Really recommend it. Great tour and excellent driver Colins
We spent three days and two nights in Masai Mara and everything was amazing.
Our driver Colins was really great. Good driver and he allowed us to see lots of animals (including Leopard and Cheetah) very close.

Excellent
We went for a 4 day Safari (Maasai Mara & Lake Nakuru, mid-range) and it was absolutely amazing. Our driver Raymond helped us in every way and is the best driver. He knows all the best spots to see the animals, knows the local people and other guides, furthermore he is a very safe driver on the highways between Nairobi and the parks. Thanks to Raymond we saw many animals (including the big 5) and we had a unique experience!

Great and Affordable Safari Tour Operator!
What a great company! I walked into the office to see what they had on offer - the next morning I was on my way joining a 5-day budget Safari to Masai Mara, Nakuru, Naivasha, and Hells Gate led by our amazing guide Dan Castro. His talent and experience really showed as he made sure the whole trip went smoothly - and more importantly that we spotted a wide-range of different animals (incl. The Big Five and the wildebeest migration). Dan really went out of his way to make sure we had a front-row seat to the spectacle of Kenyan safari. To give an example: we had a rare sighting of a leopard, saw two lions successfully hunt a zebra and spotted a lion high up in a tree. I feel very lucky and privileged to have seen such sights.
Dan's ability to drive in difficult circumstance also really stood out during the trip as the park provide some challenging terrain. I personally also very much appreciated the music he would play (Dan has excellent taste) during long hauls between different national parks.
Karibu safaris was also really flexible when I wanted to make a change to my booking. I initially booked a 6-day safari, but asked to switch to 5-days during the safari in order to stay with the group (as the others were staying for only 5-days). Dan contacted the office in Nairobi and ensured this was no problem.
Do make sure to bring enough extra cash during the safari, because there are some hidden costs, such as bike rentals, Masai village entry and of course lots and lots of tipping.

Great deal price/quality
Hi,
-Reliability: they delivered as specified in the tour description.
-Paiment: We didn't bring al the cash on the plane for the payment. Because we thought we could get it from an Atm when we landed in Kenia. This was not the case, but they were flexible and let us pay by transfering the total amount
Car: old van type with roof that opens. Broke down 2 times. Definitely a car that has already done alot of safari's.
-Animals: We saw alot of animals including the "big five
-Stay: Manjaru tented camp:Very nice, intimate place that limited the number of people.
Nguli: Awsome viewing points, with animal drinking pools. The rooms and hotel were a bit old fashioned.
Salt lick:Luxery lodge.
Voi lodge:Awsome viewing points, with animal drinking pools. The rooms and hotel were a bit old fashioned
-Conclusion: Great deal of you compare it to others and price/quality whise.

Unforgettable experiences, great adventure in Kenya.
I would like to recommend the company "Karibu Safari in Kenya" which organized a wonderful 5-day private safari for our family. We started our safari in Mombasa and ended it in Nairobi. We visited Tsavo East, Lake Naivasha and Masai Mara and more. Communication with Robert was excellent and the price was affordable. However, we would like to express our greatest thanks to Edward, who was our guide and driver. Edward is a very cultured and friendly man. Thanks to him, we could see the most beautiful animals and landscapes of Kenya. He drove the car very safely both on the roads and in the reserves. Edward showed us at close distance the big five animals and thousands of animals in the great migration in the month of July.
Accommodation and food during the safari was great. It included our vegetarian diet.
Don't hesitate to book your safari with "Karibu Safari in Kenya".
We highly recommend the safari with Edward as a guide. We would like to thank you for an unforgettable holiday.
