Amazing experience with lots of animals.
Our driver Arony did a great job. We saw all of the big five and could take lots of photos.
All of our expectations been exceeded.

Spotted all Big Five on our first day!
We had a very enjoyable time during our 6 day safari tour. Our guide/driver Arony was very professional and experienced, and thanks to him we were one of the lucky ones to spot all the Big Five in one day at the Mara including the elusive leopard and black rhino. We appreciated Arony's wealth of knowledge about the the animals and about his country, we learnt a lot through him. While the drives between the parks can be quite long (our longest day was from Nakuru to Amboseli - 8 hours), he would try his best to get us to the destination in the fastest way while being safe. Tips for future travellers: You can ask to buy extra water on the way out of Nairobi aside from the bottles the company provide during game drives. Kenya can be very hot and dry and it's important to stay hydrated. Drinks are not included in the restaurants/lodgings, and are more expensive once you are in the parks. Make sure you have enough batteries/power banks and memory cards. Not all camps have 24 hour electricity nor sockets in your tents. We took more photos than expected as Arony really made an effort to make sure we get the best angles, and the right moments when the animals are moving. This tour is great for its value, it's budget friendly compared to other operators, but don't expect luxury. All in all, it was a trip of a lifetime, and we hope to be going on more safaris in the future!

All around great three days
I had only three days of a trip to Masai Mara - and looked for something cost effective and found Karibu Safaris online. In the run up, I was grateful for Robert’s fast replies and help with online payment and organising pick up from my hotel. They also kindly babysat my giant suitcase whilst we were in Masai Mara.
And the good experience continued. Our driver and guide got us there quickly and safely and was a great guide when we first went into the park. The accommodation was also super and food throughout was yummy (and healthy). We also spent the whole second day in the park, saw a huge amount of wildlife and decided we didn’t need a third trip after such two successful outings.
I’m especially grateful that the team got us back to Nairobi in time for my onward journey - and got me safely all the way to my airport hotel.
I would definitely use Karibu Safaris again if and when I am back and can recommend them wholeheartedly!

Raymond was an absolutely joy to be around and made my whole trip better.
The tour was expensive since I only did the 3 day Masai Mara. I spent the first day getting there and only had a 2 hour afternoon drive. Then 2nd day was a full day but the last day was a morning drive similar to the first day. Besides the itinerary the driver/guide was absolutely amazing. The reason why this isn’t 3/4 stars is because of raymond. He was an absolutely beast at finding things and I was missing a cheetah and leopard from my safaris and he found them both. We saw 2leopards hunting and it was amazing. Raymond was not only fun to be around but such an amazing person! Really wish he told me it was his birthday.
Overall I think Masai Mara is overrated but Raymond was so amazing that it made the experience awesome

Excellent safari
I was very satisfied with the safari tour. In Masai Mara we were able to see lions, buffaloes, leopards and elephants and all kinds of animals. In addition, the explanation of the driver was also detailed, answered every question. The accommodation and meals were also good, and it was very nice to have a free pick-up to the airport for free.
