5 stars for Davy Mnyama
5/5

I really liked my guide Davy Mnyama and would love to work with him again. He was excellent over the two days I was with him. It was incredible how much we could see in such a small time.

For Jocky overall, I feel they can communicate things a lot better. Overall everything went well, but you really have to chase them for answers or responses. Based on chatting to other safari tourists I felt the prices were good.

Excellent
5/5

I would like to express my sincere appreciation and gratitude to James Gichina for making our Masai Mara safari such an extraordinary and unforgettable experience.
James was an exceptional driver and guide who went above and beyond to ensure we had the best possible wildlife experience. Thanks to his dedication, knowledge, patience, and incredible efforts, we were fortunate enough to see all of the Big Five! He did everything possible to locate the animals and position us as close as safely and appropriately possible, giving us the best views and wonderful opportunities to capture perfect photographs.
Beyond his outstanding guiding skills, James was incredibly friendly, polite, punctual, and accommodating. He listened to all our requests with a smile and was always willing to go the extra mile, even beyond his regular duties, to make sure we were happy and comfortable throughout the safari.
His passion for his work, genuine kindness, and commitment to creating memorable experiences truly set him apart. He made us feel well cared for and turned our safari into something truly special.
I wholeheartedly recommend James Gichina to anyone planning a safari in the Masai Mara. If you have the opportunity to have him as your guide and driver, you will be more than happy. You can be confident that he will do his very best to make your experience exceptional and unforgettable.
Thank you, James, for your outstanding service, dedication, and warm hospitality. I will always remember our wonderful safari experience with great appreciation! Asante sana

James Gichina is an amazing safari guide! Incredible Masai Mara experience. Highly recommended!
5/5

My experience with Jocky Tours and Safaris was exceptional from start to finish, and I truly couldn't recommend them more!
From our very first inquiry, their team was prompt, transparent, and incredibly helpful, customizing our itinerary to perfection. However, the absolute highlight of our safari was our guide, James. Thanks to his incredible driving skills and masterful sense of orientation in the vast reserve, we managed to track down and see all of the Big Five in the Masai Mara! His deep knowledge of the wildlife, combined with his warm and engaging personality, made every moment unforgettable.
They were punctual, professional, and delivered 100% on every promise. We couldn't be happier with how everything turned out.
If you want a safe, authentic, and professionally run safari in Kenya, look no further than Jocky Tours and Safaris. Five stars all around!

Truly unique experience
5/5

A truly unique once in lifetime experience. Seeing incredible wildlife in their natural habitat, some animals we may never see again, was unforgettable. Papa John brought the animals, their behaviours and the spectacular landscape to life. The experience was made even more enjoyable by a great group of fellow travellers. An opportunity I would recommend to anyone not to miss in their lifetime.
