What they sell

Africa is one of Audley's flagship regions. Featured gorilla itineraries currently route via Rwanda's Volcanoes National Park at £6,800 pp for 4 nights.

Your hook

Audley currently routes most gorilla treks via Rwanda — your Bwindi 4-day saves $1,200/pax they can pass to clients. Their head of East Africa is Sarah Faith.

Don'ts

Audley specifies 'tailor-made' everywhere — avoid the word 'package'. Don't pitch group departures; they sell private.

Sound familiar?

You can run a world-class safari. But you're spending 30% of your time looking for the right US and UK agents to sell to.

Most Ugandan operators do this the hard way. You search LinkedIn until your hands cramp, paying $99/month for Sales Navigator. You message agents who've moved companies. You get ghosted because your email landed in spam — or because your pitch sounded like every other operator's.

The truth: there are roughly 2,400 US, UK, and German travel agencies that already sell East Africa. You don't need 100,000 random contacts. You need the right 2,400 — with verified emails, decision-maker names, and the context that lets you walk in already knowing what they sell.

That's what Karibu does. Nothing else.

Inside Karibu

How you go from blank inbox to booked meetings in 14 days

  1. 1
    Tell us who you’re trying to reach.
    2 minutes

    We ask 5 questions about your ideal travel agents: which countries, what type of trips they sell, what size of agency. That becomes your ideal-customer profile.

  2. 2
    We deliver your first 25 contacts in 24 hours.
    Done for you

    Hand-verified by our team in Kampala. Real names, real emails, real LinkedIn profiles. Every contact passes 3 quality checks before it hits your dashboard.

  3. 3
    Get an AI intel brief on every agent.
    Instant

    Before you write a word, Karibu reads the agent’s website, recent posts, and review history. You get a one-page brief: what they sell, who decides, what hooks they’ll respond to, what to avoid. Every claim cites a source — no AI hallucinations.

  4. 4
    Draft personalized outreach in your voice.
    90 seconds per email

    Click "Draft email" on any contact. Karibu writes the email using the intel brief + your company’s voice samples + your case studies. Edit, send. We track replies via your connected Gmail.

  5. 5
    Karibu auto-pauses when they reply.
    Always

    The moment an agent replies, the sequence stops. You get a WhatsApp notification with the reply + a suggested response. Your pipeline updates automatically.

23+ Ugandan operators are already running outbound on Karibu.

We publish full named case studies as soon as customers say yes. In the meantime — see aggregate numbers from the cohort.

Questions you're probably asking

Is this scraped data? Will I get spam complaints?

No. Every contact is hand-verified by our team in Kampala. We only collect public business contact information from sources where it’s already published. You can mark contacts as "stop contacting" and we honor opt-outs within 24 hours.

Will my emails land in spam?

We’ve engineered Karibu so they don’t. You send from your own Gmail (via OAuth) using sequences capped at 30/day per mailbox. We monitor your sending reputation continuously and pause sends if anything goes wrong. Your domain stays clean.

I’m not a writer. Will the AI emails actually sound like me?

Yes. During onboarding, you paste 3 sample emails you’ve sent that worked. Karibu uses those as voice samples. Every draft sounds like you — and you can edit before sending.

Do US/UK agents actually respond to cold outreach from East Africa?

Yes — when the pitch is specific and the data is good. Our first 23 operators have booked 47 meetings in their first 90 days, with an average reply rate of 14%. The key is the intel brief: you know what to say before you say it.

How long until I see real bookings?

First meetings: 14-30 days. First booking: 60-120 days. This is B2B sales, not Facebook ads. We tell you the truth.

What happens after the 14-day free trial?

You pick the tier that fits — Starter (UGX 380k / $99), Growth (UGX 950k / $249), or Scale (UGX 2.3M / $599). All three are available to every customer; we have no founding-member cap or lock-in. Charge happens on day 14; you can change or cancel anytime before then.

Can I cancel anytime?

Yes. Monthly subscriptions cancel any time, take effect at period end. Annual prepay is non-refundable but if you cancel within the first 30 days of your annual we refund pro-rata.

What if I’m not in Uganda?

Karibu works for any African tour operator selling to US/UK/EU agents. We accept payments from UG, KE, TZ, RW, ZA, NG, GH, and most African countries via Pesapal and Flutterwave. We’re Uganda-primary because that’s where our team is and where we have the deepest relationships — but the platform serves the continent.

Who’s behind Karibu?

Founded in Kampala, 2026. We built Karibu because we watched dozens of incredible Ugandan operators struggle to reach the US/UK agents who would happily sell their trips — agents who couldn’t find them either. We’re fixing that.

Your 25 free contacts are 30 seconds away.

No credit card. No 30-day trial trap. Just sign up, answer 5 questions, and we'll have your first contacts in your inbox within 24 hours.
