An unforgettable experience
We have just returned from the 6-day budget safari in Kenya (Mara - Nakuru - Amboseli).
Positives:
- Communication with Peter before the tour was good, and pickup from our accommodation in Nairobi went smoothly
- Animals !!!
- The accommodation was good, especially considering we booked the budget tour. Especially the hotel in Nakuru and the Nyati Safari camp were excellent.
- Animals !!!
- John, our driver, was great. He ensured that we had enough time to take photos and enjoy the views until we decided we could proceed further.
- Animals !!!
- I would highly recommend the morning walk at the Nyati Safari Camp (not mentioned in the itinerary)
- Animals !!!
Negatives:
- The minivan broke down after about 1 hour on the first day, which caused a 2h delay
- Although the website said "Max 7 people per vehicle", there were 8 people in the van. The problem is: only 7 fit in the open roof area
- They are mixing groups who booked different tours, so you're not with the same people the whole time.
- Lunch packages weren't great (but it's a budget tour)
- Long drives, but this is unavoidable
Overall, we had a great time and I would recommend Pavillion Safaris. We also felt that 6 days was a perfect duration for us.

Amazing tour
It was a great safari with a friendly guide an excellent driver. They had a good eye for spotting the wild animals. Definitely a plus to be in a single private jeep rather than in a long line with all the other jeeps from the same organization, loaded with people. Pickup and drop-off at a different hotel in Zanzibar went smoothly. They stroef our luggage for us as well.

Awesome
Jack was the perfect driver/guide. He brought us in an unforgivable adventure in masai mara and amboseli. We saw 4/5 of the big 5 (rhyno it's impossible). Avalaible in every our request and he explain us about the wild animals world. Always cheerful and professional.
The company provide for nice accomodation near the parks.
I will suggest this combination of company and driver for an authentic safari experience.

Genes is a committed and very knowledgeable tour guide and a warm person.
Genes was the guide for me at a trip on Kilimanjaro. It was a great experience and I felt safe, especially by the presence of Genes. He has a very natural way of making contact and ensures that you have a beautiful experience that you will never forget.
