Great value for money with the best driver (Edward)
We had an amazing time with Edward, our driver on.a 7 day Safari to Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru, Lake Naivasha and Ambosseli (this last stop actually we did with another driver due to some last minute change from the company.
Edward was great in all aspects, amazing driver, he spotted animals very well and was always kind, helpful and super punctual.
The hotells were really good, with proper food (even for vegetarians, we were surprised how well we could eat (with the exception of rhe lunchboxes

My wife cried (tears of joy)
There are not enough words to express our gratitude. It was an amazing experience.
We were fortunate to see the big five thanks to our driver and guide Raymond who is spectacularly good at being at the right location at the right time.
The punctuality was five star.
The food was awesome.
The camp was more than we expected and the host of the camp (William) was so hospitable and kind to us.
Also from the beginning the contact person for the tour was Robert and he was very helpful with all my questions and replying quick to my emails.
I will definitely recommend Karibu safari.
My recommendations:
- More clarity should be made about the drop off in Nairobi to avoid tourist in unwanted situation.
- If there are any entry fees like masai village it should be communicated.

Too good to be true
The best safari ever. So increible value for money. We weren't expecting this kind of guidance, accommodation and so wonderful places and animal-watching. It has been one of the best experiences in my whole life. Aruni, out driver and tour guide, was extremely helpful and kind. We will recommend it to everyone.

Best value budget trip ever
We had a brilliant experience with Karibu Safaris from start to finish. The booking agent Robert was responsive and very helpful, even organising a cake to be sent from Nairobi for my girlfriends birthday. All the accommodation surpassed what you’d expect from a budget trip. The game drives were excellent and the food varied giving you a nice insight into Kenyan food. Our driver, Kennedy was so nice and very helpful and went out of his way to ensure everyone was smiling and happy all the time. He really made our trip as well as all the other Kenyan people that ran the hotels and activities we did along the way. In summary, it was a spectacular trip that was better in every way than our expectations and we’d recommend it to anyone. Thanks Karibu!

Amazing safari with the best driver, Aruni!
It seemed impossible that such an affordable safari could happen with no issue. I will always recommend Karibu Safaris, everything was perfect. Even our driver and guide Aruni was unbeatable.
I will forever remain grateful.

Amazing tour and Aruni was the BEST guide!
This was my first safari and trip to Kenya and it was amazing! The value of this trip is phenomenal considering you get 3 meals a day, accommodation, transportation, and an experienced, knowledgeable guide. The accommodations are at an eco camp, but they were very well maintained and offered great service. Aruni, our guide, was fantastic and we were able to see all the animals we came for including the Big 5. There were even some optional additional tours offered that were also amazing. Overall, great experience and would highly recommend.

Amazing Safari! Hands down, would do it again!
Literally did not have to think about anything. Everything was taken care of and was so easy. All you have to do is show up. They picked us up at our hotel in Nairobi. Our tour guide and driver, Aruni was amazing. He was very knowledgeable about the animals and could spot them from meters away. He knew how to position the van so we could have a really great view of the animals. Accommodations were budget friendly and to be expected. We went on a safari to see animals, and we got to see a lot of them plus some baby animals as well.

A trip of a lifetime!
We chose Karibu Safaris in Kenya because a friend recommended it and it was the best decision ever! They made a personalized safari for us (Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru, Amboseli, Tsavo East & Tsavo West) plus they organized our drop off in Diani. Communication was very easy and quick since the beginning and everything went smoothly.
The trip was simply amazing! We managed to see a lot of animals (including the big Five and 2 hunts!). Edward, our safari guide, was excellent and made our trip memorable, always sharing his knowledge, answering all our questions and going the extra mile so we could see everything. He’s very passionate about his job and has a charming personality. We couldn’t be luckier!
We have just finished our trip and we already want to repeat! Thanks for everything Edward!

An amazing Safari experience with the best guide!!
We just finished an 8 days private safari tour for 2 with Edward and it was the best time ever! We chose Karibu because a friend recommended it and it didn’t disappoint. Our route was Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru, Amboseli, Tsavo West and Tsavo East, which gave us the opportunity to see different landscapes (every park was different than the others) and a huge variety of animals.
Our guide Edward was exceptional, always answering our questions (he had all the answers!) and explaining everything. He’s truly passionate about what he does and we consider him to be a good luck charm as we managed to see the Big Five on multiple occasions.
The value for money was good as we experienced different type of accommodations (from tented camps to luxurious hotels).
Highly recommended and wouldn’t doubt to book it again.
And a big shout out to Edward, thanks for everything!!
