Wonderful day trip
We last-minutely reserved a trip with Delfin Tours, and it exceeded our expectations. The trip began early in the morning from our hotel, The Sands at Nomad Hotel, to Kisite park for snorkeling, where we spotted numerous dolphins. Lunch was also excellent. There was nothing more that we could have wished for.
We appreciate Annalice's prompt response to our urgent need.
I won't think twice about recommending Delfin Tours to anyone looking for an excellent day trip.

A fantastic experience
Delfin Tours arranged a trip for us to the Coast, which I must say was one of a kind. We had to be picked up and left off in Kilifi, and our driver John was excellent—always on time and very accommodating. Knowing that all of the expenses had been covered made it possible for us to actually explore and just take in the experience. The Hell's Kitchen was undoubtedly the best part. Gede's Ruins are breathtaking, and Watamu and Gede are both highly intriguing locations.
The Medina Hotel was excellent, with helpful personnel and delicious meals. The entire second day was spent at Mida Creek and Watamu Reef. Mangrove trees and crystal clean waterways are undoubtedly enjoyable. If you have your own snorkel gear, I advise bringing it, and the boat was also very accommodating.
In general, it was an incredible two days.

Wonderful day spent with wonderful people
Early morning our guide took us up from the hotel and informed us of interesting things about the destination en route. The personnel on the boat was excellent, outlined all we would be doing and seeing. We set out in search of dolphins but ultimately concluded that snorkeling would be more fun. That exceeded all expectations. The variety of colors, fish species, and corals was simply astounding.
We then traveled to Wasini Island for lunch, which had great flavors and amazing aromas. We visited slave caves in Shimoni after the island.
My daughter wanted to stay longer in the water because the water is chilly back home. The tour lasted the whole day from beginning to end, without complains. Much thanks to Delfin Tours for organising the tour.

Exceptional holiday with Delfin Tours
Delfin Tours was exceptional and I would recommend this tour company without any hesitations!
We booked 10 days of our trip to Kenya with Delfin Tours (Maasai Mara, Nakuru, Amboseli, Tsavo and Diani Beach).
From the first point of contact, Annalice was responsive, patient, kind and very informative. She created an itinerary that was tailored specifically to us and within our budget. She answered all of our questions and was always available throughout our trip. She would send quick notes to check-in periodically throughout our trip which felt so great knowing that we had someone available while in Kenya.
Although we booked part of our Kenya trip by ourselves as we wanted to use some of our credit card points (e.g., hotels in Nairobi and plane ticket from Diani to Nairobi), Annalice always provided excellent recommendations and great advice.
Delfin Tours provided us with hands-down the best tour guide, Tony. Tony was so much fun! He had a wealth of knowledge on animals and I swear, he had eyes all over his head as he could spot animals from far distances and provided plenty of interesting facts. He also knew so much about the history, culture and peoples of Kenya and throughout our 8 days with him, we felt so enriched and informed. We had a blast and genuinely enjoyed spending time with him. He will be dearly missed :(
Thank you so much, Delfin Tours (specifically to Annalice and Tony) for making our vacation one of the most incredible experiences of our lives!

The best Sandy beaches
We had an awesome day, the most exquisite of our entire Kenya vacation. Our amazing tour guide was really kind and informative. He was a delightful and sincere individual who understood everything about Mombasa and the islands we toured. We felt welcome and entertained by the staff of the boat. Everything was perfect including the meals we had. This was brilliantly done by Delfin Tours. Kudos

Wasini island day trip with Delfin Tours
Through their representative Annalice, we arranged for the Wasini Day Trip with Delfin Tours. They provided excellent service. Annalice provided extensive information on our trip and how to organize ourselves. The trip's cost was fair as well. I would especially like to thank Musa for guiding me the entire time I snorkeled underwater because I was not an adept swimmer. The shoreside seafood feast was amazing and was freshly prepared. We learned a lot from the boat's personnel, who were Wasini Island natives. We saw a lot of dolphins as well. Unlike other tour operators, Delfin Tours give you a far more personalized and genuine experience because it is a reliable operator.

Unforgettable Wasini Adventure!
We had a wonderful day. With the help of our tour guide, Isaac, we traveled from Mombasa to Wasini. He was exceptionally kind and eager to go way beyond for us. He gave us water and fresh fruits, but much more, he had a wealth of knowledge about Kenya, its history, and religion. He also taught us a great deal about Kenyans and their highly-valued way of life. When we first got there, we went for snorkeling and saw a lot of dolphins playing. My traveling companion isn't an excellent swimmer, but Isaac helped her feel at ease so she could enjoy the coral reef to the fullest.
After eating lunch, we took a tour of the wasini island village to learn more about their fascinating histories and see where the residents live. I'm very grateful for the adventure with Delfin Tours, it will be imprinted permanently in my memory.

Sealife at its best
Our day trip to Kisite Mpunguti for vacation snorkeling was absolute delight. We appreciate Delfin Tours. Mike picked us up on time and drove us the entire way to Shimoni while providing us with beautiful views of the palm trees, sugarcane fields, and Swahili communities. Mike is very kind, pleasant, and professional. When we got there, we got aboard one of the dhows and headed towards the marine park. Dolphins followed our boat throughout the way which was delighting to witness. Malik was the captain of the boat, and he was highly informed, entertaining, and seaworthy. My husband and I were in amazement of the stunning views of the coral gardens, turtles, and other water life. The lobsters from the seafood meal were superb. The Shimoni Slave Caves tour that followed was spectacular. We later traveled back to Diani, which was exhausting but well worth it. Thank you Delfin Tours.

Many thanks to Lilian for organizing such an incredible safari trip for us.
The experience was truly amazing, and we enjoyed every minute of it. The nature and all the different herds we saw were just incredible. A special shoutout to our guide, Simon, who made the trip even more memorable with his knowledge and expertise. My wife and I can’t wait to visit again in the future.

Friendly, thorough and super helpful
My wife and I booked a safari with Delfin at Taita Hills at relatively short notice. The safari saw us travel on the SGR to Voi and spend two days at the Taita Hills resort and spa before travelling back by SGR to Nairobi.
The Taita Hills resort and spa is a great base for a safari. The staff is fantastic and goes out of their way to make your experience memorable.
Delfin was fantastic from start to finish. Annalice was absolutely amazing at arranging the trip, including organising SGR train tickets, collections, and drop-offs both in Nairobi and Voi. Throughout the booking process and then during the trip Annalice was in regular communication, going out of her way to ensure everything ran smoothly, including coming to collect us from Nairobi SGR station when we returned after the trip. I fully recommend Delfin and the Taita Hills safari package to anyone who wants to experience a great safari, with fantastic support throughout.
