Sad safari
Karibu Safaris it's a one-time agency.
Unfortunately we were very disappointed with the safari especially from the guide who was more a driver.
No communication with him except answering yes or no questions.
We were not immersed in the safari with the guide.
We were able to see lions by chance but staying juste 2 minutes juste toi take some pictures.
We couldn't enjoy this moment.
We were embarrassée to Ask each Time toi get Closer to thé animals because he didn't do it naturally.
We chose a private safari 2 days 1 night.
We arrived on the first day at 12:30 at the lodge for lunch and we left only around 3 pm to start the safari.
We would have liked to leave eaelier to enjoy more instead of waiting 2h in the lodge.
The next day we saw very very few animals because we went through the same places as the day before moving away.
We spoke with other travellers who had the opportunité to see from the 1st day to see a lot animals including lepopard crocodiles a lot of lions etc.. They were surprises that WE didn't see all this on the first day.
In conclusion, we have not discovered the Masaï Mara as it's legend says and the people who describe it this is a huge disappointment because we leave with a taste of unfinished.

Thanks for your feedback,
We have received your review/comments about the safari, Kindly tell us your Reference number because we cant seem to find you name in our past clients portfolio in our server. Did you book your safari with us (Karibu Safaris In Kenya)??
If we can know your Reference number, Receipt Number, Safari date and Driver Guide Name then we can look into the matter and see what went wrong.
We are sorry about the experience you had.

I haven't like this tour operator
We booked a five days safari to Masai Mara, Nakuru and Naivasha. The driver , and he didnt take us to see the migration. It happened the 4th of August. Later, a person who was in Masai Mara that day, said me that all tourists were seeing the migration. Instead it, he "sell" us a "walking" to see Mara river. the price (the tip) was 5 dollars. Besides, he was very dangerous driving.

Posted on Aug 12, 2016Hi Izaskun,
Sorry for your experience, i take the time to ask the driver guide who were all in Masai Mara on Day 2 when you had the fullday game drive upto the Mara river am told that the migration crossed for less than an hour while the driver who was carrying you was told on radio that there was a killing on the hillside(lemek area) so he changed directions to try and make it for the kill and after he started driving faster( thats when he was overspeeding to make it on time)and when he arrived at the Mara River the crossing for the day was over and he called a ranger to walk you to the river bank on the lookout area to see the crocs and hippo.
Sorry about what happened and i am personally doing my own investigation and if the driver is found to be on the wrong I will PUNISH him accordingly.
Thanks for your honest feedback

Be careful of little trics.
The maximum number of people in a group is 6. It was shown on the website, and before they picked me, I confirm with them again, I was told we have 6 people.
However, the total number of the group is actually 8+ 1 driver.
I tried to call and email them to give me an explanation . No reply.
The people in the group are very nice, and the driver of the safari is very responsible, no trics at all.
I am just not satisfied with the manager, who responded very fast before you pay, and disappeared after the payment. No matter what happens and how you try to contact, NO REPLY, until I made an complaint to safari booking company.
