for us, so the only thing we should be worry about is to enjoy the trip. It was an amazing experience, everything went perfect, specially with our guide John. He was always on time and making sure that we are having a good time. Thanks to him, we had the best experience ever. It was even better than we imagined.

We saw and enjoyed more than we could imagine beforehand
5/5

We (4 older Dutch people) searched the internet carefully for an organization that we could confidently estimate would make us a good offer for a 13-day safari in Kenya and Tanzania: (Lake Nakuru, Masai Mara, Serengeti, Ngorongoro crater, Lake Manyara, Tarangire, Amboseli and Tsavo West). We have had previous contact with three.
Silas from Apodiformes Adventures made us an attractive and relatively affordable offer. It could also be adjusted to our wishes. Communication via WhatsApp was extremely fast. Silas arranges and decides immediately. There was only some discussion about payment, but we also resolved that. We saw much more than we could have imagined beforehand. Many times the big 5 and beautiful other animals and birds in very different landscapes. The guides/drivers were very knowledgeable and correct. Nelson became our favorite, what a passion that man has. The spacious jeeps were good, a bit old in Tanzania, but good enough.
We thought the lodges we stayed in were fantastic.
In short, we enjoyed it immensely.

Unforgettable
5/5

Our experience with Apodiformes was amazing. Before going, Silas made everything easy by answering all our questions instantly, telling us all the things we need to know and bring there. Then the safari was great!! Our driver Dickson is a nice person and a great driver! We experienced some unbelievable and unforgettable moments in both Amboseli and Masai Mara thanks to him! :)

Overall an excellent experience!
5/5

There are 2 ppl we like to thank for this tour: Gibson (our driver during our 8 day adventure) and Silas ( for helping us arrange this tour).

If this is your first African safari and you want safety, knowledgeable, professionalism, ask for Gibson! It's not easy being a driver for safari, especially when the landcan sometimes be bumpy and we experienced a hailstorm during one of our game drives. Gibson acted very calmly under unpredictable circumstances and made my husband and I feel very safe during this process.

As for Silas, I am very impressed with his communication abilities and how he was able to accommodate everything we asked for on our trip. Something tells me this won't be the last time we work with this company.
