Great safari trip with a good price
We asked Karibu to arrange a safari trip from Nairobi to Diani beach in four days and they really did a great job. Our guide David was such a nice man. And the lodges we stayed in were amazing. The first one we slept in tents in AA Amboseli Lodge. The second (Ngulia Lodge) had an outstanding view and elephants came enjoying the waterpool just in front of the hotel. We also saw a leopard while having a glass of wine. And there were Baboons al over the place. The third (Voi lodge) also was amazing with a great view and a watch basement from which you can spot elephants drinking on just 1 metre distance. We were really amazed by these lodges because we thought we would have more basic logees. We went to Amboseli park and Tsavo East and West. They are nice parks and we saw the big five. But you won't trip over the animals. I have done more safari trips in which I saw a lot more. But its nature you can't direct animals. I have been told that if you want to see more animals you should go to Masai Mara, but for us this park was too far north, because we wanted to end in Diani. I would highly recommend Karibu safari. A specially because you get great value for your money. Way cheaper than many other safari organizations. We were with three women and five children (ages 11 till 15) and we all sat in one jeep (landcruiser). Really great for we just really had a private safari trip this way. David is a great guide and really tries to make the best of it in searching and searching for the animals you would like to see.

Aroni was very responsive to all requests, knowlegable, organised, polite and with clear english.
The trip exceeded our expectations. We saw more than we expected, we done more than we expected. The busy schedule was all taken care by our tour guide Aroni so we could let everything go and enjoy moments.

Great life experience, best people.
We really enjoyed our Safari trip with karibu, especially thanks to our tour guide, Edward, who has been with us for a whole week, bringing us through different parks and areas, always keeping a smile and explaining us many things.
We have been in naivasha and Nakuru lake, Masai mara and amboseli. We saw lots flora and fauna thanks to him, met amazing people in the camping he brought us and in Masai Village where we could learn traditions and costumes of different tribes.
We highly recommend Karibu Safari and Edward. Simple and easy organizations, great locations and people through this life experience. Hope to see you again. Asante Sana!

Efficient budget solution
We took a 7 day Kenya Safari, which was overall a good value. Camping in Amboseli and numerous animals were a highlight of our trip to Kenya. We added a hike to Mt Longonot to our safari, which was a good decision. Nontheless we have a couple of critics. Castro, our guide, was ok, his driving a little too much for us, specially on the main roads. His knowledge of animals would need a little upgrade. For a visit of the final park we were transfered to another group, which brought us another guide, Jackson. We have only compliments for him, really great and experienced guide. Critics for Karibu Safaris is that they promised on webpage water for the whole week, when on the 5th day Castro said there is no more water. Also the change in the program wasn't communicated with us, so we did the big hike to Mt Longonot directly when arriving to Kenya, without any sleep, unlike on the agreed 3rd day. Nontheless safari in Kenya was one of the most fulfilling experiences ever and a must if you are there!

Nice trip for an excellent value for money
We spent 3 days in Amboseli, and it was a really nice experience for us!
The guide, James, was cheerful and has a good knowledge of the animals and the park.
The Karibu’s staff was very helpful and reactive when we had questions. They also took us to do the PCR test as we had to go back to France.
We highly recommend Karibu Safari for your next Safari trip !
