Trustworthy, Reliable, Friendly
I have known David and his family at Elida Tours & Safaris since 2002, at least, and have used them consistently over the past 16+ years.
When I travel internationally, the most important thing for me and my family is trust. When it comes to travel arrangements and accommodations in Kenya, Elida Tours & Safaris is simply the best. I know that whatever I need, David can get it done quickly and at a reasonable price.
Whether it is picking up our missions team at the airport at all hours of the day or night, choosing the right accommodations for us in Nairobi or elsewhere, exchanging currency and having it ready for our arrival, arranging for cell phones or SIM cards while in country, or simply arranging for a drive through the Nairobi Game Preserve, Elida Tours & Safaris is the only company you'll ever need.
I am confident that David and his family will make Kenya feel like your home away from home!

The Elida Experience
I have worked with Elida Tours for about two years and they have been reliable. They have assisted whenever I have guests coming over, especially from out of Kenya, all the way from airport transfers, accommodation and tours. We have also had work-related events and used their services as well.
Always have a great team ready to have us on the trips and enjoy a good time.

Extremely helpful and reliable
We used Elida for many of our trips around the Nairobi area. David the owner, was a really decent person, always helpful and accommodating to our needs. Ben was our driver; he was lovely, friendly, kind and informative. Highly recommend them.

Well Customised and Personalised
This is my second review of Elida - I held off writing it until we were back in Australia since I noticed there was a 'credibility deficit' to a review if it came from Kenya. So a quick note first to note that the earlier review about Kilimanjaro and Amboseli is also from Australia even if posted from Kenya.
We used Elida Tours and Safaris again, this time for a customised self drive trip across Kenya and Uganda. David organised all the vehicle particulars/paperwork for us to allow us to cross the border, secure insurance and so on. It was well priced, but its the local knowledge and management which pays off. His firm advice about where to buy insurance for example meant we paid what was required, not what people asked. His provision of a 'fixer' to help us through the madness which is the Malaba border crossing (thousands of trucks, no signage, no guidance) made that experience (to and from) as pain free as anyone could hope.
Once again David was easily contactable, got us what we needed, gave us good advice and was helpful in every way.
I am very happy to be emailed about any of the reviews I have posted about Elida Tours and Safaris.
