Raymond is the best
I had truly the best experience. My driver was Raymond and he was so kind and helping the whole time. The safari experience was breathtaking. If you have the opportunity to go to the Maasai village to meet the tribe please do. Overall I had the best time and made amazing connections with the staff and Maasai people. Amazing time and highly recommend

Enthusiastically informational and Sweet
The value for your money is beyond anything I could comprehend. The budget safari was more than I ever expected, and I would’ve been willing to pay triple what I did for the experience I got

Amazing experience
Positive remarks:
- Incredible experience, 7 days was a good time
- We saw 4 of the big five
- We saw a lot of different African animals from so close, we could nearly touch them
- We saw a lot of different types of birds
- As a budget safari, the accomodations were quite good
- All the people we've met are very nice and helpful
- The parks we visited were very different from eachother, it is really worth it to go to the different ones
Negative remarks:
- Our guide was not really interested in the animals. We had more a driver than a guide, we hadn't a lot of information and some were even false.
- Some activities needed additional fees (Lake Naivasha, Hell's Gate, Masaï Village)
- Masaï Village in Masaï Mara is not worth it, it is a tourist trap
As a conclusion, we ended the safari with stars in the eyes and dark rings under them.

Great experience
Overall great experience with Karibu Safaris. Our driver Mark made sure everything went well and he was very accommodating when we asked for an early start on the second day to catch the sunrise over the Kilimanjaro. He was also knowledgeable and could answer our questions in Amboseli park. He is well connected and got tips from other drivers of where were some hard to see animals like cheetas!

Excellent and professional
This company is very professional, precise and reliable. Our pick up and drop off went very smoothly and we could not ask for a better driver during the safari. Highly recommend them

Perfect driver
I recently had an unforgettable safari experience that exceeded all expectations. The knowledgeable guides made every game drive an adventure, ensuring we encountered a diverse array of wildlife. The accommodations were not only comfortable but also immersed us in the stunning natural surroundings. From sunrise to sunset, the landscape transformed, providing breathtaking moments that will stay with me forever. This safari truly offered a perfect blend of excitement, luxury, and connection with the wild. Highly recommended for anyone seeking an extraordinary wildlife adventure.

Great experience, special shout out to Sammy!
We did two consecutive safari’s, first to Masai Mara and then to Amboseli. First the negative: The communication with the office leading up to it was a bit slow. Also, we would have liked more information on the itinerary, especially the drive from Masai Mara to Amboseli was a lot longer than expected. A warning about that would have been appreciated.
That being said, it was a tour combination that they normally don’t offer, but made custom for us. Which we did really appreciate. Both guides were great, but we especially want to highlight our first guide Sammy. Easily one of the best guides we’ve had in a very long time. Super chill and managed our expectations well. He stayed calm all throughout, also when we hit a roadblock on our way to Masai Mara that had to be cleared by the police.
His experience as a safari driver showed in many ways: knowledge of the animals, knowledge of the park and where we could find certain animals, good communication with other drivers to help locate certain animals. In the end we saw everything there is except the rhino (which is notoriously hard in this park).
Finally, the accommodations (enchoro wildlife camp and manjoro tented camp) were good as well.
