Great experience,Location and service
This Safari es well organized, professional and the accommodations, run by Masai community members, is absolutely clean and well taken care of. It is also cozy and nice. The staff and drivers were on time and very professional.
Edward, our driver, was kind, professional and very nice. I also had a chance to ride in Aruni’s vehicle and he was also a great driver and really nice. Both went over board to find great animals and take good care of us.
One of the best trips of my life!

Trustworthy
I had a great experience considering my circumstances. My airline lost my luggage and i had to pro-post the trip hoping my luggage would be there by then. Despite not having my luggage my guide Samy advised me well and helped me renting equipment what I needed and I was still able to have a great time. I was well taken care of, getting cooked very well and great service during the whole hike. I love that I could choose the low budget version where I was sleeping in the tent.

Exceeding expectations
We had a 6-day budget Safari to Masai Mara, Nakuru and Amboseli with a guide called Aruni and it was totally amazing.
We were dreaming of a trip to sub-Sakharian Africa since many years and my personal expectations were high, but this trip exceeded even them.
Karibu Safaris is a truly reliable operator with affordable prices and well-designed itineraries. From the very beginning they offered us not only the best price among all quotes requested, but also a free airport transfer and a free accommodation for a night before Safari.
Our guide Aruni appeared to be an excellent driver, who always made an extra effort to get us to the game. Thanks to him, we collected the full big 5 in the first 3 days already. Aruni was both extremely reliable and helpful. At the end of Safari he kindly brought us to the Giraffe Center, yet was actually not supposed to.
Accommodation at Miti Mingi by Masai Mara NP was only satisfactory, but Manjaro camp at Amboseli NP was more then marvelous: brand new, with super-helpful staff and true wild vibes around. I could not have imagined anything like this within a budget Safari package.
Food was simple but always good, noone got sick.
Overall it was probably the best holidays in my lifetime.

Really wonderful experience!
I joined one of their group joining tours for a 6 day safari. Our tour guide was Aroni. I was picked up promptly at my hotel the morning the Safari began and dropped off at a hotel at the end of the tour. In between it was 6 days of a thoroughly enjoyable experience. We saw all the big 5, had 100’s of amazing photo opportunities for animals and landscape. I always felt I was in safe hands with the driving and always had thorough answers to questions about the animals and parks. Really a neat trip! Loved all the children waving to us! Kenya is wonderful!
I really can’t thank Karibu Safaris and especially our guide, Aroni, enough! What great memories you have given me!

An amazing experience with the most professional and friendly guide ever, Aruni!
Our 7-days safari tour was handled at the best way possible. Our guide Aruni was very friendly and made us feeling like with an old friend.
The price for the tour was cheaper than other tour operators but our experience had nothing missing, a great on and off road travel with beautiful buds!
I recommend this safari with Aruni to everyone

Wonderful organisation
The communication by email with the tour operator was great and rapid. The organisation of the safari was good and balanced, not too tiring and not too relaxed. Wonderful landscapes and we spotted all the possible animals, big 5 included!

Very fair and efficient.
For many years I have wanted to go on a safari in an African country. I had whittled my list down to South Africa, Kenya, and Tanzania. If you have ever priced a safari, they are somewhat expensive. I was looking for a two or three-day safari without elite housing, as most of my time was going to be spent outdoors. Karibu Safaris was an excellent fit when it came to value. Even though the housing accommodations were in a tent, I was surprised to have a mosquito net, shower and toilet. Meals were also included. It was not only a fantastic value, but the tour guide was extremely knowledgeable. Everything was exactly as advertised, from picking me up at my apartment to the return time in Nairobi. I highly recommend using Karibu Safaris in Kenya. You will not regret it.

Castro was the best driver,he did for us everything we wanted. Thanks to him we saw all the animals.
We really enjoyed our safari trip. Accommodation was amazing, people were very kind to us. Our driver Castro said to us a lot of informations about animals and nature. It was lifelong experience and we will definitely return back. We recommend this trip to everyone with Karibu safari and driver named Castro.
