Excellent tour operator providing a great safari adventure.
We did the mid- range 8 day safari in Kenya and the accommodation and food exceeded my expectations for the price we paid. Really good value for money. We had Daniel as a guide and he was superb and very knowledgeable. Even when we had vehicle troubles he always made it a fun adventure and things were always sorted out super quickly. The only thing I would say is that the vehicle with 8 passengers is a squeeze at the back so really they shouldn’t put more than 7 so everyone has enough space and can stand up and see the animals. We didn’t bother with the Masai village after hearing some things about it no longer being really authentic but we really enjoyed the boat on lake naivasha and hells gate park riding electric bikes amongst the animals. Great adventures every day and I will cherish the memories.

Amazing trip!
We had a fantastic trip with excellent organization from start to finish. The entire process with the company was smooth, professional, and very well coordinated, which made the journey completely stress-free for us. Our guide, John, had an incredible knowledge of Kenya and all the national parks we visited. He always kept a respectful distance from the animals, while still making every effort to give us the best possible views. Thanks to him, we learned so much about the wildlife and had an unforgettable experience.

We had the most amazing tour thank to Ariphine and we would do it all over again if we could. Everything was just perfectly organized and the communication was always in a matter of minutes. Our guide John was the best person we could've asked for. Such a calm and collected driver with incredible eyes and ears for wildlife.

Great experienced tour guide
We were a group of 6 and had a 9days tour in Kenya and Tanzania. This review is for the Kenya part as the Tanzania part was handled by another tour company.
On the first day, the company picked us up at the hotel, and loaded us up to our first destination, Maasai Mara National Reserve.
Our guide John was extremely friendly and made us feel comfortable throughout the trip.
During the game drive he coordinated with other guides to find animals and we managed to find all the animals we were expecting including the lions, leopards and cheetahs. He was very experienced and we appreciated he went beyond the hours to look for the animals. There was an optional iteneary where we could visit the Maasai village. We had to pay 20USD per person and the villagers also pressured us to buy their products at an extremely overpriced price. Talking to a local friend, she said it is unfortunate not the authentic Maasai tribe we are seeing but rather the “tourist” ones. So I would recommend not to take this trip.
The accommodation was overall okay (Enchoro wildlife camp had limited hot water, but this is the nature of being in a place with limited infrastructure) and we think the tour fee total was worth the price. Definitely recommend the tour company.

Amazing 13-day Kenya & Tanzania safari with Ariphine—budget-friendly, safe & well-managed!
Ariphine Tours and Safaris – Kenya & Tanzania (13 Days)
We did a 13-day safari in Kenya and Tanzania with Ariphine Tours and Safaris, and it turned out to be a wonderful experience! As a couple, we were looking for a budget-friendly adventure, and Ariphine delivered exactly that — great value, safety, and memorable experiences.
Our guide in Kenya, Dan, was knowledgeable and clearly knew his job well. Although at first we thought he might be a bit laid-back, we soon realized he was experienced, calm, and confident in what he did — which made the whole journey smooth and enjoyable.
There were a few hiccups such as communication gaps and last-minute changes in accommodation and itinerary, but the team handled everything quickly and responsibly. They responded promptly and resolved all issues to our full satisfaction.
Overall, we felt safe, well cared for, and had an amazing time. Highly recommend Ariphine Tours and Safaris for anyone looking for an affordable yet authentic safari experience across Kenya and Tanzania! 🐘🦁🌍
