The best and wildest experience ever!
We had an amazing safari with Pavillion! Everything was perfectly organised from start to finish, and all the lodges were lovely.
We visited the Maasai Mara, Lake Nakuru, Naivasha and Amboseli with our guide, Edwin. We couldn’t have asked for a better guide: he speaks English and Spanish, knows the other guides well, and went out of his way to help us see the Big Five and enjoy the fullest possible safari experience.
We then continued to Tsavo West and Tsavo East on a private tour. That part of the trip was just as incredible, with different landscapes and wildlife from what we had seen earlier.
We’re so happy with the whole holiday and would recommend Pavillion to anyone planning a safari in Kenya!

Perfect 4-day safari
We had an incredible 4-day safari in Tanzania with Joagro Safari Tanzania, and it was truly an unforgettable experience from beginning to end!
The wildlife was absolutely amazing, we were incredibly lucky to see lions, leopards, cheetahs, rhinos, elephants, giraffes, zebras, wildebeest, hippos, and so much more, all in their natural habitat. Our accommodations were comfortable, beautiful, and perfectly suited for the safari experience. But what truly made our safari special was our guide, Jimmy. ❤️ He was incredibly knowledgeable, professional, friendly, and patient. He knew the parks and wildlife so well and always seemed to know exactly where to go and when to wait for the perfect wildlife encounters. He also took the time to understand exactly what we wanted from our safari and made the entire experience feel personal and tailored specifically to our needs. Jimmy went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable, happy, and getting the experience we dreamed of. The whole safari was beautifully organized by Joagro Safari Tanzania, and we would absolutely recommend them to anyone planning a safari in Tanzania.

Custom Safari Package
From start to finish, Josero Tours was wonderful to work with. They created a custom safari trip based on exactly what I requested. Judith was always in communication with us during the planning and throughout the trip to make sure everything went smoothly. The guides in Masai Mara and Amboseli were knowledgeable and helpful. I would highly recommend working with Josero for safari trips throughout Kenya.

Excellent Service and Trip Planning
Booked with Viatu after recommendations online.
Simone was our go to trip organiser and produced 3 excellent iterations for us to discuss. Having decided on our iteration she then produced a complete itinerary including photos of planned stops, activities at each stop and travel directions for our 2466 km journey through Namibia.
She was always available for questions prior to departure talking us through visa applications and health requirements.
On arrival our baggage had not arrived and was not being delivered by SAA to our accommodation in Windhoek. One call to Simone and the bags were delivered the very next day! Without her intervention we would have missed an entire day of trip.
The trip itself was exactly as described and each stop just got better and better. Quality of accommodation and friendliness of staff was outstanding and shows the care that Viatu place in accommodating their clients.
Thank you Simone, thank you Viatu.
I have no hesitation in thoroughly recommending both!!

Incredible safari with a superb company
I joined an eight-day safari with Apodiformes Adventures, with an additional two nights in Nairobi, one before and one after the safari, and I had an excellent experience from start to finish.
Silas, the owner of the company, was incredibly helpful and accommodating throughout the entire process. He answered all my questions promptly, no matter what time of the day it was. I also had the pleasure of meeting him in person, and he is a very charismatic, friendly, and welcoming person.
Kevin was our safari driver and guide for the entire eight days, and it was an absolute pleasure having him with us. He was polite, patient, extremely knowledgeable. And my God, he has incredible vision! I always said he has “Eagle Eyes” because he could spot animals from unbelievably far away. Even at a great distance, he could tell us what animal it was, whether it was male or female, what species it was, and so much more. His knowledge of the wildlife was truly extensive.
Most importantly, Kevin seemed to have an internal GPS in his head. He knew exactly how to navigate the parks and where to look for different animals. Thanks to him, we managed to see more than 30 lions in different groups and locations, dozens of hippos, one very rare leopard, a cheetah, and countless zebras, gazelles, giraffes, and many, many other animals.
The hotels and safari lodges selected for us were also excellent. The accommodation was very comfortable, the service was very good, and the food was delicious throughout the trip.
Overall, we had a fantastic safari experience, and I would recommend Apodiformes Adventures to anyone planning a safari in Kenya.

Amazing
Champion made our journey truly special. He managed to take all of our wishes into account and gave us exactly the experiences we had hoped for – and so much more.
Thanks to his experience, we always found fantastic viewpoints and had incredible opportunities to observe the animals in their natural habitat. During our six-day safari, we actually managed to see all of the Big Five – and we owe a huge part of that to Champion and his amazing instinct for knowing exactly where to be at the right time.
Champion is incredibly attentive, considerate, helpful, empathetic, and also has a great sense of humor. Throughout the entire journey, we always felt safe, well taken care of, and completely comfortable.
What impressed us especially was his incredible knowledge. He shared so much with us about the animals, the different places we visited, and his country. You can truly feel how well he knows and loves his home and how much he enjoys sharing his knowledge with his guests.
We are incredibly grateful that we had the opportunity to experience this journey with Champion. He was not just our guide – he played a huge part in making these six days an unforgettable experience that we will always remember.
Asante sana, Champion!

Heart warmful tour
We had an absolutely wonderful safari experience in the Maasai Mara, and we are very grateful to the entire team for making our trip so memorable. From the beginning, the communication and arrangements were smooth and professional, and everything was well organized.
Our guide was knowledgeable, friendly, and genuinely passionate about the wildlife and the Maasai Mara. Thanks to his excellent skills and experience, we were able to see an incredible variety of animals, including lions, elephants, giraffes, zebras, and many other species. He also took the time to explain the animals’ behavior and the surrounding ecosystem, which made the experience even more fascinating.
The team was attentive, welcoming, and always willing to help. We felt safe and comfortable throughout the safari, while still enjoying an authentic and exciting adventure in nature.
We highly recommend this safari company to anyone planning a trip to Kenya. It was an unforgettable experience, and we hope to return to the Maasai Mara again in the future!
