Great 6-Day Safari
I had a very good 6-day safari to Masai Mara, Nakuru, and Amboseli with Jocky Tours. I am very happy with everything.
One of the biggest advantages was that all park entrance fees were pre-paid. Paying at the park gates is very hard and takes time. So it should definitely be paid in advance.
Masai Mara was great, other than leopards I believe we saw every major animal. In Nakuru, we saw black and white rhinos and many other animals too. Amboseli was a bit empty unfortunately, we were just not lucky.
Our tour guide Isaac was very good. He tried really hard to show us as many animals as possible and show them from the best angles. He told us a lot of things about the animals. Also, he was very friendly.

A safari company offering a great overall experience, communication before the trip could be improv
I went on the 6-Day Circuit Safari covering Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru and Amboseli. Overall, the safari was very well planned and organised.
Our guide, Dennis Hinga, deserves special thanks. He was professional, reliable and excellent at his job. His calm and knowledgeable approach made the safari a truly successful and memorable experience. He also had answers to my countless questions about the animals, Kenya and Kenyan culture, which added a lot to the experience.
The main area for improvement would be communication from the company organising the safari. Before the trip, I had to ask about some things several times, which made me a bit hesitant to book the safari.
Overall, I am very happy with the safari itself.

Better than everyone
Our guide made our Masai Mara safari unforgettable. He spotted all of the Big Five (lion, leopard, elephant, buffalo and rhino) in a single day, which is rare even for seasoned visitors. His sharp eyes, deep knowledge of animal behavior and patience meant we were always in the right place at the right moment, and he never rushed us when we wanted photos.
He was also friendly, funny and safety-conscious, and he made us feel completely comfortable the whole time. I'd recommend him to anyone wanting a first-class safari experience. Thank you for the memories!
Excellent experience with Philip, memorable !
I went for 6 days of Safari with Philip as the driver
I saw wonderful animals scenes all the way through Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru and Amboseli!
Philip has always been reactive and compliant with our last minute demands and made sure we had everything we needed along the road !
I’ll recommand Philip 100 times
Thank you again for this memorable trip, i had a great time

Amazing
It was an amazing experience in my entire life .The tour guide, Simba, has a lot of knowledge about animals. He answered every single question about animals habitat. I highly recommend to join the tour if you want to see many animals, or feel nature.

Great hospitality
Papa John was the best guide, he gave the best to make the trip awesome for us. We did extra searching to spot all the animals we wanted to see!
Great experience
Our experience with Jocky Tours was very good, mainly thanks to our driver-guide, David.
David was absolutely amazing and truly made our safari unforgettable. He was incredibly knowledgeable about the animals, the parks and the local area, and he always went above and beyond to make sure we had the best possible experience.
He was kind, patient, professional and always attentive to what we wanted. Thanks to his experience and great instincts, we were able to see so many incredible animals and enjoy some unforgettable moments.
He was also an excellent driver, making us feel safe and comfortable throughout the entire safari, even on some challenging roads.
We are very grateful to David for making our Kenya safari so special.
Thank you!

Good quality and good guide
My mother and I went on safari in the Masai Mara for the first time, for a 3-day, 2-night trip, and it was absolutely fantastic! Francis was our guide, and from the very first moment it was clear that he is a great guy.
On the first day, he gave us extra time in the park and did an amazing job of spotting as much wildlife as possible. We actually saw more animals on the first day than we had expected to see during the entire trip. Super cool!
The second day was a bit more relaxed, which was also really nice. We spent the day in the park from 7 a.m. until 5 p.m., with a delicious and extensive lunch box that we enjoyed together on a picnic blanket under a tree in the park.
All in all, it was an incredible experience. Francis, thank you for sharing your knowledge, for creating such a great group spirit, and for putting so much effort into making sure we could see as many animals as possible — including the Big Five!
