The tour and the driver Chris was very good- deserves 5 🌟 and fully recommend, however I am giving 3-4 🌟 because when I booked the trip they didn't even know about us. Took me 2 days to chase everything up, numerous conversations with Viator customer service because the tour operator didn't answer the phone/messages to make sure they know about us and just to give us the pickup time. The day before trip about 22:00PM we finally managed to get in touch with them via phone , and as I said, they didn't know about our activity being booked ( and imagine waking up at 5 AM to wait for them to pick you up and nobody coming). It was also my birthday on the day we went on this trip and I felt quite stressed about the situation having to chase them up after paying this amount of money for 2 people. The car that we went on, it was like a mini van that definately needs changing, it was uncomfortable and also water was leaking from the roof. Also it's saying lunch included, the drinks we had to pay fot them even tho this is not mentioned in the description- we didn't have any alcohol by the way. The day was definately saved by the lovely animals that we managed to see and the driver that was very knowledgeable and nice to us !

The pick up was seamless and on time. Th stop along the way (and back) was at your typical tourist trap but they offered terrible refreshments given the 4 hour journey from our hotel to the destination. The transport vehicle was also not that comfortable and was in need of a clean. What made me give a 4 was the animals. It made the journey so worthwhile and our driver who doubled up as the guide was extremely knowledgeable. The animals saved the day. Despite it all I would go to the destination again but probably choose a different company.

Had an amazing day trip to Tsavo East. The driver was at our apartment on time and he was very informative all through the safari. The owner Bruce always kept in touch to know if we were okay and comfortable during the safari. We had an amazing lunch at lion hill in Tsavo. Tsavo East epitome of a perfect safari, there are lots of elephants and we even saw a pride of lions. I recommend them if you looking for a reliable agency to book your safari in Diani.
Thank you for the review and choosing to experience with us we are looking forward to experience with you again. We appreciate you recommending us and we are up to offering the best of safari experience.
Basically it was not a "tour" but a taxi ride to the park and back. I didn't expect 8 hours of tour guide commentary but other than pointing out the names of animals, (zebra, elephant, etc.) there was no discussion of the park history, wildlife management, animal characteristics, or of Kenyan history or culture. So it was essentially a very expensive taxi ride.
Thank you for booking with us and we appreciate your review. We apologize for the inconveniences caused by the driver, we are looking to improve on our drivers customer relation.
