About Soin Africa Safaris

Kenya's trusted safari specialists since 2009.

Our Story

16 Years Crafting Extraordinary African Journeys

Founded in 2009 by a group of passionate local Kenyan safari experts, Soin Africa Safaris was born from one simple belief: that Africa deserves to be experienced on its own terms — raw, real, and deeply personal.

From our base in Westlands, Nairobi, we have grown from a small, family-run operation into one of Kenya's most trusted tour operators. We are fully licensed by the Kenya Association of Tour Operators (KATO) and carry full professional indemnity insurance, so every journey is backed by absolute peace of mind.

Over the years we have welcomed more than 5,000 travellers from across the world — from first-time visitors wide-eyed at the Maasai Mara sunrise to seasoned Africa hands returning for their seventh safari. Every single one of them received a personalised itinerary built around their passions, budget, and travel style. No off-the-shelf packages. No compromises.

Our mission is simple: to be Africa's most thoughtful travel partner — one that combines local knowledge, responsible practices, and genuine human warmth into journeys that change lives.
