Reviews
Very educated and informative on all animals we seen
From day one to the very last day, our experience was incredible. Starting in the Maasai Mara was definitely my favorite part. Seeing the wildlife up close and watching their daily activities in their natural habitat was truly a one-of-a-kind experience.
We were lucky enough to see lions multiple times—from watching them eat their prey to seeing them walk across the land with their baby cubs. Those are moments I’ll never forget.
Our guide, Jone, made the experience even better. He always made sure to position the Jeep perfectly so we could get great photos and the best possible views of the wildlife. He is extremely knowledgeable about the animals and speaks great English. Throughout the safari, he taught us about each animal’s unique traits, behaviors, and habits, which made every sighting even more interesting.
Overall, we were extremely satisfied with both Jone and Jocky Tours & Safaris. They gave us one hell of an amazing week right in the heart of Kenya. If you’re thinking about doing a safari in Kenya, this is an experience I would absolutely recommend!

A Dream Safari in Kenya – An Unforgettable 7 Days
We had an absolutely incredible 7-day safari with Jocky Tours, and it was an experience we will never forget!
From the very beginning, the booking process with Jocky Tours went smoothly. Communication was excellent, and our emails were always answered quickly. The pick-up and drop-off were very well organized, which made the whole trip stress-free from the start.
We visited four national parks and saw an incredible variety of wildlife. A huge part of this amazing experience was our guide, Kikitu. He was extremely attentive, knowledgeable, and always made sure we were having the best possible experience. He taught us so much about the animals and their behavior and somehow managed to get us incredibly close to the wildlife while always being respectful of the animals. He was constantly looking out for us and organized everything perfectly.
One of my biggest dreams was to see a leopard in the wild, and thanks to Kikitu, I was lucky enough to experience this unforgettable moment! We also saw the Big Five, along with so many other incredible animals.
Seven days filled with adventure, breathtaking landscapes, unforgettable wildlife encounters, and wonderful people. This safari not only showed us the incredible beauty of Kenya, but also brought us closer to the warmth and kindness of the Kenyan people.
A huge thank you to Jocky Tours and especially to Kikitu for making this trip so special. I would absolutely recommend this safari to anyone who wants to experience the beauty, wildlife, and hospitality of Kenya. It truly was a dream come true!

Incredible safari with our excellent guide Kikitu
The tour was filled with so many highlights – from the Masai Mara safari, which offered an incredible diversity of wildlife, to several other beautiful national parks. The final highlight was Amboseli National Park, with its breathtaking views of Mount Kilimanjaro.
In the Masai Mara, we saw by far the most animals and were also able to get incredibly close to them. This was largely thanks to our fantastic guide, Kikitu. He spotted an amazing number of animals and, whenever he heard about a sighting over the radio, he immediately took us as close as possible to give us the best experience.
And this brings me – apart from the safari itself, which was already an incredible adventure – to the next highlight of the tour: our guide, Kikitu!
He went above and beyond to make sure everyone in the group was well taken care of. Thanks to him, we were able to take amazing photos, were always well looked after when it came to meals, and everything at the accommodations worked smoothly in the evenings as well. While other tour guides simply drop their guests off at the hotel, Kikitu came by every morning and evening and personally made sure that everything was taken care of. Even when I had some stomach problems one day, he went the extra mile and called the hotel manager that evening to check on how I was doing.
All in all, it was a beautiful and incredibly memorable safari, and Kikitu made the experience even more special with his outstanding care and dedication.
I can highly recommend this tour!
Thank you to Jockey Tours, and especially our guide Kikitu, for such an amazing and unforgettable experience!

Amazing experience and great customer service!
Unbelievable safari experience, which was great value for money and surpassed our expectations. We were lucky enough to have Kikitu as our guide! He went above and beyond to ensure that everybody had a great time, with no stress and got us up as close as physically possible to see all of the animals. Kikitu took time to get to know his customers and what they were hoping to see he then managed to make it happen, and we were lucky enough to see all of the Big 5 plus many more animals.
We even had a surprise lunch stop with hippopotamus’s!
Fantastic overall experience!
Huge thank you to Kikitu for being the number 1 tour guide and Maureen for the seamless booking process.

Peter Kimani
Peter was amazing, his excellent driving and positioning allowed us to get to sightings first and have the best position once we got there. We saw a lion hunting very close to the vehicle, a leopard at close range too and a host of other amazing animals. Peter was insightful and funny throughout and overall made it an incredible trip

A Wonderful Five-Day Safari with an Outstanding Guide
Our five-day safari through the Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru, and Lake Naivasha was one of the highlights of our trip to Kenya. Everything was well planned, and each day offered new landscapes, wildlife encounters, and memorable experiences.
David Mnyama was an excellent guide and driver. He was always punctual, professional, friendly, and ready to help. His ability to spot animals was remarkable, and he shared his knowledge of their habits and behavior with genuine passion. Thanks to him, we saw an incredible variety of wildlife at close range while always feeling safe and comfortable.
The visit to the Maasai village gave us an interesting insight into local culture, while the boat ride on Lake Naivasha was another beautiful and enjoyable part of the itinerary.
Jocky Tours provided very good support throughout the entire experience. Communication was quick and courteous from the planning stage until the end of the safari. A minor problem with the accommodation on our final night was dealt with immediately and professionally, and an excellent alternative was arranged.
We returned with wonderful memories and great appreciation for David’s dedication. We highly recommend both David and Jocky Tours to anyone planning a safari in Kenya.

Five Unforgettable Days in Kenya
Our safari with Jocky Tours was a truly memorable experience. David was an excellent guide and driver: knowledgeable, reliable, attentive, and passionate about his work. He took us to beautiful places and helped us enjoy some incredible wildlife sightings.
The entire itinerary was interesting and varied, from the Masai Mara and Lake Nakuru to the boat ride on Lake Naivasha and the Maasai village visit. A small issue with our final hotel booking was handled quickly and professionally by the agency.
Many thanks to David and the Jocky Tours team. We would gladly choose them again!
