Our tour operator/guide/driver has been a knowledgeable, professional and skillful.
My husband and I had a private 7-day safari trip (Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru, Samburu Sopa to Aberdare) with Aanika Karibu Safaris in Kenya and our experience has been phenomenal!
Starting from getting the trip organized from a world away, Robert our Trip Adviser delighted us by his great communication skills by addressing all our questions/requests with prompt responses. We were picked up at Nairobi airport by the Maurice, who welcomed us as a family member to drop us at our hotel. His friendly nature and excellent communication skills have won us over! Next day we started our safari and Maurice picked us up and introduced us to yet another outstanding individual, our driver/guide Edward, with whom we traveled for the next 7 days! Edward is a highly qualified and skillful driver who maneuvered the city as well as the jungle roads effectively and took us through out. We were fortunate in seeing the Big 5 and numerous other species in just the first 2 days!!
I would highly recommend the services of Robert, Maurice and Edward to all my friends and family planning future safaris in Kenya. We experienced a great reliable tour for the value for our money. Thanks!

Great experience
The safari went great, all included. Communication with the driver and pick up were very good. Accommodation was very good, I slept in a shared 2 people tent the first night, and the second night I slept alone. Food included in the pack was also good, a few different options available. The guide took good care of us and was available for anything. Service and price were very good value.

Great experience in Nairobi NP
A great experience with this tour operator. We were a group of eight, and we booked a half-day tour of Nairobi National Park with them. They picked us up from our hotel on time. A very good experience.

Collins was an amazing driver!
He kept us safe but at the same time, he got us up close and personal to each and every animal

Not sure if any other company can do it better than Collins
It was my first time in Masai Mara, Collins our driver was beyond professional, he got us to see 4 of the big 5, we also got to see plenty cheetahs, and almost any animal out there. We were not following other vehicles, they were following us, Collins follows his experience not others. I want to return with my family and friends and I’m sure that I want him to be my guide again. I cant express my gratitude for his professionalism and kindness to perform his labor. You’re awesome Collins, see you soon.

Compliance with agreements and 100% customer satisfaction oriented during the tour
I found "Aanika Karibu Safaris" after some internet research and some hesitation, and after reading other travelers' reviews, I decided to organize my family trip (4 adults) with them. Let me just say that if I were to take another similar trip, I would definitely do it again. They met our expectations 100%. They responded promptly to our requests (before and during the tour) and organized the park circuit according to our personal interests and the selection of hotels we preferred.

Fantastic Tour at Affordable Price
We had a wonderful time on our Safari from Nairobi to Diani. We saw so many wild animals up close, it was a truly one ina lifetime experience. Collins our guide truly went above and beyond to deliver an amazing experience and his expertise in spotting animals and finding just the right location to stop for them was incredible. Each day of the safari was fantastic and each location offered something a little different so we were never bored. The safari was such good value as well. For a budget safari, we weren't expecting so much from food and accomodation but they all exceeded out expectations and then some. I would highly reccommend this safari to anyone and have mentioned it to friends already.

Great budget option for private family tour
Communication with the tour company was mostly timely and very accurate. We booked a 5 night private safari for our family of 4 and it was really good value compared to most of the other quotes we received. Our driven Steven was an excellent driver and we felt totally safe with him at all times. He was alert all the time when driving, his navigation skills were incredible and he used his contacts with the other guides so well to get us to the animals. The camps and hotel we stayed at were all really nice and perhaps even exceeded our expectations as we had gone for a budget option. The wildlife was the true star though and the Masai Mara in particular really was amazing. The only thing I would question is the itinerary over 5 nights as 2 days we spent mostly driving in between locations, so it would have been better to spread over a slightly longer time frame.

Amazing 4 day tour up Mount Kenya!
I had a great time hiking up Mount Kenya with Jimmy my guide who was very supportive and keen to make sure I was comfortable. Our porters were a great help and cooked use 3 amazing warm meals a day to get us through the hiking. Would thoroughly recommend!
