Reviews
Professional and trustworthy
The whole process from booking through payment and the trip itself was excellent. Our guide John was very competent and helpful, and had everything under control even though different people had different schedules. We thoroughly enjoyed our trip and would recommend Karibu to anyone.
Very enjoyable and educational
I made this trip with my brother.
Our driver Maxwell was great. He really made the effort to show us all the interesting things. He knew a lot and explained a lot. The cars are slightly old and can be at times crowded, but you'd be surprised how well Maxwell can handle it.
The transfer from the hotel and airport was smooth. My brother's luggage was delayed but the company brought it to us. We also had a some confusion at the end of the trip for transfer to Mombasa, but they made very good effort to correct it. I would suggest that you pay close attention to the transfers yourself.
Overall, I think this is a great option if you want affordable but great safari.

Friendly chaps. Very helpful and informative. Generally awesome go to guys for any info.
Robert, our agent, was a saviour in our case and a major help with respect to all the travel arangements going above and beyond to make sure that our trip was a wonderful one. The lunch place on our way to Maasai Mara could do with an overhaul. Tented camp was very good but showers were too rusty. The staff there were a joy. The safari was superb. Food at the camp was a super treat especially the chapati

Amazing experience for wildlife
We recently enjoyed an amazing 5 day safari with Natural World and will recommend this to every one out there, as this was a great experience.
The team was lead by Robert, was very welcoming and accommodating with all of our queries before booking.
He answered all our emails promptly and provided information to support us through out the trip.
We booked a tented camp .The tents were kept very clean and everything was good because of the people around that made it comfortable for us.Simple yet great food.
Our driver / guide Fransis was great, he is competent and helpful.
He is knowledgeable on animals and their specific locations-habitat, inside the Maasai Mara reserve, so we were very happy to have seen all the Big Five.
This was one of our dream holidays and Natural world made sure we loved every minute.
Robert from Karibu can make your trip interesting in a country as Kenya.
I highly recommend "Karibu Safaris simply because their package price is quite reasonable.
Overall it was a great experience, and good value for money.I would use Karibu safaris if I was back in Kenya and would recommend them to my friends.

Well organized, comfortable camping and passionate staff
Robert heads up the Nairobi office and was extremely responsive over email. I had very specific questions around price and timing and he was able to accommodate. While in safari I was able to reach Robert on Whatsapp as while the driver is 110% focused on giving you the best game drive, he may not know every individuals' travel itinerary. My driver, Aruuni, was a very no nonsense expert and skipped the small stuff to focus on unforgettable memories of rare jaw-dropping animals. He has a lot of animal and Kenyan knowledge. He did an amazing job avoiding traffic and keeping the ride as non bumpy as possible (difficult on remote Kenyan roads). I was well briefed on the weather changes, variations in types of accommodation (basic hotels versus camping and what linens were or weren't needed). Upon return another staff member, Dan, was key to helping me enjoy my remaining time in Nairobi and set up drivers, day tour suggestions and transfers. Karibu also organized Tanzanian safaris, through Tanzanian company and communication between all three parties (myself, Karibu, TZ company) could have been improved. Robert did his best but it's always hard when he is responsible for my transaction but has little influence on how the Tanzanian part of the purchase plays out (solely managed by TZ company).
