.Pilli Pipa is a 5 star set up run by Germans who really want their visitors to be 110% satisfied. The dhows are clean, in excellent condition and comfortable, and the staff are really professional and kind. Early pick up then an hours drive to the boat....even the drive is interesting and (very) comfortable in the Pilli Pipas colourful private... More

A fantastic trip, cannot recommend it enough! Don't understand how anyone could criticize it. You take a traditional Dhow boat to the coral reef, which was incredible. Beautiful coloured coral and tropical fish in abundance. We were also lucky enough to see a turtle. We then boarded the boat and saw dolphins. Finally, you go back to Wassini Island where... More

This was a fantastic trip .... the crew are amazing, very patient and understanding ... I hate deep water and my partner was shocked that I ended up at the front of the line of snorklers! Life jackets were provided and also life rings for those more nervous ... take the plunge, you will not regret it

We spent a day on the Pilli Pipa during a week long stay in Diani and we were not disappointed. As avid divers, we decided to splurge on the two dive package they offered as Kisite Marine Park had a reputation for being a good diving spot - and it was. It was a real luxury having the cheerful crew... More

We went with Pilli Pipa to visit the Kisite Marine Park. Very well organised and very nice and friendly staff. The snorkeling material was of good quality and staff took clients and kids in particular seriously on charge. The park is beautiful and the excursion was really nice. The lunch was on a beautiful setting and food was OK. A... More

If going on the Pilli Pipa, do lower your expectations and standards! and make sure you use the loo before you go!!! It is mis-sold on its advertisements/marketing materials. You are not accompanied by the owner or his marine-biologist wife. You do not sail at all - just choke on diesel fumes. The snorkelling is good, but the boat leaves... More

We loved the arrangements made for us and the dhow staff were very helpful. We got to see lots of fish and corals. It's a great safari even if you don't know how to swim. Just don't forget to carry your prevent travel sickness pills!

This trip was amazing - we booked for the 10th march. Yes the travel there was a bit bumpy but this is Africa!! Snorkelling great - we saw turtles, dolphins, rays and much more, the guides were really helpful. Lunch is what made it for me - fresh caught crabs with all the trimmings! Many thanks to all the crew... More

The boat trip and snorkelling is excellent and the crew are brilliant. However the advertising does not make clear that access to the dhow is via a small boat, and at lunchtime access to wasini island is also by a small boat and wading ashore. The sea bottom is all potholes and difficult to walk on, so if you are... More
