Really nice Safari!!
We were driving with Raymond, and it was so nice! We saw all the big five.
Big value for money! We went on the budget tour, but it was so Nice. We went on a 4 day Safari, starting in Masai Mara, and then the last day in Lake Nakuru!! Lake Nakuru is a MUST!!! Beautiful rhinos, and totally diffrent to Masai Mara

3 days Masai Mara trip with Raymond :)
From the booking process to the actual tour, I am so grateful for this tour company.
Raymond was exceptional tour guide, constantly communicating with other guides to know the best location in Masai Mara to spot the animals.
We saw Cheetahs (attempting to hunt), many lions (eating other animals), hyena, hippo, and many more!
Big thank you to Raymond for his extra effort. He also took us to Lake Naivasha on the way back to Nairobi which wasn’t in our initial plan and it was beyond expectation!
One thing if I were to mention a constructive feedback is about the miscommunication around the payment.
Company confirmed that I can pay the amount in credit card on the day of tour. However we were told to go to ATM to withdraw cash (around 1000 usd)..

Just absolutely fantastic.
Best safari trip I’ve ever been to. Raymond was patient, kind and made you get the most of the trip. We saw everything we wanted and even more. He took good care of us. Couldn’t have asked for any better guide than him. Recommend him the most! 11/10!

Always ahead.
I was impressed by the way I was treated by Karibu Team. Specially by Edward Lore, my Guide. Extremely patient and brought me to all the possible spots in the park within 24h . His hi level knowledge of English helped a lot our conversation. I will go back and do a longer safari with Karibu next time.

On Time. Reliable. Knowledgeable. Affordable.
Late May 2022 - 4 day 3 night Safari in x3 days Masai Mara and x1 Lake Nakuru (roughly $380 USD/person pre-tip and extra expenses). Our driver/guide, Edward, was a very nice and soft spoken gentleman. He drove our 4x4 Combi-Style van very well inside the city and in the field. He was an excellent animal spotter (we found 4 of the big 5 animals on a single day at Masai Mara!). Overall, the food throughout the whole trip was delicious (warm, tasty, and clean). The stay at Masai Mara was Glamping style, which was nice. The weather was a bit warm at times, but this was no issue with a quick shower and just opening up a window. For the price and what you got, this package was very nice and would definitely recommend. We had the option to visit the actual Masai Mara Village as well, where the chief's son suggested a $20 USD/person fee to enter. Like anything in Africa, things are negotiable (so we negotiated this price down). Once in the village, we witnessed a dance, visited some of the houses, bought some souvenirs, and visited a local school. People everywhere in Kenya are nice, but some are very persistent in getting you to buy their stuff at their price. I appreciated our guides efforts to warn/guide us on this, and we successfully deflected/negotiated prices for much/all of our trips throughout.
In conclusion, great communication, service, value for money, reliability, tour and food - we would recommend Karibu Safari!
Don't forget to haggle/negotiate prices, always and everywhere.
