Just wonderful
Last November my wife and I celebrated our honeymoon and Elida tours arranged everything for us. We were picked up by our driver Wilson at our resort in diani and our first destination was Tsavo East. A wonderful park with a lot of elephants. Our lodge was in the middle of the park and we had a nice room facing a waterhole with elephants every morning!! Tsavo east is a busy park with a lot of tourists from the coastal cities. Sometimes a bit hectic when they see lions, it is like being in a theme park...
After 3 nights we went to Tsavo West which has a beautiful nature scene. Our lodge was looking over the Rhino valley. You do have to look very hard to see animals, however the park has lots to offer next to it. See the rhino sanctuary! Open daily from 16:00-18:00, its worth it.
After Tsavo west we drove to amboseli national park. Most of the lodges are located outside of the park and we stayed at Kibo safari camp. From our room we could see the beautiful Mount Kilimanjaro. Wow, just wow.
Our driver from Elida tours arranged for us to have a room facing the mountain, nicely done!
You always say; save the best for last. Well we did. After two nights at amboseli we drove to the Masai Mara. Which was amazing. We saw, thanks to Wilson, the big five in only one day. Just an amazing trip!
The only thing which did not go so well, was the long wait at the gate of the wild parks. The registration process was just taking forever and should be better.
Elida tours arranged a perfect honeymoon for us and we are grateful that Elizabeth and David took so good care of us.

Transportation around Kenya
We visit Kenya annually and rely on David and his team for our transportation needs. His vehicles are comfortable and well maintained. He and his drivers are friendly and knowledgeable about the roads and attractions. The costs are very reasonable and the service reliable. When traveling through Nairobi we reccomend using Elida tours for your personalized travel needs

Professional, punctual, informative, highly recommended.
We had a great trip with David and Elizabeth’s company. We paid half the cost up front and the rest at the time. We were picked up from our hotel on time, our guide, Josfat, was a careful driver and very knowledgable regarding the animals we saw during our game drives. The accommodation at Kilima Lodge was excellent and so close to the park entrance. Elephant, gazelle and bird life were in abundance. David even organised to drop us back to the airport when heading home.

Very knowledgeable, friendly and experienced
I had a fantastic experience with Elida Tours. They were flexible with unexpected changes, had a great rate for a tour of Nairobi game park and had an experienced driver who knew just where to go to see plenty of animals. I would highly recommend this company. I was very impressed with the whole experience, from booking to going.

Highly recommend
I have used this service many times over the past year that we have lived in Kenya. We have gone on 4+ safaris and several pick ups/drop offs at the airport. The drivers are efficient & personable.

A flexible operator, willing to deliver and adjust to our desires
Elida was recommended by our colleagues, and having to arrange details of the tour from abroad was no problem (with WhatsApp). They were willing to adjust to our specific demands, and we ended with a very enjoyable tour, mixing van, walking and riding safaris. Cost was as high as expected, with as few as possible extra to pay. While elephant and rhino were elusive, we had the opportunity to watch four lionesses hunting (but failing). Walking among zebras, gnous and velvet monkeys was a great experience, too!

Trustworthy
Our trip with Elida tours was both accessible, adventurous and affordable. We traveled as a big group of students, and Elida handled us with great care - as Well as providing us with a student discount in the national park. 10/10 would recommend.
