Nice 5 days and 4 nights with Karibu Safaris in Kenya
Tour operator Karibu Safaris is very reliable, punctual and communicative. He offered us a very favorable price for a trip of 5 days and 4 nights for 2 people. We had two guides, in Massai Mara one and Nakuru, Naivasha and Hells gate the other. Both guides were very communicative, punctual, great drivers and tried to do their best for us, even beyond the schedule, for which we are both very grateful and would definitely recommend them to other tourists.

Wonderful Safari for the price
We had a great 3 day safari with our guide Castro. Castro was great at spotting and promptly getting us great views of the animals. He even negotiated with park rangers to get us closer to a group of lions. We were able to see pretty much all the animals we wanted to except a leopard. We saw lions, cheetahs, a rhino, giraffes, elephants, gazelles, antelopes, warthogs, wildebeests, buffalos and more. Castro was very helpful and knowledgable. He was also helpful in coordinating drop off after the safari. Because of the recent flooding, many of the roads outside of the park were decimated. Castro was able to expertly navigate the roads. The communication was all done via whatsapp, which I think is typical for Kenya. Communication was very clear and we were able to get free pick up and drop off before and after the safari to our lodging in Nairobi. The accommodation was about as expected for a budget safari. The rooms were tidy with a double bed and twin bed with mosquito nets. The bathroom had a toilet and shower with hot water. No bells and whistles but it got the job done. The food was excellent. We had typical Kenyan food: rice, chapatis, lentils, beef, chicken, etc. Beer and soda were available for purchase for about 1 USD each. We had a great group of 8 with people from all over the world. Half the fun of the safari was getting to know the others in our group and learning more about their homes and where they've travelled.
Great and reliable tour operator
We had a great experience safari with Collins, our guide and driver for the whole trip to Masai Mara. Collins was always ready to help and to do his best to make our journey truly memorable. We hope to come back soon to have another tour with Collins. Thanks again

Arony was perfect for our safari!
We arrived to Nairobi later than planned, but Arony made our short time amazing. We saw tons of wildlife including lions, a rhinoceros, giraffes, Cape buffalo, and ostriches. It couldn’t have been more fun!
Arony was excellent, polite and very courteous.
Our tour was very informative and our tour guide was courteous and fun. A highlight was seeing a pride of lions and the kangaroos.
Karibu Safaris offers well-organized safaris with expert guides
I recently went on a 6-day safari in Kenya with Karibu Safaris, and it was a memorable experience. The staff was professional and welcoming, and the trip was well-organized. Our guides Kevin and Steve were knowledgeable, and we saw an incredible variety of wildlife in various locations in Madai Maara, Naivasha, Salt Lick and Amboselli. The accommodations were comfortable and offered stunning views. I highly recommend Karibu Safaris for an unforgettable safari experience.

Experienced, high-quality and good value for money tour operator.
The experience I had with Karibu Safari was overall satisfying. From the beginning it is easy to communicate with them and their response is always prompt and clear. The tour is well-organized and worry-free with everything being taken care of. We booked a private 6-day safari tour starting from Nairobi and ending in Mombasa. The tour meets our expectations and the accommodation provided is pretty good in terms of comfort and safety. The guides are ok. They did a good job looking after us but we felt a bit awkward when one of them tried to ask for the watch and binoculars from us. Some roads are in really bad condition but they tried hard to make it less uncomfortable for us.
I would recommend taking the tour with them. They are experienced, reliable and meet the general expectations of a high-quality safari tour.
