Awful tour for affordable price level.
We can truly say, we had a great tour with many highlights, especially in Maasai Mara, where we got in close contact to the big five. Before starting the tour we had no big expectations, but after the tour all our expectations have been fulfilled. The accommodations were okay as well as the food, which was served. We had a perfect guide (Arony). He was a very good and safe driver and took care about us all the time. We can recommend Karibu Safaris in Kenya to all, who would like a budget and no luxory safari.

Good.
Sami, the car driver was really good . And Kioko the chief as well. The hotel was not so nice without hot water and only 2 hours of light a Day.

Great safari!
We had a great tour in Masai Mara. Although the drive from Nairobi to Mara and back is a lot, we were extremely happy and saw the Big5 and others. Our guide/driver Edward did amazing job in finding the animals and he is really kind&funny but he isn't the most talkative and would only share more details when asked. For me that was more than fine, but I'd assume that some people would enjoy of more interaction. The accommodation was a nice tented camp and food filling African stuff with possibilities to buy extra drinks or chocolate bars. Due the company's internal matters, our game drive on Sunday morning was cancelled but when requested we were organized additional program in Nairobi before our flight home. If we wouldn't have seen all the animals during the previous drives, that would have been a bigger deal but now we were satisfied with the compensation. Overall, excellent value for the money, truly student friendly and great experience!

Three day-two night safari, lots of animals and driving
Really great tour of Maasai Mara, saw all big 5 animals and lots more. Lots and lots and lots of driving on bumpy roads at high speed. Took a toll on the body and was difficult to sit all day. Driver was excellent for finding animals but did not tell us much about the animals. Very friendly on the wallet.

Good value for money
This trip was just great! The communication prior the safari was effortless and easy. The transport was on time, comfortable and very convenient. The accommodation and food were simple, but very nice. I will say that for this cost, we were impressed. I recommend!

Nice budget safari
Everything was quite well organized. The worst was the food, which was quite bad. The accommodation was good and the guide ok (neither bad nor amazing).

Great tour with anoying start and ending due to bad organisation
First of all to start of, we really have to say our driver (Jackson) did his best to show us all the animals Kenya has to offer! Coming with that, the driving was a little crazy sometimes, but he always seemed to have everything under control. Nevertheless, it would have been nice, to get some inforamtion about why we are driving this fast or that the game drive is finished now.
About the accomodations: food didn't really changes over the 6 days of safari and warm water wasn't usual eighter. Still, what can you expect for this same price.
Talking about the price, what sense does it make to have to pay it cash?! We were two peple and had to carry a big pack of money in our pockets while running through half of Nairobi to get to the office... Organisation before and after the tour failed completely... more than that, the guy didn't really care about us so it was hard to trust..
But still, the price was cheap and we did enjoy the safari with all the animals and landscape
