Excellent Safari
5/5

When I imagined being out on a safari, I could not have imagined how incredible our driver Aroni would be. He was knowledgeable, friendly and worked extremely hard to ensure our group got the most out of our time. He explained so much about the animals, their behaviour, the challenges facing their species and so much more. We learned so much about the wildlife, and Kenya as a country.

The only disappointment was through no fault of Karibu our driver or anyone else. There are no more flamingos at Lake Nakuru. Recent flooding over the last few years has changed the conditions of the water such that the birds can no longer fly there and eat. While that was the reason we went to Lake Nakuru, it was such a beautiful park that I am glad we went there anyway.

We were communicating with Robert who was very good with his responses and answered our questions clearly.

Thank you so much to the team and specially Aroni who made this an incredible trip.

Karibu Safaris In Kenya is excellent
5/5

We were very impressed with the safari and the way all this was organized. Stanley who took us around, is certainly not only a skilful driver, but can provide one with a lot of insight and organize things on the go. In 6 days we were in three national parks with time to spare (Maasai Mara, Nakuru and Amboseli) – all equally enjoyable, yet very different! In September the wildlife really shows up in unbelievable numbers and this is something we’ll never forget! Accommodation was certainly nice, catering and places to eat just perfect.
Better make sure though you have a fallback when you’ve got an early plane to catch!
Very nice and unforgettable experience by all accounts!

The communication is instant. You will get the proper solution for safari in affordable cost from Karibu.
The guide (James) provided was excellent. The guide has good knowledge in this safari. The accommodation provided was safe, secure and clean. I will recommend to go with Karibu Safaris.

A very good experience
5/5

We had a 6 day safari covering Masai mara, lake Nukru and Amboseli national parks.
The overall experience was great.
Communication with Robert was easy, the airport pickup was prompt.
Our guide and driver Sammy was great, for drives and explanations.
The stay was good, for budget prices.
The best part was we were able to see all the big 5 on our second day, in the same drive, (two leopards on the same tree !!) , along with the crossing at the Mara river.
I would highly recommend Karibu safaris for anyone looking for a budget safari.

Excellent
5/5

The 4 days trip provided by Karibu Safaris In Kenya was very fascinating. Dan waited for me more than 2 hours when I arrived in the airport and picked me up to the hotel, and bought me 4 bottles of water for the following 4 days. During the safari, the nice driver guides showed us the amazing natural views in the Masai Mara, Nakuru lake et al., and a lot of animals I only saw in TV before. The food and the accommodation were both pretty satisfied. At the end of the trip, Dan also picked me up from the hotel to the airport and finally I returned back home in safety, which is the most important part in the trip.
The price for the whole trip is fair and I highly recommended Karibu Safaris In Kenya

Value for money and the best safari company in Kenya
5/5

I would highly recommend Karibu safaris. They were very professional in organizing the safaris. Everything was perfect and much more than the expectations.

It's value for money and one of the cheapest and the best safaris company in Kenya. They were punctual in timings. Trip advisor Robert was always active in replying the mails and picked me up from hotel on my first day.

I have opted for 7 days budget safaris and Karibu Safaris made it memorable for me. Drivers/guides Edward and Sammy were good and experienced. Speaks good English and very professional. Accommodation was good and comfortable. Food was nice in all the camps. Game drives were best experience but unfortunately we couldn't spot Leopard during our safaris.

Overall I was happy to choose Karibu safaris which is the best and within the budget.

Tips.

According to me Sammy was a good driver and guide. He is very professional and good is spotting the animals.
Keep additional water with you since it's expensive at campsite and they provide only 1 litr water a day.
Best place to sit in minivan is middle seat. Since I changed two vehicle. One vehicle is not comfortable to stand at front seat and view unless if your height is less than 5.5'.

The experience with karibu has exceeded all my expectations , God bless you.
5/5

Firstly, i was quite worried about the trip as i booked it online only after speaking to Roberts on Whatsapp whom i felt to be reliable. However, on arrival Roberts received us and from that very moment the next few days of my tour went seamless. The guide/driver Arun was an amazing person, always on time, caring, happy and never tired of answearing our questions. The safari was excellent. The lodging and foodings were best in its budget. I will recommend Karibu to all my friends and collegues.

High quality experience with amazing affordablility!
5/5

We did the three day Amboseli safari and were amazed with the entire experience from Karibu. We were picked up promptly on time in Nairobi and made it to Amboseli by early afternoon. We were situated and served lunch at Kimana Tented Camp before participating in an afternoon game drive. The next day was spend entirely on game drive in the park, complete with plenty of elephant, buffalo, hippo, zebra, and wildebeest sightings. The last day started with an early morning game drive and then we drove back to Nairobi, arriving around mid afternoon.
Overall, we were very happy with our choice of Karibu. Arony, our driver guide, was incredibly caring by ensuring that we were comfortable and knowledgeable regarding the wildlife and their behaviors. Charles cooked delicious and tasty meals all the way through.
Looking forward to another experience with Karibu!
