I hontestly recommend this company ! :)
This is a really great company. I am from Poland and traveling through Africa with a backpack on a very tight budget. The offer was perfectly tailored to my expectations. I clearly explained what I was looking for, and I received options adjusted to my budget. The safari was very well organized, and other transfers and excursions were also excellent. Everything was safe and well planned from start to finish. Communication via WhatsApp was possible even at very unusual hours. The people are very kind and helpful. I honestly highly recommend this company! Thank you! 🫶
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your kind words and for taking the time to share your experience on Tripadvisor 😊 We are truly happy to hear that you enjoyed your 2 Days Tsavo East Tour with Elky Tours and that we were able to tailor the safari to fit your budget and expectations. Knowing that you felt safe, well taken care of, and supported throughout your journey means a lot to our entire team. It was a pleasure assisting you during your travels in Africa, and we really appreciate your recommendation. We wish you many more amazing adventures ahead and hope to welcome you again in Kenya someday! 🌍🐘 Warm regards, Elky Tours Team

Take the Safari with them..
We asked our hotel and they recommended us. I heard them via email from Italy and they became immediately available to organize the Safari according to our requests. When we arrived in Diani we met and they explained in detail what we would do: Tsavo East and Thaiti Hill. Beautiful sleeping facilities, top rooms (the best), ate well buffet style. The guide, GareGare, deserves a separate paragraph. Wonderful and helpful person, spoke perfect Italian, explained everything and went in search of Big5 and other animals, always careful to look around to see some animals, knows very well both the Park and the reserves and knows how to move and where to go. He did everything to make us live a beautiful experience. If you want to take a nice Safari, sleep in TOP places in the best rooms to enjoy the peace, eat well.... rely on them.
Response from the operator: Grazie mille per la tua meravigliosa recensione! Siamo entusiasti di sapere che il tuo safari di due giorni a Tsavo East è stato un’esperienza indimenticabile. È fantastico sapere che la nostra organizzazione e la disponibilità del nostro team hanno reso il viaggio ancora più speciale per te. Siamo particolarmente felici che tu abbia apprezzato la guida GareGare; è davvero un grande professionista e le tue parole lo confermano! La sua passione per la fauna e la sua conoscenza del parco sono senza dubbio tesori preziosi durante l'avventura. Grazie per consigliare i nostri servizi; speriamo di rivederti presto per un'altra emozionante avventura nel nostro bellissimo Kenya!

Comfortable vehicle and experienced safari driver!
Fantastic experience during our trip, our driver Mike was friendly and very knowledgeable about the area and wildlife and truly made our experience memorable! He picked us up from Diani Beach and we first went to Salt Lick in Taita Hills for 2 nights then onto Tsavo for Severin Safari Camp. We saw so much wildlife! Lions, elephants, cheetah, antelope, buffaloes, zebra and giraffes! Truly got lucky but I really think it was Mike’s knowledge and instincts of the area as well. The vehicle was very comfortable, clean and full stocked with water! To break up the long journeys Mike scheduled us some very safe stops to eat/stretch our legs. I highly recommend using this company, it really helps with transfers from the coast and simplifying travel. Plus having your own driver at many of these resorts is a plus because you’re not fighting for photo shots in a crowded vehicle! We will always have great memories of our safari in Kenya and I’ll definitely recommend using this company and ask for Mike!
Response from the operator: Its amazing that we made your Tour remarkable, enjoyable and memorable, it is our mission to give the best out of ourselves and hoping to see you again.

Why this scores 68
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Elky Tours 2 Days Tsavo East Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Diani Beach.
How much does Elky Tours 2 Days Tsavo East Tour cost?
+
Prices start at $380 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Diani Beach usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Elky Tours 2 Days Tsavo East Tour take?
+
Plan for about 48 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Diani Beach is not rushed.
Is Elky Tours 2 Days Tsavo East Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 68 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 7 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable outdoors in Diani Beach, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Elky Tours 2 Days Tsavo East Tour?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 144 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Elky Tours 2 Days Tsavo East Tour suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 48-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Elky Tours 2 Days Tsavo East Tour?
+
Around 2 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Diani Beach can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Diani Beach and add a light layer if any part of the 48-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Elky Tours 2 Days Tsavo East Tour start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Diani Beach within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Diani Beach?
+
On Outty we rank every Diani Beach experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Mombasa City Tour, Full Day Dolphin Watching with Snorkeling in Wasini, Full-Day Special Wasini Island Tour with Snorkeling and Lunch. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Diani Beach?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Diani Beach?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
