Unforgettable Safari with Pavillion Safaris and Tours – Thank You, Patrick!
5/5

We had an absolutely amazing experience with Pavillion Safaris and Tours. From the moment we started, everything was perfectly organized and stress-free. The real highlight of our trip was our guide, Patrick – he was truly outstanding.

Patrick was not only incredibly knowledgeable about the wildlife and landscapes, but also kind, patient, and genuinely passionate about what he does. He made us feel safe and looked after every step of the way, while also making the experience fun and engaging. Thanks to him, we spotted all kinds of animals, including the Big Five, and learned so much about the region and its culture.

The vehicle was comfortable, the itinerary was well-balanced, and every detail was taken care of. We can’t recommend Pavillion Safaris and Patrick highly enough – if you’re planning a safari, you’ll be in the best hands!

An unforgettable family experience
5/5

We had an amazing 6-day safari with Pavilion Safaris. It was truly unforgettable — we saw the Big Five, cheetahs, lions up close, elephants with babies, giraffes, hippos… incredible wildlife! But the highlight was our guide Patrick: knowledgeable, kind, and very experienced. He knew exactly where to go and made sure we didn’t miss a thing. Highly recommended — we’ll definitely book with them again!

Wonderful experience
5/5

We just got back from a 6 day safari with Pavillion tours from 2-8 of July 2025. We were a bit reluctant to start with, as many of the reviews were local, and you never know… but after speaking a couple of times with Peter, he gained our trust and we decided to go with Pavillion. Absolutely the right decision!!!
Our driver/guide Patrick picked us up on time at the hotel, and was friendly and professional from day one. Our group (2 families with 3 kids total) was well taken care, and we felt safe the whole stay. The kids even cried and gave Patrick a hug the last day when he dropped us off at the airport.
About the safari, we went to Mara, Nakuru and Amboseli. We saw the big 5, and also learned about all the other animals and discovered about the ugly 5 too. Patrick was very diligent and could see all the shy animals long before we did.
If you’re looking for a professional safari company, Pavillion is your place. They will help craft it based on your budget and type of animals or lodges you want to stay at.

Thank your Peter and Richard for everything, we will all remember this trip during the rest of our lives.

This was a wonderful trip that overall met expectations.
5/5

The entire trip was very well organized by Peter, and you can always contact him promptly if anything comes up. Overall, the travel experience met my expectations, and there were no unexpected issues—except for one instance when the car broke down on the road, which caused a bit of a delay. Therefore, I strongly recommend choosing a 4×4 off-road vehicle as your means of transportation. Although we stayed in tented camps, the accommodation was acceptable, and the food was quite good as well.

Phenomenal experience
5/5

Peter was extremely helpful answering any queries I had and explaining the whole process, The 8 day safari was the perfect amount of time and very good value for the price! My driver Sam was also extremely knowledgeable regarding all the animals and the landscape.
Once in a lifetime experience could not recommend anymore to anyone thinking about doing a safari with pavilion!

Organized and professional
5/5

My girlfriend and I went on a 6 day budget safari with pavilion !
Let’s start by saying how greatly planned it was! Although there was lots of driving from park to park as we chose a tour that covered many different parks, they still made sure we maximized time within the parks and time with the animals. We Had Anthony as our guide! Anthony was amazing, he has 11 years of experience doing safaris in Kenya, he always made sure we had what we needed and that everyone in the group was taken care of at the camps, he spoke great English, and when other guests who didn’t speak much English needed to know more, he made sure that they got what they needed, either asking us to help explain, or using translator apps.

We loved that we did the park in the off season, this meant less traffic in the park, less vehicles around the animals and an all in all more natural feeling safari!

We upgraded our vehicular from the van usually used in the budget safaris to the Land Cruiser!... Read more I would highly recommend this to anyone doing this trip, it is worth the extra money! You can go more places in the park and there for get better sighting of animals, of which we had lots! (See attached photos! Haha

We will 100% be back!

Beyond my expectations
5/5

Safari was well organised from start to finish. I was able to see a lot from from my first day there until the end. Communications were good with them checking in to make sure everything was OK. Accommodation was excellent by providing a tent experience. Whole experience was beyond my wildest expectations.
