Excellent tour guide called James, he was so patient and really directed the tour to our taste.
The communication was great- they were very quick to reply to any question or messages we had before we arrived and then as soon as we met James on the first day, we knew we were in safe hands. The service was excellent, we had loads of space and did as much as we could have done within the few days. He really tried to ensure we saw all the animals and listened to us when we asked to go somewhere/any questions/ if we had enough for the day.

Good value for money but definitely needs improvement!
Tour started as promised. Julius was excellent on transfers from/to airport to hotels. Our first 3 days were great with Stanley in Masai Mara ( very friendly / good driver) and Lake Nakuru. Our hotels Masai Mara Lodge (very good) and Lake Nakuru (average) were both in excellent locations. We had a very short game drive in Lake Nakuru so it was a bit of a waste of time. Last 3 days of the tour after Nakuru turned into a nightmare, spending long hours in the car with a non-company driver with zero knowledge in animals / safari, Amboseli tour was complete waste of time and very tiring... the connections/ timings / this trip could be improved. Suggest 3 days in Masai Mara and 2 day in Nakuru. Overall great experience seeing all of the animals (we have seen them all) but the entire experience could have been better...

Amazing, Informative , And An Incredible Experience.
A group of 6 of us went on the trip, starting in Nairobi and onto Masai Mara. It was amazing from start to finish with no problems throughout the trip. I have to write about our Safari tour guide and driver - James! It’s thanks to him, He made our trip to be amazing!!! He went above and beyond to help us to enjoy our trip- nothing was a problem to him :) He was informative throughout the trip , able to answer any questions we asked and always making sure we were all enjoying the safari! His communication with us was excellent and everything ran smoothly on our safari. It lived up to all of our expectations, we will be recommending to our friends.

Great Tour, good food, lovely staff!
The safari was excellent, Edwin our tour guide was great, he knew a lot of information about all the animals and birds. He was a lovely guide and driver for the tour. Victor was also excellent he picked us from the airport and dropped us back. He was very accommodating. I will definitely recommend to a friend. Food was good everywhere we went. I would suggest supplying water for the tour as it was very hot and if food is included, water should be also I think. Thank you for a great trip!!

Great trip, excellent safari!
Myself and a friend booked this tour very last minute and the guys organized everything for us. All we had to do was show up at the airport and everything else was sorted for us! All drivers and tour guides (Edwin and Victor) were so accommodating and informative. Any questions we had they were able to answer for us! They knew everything about the Masai Mara safari, animals etc. and they made sure we saw as many of the animals as possible! They were all so nice, polite and really good fun! The accommodation was great! We had our own room with a private bathroom. The food was also excellent and plentiful! Overall we had such an enjoyable experience and were felt very comfortable and at ease throughout! I would highly recommend this trip to a friend!

Great Safari with Karibu Safaris
Safari was amazingly arranged,
Airport to Airport m, and our driver Mr Edward (Masai Mara) and Mr Joffrey (Nakuru) was very good, tried all the way possible to show us the Big 5.
I strongly recommend Karibu, and they do arrange stay in Nairobi on first day last day of safari.

Our tour was absolutely wonderful, there wasn’t one problem and I thoroughly enjoyed it.
The tour was just amazing, and that all comes down to our tour guide James, he was absolutely brilliant. He was so helpful and accommodating and always just wanted us to have the best time possible.

JAMES: the best tour guide in all the land.
A fantastic experience overall. James our tour guide was the reason for all this. He went above and beyond to make sure we seen as much as we could see along with being so genuine and helpful in every scenario. As a group of 6 we have travelled a lot and have not met anyone like him. Hats off to James !

Fantastic experience
Communication with Karibu was excellent, Robert was extremely helpful, quick and clear about every aspect of the trip. He also did some last-minute changes the day before upon my request. Really grateful for that. James, our guide, was great. He put in a lot of effort to find the Big 5 for us and was super knowledgeable, giving us lots of information about the Mara and its animals as we went along. We really appreciated him looking out for us as we were two girls travelling alone. Overall, I really recommend the experience but I would do it for 2 nights next time, not 1 - as it was a long drive there and back from Nairobi.
