My guide was professional, very knowledgable, polite and kind. He knew where to find all I asked.
Elida Tours was excellent. It was easy to connect on WhatsApp and all of my questions were answered quickly and fully. The staff were very helpful. My tour of the park was extraordinary - honestly a dream come true. Thank you.

Josephat and David were very professional, knowledgeable and helpful throughout the entire weekend.
Elida tours is a great company. And the drivers are experienced and knowledgeable. This is a real value because on a safari you want a driver that is patient, familiar with the park and knows the animals habits and where they usually are. I had the opportunity to be driven by the owner over the weekend and the experience was one I will never forget. Great experience. Great company.
Will definitely use Elida Tours again in the future.
David is an excellent driver. He is always prompt and professional.
For three years I have used David of Elida Tours as my driver of choice for getting to and from Nairobi. He is a careful driver, always on time and extremely reliable.

Very helpfull and they arranged a trip that was perfect for us
First of all at elida you feel like they care about you having the best trip in your life. And we did!!
Easy to email and talk to them. They tailered our trip to suite our needs.
The hotels had good standard and great food. All around good service in every hotel.
The driver did all that he could so that we could see as many Animals as possible. And we learned a little swahili. It was so fun. In our Safari We saw elephants, Lions, cheetah, Leopard and a lot more.
We had a 10 day trip with a child (6 years old) we where a little skeptical about going with a kid but she had the time of here life. As did we.
We where on Safari in masai Mara and Amboseli and ended the trip in Mombasa.
It was very nice with a little beach vacation at the end of our trip.

Excellent service
David was very friendly and kind and I really enjoyed getting to know him. He was very helpful and accommodating with my tours that I had booked and provided excellent transportation service. He wasn't just a driver, but more like a friend. We had wonderful conversations.

Thoughtful, knowledgeable, a pleasure to be with!
Exploring the wonders of the wild with Elida Tours and Safaris was an absolute thrill! From the moment we arrived, their expert team ensured every aspect of our journey was seamless. Our guides were not only knowledgeable about the diverse flora and fauna but also passionate storytellers, enriching our experience with fascinating anecdotes. The accommodations at Sweetwater were luxurious yet nestled perfectly within the untamed landscapes, offering unparalleled views of nature’s grandeur. Whether tracking majestic elephants or witnessing the graceful dance of giraffes at sunset, every moment felt like a scene from a wildlife documentary brought to life. Thanks to David and his team, our safari exceeded all expectations, leaving us with unforgettable memories and a newfound appreciation for the beauty of the natural world.

Reliable and service-minded as well as flexible.
We have taken different groups, youth and grown ups, on a 2 and 3 weeks trips to Kenya and used Elida Tours in most cases for the last 20 years. We are happy with the service and find the price reasonable. Elida Tours has also been flexible in bookings and so on if changes have been necessary. Always on time and expectations fulfilled from arrival at the airport until taking the group back at the time of departure.

Elida Tours offers a variety of different tour options. And is open for what their clients desire.
Elida Tours has a variety of different tour options. I took a 3 1/2 tour (Masai Mara and Naivasha). It was good. But if you travel only as one person (like single) you pay a lot. Also they place you without asking into a costly hotel. I would have liked a hostel or easy hotel. So it would be able to be cheaper. But in general I have to say it was good. Driver has really good knowdledge where were are, about the animals, some facts etc. I enjoyed the time. Also he drove mostly safe (at least not like some other Kenyan drivers). I felt safe.
Also the boss / CEO cares well about his clients.

Reliable, educated and focused on safety
Many years, since 2009, we have used Elida Tours & Travels. I have been a tour leader for students as well as travels on my own.
They have nice and practical cars, educated and attentive drivers and safari guides. Always I have experiences that they have focused on safety regarding the driving, the equipment and mentality.
Elida is a family driven company, so you will find them flexible and easy to keep in touch with. It’s not only about the safaris, but also airport pick-up, city transports and valuable advices about do’s and dont’s.
I wouldn’t hesitate to use them next time and that’s why it’s also easy to recommend this company.
