Exceptionally well organized, and professional. Trustworthy.!
Our experience with Pallid Safari was absolutely amazing. I traveled with my two daughters, and from start to finish, everything was seamless and perfectly organized. We explored both Masai Mara and Amboseli, and the wildlife was beyond anything we expected.
A truly unforgettable moment was coming across six cheetahs early one morning—they practically posed for us! Our guide, Lee, was outstanding—knowledgeable, friendly, and incredibly patient. He made every game drive engaging and memorable for all of us.
The lodges were comfortable, the scenery breathtaking, and we always felt safe and well cared for. it was the trip of a lifetime!

A truly unforgettable adventure
We recently embarked on a safari through Kenya's stunning national parks with Pallid Safari. Everthing was expertly organized by Carolin. From the moment we started off in Nairobi. I knew we were in for an unforgettable experience. Pallid Safari’s attention to detail and passion for the wellbeing of their custommers shone through in every aspect of the trip. Our guide, Lee, was a reliable and save driver, also patient and ensuring that we spotted an incredible array of wildlife, from majestic lions to playful giraffes.
The accommodations were comfortable and well-appointed. Lodges and tented camps showcased the best of Kenyan cuisine. The campfires at night were the perfect setting to share stories of the day and enjoy the company of fellow travelers.
What truly set this safari apart, however, was Carolin's, Lees and Simons dedication to a perfect travel adventure. Everting worked so well!
If you're looking for a safari experience, very well organised, transparent price and good communication, chose pallid safari.

A perfect trip, I will definitely recommend it to my friends
We made the reservation two months in advance and have been in contact with Carolyn all the time. She was extremely patient. She helped us find hotels, revised the plans, and solved every difficulty we encountered. Our guide Lee was also excellent, a very kind and caring person. Pallid Safari is a company worthy of trust！
Very good.
The hotel Carolyn helped book was fantastic, with excellent service. It was a fantastic experience! Lee took excellent care of us along the way, being so considerate and kind. He made sure we had a great time and felt at ease. This was a truly memorable and cherished trip.

Service excellence!
We booked our Safari with Carolyn. Our flight was delayed and affected our booking. She worked around the issue perfectly. She is on the ball, understood my needs and was always prompt in answering.
Our guide/driver was Sammy. Don’t think we could have had a better experience with anyone else. His knowledge, mannerisms were all on point. He knew his stuff. The experience we had in Masai Mara was beyond expectations. Witnessing the migration, literally being in the centre of it was mind blowing. My kids enjoyed it thoroughly. I highly rate Pallid Safari’s.

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).
