Vacation that will stay in my memories forever
Right when we landed in Kenya, Carolyn was there to meet and guide us. Had some interesting conversations with her about Bollywood movies. Our driver/guide Macha was exceptional too, he was constantly in touch with other guides and ensured we could see big 5 s and ugly 5s. The conversations were so informative, learnt a lot of new things about Africas flora and fauna.
They ensured our safety, even when it was a late night drop at the airport Carolyn came to pick us up from the hotel. I loved their hospitality, definitely recommend them.

Amazing 7 day/6 Night Pallid Safaris Adventure
Began contacting Pallid Safaris in late April to plan and coordinate for this family vacation. Carolyn was wonderful and helping to lay out and schedule the itinerary. She was great at adding in the finer point and details throughout our trip as well: Nairobi hotel/airport transportations, Visa information, younger child (9 yo daughter) hotel and safari accommodations, packing advice, vaccinations and medicines, family suites and club level accommodations in certain camps as available). Pallid’s private pop-top Land Cruiser was top notch as well. Comfortable modern design, Bluetooth enabled for music, several USB’s for changing and very capable and well powered for the in park off-roading and mud/water-traversing. Our driver, Eric, was a pleasure throughout our adventures. Great stories. Very knowledgeable about all the wildlife we saw. Many years of vast experience for every aspect of the trip. While Kenyan driving is an adventure in itself, Eric was an extremely safe and professional driver under constantly challenging driving conditions and I felt very good about the safety of my family throughout our adventures. Strongly recommend Pallid Safaris for anyone considering their own future Kenyan safari vacation

Seamless, dependable, good value, excellent staff and itinerary - such a memorable trip
Pallid surprises us in so many (good) ways! While not the one with most advertising and social media posts, we chose them as we were happy with the itinerary and value they offered and the smooth communication from start to finish. We were an international group of friends (from europe, southeast Asia, and a kenyan).
Carolyn at the office was communicative, accommodative, and dependable. She made sure we got our accommodation secured as it was filling up fast, and even helped me arrange birthday surprises for other participants during the safari. At the end of the trip, she even came to meet us to ensure our experience was good and to take in inputs/feedback f any.
During the trip, our MVP was Sammy, our driver and guide. We fully relied on him through the 5 days safari. He was dependable, informative, courteous, and good spirited throughout the trip, even though this must not be easy work (driving on the road and then on the safari while also keeping us informed, safe, and ensuring that we have a good and happy trip). He also cares deeply about the park and its procols, ensuring that rules are followed and offering a helping hand to other drivers when they got stuck). He was a good wildlife spotter, we saw all but 1 of the big 5 (the one was a rhino, notoriously hard to spot) - for other big 5 we saw many, at multiple times (leopard was 1 time) and sometimes close up (including lions). And we saw countless other animals. Sammy came ready with information of these animals including less famous ones like differenr species of birds etc.
Lodges were great (Amboseli Sopa, Sawela at Naivasha, Masaai Mara Sopa). Food aplenty and caters well to both vegetarian and omnivore. The drive from one place to another was eye opening and allow you to see much of the country. Water is provided through the trip. Vehicle is kept clean. Restroom stops are just at the right frequency and clean.
In short, I have no hesitation to recommend Pallid to anyone considering a safari in Kenya. You will have a trip of a lifetime: safe, comfortable, memorable, well-curated).

Goes above and beyond and beyond
We cannot say enough good things about Pallid Safaris and the effort they put into making sure our once in a lifetime Kenya safari experience was everything we hoped it would be.
Carolyn ensured every detail was planned flawlessly and was there for us from booking, to arrival, and throughout, even stopping by our hotel at the end to make sure we were all good.
Simon, our best ever guide/driver was kind, thoughtful, effective and demonstrated every day our safety and enjoyment were his top priority.
The accommodations were excellent.
The food was top notch.
And the experience getting to see so many incredible animals and breathtaking scenery was far better than we even imagined.
Thank you Pallid for making this one of the best things we have ever done!

Unforgettable Safari Experience: Pallid Made Our Kenya Dream Come True!
During the May Day holiday, we went on a safari in Kenya, Africa. After a week of comparing options, we chose the local travel agency Pallid because their offer met our requirements, and the briefing they provided was highly professional at a reasonable price.
The seven-day safari went extremely smoothly. Our guide, Simon, was very responsible—he set out punctually for game drives every day and possessed in-depth knowledge of wildlife. We saw the Big Five and numerous bird species, even saw lions at three different locations. Simon was also an engaging conversationalist, sharing insights about the diverse cultures across Kenya’s regions.
Our contact person, Carolyn, took us to the Maasai Market in Nairobi at the end of our trip and helped us buy the perfect souvenirs. After returning to China, we realized we had left some belongings in the guide’s vehicle. Carolyn immediately arranged to have them shipped from Nairobi to China—we are immensely grateful for all her assistance!
Pallid is a trustworthy safari team, and we highly recommend them to anyone planning a trip to Kenya!
