Nice budget safari
Everything was quite well organized. The worst was the food, which was quite bad. The accommodation was good and the guide ok (neither bad nor amazing).

Great tour with anoying start and ending due to bad organisation
First of all to start of, we really have to say our driver (Jackson) did his best to show us all the animals Kenya has to offer! Coming with that, the driving was a little crazy sometimes, but he always seemed to have everything under control. Nevertheless, it would have been nice, to get some inforamtion about why we are driving this fast or that the game drive is finished now.
About the accomodations: food didn't really changes over the 6 days of safari and warm water wasn't usual eighter. Still, what can you expect for this same price.
Talking about the price, what sense does it make to have to pay it cash?! We were two peple and had to carry a big pack of money in our pockets while running through half of Nairobi to get to the office... Organisation before and after the tour failed completely... more than that, the guy didn't really care about us so it was hard to trust..
But still, the price was cheap and we did enjoy the safari with all the animals and landscape

Value for money and the best safari company in Kenya
I would highly recommend Karibu safaris. They were very professional in organizing the safaris. Everything was perfect and much more than the expectations.
It's value for money and one of the cheapest and the best safaris company in Kenya. They were punctual in timings. Trip advisor Robert was always active in replying the mails and picked me up from hotel on my first day.
I have opted for 7 days budget safaris and Karibu Safaris made it memorable for me. Drivers/guides Edward and Sammy were good and experienced. Speaks good English and very professional. Accommodation was good and comfortable. Food was nice in all the camps. Game drives were best experience but unfortunately we couldn't spot Leopard during our safaris.
Overall I was happy to choose Karibu safaris which is the best and within the budget.
Tips.
According to me Sammy was a good driver and guide. He is very professional and good is spotting the animals.
Keep additional water with you since it's expensive at campsite and they provide only 1 litr water a day.
Best place to sit in minivan is middle seat. Since I changed two vehicle. One vehicle is not comfortable to stand at front seat and view unless if your height is less than 5.5'.
The experience with karibu has exceeded all my expectations , God bless you.
Firstly, i was quite worried about the trip as i booked it online only after speaking to Roberts on Whatsapp whom i felt to be reliable. However, on arrival Roberts received us and from that very moment the next few days of my tour went seamless. The guide/driver Arun was an amazing person, always on time, caring, happy and never tired of answearing our questions. The safari was excellent. The lodging and foodings were best in its budget. I will recommend Karibu to all my friends and collegues.

High quality experience with amazing affordablility!
We did the three day Amboseli safari and were amazed with the entire experience from Karibu. We were picked up promptly on time in Nairobi and made it to Amboseli by early afternoon. We were situated and served lunch at Kimana Tented Camp before participating in an afternoon game drive. The next day was spend entirely on game drive in the park, complete with plenty of elephant, buffalo, hippo, zebra, and wildebeest sightings. The last day started with an early morning game drive and then we drove back to Nairobi, arriving around mid afternoon.
Overall, we were very happy with our choice of Karibu. Arony, our driver guide, was incredibly caring by ensuring that we were comfortable and knowledgeable regarding the wildlife and their behaviors. Charles cooked delicious and tasty meals all the way through.
Looking forward to another experience with Karibu!
