The TourwithPipi Difference
The Vision behind TourwithPipi
When I relocated from Kenya to the United States, I noticed how African safaris were often portrayed either as inaccessible, ultra-exclusive experiences, or as generic packages that missed the depth and beauty of the continent.
Neither reflected the Africa I know and love
That’s why I founded TourWithPipi: to create refined, personalized journeys that blend world-class comfort with genuine local experiences. As a Virtuoso-certified luxury travel advisor, I bring global service standards together with deep regional insight in every itinerary I design.
Given my background in infectious diseases and global health, I also wanted to use travel as a platform for meaningful impact. A portion of every journey supports healthcare initiatives in underserved communities across East Africa.
When you travel with us, you’re becoming part of a journey that is carefully designed, personally supported, and rooted in real connection to help you experience Africa in the most authentic way possible.
Curated with Care. Backed by Experience
As someone born and raised in Kenya, with trusted family leadership on the ground, I understand how important it is to experience Africa with comfort, confidence, and care.
At TourWithPipi, we personally vet every property in our portfolio. We don’t rely on glossy photos or second-hand reviews. We visit, stay, and meet the teams behind each lodge, ensuring every detail meets the standards our clients expect and deserve.
Because of our deep regional presence, we have built long-standing relationships with our trusted partners. This allows us to advocate for you to receive thoughtful upgrades, preferred placement, and personalized touches so your journey feels elevated, seamless, and effortless from start to finish.
With you Every Step of the Way
Planning a luxury safari from North America should feel exciting, not overwhelming.
We guide you through every stage of the journey with clarity and care: from your first conversation with us to your return home. Routes, timing, lodge selection, transfers, and daily flow are thoughtfully coordinated so your experience feels smooth, balanced, and unhurried.
Throughout your travels, you are supported by our 24/7 concierge-level team, both in the United States and on ground in Africa. We monitor every transition, remain available whenever you need us, and quietly manage the details behind the scenes.
With our founder’s background in infectious disease and global health, we also prioritize safety and preparedness. Your journey is supported by trusted emergency response and medical evacuation partners, offering added peace of mind while you travel.
This allows you to be fully present knowing every detail is being carefully and professionally managed, while enjoying an exceptional safari experience
