Hi there bhull247,

Thanks for visiting the Apple Support Communities.

Safari itself is a web browser, allowing you to browse the web and visit various websites. It is not a search engine itself, however, and requires use of third-party search engines to facilitate your inquiries. In Settings > Safari > Search Engine on your iPhone, you can select from a variety of them, including Google, Yahoo, and Bing.

Have a lovely day!
