I quote from Bulbapedia: "The Friend Safari... is a facility in Kiloude City where Trainers can catch Pokemon that cannot normally be found in their journeys."
So basically how it works is that you have someone as your friend registered on your 3DS, you can enter the Friend Safari after entering the Hall of Fame. Every Friend Safari has 3 Pokemon in it- a list of all the Pokemon you can find is also on Bulbapedia. (The Friend Safaris just have a bunch of patches of grass for encounters.)
I also quote, "Pokémon encountered in the Friend Safari are guaranteed to have at least two IVs of 31. They also have a 1/512 chance of being Shiny (eight times more likely than normal). The Shiny chance is not affected by the Shiny Charm."
So yeah. That's basically it. Many will use Friend Safaris to shiny hunt because of the odds. Shame it doesn't get affected by the Shiny charm...
tl;dr even though it's technically longer - http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Friend_Safari
