Amazing!
5/5

The safari trip in Masai Mara was amazing and the experience at the Sankale tented park was a surprise, they provided all what we needed, and if you like the tent life you’ll be rewarded by the experience.
Our guide Brian ondigo was professional and a really nice person. He provided us a lot of information about the animals and the environment and he made sure if everything was good for us.
I recommend the safari with Jocky tour especially with Brian as guide.
Thank you Brian!

I had a great time on the 3-day group safari in the Masai Mara. Everything was well organized, and the experience was amazing.

A special thanks to our guide, Brian Ondigo. He was professional, friendly, and knowledgeable about the wildlife. He always made an effort to find the best spots to see the animals and shared lots of interesting information throughout the safari.
I would definitely recommend this safari, especially if you have Brian as your guide 😊

It was great!
5/5

Me and two friends joined the 3-day group safari in the Masai Mara, and it was an amazing experience.

Our guide, Brian Ondigo, was friendly, knowledgeable, and always did his best to make sure we had the best possible experience. He drove us around the park, explained everything about the wildlife and the animals, and always tried to help us spot as much as possible.

We couldn’t have asked for a better guide. The whole experience was unforgettable, and we highly recommend this safari with Brian. Thank you, Brian! 😊

Excellent memory
5/5



Going to the Maasai Mara in Kenya with my family was a long-awaited dream come true for all of us. This trip turned out to be absolutely perfect—even beyond our expectations—and it was all thanks to our incredible guide, Francis.

Searching for wildlife in the vast savannah is a true test of patience. Francis seemed to possess a magical sense of positivity; from the moment we set out each day, he always wore the brightest, most optimistic smile, proactively and passionately searching every corner for us. Following his lead, we were thrilled to see elegant giraffes and magnificent herds of elephants, making every moment together as a family incredibly exciting.

What touched our family the most was Francis's sheer perseverance. There were times when we had been driving across the plains for so long that we were ready to give up, yet he remained fully focused, meticulously scanning the bushes and watching for the slightest movement. Our most unforgettable moment happened toward the very end of the trip. Through his incredible attentiveness and refusal to give up, Francis actually guided us right to a hidden thicket where we found a whole lion family, including two tiny, adorable lion babies! Seeing the lion family together in such a heartwarming scene was a moment of pure magic that deeply moved our entire family—it was a feeling beyond words.

Francis’s dedication to ensuring we had the trip of a lifetime was even more heartwarming than the wildlife sightings themselves. He felt less like a tour guide and more like an old friend in Kenya, sharing his homeland with us with boundless warmth. Thank you, Francis. Your radiant energy and determination made this African journey a lifetime treasure and the most heartwarming memory for our family.

Amazing
5/5

If you want the best wildlife viewing experience, Francis is the guide to go with! He has eagle eyes and can spot leopards and lions hidden deep in the bushes. During the long drives, he shared so many fascinating insights about the ecosystem and birds, making our trip both fun and educational. He is not just a guide, but a true expert who loves nature.

A choice you won't regret, a company I would recommend when traveling in Africa!
5/5

While preparing for my first trip to Africa, I chose a company with good reviews at a reasonable price, which led me to use that company.

Our guide, Francis, is a good driver and explains things very well. Above all, safari tours are often divided into the guide's ability to recognize animals, and Francis was exceptional. The ability of an expert to answer all questions people ask during the trip is also sufficient.

Thanks to you, I had a very peaceful and enjoyable safari tour that I will never forget in my life for two nights and three days!

Thank you, Francis :)

5/5

We had a wonderful safari with Jocky Tours and Safaris. Huge thanks to Francis for being an amazing guide! Thanks to him, we were lucky enough to see lions, elephants, buffaloes, cheetahs, giraffes, and zebras up close. Everything from communication to service was perfectly organized, safe, and truly memorable. It was worth every penny. Highly recommend this tour!

Our tour guides were amazing!
5/5

We had a great time on our Safari with Jockey Tours.

We were picked up in Nairobi and driven to Maasai Mara. Upon arrival we went on a light evening game drive. After that we had two more full days of Safari before being driven back to our place in Nairobi.

We had two different guides on our Safari, Leroy and Joshua. They were both great tour guides and we saw all the animals we were hoping to see.

In Maasai Mara, we stayed at Flair lodge. The accommodations were clean and comfortable and the hosts were very friendly and welcoming.

Overall, we had a great time and I can highly recommend Jocky Tours.

Best Once in a Life Experience Perfectly Fulfilled
5/5

We went with Jocky Tours for their 6d5n safari. Our guide for the first 3 days of the Safari in Masai Mara and Nakuru was Francis. Jocky Tours made the entire booking experience extremely smooth, providing us with updates and information at the right moment. They handled the handovers after Nakuru to Ambosseli (despite unstable political situation) really well, without sacrificing any part of the safari. Plus the accommodation and food was great; they accommodated our dietary preferences really well. The logistics were definitely superior than our previous experiences in Tanzania and Kenya with other companies.
Now coming to the safaris, we were previously disappointed a bit in Tanzania. But Francis, our guide went above and beyond in tracking animals and gave us some of the most "legendary" sights possible. Things we used to see in Nat Geo or documentaries were no longer on the screen but like 5ft from the safari jeep. He is absolutely great in tracking the Big 5 and giving you the experience of a lifetime. We saw the Big 5 upclose, including a leopard, which is really rare. He also know animal behavior really well and positions the vehicle in the perfect position for the perfect shots. With 16 years of experience under his belt, I would say he is the go-to guide if you are up for a safari in Kenya.
