Great experience
5/5

Apodiformes did good job organising our entire trip and gave us the perfect driver who took up all our requests and fulfilled it.
The driver Tom was really patient with kids and I never seen him getting anger. We fulfilled all our requests.
I highly recommend Apodiformes for booking Kenya safari Trip.

Amazing Tour Guide! Thank you Martin :)
5/5

Our guide MARTIN was just AMAZING. Fun, on time, reliable, knowledgeable, added extra stops to our itinary!
Thank you for this wonderful holidays.

We went for a 5-day safari with Apodiformes. Planning everything from Europe, I thought would be a challenge, but it was really easy as the company was really reactive and answering our questions.
Only thing was that we were told to pay in USD and not that certain notes were not accepted so had lost a bit in change on the day.

Kenya is even better than we expected: a beautiful with amazing people.
5/5

We have just returned from a fantastic adventure which was a safari in Kenya including Masai Mara, Amboseli, and Lake Nakuru. The services provided by Apodiformes Adventures were good and as promised in the contracted package and a good value for our money. Everything worked well, the hotels were good and we felt safe and comfortable the entire week of the tour. Our guide, Isaiah, was excellent: competent in locating the animals and pleasant to be with (something important when you spend 7 days driving in a van). As a suggestion to future travelers, we recommend avoiding Lake Naivasha and enjoying an additional day in the incredible Masai Mara.

An Outstanding Experience!
5/5

All the process was smooth and easy with Apodiformes, from the itinerary definition to the Safari itself.
Communication was very good, with Silas making sure that everything was perfect.
Our Guide Loi was amazing and able to get us to the best views, always being kind and patient. He is an expert professional and well instructed guide, being also a teacher about Kenyan Wild Life!
We had a 8-day Tour, including Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru, Lake Naivasha and Amboseli.
We strongly recommend Apodiformes for a Safari with your family.

Amazing safari experience
5/5

Apidiformes was the best choice for safari. We booked it for 8 days and we end out trip at Diani.
First of all Silas was always very responsive and in case we need anything we could get in touch any minute. Also he arranged transfers from the airport. What was more impressive, that even when our safari tour ended, we were heading to Diani, he bought us train tickets and arranged transfer in Mombasa!
Our tour guide Freddy is the best! We’ve seen all the “big five” and the “ugly five”. It was really nice that he was very motivated to show us everything. We drove a lot but we saw even more! All hotels were really good and comfortable.
With Apodiformes we feel safe, we saw a lot and we have an unforgettable memories! Highly recommended!
Thank you

Amazing experience!
5/5

We just came back from Kenya and I wanted to share our experience with you.

Firstly we were in contact with Silas, and he was always very responsive. It literally took him only few minutes to answer us, which we appreciate.

Our tour guide Isaiah is a great guy, after 6 days we’ve spent together he became more like family member! He’s a great driver too, I’m usually quite nervous on a road, but Isaiah had our full trust. He’s very punctual and has an excellent sense of humor, we enjoyed going on a safari with him and couldn’t wish for a better tour guide! We’ve seen all the “big five” and the “ugly five”, Isaiah has a good eye and was very motivated to show us as many animals as possible. We also got to learn a lot about animals behavior and their natural habitat.

Thank you, Apodiformes Adventures for an unforgettable memories of our lives. We hope to be back one day!

A caring , competent,personal local tour operator
5/5

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

If you want to see the whole BIG 9 then only with Apodiformes
5/5

We were on safari with Apodiformes beginning from Nakuru and Masai Mara in Kenya, then Serengeti, Ngorongoro and Tsvangirai in Tansania and then Amboseli in Kenya. We can only advise doing safari, specially require Tom if you want to animals from close distance. You will have to wake up early but morning is the best to spot the animals. We had excellent communication with Silas (the owner), quick and proper. We have chosen Apodiformes from top 10 companies on safaribooking.com and can only recommend. Everything was on time and on schedule, suggested lodges (Serena and Sarova) were totally ok, good food and comfortable accomodation.

Very accommodating operator that made it a truly magical experience
5/5

First and foremost, finding the right tour operator was overwhelming until my partner and I came across Apidoformes. Silas was very responsive and helpful in selecting the right package making sure we would get the best value and experience. Although our safari started the morning after we landed in Nairobi, Silas picked us up from the airport and dropped as off at our hotel. We chose a 3 night private safari package at a luxury resort (Sarova Game Camp) inside the Masai Mara park.

The next morning, one of the friendliest persons I’ve met was awaiting us for our safari, Tom. Our safari wouldn’t have been the same without Tom. He made us feel safe, made sure we had the best time and that our wishes came through the. And we were lucky, we saw the big 5 practically every day, thanks to Tom.

I highly recommend taking a private tour like we did because this way you get the most flexibility and you can really get most out of your safari. Sunrise and sunset game drives were truly magical. And on our last day we saw a rhino up close, the cherry on top of the cake.

The resort and the rooms were beautiful. It was clean, and both adventurous and luxurious. The resort staff had the most welcoming smiles and knew our names after the first meal. It felt like we have been staying there for weeks but in reality only a couple days. The restaurant buffet was outstanding (big compliments to the kitchen!).

Three nights was sufficient for us but we could have easily added another three. I can only recommend Apodiformes and big Tom!
