great
The recent safari experience was truly exceptional, leaving us with lasting memories. The planning and execution of the six-day adventure were handled with remarkable professionalism. We were fortunate enough to witness a diverse array of animals in their natural habitats. Johny Jackson demonstrated extensive knowledge of the local ecosystem and wildlife. His expertise significantly enhanced our understanding and appreciation of the surroundings. Every aspect of the safari, from accommodations to transportation, was carefully considered. Overall, the safari was a resounding success and exceeded all expectations.

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).

A Truly Unforgettable 5-Star Safari Experience
From start to finish, this safari was an absolutely incredible experience that exceeded all of my expectations. The entire trip was seamlessly organized, and every detail was handled with precision and care, allowing me to simply relax and enjoy the adventure.
The hospitality was exceptional. The entire team was incredibly welcoming and friendly, making us feel right at home. A special shout-out to our driver, Kelvin, and our guide, who were both phenomenal. Their knowledge of the wildlife and the local ecosystem was truly impressive, and they were experts at spotting animals we never would have seen on our own. Their passion for what they do was infectious, and they went above and beyond to ensure every game drive was exciting and memorable.
The hotels were really good—each one was a perfect blend of comfort and authentic safari charm. The accommodations were clean, the food was delicious, and the staff at every lodge were attentive and warm. It was the perfect place to rest and recharge after a long day of exploring.
What truly set this safari apart was the attention to detail. The game drives were timed perfectly for optimal wildlife viewing, and we saw the Big Five and so much more! The vehicles were comfortable and well-maintained, ensuring a smooth ride even on bumpy terrain. The itinerary was perfectly balanced, with plenty of time for both thrilling game drives and relaxing moments to soak in the stunning scenery.
I can't recommend this safari enough. If you're looking for an adventure that combines thrilling wildlife encounters with top-notch service and excellent organization, look no further. This was the trip of a lifetime!

Amazing! Price-quality everything was perfect!
We had an amazing 3-day private safari through Tarangire, Ngorongoro Crater, and Lake Manyara, starting and ending in Zanzibar. Everything was perfectly organized from beginning to end.
Our contact person, Ushma, was incredibly helpful – she answered all our questions quickly and clearly, which made the planning smooth and stress-free. Our guide, William, was fantastic: knowledgeable and attentive.
We were lucky enough to see the full Big Five and had plenty of time to fully enjoy every moment. No rush, just space to take it all in.
Our stay at Moonbow Lodge was absolutely perfect. The food was delicious – both lunch and dinner were a real treat. The staff were unbelievably kind and welcoming, and the service was outstanding. Our room was stunning: spacious, beautifully designed, and brand new. We felt completely relaxed and well taken care of.
The visit to the Maasai village was a deeply moving and memorable experience.
We’re still glowing from this trip. Highly recommended!

So grateful to Steve and my guide Samuel for a once in a lifetime experience in Kenya! Could not recommend Ramja Safaris more highly to anyone considering a trip to East Africa. From the first email with Steve, to my last day with Samuel, I was so grateful for their great communication, tremendous expertise, and efforts on my behalf. They went above and beyond at every chance. Can't imagine another company arranging such a top quality, custom experience at such a reasonable price.

Jackson was very professional, enthusiastic and friendly.
Our time in Tanzania was wonderful. We saw so many different animals, including the big 5, and saw the most spectacular landscapes. Our driver, Jackson, was very lovely and made a huge effort to ensure the trip was tailored to us. It was truly the trip of a lifetime and we will never forget it!
