8days safari with Karibu
We (couple) booked 8 days safari with Karibu. Communication was very easy, Robert from office answered all the questions quickly (same day within a couple of hours). It's an affordable budget safari and we really enjoyed the whole experience. The accommodations are basic but fit to the purpose. Karibu offered to upgrade the camps so if you like you can pay more for better quality. I found this system very flexible and their way of working is really effective. The drivers are friendly however sometimes you have to ask them to inform you and/or tell more about the parks and wildlife. Overall it's a beautiful experience and well worth the money paid for 8 days. Additionally we booked 1 day to visit Nairobi national park, Sheldrick orphanage and giraffe center. I highly recommend this company!

Provided us an experience even better that promised while booking, our tour guide James is great.
Agency made all efforts to make our time in Kenya comfortable including pick up at the airport, arranging pre and post safari hotel bookings and prompt reply to all our communications. The safari was as an unique experience, our tour guide made all efforts to take us to the right spots at the right time.

Great experience for a budget safari
Bearing in mind the cost of this safari, everything went quite smoothly. Accommodations are basic, but clean. Food was decent, although not a lot of variety. Be warned that you will spend a lot of time in the vehicle, so it is advisable to stock up on snacks and drinks! Our driver, James, was fantastic and very knowledgeable about the animals and birds we saw. He also knew all the best places to find them and went out of his way to make sure we saw plenty of wildlife. In addition, he is friendly and courteous. We saw the Big 5 and much more on our 1 week safari. Overall, a great experience, thank you Karibu Safaris!

Best experience ever!
We were very amazed with the service of both Richard and Albert. A driver picked us up on time from our hotel then we joined Richard and Albert, as well as other travellers. The drive was long but Richard and Albert were very thoughtful of everyone’s needs which made the trip very enjoyable. They would try their very best to cater to everyone and ensure we see all the animals during the game drives, as well as giving us time to take as many pictures as we need. Accommodation was much better than we expected. Whoever gets Albert and Richard on their tour will be very lucky.

Fast response, very reasonable price and excellent tour planning.
Over all our experiance is excellent. We worked with Robert and he gave us great service. He respond very quick and solve any problem or question we had with a reasonable time.
Our tour guide Aroni and Joel were very good. Robert and Aroni went out of their way to locate our missing luggage and bring to the park on the next day. They had to send someone back to the airport the next day. We were really treated as their guest and we are very thankful on that. What they did for us was more than what they have agreed to do for us.
Aroni was calm and he make sure we covered everything. In our opinion he was number one. I suggest you ask for him. He make sure your luggage are covered so they don't get dusty every time he loads it. He gave a true meaning to the "hakuna matata" saying. We had no worries while we were touring with him. He managed to help us see the big fives.
Robert helped as getting transportation on the extra day we had their in Nairobi. That was not part of the tour and he was even willing to send us someone to give us a city tour. Thanks for that too.
My only complain if any would be the hotel to be communicated better. They ask us pay and when we told them to call Robert. He took care of it right away. It seems like a communication gap between the hotel and victor who also work at the tour company. Victor apologized once he knew that he was wrong. Things like this could be irritating do be careful victor.
In general, we are very happy with the service and recommend this company to our friend and families with no hesitation.
Thanks for the job well done.
