Well planned! Great experience
5/5

I had an amazing experience with Phine Safaris! We booked a 5-day tour visiting Amboseli, Nakuru, and Masai Mara (+an extra stop to Lake Naivasha). From start to finish, everything was perfectly organized. The communication throughout the booking process was clear and timely, and the staff (especially Perpetua) was always friendly and ready to assist with any questions I had.

The safari tour itself was well-planned, giving us the chance to see the BIG5 and even the “Ugly 5.” We truly appreciated the flexibility and expertise of our guide-driver, who made sure we had the best experience possible.

Overall, I highly recommend Phine Safaris to anyone looking for a reliable, well-organized safari experience throughout Kenya. It was a trip of a lifetime, and Phine Safaris made it unforgettable!

Amazing weekend in Masai Mara
5/5

We had a perfect 3 day, 2 night fly-in safari in the Mara in the first weekend of November. We was picked up at our hotel Friday morning, went straight to Wilson and within 2,5 hours of departing the hotel we were in the Mara. Once there we had a blast. The Mara Engai Wilderness Lodge was wonderful and had the most amazing view over the Mara. Wildlife was abundant as always with us observing a lion honeymoon within 30 minutes of leaving the airstrip on the way to the lodge. Our guide James had extensive knowledge of the Mara Triangle and knew where to go to find the good stuff. He also managed to spot a Black Rhino family from multiple kilometers away. The grazer baby boom was at the beginning it seemed and we saw a lot of young, from topis, impalas, zebras, buffalos, hippos, elephants as well as hyenas and of course several lion couples on their honeymoon. The weather was great with plenty of sun and we experienced no rain, just saw a couple of showers in the distance. Hilda from Phine Safaris did a splendid job in organizing it all, and quickly adjusted the itinerary to meet our every need. Everything went smoothly and according to plan. Highly recommended!

5/5

Phine Safaris were excellent from the start , put together a personalised private safari and beach holiday at reasonable price . Very prompt and responsive communication from Kelvin who looked after me throughout. I had a great guide and driver Moses, very knowledgeable and experienced. I visited 4 park areas , each different and special . The accommodation was great in every park, and amazing food to choose from, with excellent staff . I took train myself to Diani beach , met there for transport to hotel . Baobab resort was superb , the beach is stunning , again amazing food and staff . As my flight from Nairobi changed Kelvin was very responsive to change time of transport to airport via WhatsApp . Transport driver details for airport/train transfers given by WhatsApp so know who is picking you up and eases communication . I had an amazing holiday experience which exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend Phine Safaris and thanks to Kelvin , Moses and the team .

Phine gave us numerous options for our safari plans. We chose the one that most suited us, and it was wonderful. Everything was as good or better than expected. I would definitely use Phine Safaris again in the future.

Phine Safaris Makes Possible A Seamless, Exquisite, Memorable Return Home to Alkebulan
5/5

We have always wanted to travel to Africa and specifically chose Kenya because of the people we have met in the US who are Kenyan and the diverse areas to explore. Our top desires in coordinating this trip were to get to know Kenyans; safely and respectfully enjoy the safaris; learn more history and take in spectacular and breathtaking sites; indulge in the language (Swahili), culture and heritage of the countrysides as well as city life in Nairobi; and relax on the world renowned Diani Beach. All while celebrating a Birthday and even conducting a bit of business! Phine Safaris exceeded ALL of our expectations with consistent communication, affordability, lovely accommodations, attention to detail, and professional exceptional customer service. We are looking forward to arranging (if not a group), our next travel to Kenya with Phine Safaris. We are now family across continents! 🇺🇸 🇬🇾 🇰🇪

Mt Kenya

I cannot stress enough what an unforgettable experience this trip was. I was blessed to have an amazing team comprised of Samuel, Joseph, and Bonface, with Ibrahim as our fearless driver. We started our journey at Sirimon Gate where Mt Kenya park was celebrating ‘customer appreciation week’ by giving us candy, a rose, and fed us cake. After lunch, Samuel and I began our journey up to Old Moses campground and enjoyed a wonderful dinner made by Joseph and Bonface. The meals were always filling and plentiful. I never felt hungry, and was always energized for the next stretch of the hike. The following morning we made a long journey through valleys where the view of Mt Kenya was breathtaking. After a long day we made it to Shiptons camp. It was a busy hub for dozens of hikers but I met a lot of amazing people while there. The following morning was a 2am wake up for 3am start to make it for sunrise on Lenana peak. The journey was challenging and chilly, but seeing the clear sky with infinite stars above us was motivation enough to keep trekking upward. Once on the peak, the view is one that cannot be replicated. A beautiful panorama of mountains as far as the eye can see. We were lucky to have a clear morning where the visibility was in our favor. After snapping a few photos we started back down as we had a long day of descent down the mountain all the way to Anabas lodge. There, the team enjoyed some drinks at the bar, shared one final dinner together, and swapped hiking stories. The next morning we packed up after breakfast and made the drive back. My team certainly made my experience one that I will never forget and I will definitely be coming back in the future. Thank you Phine Safaris for organizing this trip. And thank you again to Samuel, Bonface, Joseph, and Ibrahim for making dozens of memories with me. I’ll see you next time.

The best ever! Super helpful and luxurious!
5/5

We had an absolutely incredible experience with Phine Safaris, who organized a beautifully customized trip for my boyfriend and me to Masai Mara and Lamu.

A special shoutout to Perpetua, who was amazing throughout the planning process. She really understood what we wanted and curated a seamless, personalized itinerary that made the whole trip feel effortless and special.

Our Masai Mara experience was truly unforgettable — we celebrated our anniversary there, and it couldn’t have been more perfect. The private tent setup was stunning, offering both luxury and intimacy in the middle of nature. The safari itself was exceptional, thanks to our driver Moses, who went above and beyond to ensure we saw all the animals and had the best possible game drives. His knowledge and dedication made a huge difference.

Lamu was equally magical — such a serene and unique destination. Everything was beautifully arranged, allowing us to completely relax and soak in the charm of the island.

Overall, Phine Safaris delivered a flawless, memorable experience. Highly recommend them if you’re looking for a thoughtfully curated and stress-free trip!

5/5

We have just returned from an absolutely incredible trip organised by Phine Safaris, and I cannot recommend them highly enough.

From start to finish, everything was seamless. A special mention has to go to Kelvin, who supported us through every step of the process. His communication was excellent, he answered every question patiently, and he made sure every detail was taken care of. It gave us complete confidence before we even arrived.

The entire trip exceeded expectations. The accommodation at Emayian Luxury Camp was fantastic. The tents were beautifully set up, comfortable, and in a stunning location. Waking up to those views each morning was something special. The food was also excellent throughout. Fresh, varied, and far better than we expected in the middle of the bush.

Most importantly, the safari experience itself was unforgettable. We saw an incredible number of animals and had some truly breathtaking moments. The guides were knowledgeable, professional, and clearly passionate about what they do, which made the whole experience even more meaningful.

It was a really well organised, memorable trip from beginning to end. We are genuinely delighted with the experience and would not hesitate to book with Phine Safaris again.

Highly recommended.
