A memorable Holiday with Karibu & Raymond
We booked a 4-day Mid-Range Safari for Masai Mara and Nakuru through Karibu Safaris in Kenya. From initial mail for booking till the conclusion they were perfect in their responses and commitments. A well organised trip with a well experienced guide it was a memorable holiday we had in Kenya. Thank you Karibu and a special thanks to our friend and guide Raymond. (Raymod Ringtone centano mishe mishe is my daughter's favourite song now.)

CHOOSE THIS COMPANY! Here’s why:
Short version: Best guides, best prices, best equipment, best food!
Long version: When you book a 4-day Mount Kenya tour, you’re excited to focus on the trail/views/camping. This company took care of all the logistics which allowed us to fully engage in our experience. They met us at our Airbnb in Nairobi and transported us to Nanyuki via matatu. They helped guide us through equipment rental with a quality vendor near the gate- everything they recommended we rent ended up being much appreciated (especially trekking poles!!!). We were very comfortable with our 4 team members. Primarily we were lead by Jimmy, who was very in tune to matching our social energy- chatting for hours at times, but being in comfortable silence on the hard legs. He respected our physical boundaries, yet encouraged us to challenge ourselves. At a point where one of us thought we couldn’t continue, the team didn’t hesitate to divide and conquer in order to cater to my brother and I’s differing needs (but luckily that didn’t have to happen!). The rest of the staff was prepared to carry all our stuff for us throughout the whole trek, and each day had a tent and (SO MUCH) hot tea ready for us when we arrived at the next camp. We had 3 hot meals per day that were unique and true to local Kenyan cuisine, compared to others we saw on the trail with bagged lunch.
The level of service we received can NOT be beat at such a price. Huge thanks again to Kelvin, Ian, Maron, and Jimmy. Happy hiking :)

Very friendly and helpful
The hike to mount kenya was a great experience. I was guided by Kevin, who knows a lot about the animals and plants that we saw on the way. He and the chef Ferderik made sure that I had a great experience. They helped me renting some gear that was missing and the food they cooked was really good. The different landscapes you pass by are beautiful and i recommend sleeping in a tent over a dorm, as you have much more privacy.

Amazing Trip at Competitive price
This was my first safari experience with a Tour operator. It was for 7 days. Our driver for first five days was Mr. Raymond. He was really really good. He drove the whole day in Masai Mara National Park and took great efforts in making sure we saw all animals and birds. He took us as close as possible near the animals to ensure we had a good look at them. At the end of the trip, I felt that it is the driver's skill and professionalism that determines the safari experience. It would have been even more amazing if he had been for the entire trip. I highly recommend Raymond in Karibu Safari for the trip of your lifetime.

Trip of a lifetime
My friends and I (group of 4) went on a private safari with Mr Castro. We had an amazing time and Castro catered for all our needs and got us nice and close to the animals and achieved in seeing all of the Big 5. Highly recommend.
