My most memorable birthday trip and a tick off my bucket-list!!!
I highly recommend "Karibu Safaris In Kenya Company" simply because their package price is reasonable. The team was lead by Robert, who was very welcoming and accomodating with all of my queries before booking. Everything was clear before I set off. I found out that Karibu has much more to offer during my 5-day trip. Their drivers were very knowledgeable of the areas where specific animals stay inside the Maasai Mara reserve, so I was very happy that I was able to see all the Big Five. My drivers were Evans and Isaac (Maasai Mara), and Hatim who drove me to Lake Nakuru ( i think i spelled his name wrong) the guy I gave a bottle of red wine (it was not full anymore because it was what i had for my birthday). Also many thanks to the last driver (i didnt catch his name) who dropped me at the Karibu office to catch my taxi to the airport. I am specially very grateful to Evans and Robert for going out of the way to help me get a new SD memory card for my camera. I didn't realize i forgot mine only to find out when i landed in nairobi. It was too early and stores were closed at the time when we set off for Maasai Mara. I had no pictures on my first day of game drive, but Evans managed to get Robert to buy me one in Nairobi and have it sent to Maasai Mara via another driver the following day. I will forever be thankful and will never forget your kindness. Thank you also to Peter, my driver from nairobi to airport, for allowing me to stop by a souvenir shop and the driver (again i forgot his name) who picked me up from the airport. All drivers were very careful and attentive to our needs (including toilet breaks). Big thanks to all for driving us safely to and from the different places. You guys rock!!! Driving is not easy if it means doing it for more than 8 hrs straight in a day. I have also met so many people from different walks of life through the Karibu package option i chose, where i joined a group of other solo Travellers. I made many new friends with this and it is an experience i will forever treasure. I hope to be back and see more of Kenya!

Amazing experience!!!
Ernest from Worldwide Safaris Tanzania provided us with an amazing 7-day African safari experience. The trip was well organised and safe. We started at Arusha and then headed to Tarangire National Park, Ngorongoro National Park, Manyara Lake and Serengeti National Park. All these parks have amazing views with so many different wildlife to see. The guide, Danford also made our trip wonderful with his vast knowledge and sense of humour. He was also very patient and accommodating. Some of the highlights are the wildebeest migration across the Mara River in Nothern Serengeti, lion hunt, leopard feasting on a tree and the beautiful views.
The accommodation provided during the trip was perfect. The lodges including the tented ones in the parks are very comfortable, clean, with friendly staff and have excellent food. This has got to be one of the best life experience thanks to the well planned trip. We will definitely come back.

Very efficient tour operators which can negotiate a very good package for reasonable price.
Very efficient tour operators with prompt communications. We were impressed with the flawless travel arrangements for 30 of us including our families from Nairobi to Malindi (Watamo) on a Train and bus with a reasonable and value for money package of services, and excellent hospitality at the Turtle bay Beach.
Thank You !

Amazing Safari Experience!
We had no idea what to expect on our safari, having never done anything like this before, but we were completely overwhelmed with what a great experience it was! From the get go, Amelia was incredibly responsive and helpful, putting together a great itinerary and making changes as needed for us when our dates shifted. The places and activities she put together for our trip were amazing. As for our guide, Jaco, I cannot say enough good things about him. It is hard to imagine there is anyone out there as knowledgeable about the wildlife, birds and plants we encountered on safari. We learned so much from him, it was really unbelievable! Also, the meals he prepared for us were delicious. When we had a hard time spotting elephants, he said he wouldn't leave Kruger until we found some, and we did! His enthusiasm and dedication really helped make the experience a once in a lifetime opportunity. I would recommend Red Africa to anyone considering a safari and I hope I get the chance to book with them again soon!

Another Trip of a lifetime....my 5th to Africa and my 3rd trip back to Tanzania and Nipeleke Afrika
I have traveled on Safari three times with Abraham and Karashi. Nipeleke Afrika is a wonderful way to explore and experience the National Parks of Tanzania. My love of the Serengeti is unexplained. Traveling with Abraham teaches me the greatness of the Serengeti and the other parks. He is beyond knowledgeable about the animals, the birds and the grassland. He speaks many different languages including talking to the lions. Going back to Tanzania is like going to visit relatives on the other side of the world. Abraham, Karashi and their families are so welcoming and fun to be with, it is hard to get on the plane and head back to my home.
Staying in tents is a must! The camp crew are delightful young men and very hard at work keeping up with all the clients, taking care of their every needs and feeding the clients very tasty food. A bucket shower should be on everyone's list.
Safari with Nipeleke Afrika is definitely "Out Of Africa!" I am ready to go back soon!

Awesome and Lucky First Safari Experience with Flash!!
We have just finished a 6-days safari in Tanzania and luckily we saw that big five in this relatively short trip (3 cheetahs!!! I wished I had stayed longer...).
We contacted several operators when we were planning the safari trip and Magda and her team were always there to answer your email promptly and provided detailed plans. She also came with Edward to visit us in person on the first and last day of the safari. This shows how they appreciate everyone who joins their trip. We didn't go for luxurious accommodations but we were all happy with the arrangements which we think are the best out of our budget! I would also like to thank the experienced safari guide Loi who found a lot of animals during the game drive, kept the vehicle tidy and clean, and shared the stories of Massai and other Africa cultures everyday when we were back to the lodge.
For everyone who is interested in safari, Flash is highly recommended!
