Amazing experience 5 day trip
We embarked on the incredible 5-day journey through Masai Mara, Nakuru, and Naivasha, and it surpassed all our expectations. Our guide, Castro, was not just an exceptional driver but also a remarkable wildlife spotter. Thanks to his expertise, we had the privilege of witnessing the entire Big Five, and even more astonishing wildlife moments that we could have ever imagined, all framed in amazing landscape.
In Masai Mara, we had the rare opportunity to see leopards twice, once even witnessing one eating an antelope high up in a tree. We encountered cheetahs, numerous lion families with adorable cubs, graceful giraffes, majestic elephants, and countless zebras, among other remarkable creatures - more than we ever dreamed of.
The trips to Nakuru and Naivasha were enchanting, with the highlight being the safari bike ride at Hell's Gate - an absolutely magical experience.
A heartfelt thank you to our fantastic guide, Castro, who not only ensured our safety and comfort but also went out of his way to make this trip memorable. Don't hesitate for a second; book this tour for an unforgettable adventure

Amazing! Must try once in a life experience!
We had great communication with Karibu Safaris from the beginning to the end of the trip. We were able to keep our luggage at their office before the journey as we had one luggage which was big. Amazing meals all throughout the trip and Mark, our guide was the best! He knew where to spot the animals and we got to see the big 5. I recommend this tour for everyone!

Karibu Safaris gave us an excellent adventure on safari.
Communication with Robert in the office was very good when booking the safari. When we arrived in Nairobi everything was as we had agreed. Our driver and guide was Aroni. He drove us around for the five days we were on safari. Aroni's knowledge about the animals we were seeing was excellent and he made sure that we saw the Big 5. He was always punctual and asked us what our preferences were every day. We had an incredible time and I would thoroughly recommend Karibu Safaris and particularly Aroni. I had upgraded the accommodation to medium level in discussion with Robert before the trip which worked well for our group. We had no problems with the food.

Aroni - Very professional, smooth experience
Good experience throughout. Aroni was very knowledgeable about Kenya, it's people and it's wildlife. He was happy to help, and organised everything to ensure a smooth experience.
We had a great few days, saw all of the Big 5 on the safari and also saw lots of Kenya when driving between the parks.

Safari your with Aruni from Karibu
We booked a five day jeep safari of the Maasai Mara and some other local parks with Karibu Safari Tours.
After being collected from the airport and taken to Karibu's office in Nairobi, we were introduced to our guide, Aruni.
After some initial discussion and clarification of the accommodation that had been booked with Karibu we were on our way.
Aruni was very knowledgeable of the animals and their habitats, providing interesting insight as we travelled around each of the parks. Aruni was also well acquainted with the most likely places to find the big five, managing to show us four of the big five in action on the first day of safari and the fifth the next day, whilst also showing us many other animals each day.
We stayed in a tented camp in the Maasai Mara, close to the Maasai village which was also interesting. We booked to stay in a tented resort as this felt in keeping with the overall experience, however even the medium level of resort proved to be rather basic. This is not a critism of the resort as the standards seeme to be consistent. However, if you are more focused on the comfort rather than the authenticity of accommodation, a lodge may be a more appropriate choice.
The whole safari was a complete success thanks to Aruni, who proved to be an expert guide.
I throughly recommend both our tour operator, Kalibu, and our safari guide Aroni.
Thank you.

Very good budget option
We book a shared 3 Day tour to Amboseli but ended up being only two people in the tour. Everything was very nice and we could see lots of animals, mainly elephants! We stayed in the Manjaro tented camp that was very good, with friendly people and very good food and we even got some giraffes visiting the camp :-)

A dream Safari experience!
Everything about the safari was simply perfect. Aroni is a very kind and a knowledgeable person. He strived to show us all the animals up close and he delivered on it. We saw the Big 5 up close! The co-ordination, the punctuality, Information about the places were commendable. He also went the extra mile and arranged for a cake as we were celebrating my wife's birthday on the safari. All in all, the safari experience far exceeded my expectations.
