Experienced and Super Informed Operator
What an incredible safari experienced! The journey was energetic, exciting and full of visual and emotional reward from start to finish. Collins (our guide) was so accomodating and knew everything about the animals, regions, plants etc. He was kind and excitable which infected us all! With his expertise we were able to see the entire Big 5 on our 5 day journey. I can easily say this has been my best safari experience. Accomodations were what you can expect on a budget trip. Sometimes showers are cold. Sometimes toilets don't work. But none of that bothered me too much. I came for the animals, and I was not disappointed.
I do however deduct 1 star because while the guide's driving in the park was great, we had a driving incident (small accident involving a motorbike) on the 4th day between Masai Mara and Lake Nakuru. While this was not entirely the guide's fault, I do feel like his driving was a bit too wild on other sections too and one had to have a strong stomach to deal with it. I felt relieved when we got out of the car. In the end, safety must always come first.
Other than that, I definitely recommend Collins and Karibu Safari's in Kenya!

Worderful Experience
Our experience to a week-long tour to Kenya was superb. We saw not only the usual tourist parks, but several that were certainly off the beaten track. The visits to the Masai Village and the Nairobi Museum were fascinating. The accommodations were excellent and the meals, superb. Our guides was enormously knowledgeable, he did a wonderful job of sharing this knowledge.

Friendly, very knowledgeable and experienced.
An experience I will never forget. I would recommend Karibu Safaris, good value for money, well organised, and it was a privilege to have such a knowledgeable and experienced driver such as Collins to drive and guide us.

Boss
Two friends and I did a seven day tour through the major parks of Kenya. What an incredible experience. We were lucky enough to see the big 5 as well as numerous other amazing up close and personal interactions with all varieties of wildlife. Our tour guide Patrick was extremely experienced and knowledgeable, answering every question that we threw at him. He was also very humorous and sociable, entertaining us on the long drives between parks. What I noticed most about Patrick though, was his genuine love for the parks, habitats, and wildlife. He really loved his job, and it showed. Highly recommend.

Reliable, friendly and economical.
It was one of the best highlights in our Tanzania trip. Topy tours was economical, reliable and very friendly staff . Right from the point we reached Kilimanjaro airport everything was very well taken care. We had a few concerns during the trip but they were very well taken care by that tour operator like dinner at same hotel which was at different venue prior evening.

Good time to meet up with new adventures
As a traveler, I prefer to search a new area alone. But this time it was necessary to seek for a good ranger that will show us the most beautiful views and wild animals in Tanzania. So we have chosen Suricata Safaris. Our ranger is called Vincent. This five days were full of amazing impressions. Firstly, the car was was in good order and every day we got cold water, freshly prepared food, time to have a break. Secondly, I need to mention a huge variety of animals I’ve seen these days: lions, leopards, rhinoceroses, hyenas, giraffes, antelopes, zebras, etc.
Also, I uploaded couple pictures to prove that my journey was amazing.

Amazing trip
I took a 7 day trip with the agency.
Nicolas who was in the planning of the route was very responsive, understanding and adaptable to respond to my requests. The organization was simple, efficient and pleasant.
Levan was our guide and driver during this road trip. A big thank you to him for his energy, his joie de vivre and his dedication to meeting our needs which were mainly to see the animals.
The experience of the Gorillas, and Chimpanzees in addition to the safaris was just exceptional!
You can go with your eyes closed, you will be in good hands and your trip will be smooth and rewarding.
thanks to you two

Reliable, accessible and doing a great job in the selection of accommodations.
We have booked a 4 day lodge safari with Emanuel from Crater Explorer Tours. It was a great experience and we saw all the animals. Especially the accommodations exceeded our expectations, the rooms at Serena Lodge at Ngorongoro Crater had a great view into the crater. We really enjoyed our time and can definitely recommend Crater Explorer Tours.
