Incredible views, great people, slightly disorganised.
The tour of the Masai Mara, Nakuru, Naivasha, and Hells Gate was incredible. We managed to see the big five and enjoyed a lot of great lodges/hotels along the way. The tour was slightly rearranged and disorganised but we still managed to see everything. Between our tour guides - Edward, Joffrey, and Moses - we were given really great information and help throughout the trip to ensure we managed to see everything. In terms of value for money - there is a lot of driving around which may feel like the fees paid can be somewhat too much. But as one realises the fees are predominately for the really great places you stay along the trip. One recommendation I do have is to try to get the jeeps instead of the vans (these make a massive difference to viewing and travel). Also, to take the bicycle ride at Hells Gate as opposed to driving. The long hours in the car can really add up so getting out and stretching your legs is very much needed.

Highly recommended tour operator to climb Mt Kenya
We climbed Mt Kenya with Karibu Safari. We ended up with a group of 3 which was very personal. Sam, the guide, was excellent and knew exactely what we needed (also in terms of pace during the climb) and the rest of the crew (Kelvin, Duncan, Francis, David, and of course Maron the cook) made sure we were always comfortable and taken care of. It’s probably one of the better operators and at great value for money.

The best Safari we have been on
The tour was fantastic and adventurous .
Raymond was an excellent guide friendly kind and gave us value for money. Our experience with him was thrilling at all times and something unique at every turn.
We highly recommend this company as the staff were courteous and friendly. At the camp William was very professional and friendly. The provisions were safe and food was good. We were lucky to see the 5 Big on day one itself. Great job hats off to your team. Will surely visit again some time, as once is not enough

Amazing
We didn't even know the country and we were afraid to trust the agency because we didn't even know what it was going to be like, but it is 100% recommended, they are very professional, our guide Raymond was incredible and helped us find all the animals and even brought us closer to them, It was the best safari experience I could have had.

Nice, accommodating, knowledgeable
I had a really good time. Masai Mara and Amboseli are stunning and truly hard to describe in words.
The hotels were all nice.
The drivers, Raymond and Kevin, were both very accommodating, kind, and knowledgeable. I would recommend them!

Memorable experience
We did a 7 day safari tour. Our luggage got lost on the way there by plane, which is why we started a day later than planned. Our guide Castro was very helpful and rearranged everything at short notice, for which we are very grateful. Our luggage was also brought to the camp by the Karibu Safari Team on day 2 of the safari. Our highlight was the game drive through Maasai Mara. Thanks to Castro, we were able to see and experience the Big Five up close. We were also impressed by the Mantjaro Camp at Amboseli National Park. With a view of Kilimanjaro, we had great conversations with the locals and giraffes walked around the camp. We can heartily recommend a safari in beautiful Kenya with Karibu Safaris.

Raymond was really nice and friendly with us ! I will start again with him, no hesitation.
Our tour operator, Raymond, was great, he tried his best to show us all the animals from the top 5 (rhinoceros, lion, leopard, hippopotame and buffalo). Plus, he’s a good driver.
If you are overthinking about the good value of the trip, stop it, and do it, it was amazing, you have to try !
Service is perfect, whether it is for food, comfort or driving.
