Budget-friendly
I went on a one-week safari. My goal was to visit the Maasai Mara (for at least three days) and Amboseli on a budget. The Maasai Mara is an expensive park, so it is rare to find budget tours that include 2–3 days there. At Pavillion Safaris, I managed to find a suitable tour at the right price. Of course, since it was a very low-budget safari, there were compromises: very basic accommodation, fully packed vehicles, and occasional changes of vehicle, guide, or group during the trip. However, the wildlife sightings were just as good as on expensive safaris; the Maasai Mara was magnificent (I saw the entire "Big Five" on the first and third days, and four out of five on the second), and in Amboseli, there were elephants set against the backdrop of Kilimanjaro. The company manager was always available via WhatsApp.

Incredible tour!
We didn’t know what to expect from the tour, but what we experienced was way more incredible than what we expected! We were able to see all of the big five, many birds and many other animals. Our guide David was extremely good at being at the best place at the right time. The parks we saw during the tour were really different and beautiful in many different ways. Thank you Pavillion Safaris for making our dreams come true!

Amazing Kenya 8 day Safari
I booked an 8 day safari with pavillion and i had an amazing time! It was a great safari experiencie! Dont let yourself lose some optional activities, they are 100% worth it (i loved the walking safari!). Easy communication, fast to reply in the case of doubts and very decent acommodation. Remember you are near a national reserve so dont expect too much of hotles, but they are decent with good, spacious and with healthy food. I cant wait to come back and to a Tanzania safari and when this happens, Pavillion will for sure be my choice. Special thanks for Tim and John, my drivers during the safari

The best!
Such an amazing experience. Felt well looked after. Every day was better than the last and when you thought it couldnt be more amazing something more amazing happened! The guides were respectful to nature but also knew exactly where the animals would be and more importantly where they were walking too so you could get the best up close photographs. Highly recommend this travel company and I will be back again and again and again.

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!

Reliable, friendly, helpful, just PERFECT! Our best experience with a Tour Operator abroad.
It was our first time in Kenya, and we decided to rely on Pavillion. We choose a 6 days budget Safari. I highly recommend this experience.
It was all beautiful, from our camp tents, to the hotel…. Just perfect..
All has been arranged according to our necessities, even if some plans changed during the staying, Peter was ready to help and assist in finding solutions.
Pavillion was really perfect, honestly our best experience with a tour operator, really. I will recommend Pavillion to anybody wishing to come to Kenya for Safari.

Friendly and well willing
We enjoyed our time in Kenya very much. The Safaris were world class and we have seen more animals than we could hope for. Some things which could be improved; the amount of different drivers (4 in 8) days were a bit much. Also the changing of people in the Safari jeeps during the days. For example the first day we had to change people 3 times, this did not give the idea the combination of people in the jeep was planned before and had to change because of different itineraries.
And last, sometimes the driver asked where to go as if they were not told exactly what to do, so we had to look it up multiple times, or another example, they dropped us at the wrong hotel. After checking the itinerary we told the guides and it was no problem and they fixed it right away and dropped us at the right hotel.
And that was the thing, it got fixed every time, which was good. But we felt that if they got a little more information in beforehand of which people to bring to which place. It would feel more streamlined.
Overall the experience was great, thank you for this.
