Papa John has been extremely accommodating and a pleasure to have on the tour.
I went on the 7 day safari tour with papa John. This trip has been nothing short of amazing and impressive. Papa John is very knowledgeable about the parks and wildlife as well as going out of his way for us to get some of the best photos and to find the big 5. Jocky tours has curated a wonderful excursion. Will recommend this trip for anyone wanting to explore Kenya and the wonderful country this is.

Amazing!
I booked a 7 day safari tour with Jocky tours in Kenya and was blessed to have Papa John as my tour guide. He is very personable and knowledgeable and took his time to allow us to appreciate and take in our surroundings. There was no guarantee on which animals we would spot but Papa John was able to find us the Big 5 and more . He even went out of his way to drop off a fellow tour member to the Tanzanian border to continue his trip. The accommodations were great and there were hot showers in each location.

ENTHUSIASTIC
Julius is absolutely the greatest tour guide we could have asked for. He’s done this for such a long time and you can tell because he was taking us to spots with very few safari vehicles to see some stunning animals. As opposed to getting pulled into a sighting that already had 15+ vehicles. Very obviously a veteran! He also knows how to translate the animals in various languages which was awesome! The safari itself, you can’t even dream of something so beautiful. Pictures don’t do it any justice. You will want to experience this with Julius @Jocky Tours. I will go ahead and suggest to request Julius specifically and remain flexible with your dates to ensure you have the best possible experience. GREATEST VALUE ON THE MARKET
Super friendly and knowledgeable
Julius was an incredible tour guide and very well connected in the parks. Just when we thought he was exceptional, somehow he became whatever the word above exceptional is! We were out of cash and he was able to help us get cash. Very new to this traveling experience and his patience on helping us gave us relief! This is very clearly his wonderful character, and thanks to his service we get to go home with not only lifelong memories but a piece of Masaii

Great experience with a knowledgeable, friendly and interesting guide
I did the 6-day budget safari with Jocky, visiting Maasai Mara, Lake Nakuru, Lake Naivasha and Ambroseli. Our driver and guide, Brian Ondigo, was clearly experienced with the parks as well as the driving conditions inside the parks. He was friendly and funny, and took the time to help us see a wide variety of wildlife during the safari. We were even able to see a lion hunting. I also appreciate that he shared bits of information about the parks and the wildlife throughout our time with him. I would definitely enjoy another safari with Brian in the future.
Accomodations were as expected, comparable to a 2 star hotel. It's worth noting that the driving time on the 6-day safari is extensive. Depending on your preferences you may want to skip Lake Nakuru and Lake Naivasha to save 8+ hours of driving.
Jimmy waweru is Very excited to show animals and patiently waits and answers all questions and facts
Very reliable and easy communication skills being one of the best agencies to book any trip with

The tour operator was reliable, friendly, and highly professional.
We had a wonderful 7-day safari with Jocky Tours and Safaris. From the beginning, the communication was clear and prompt, and all of our questions were answered patiently. The itinerary was well organized, and everything ran smoothly throughout the trip.
Our driver-guide David mukami was experienced, friendly, and worked hard to help us spot wildlife. We were fortunate to see a wide variety of animals, including the Big Five, and the guide shared interesting information about the parks and the animals along the way.
The accommodations and meals met our expectations, and the overall experience offered excellent value for money. We always felt safe and well taken care of. This safari was one of the highlights of our trip to Kenya, and we would happily recommend Jocky Tours and Safaris to anyone looking for a reliable and memorable safari experience.
Papa John was PHENOMENAL! He is so knowledgeable about the animals and ensured a great experience.
Papa John tour guide was the BEST! Just finished the 6 day Masai Mara, Nakuru, Amboseli trip and would 10/10 recommend. Saw all of the Big 5 and much more - great value and experience was better than anticipated.
