Wonderful experience with karibu excellent service.
5/5

We had a wonderful six day safari in Kenya¡ Robert is an excellent trip advisor, he answered all our questions about visa, itinerary, price, optional trips and what was included. Since we arrived at the airport they were waiting for us, drivers Gibson and Jackson were very formal and kind on their duties, food was enough and good. Masai Mara, Amboseli,Lakes Nakuru and Naivasha were marvelous¡¡

dream come true
4/5

For us- doing the safari was a dream come true. We saw pretty much everything we ever wanted. Of course- the communication, the car or the accommodation could have been better, but well- we chose the budget option. For those considering Karibu Safaris- go for it but choose the mid-range option, it is worth it.

striiking experience
4/5

During 3 days and one night, myself and other six guys went to Massai Mara. The experience was absolute incredible. Accomodation was in Rhino Tourist Tented Camp, good option, clean, nice food, gentle staff... our driver Isaac knew very well the area and his knowledge about the park helped us in order to ejoy the trip.

3 days safari Maasai Mara
5/5

In advance it was easy to communicate with Karibu Safaris, Robert answered all my questions and very quickly by email. And overall their customer service was very friendly and helpful. They picked me up from bus station before safari started and storaged my stuff during the trip. When we get back they drove me to my place and brought all my stuff there!
The Safari was great and we had a lot of time to see animals. Accommodation was very nice and enjoyable. Atmosphere at the camping area was so nice and it was great to meet those maasai guys! So nice experience!

3 days in the wildlife of Masai Mara
4/5

The safari booking process was clear and the price fair. The driver came to pick us up at the hotel and was excellent in driving along the unpaved road leading to the park. The three days were nice, and so was the tented camp. The bottled water was not present in the jeep in the quantity agreed.
Very positive experience.

Exellent and well-organized safari.
4/5

I thoroughly enjoyed the service provided by Karibu Safaris. We got to see all the Big 5 and many more animals. The tented camp we stayed at ,"Elephant Springs", was well kept and very comfortable. The meals provided throughout the experience were excellent.
The only reason I didn't give 5 stars was due to our driver. He was friendly enough and tried his best - driving over 100kms on our second day - but lacked the ability to interact with the clients on a scale that I have experienced on other safaris - this may have been due to an insufficient English language skills. It may also have been because we were in the back of a large mini-van and hearing was sometimes difficult. He also had a habit of driving close to other cars which meant 'eating' a lot of dust. It would have been easy to pull back a bit (say 50 metres) and avoid the dust. I understand he was sometimes in a hurry to get to rare animals (eg, rhino, cheetahs) when it was radioed through and I appreciate this. Also, he tended to drive off before we had finished photographing and on other safaris I have done the driver always made sure that we were ready to go.
The van we used had 8 people in it despite being promised that there would only be 7, with a window each. I suspect this was done to enhance profits. Admittedly I did change my dates a few times so maybe they had a good reason for this. This did not affect our safari so much as there were a couple of older ladies who had been on various safaris before and they were mostly happy to view from the windows. Make sure you are promised only 7 as it could get crowded at the top of the pop-up-top.
I think Karibu Safaris has a lot of promise. The driver we had just needs a few training tips and he will be fine. I would not hesitate to book them again.

Great Safari, and a great introduction to th Mara.
5/5

First, thanks to Robert and his team for all the preparations (hotel bookings and airport transfers) which made it very easy to take part in this safari. Dennis and Peter, the driver/guides were both excellent - knowledgeable, friendly and efficient. The vehicle we travelled in from Nairobi was excellent - as comfortable as a safari vehicle can be. Our time on the Mara was memorable - Dennis made sure we saw all the 'big 5', including a rare sighting of a Black Rhino, in one day, then followed it up with a new lion kill on the last morning, with a pride of lions eating a buffalo. He was good at finding things, using the radio, and getting us into great viewing positions. A truly memorable few days. The campsite was fine for a few nights - comfortable beds, decent food, and close to the park. Overall, a great experience, and if I get to Kenya again, I'll definitely use Karibou again. Thanks!
