Great value for money.
Communication with Karibu was excellent before booking. Our driver was very pleasant and polite. The accommodation is basic, and liked the authentic experience of being amongst the Masia. However we did have flush toilets, showers and excellent food. The management explained that electricity was limited, but this was fine for charging our appliances.
We saw the Big Five and in the park and here there is no difference between a very expensive safari and a basic one - perhaps a more comfortable van, but you spend much of the time standing. Our driver Edward was excellent at finding the right spot for our photographs. Overall, an excellent experience and I would book with Karibu again

Fantastic Budget Safari in Kenya with Arony.
Communications with Karibu were very good and prompt. I did notice that we stayed at a different camp in Mara and different hotel in Nakuru. Not sure if the others in the trip description were better? Especially Nakuru..
The service was good and Arony collected us on time at our accommodation as arranged. From there the fun began. Arony was the most fantastic driver and guide. He really made our trip so enjoyable. Arony drove incredibly well in the very difficult Kenyan traffic and the rough road to Mara and Miti Mingi camp. The camp was comfortable and the game driving and sightings in Mara exceptional. Arony was very knowledgeable and he made sure that we saw all the game that was possible. Navaisha and Nakuru were also good and we had a wonderful game drive in Nakuru seeing black and white Rhino as well as Rothschild giraffe. The CitiMax hotel was very disappointing. The rooms were fine but the dinner was a shocker. In fact 2 of our group had upset stomachs. Also one can't relax anywhere and cant even buy a beer! We also had 8 people in the van which was not ideal. It was only for about 24 hours but when booking the tour it did state maximum of 6. We then continued to Amboseli and Kimana camp. A very long drive but handled incredibly well by Arony. Kimana camp was the best camp. Staff very friendly and food was good. Arony again was a star with the game drives and he was always ready to satisfy our needs. In general a most enjoyable trip. It was definitely was made more enjoyable by Arony who did his job exceptionally well. 10 out of 10. Knowledgable and interactive. We really enjoyed ourselves. Thank you very much Arony.

Visits to the parks where amazing, resorts can be improved, driver where excellent
The content of the safari tour met our expectations and we enjoyed it. The standard of the camps was lower than expected.
Our driver Edward Som was very helpful and had good knowledge on how to find the best spots to view the animals.

Very good
At first I was disappointed because suppose that the company is not a trustable. But after to close communications it appeared that Mr. Robert is a good manager, who has managed the all in a very excellent way. The tour meet my expectation. Everything was done in time and in a full.
Highly recommended tour operator.
