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!

Meddy and Eddy were terrific guides and made sure we were well taken care of. They were incredibly knowledgeable orienting us to the country as well as while on the safari.

Very obliging and knowledgeable
We went for almost 4 weeks mainly to South Africa plus Victoria Falls in Zimbabwe plus the Chobe River in Namibia.
We had a great time and saw Cape Town, Cape of Good Hope, Johannesburg, had 5 days on the Walkers Plains Camp and saw the Big Five, Spent three days on the Chobe River Savannah camp exploring the river in a Tinny amongst all the elephants, hippos and saw a number of prides of lions.
Ryan also organised for the ROVOS train trip from Pretoria to Cape Town, what an experience, something out of the 1920's !!
Unfortunately the huge rains in the Cape washed out the last part of the rail tracks before Cape Town but no one can control Mother Nature.
Without exception all of the accommodation we had was fantastic, all of the transfers simply just happened on time every time and the whole holiday went off without a hitch.
An amazing feat doing it from the other side of the world.
We were very happy with everything and would highly recommend Ryan Kendall and Untamed Safaris to anyone.

Fantastic tour with everything well planned out
We did an eight day package with Full Package Adventures which included visits to Ngorongoro Crater, Tarangire, Lake Manyara, and 3 days in multiple areas of the Serengeti. The safari was absolutely amazing thanks to our spirited and knowledgeable guide, Adrian. This was our first visit to Tanzania so we did not know what to expect but everything exceeded our expectations and ran very smoothly. I would definitely recommend Full Package.

Friendly, outgoing, the best tour guide
Abouh was incredible. Made me feel safe, comfortable and was very knowledgeable at what he does. This is someone you want to have as a tour guide. You will not be disappointed. He made sure we got to see the animals close up and in action. I appreciate Abouh for all his tremendous efforts on making my safari a special experience. If I ever go back on a safari, I will be requesting Abouh as my tour guide. Thank you for making our experience extraordinary. We will forever remember you.
Our tour guides were fun, knowledgeable and committed to providing a great experience.
Our tour guides arrived on time and transported us safely to all of our destinations. They were courteous and very knowledgeable about Murchison Falls National Park, ensuring we saw all there was to see.

Our two tour operators were were courteous, knowledgeable and committed to our safari experience.
Bright Safaris Uganda enabled a wonderful African experience for a group of 13 people. They navigated the backroads of Murchison Falls to get us to our comfortable and scenic Heritage Safari lodge . Meddy and Eddy, our guides, knew where to find the animals and where to make stops. For our comfort. Highly recommend Bright Safaris!!!

BEST AGENCY FOR SAFARI
We had a very pleasant seven-day journey, took a lot of photos, and successfully saw the African Five Hegemons. Our contact person Paul and driver and tour guide Dennis were very conscientious. We had friends who lost his passports and identity documents on the road. Thanks to Paul's help, my friend Only then did he finally return to China. Our driver and tour guide Dennis was very patient. When I accidentally left my mobile phone in the car, he drove back to give me the mobile phone, which we are very grateful to him. The only improvement was that it took too long on the way to Masai Mara. There was a faster road, but we didn't take it, so we couldn't go to the park that day and didn't go until the next day. Generally speaking, it is a very good experience. In the future, I will recommend more friends to experience the wild beauty from the African continent.

Unforgettable Safari experience
7 days Masa, Nakuru, Naivasha, amboseli private safari - The booking process, guide’s professional knowledge and the daily clean keeping of the land cruiser are all perfect and beyond our expectations, Ken , our guide, is so attentive and he took us to Lake Elementaita to see the flamingos when Lake Nakuru has only pelicans. There are thousands of Flamingos and it is amazing. Of course we see the big five and most exciting is seeing the cheetah catching a gazelle the entire process from a very close distance . We were hoping to see the migration crossing the rivers. Although we only see them stopping last minute crossing the river, we were satisfied as this is nature, seeing them migrated across the grassland is stunning enough. Last but not least , we really thank for Ken’s enthusiasm in taking us to see the big five. Originally we were missing the panther. But when he heard it’s coming out on the tree, he quickly take a U turn taking us there, despite it’s almost the end of the day and we are heading back to the lodge.
The service Axis Africa Safaris provided are top notch and we would definitely recommend.
