Mission Icon

Our Mission

Frá Ísi til Safari was born from Caroline's dream — to share the magic of Kenya with those who seek more than just adventure. Our mission is to offer deeply rooted, culturally immersive travel that inspires, empowers, and uplifts. We bring people together across borders, backgrounds, and beliefs — to share laughter, stories, sunsets, and soul. Because travel should not only change the way you see the world — it should change the way you see yourself.

Vision Icon

Our Vision

To open hearts, one journey at a time. Our dream is to create a travel experience where every guest feels welcomed, enriched, and empowered — whether they're stepping into the wild beauty of a Kenyan safari or the quiet strength of a village sunset. We see travel as a tool for unity, healing, and transformation — and Kenya as the perfect place to begin that story.
