IT was absolutely perfect!!!!!!
Everything was perfect, the pick up at the starting point, the facilities, the guide we had during the safari.
Above all, the guide (Joshua) was very good, he found out where all the animals were, he explained very interesting things to us and it was very pleasant during the 5 days that our experience lasted.

Amazing experience
We did the 3-day Masai Mara safari and it was amazing. We saw so many animals and they guides were great.

A great 3 day budget safari to the Masai Mara that surpassed all expectations!
Excellent communication from making the initial reservation with Minneh through to Daniel and safari guide John! Minneh was so helpful and answered any questions I had, keeping me informed about specifics for my pickup. Daniel the driver collected me at the time specified and as traffic was really bad going into central Nairobi from Karen, he was able to plan a route that intercepted the tour bus and did not delay anyone. The safari driver John that we spent the most amount of time with, gave us a safari to never forget. We saw the big 5 and so many more animals up closely. The van was spacious enough for those onboard with plenty of water for all and whilst there are larger, more plush vehicles in the Masai Mara, you’re seeing the same animals driving the same bumpy roads for a fraction of the price of some of the other tours. This truly made it excellent value for money and John delivered informative commentary throughout. The Rhino camp was comfortable enough with a hot shower after it warmed up. The food was tasty too. Overall I’d highly recommended it if you’re looking for a budget safari with a good company.

Great experience for a good price
I booked my 5 days safari tour including Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru and Hell's Gate just 2 days before the start. I requested the tour via safaribookings, got an offer really quickly, confirmed it and was ready to go.
The tour started from Nairobi with our excellent driver Kikitu , we went to the Masai Mara and saw a cheetah and lions already on our afternoon drive. The next day we spent from early morning till late afternoon in the park, went to the mara river and saw all possible animals except the rhino. The highlight were 9 lions eating a zebra. The next day we visited a masai village, which is optional and a bit too much touri show, but also interesting.
Then we started the way back and I switched the car in the middle of the way, because I had 2 days more and headed to Nakuru, while the others went back to Nairobi. The next day I did with a new small group the game drive in Lake Nakuru Nationalpark and finallly saw the Rhinos. Big 5 complete. I highly recommed to add Lake Nakuru because the chance to see Rhinos is high, while it is very low in Masai Mara.
After that also the people of the new group went back, while I came to a hotel in Naivasha.
On the last day it was only me, so I got a private tour to Hell's Gate, took a selfie with a zebra, because you can go out of the car in that park and we went through a beautiful canyon till the end to the devil's bedroom. After Hell's Gate it was also time for me to go back to Nairobi, which we reached in the afternoon.
I was very happy with the tour, the drivers and guided were all very nice and spoke good english, accomodation was okay for the price and safari experience was absolutly amazing. So if you look for a budget tour with a great safari experience, just book with Jocky Tours and Safaris.

Great experience and the tour! You'll get your money's worth
We did a 5 day tour with Jocky Tours and it was an exceptional experience. There are so many tour companies out there with different programs and prices, but after all, it all comes down to whether you'll have the good guides and Jocky Tours had just that. Our guide was Evans and he knows his stuff and he is professional, friendly, and fun!
I highly recommend Jocky Tours!

Impressive tour
I had an excellent out going tour guide (Kikitu) he made the experience fun and really interesting.
Some of the hotels used could be better upgraded. Asides that, the sights were really good and eye opening , I am glad I went on the tour

Perfect
Jocky tours exceeded our expectations, the whole trip was well organised, on time, and all very enjoyable,
our driver James was very informative and very sociable, and went out of his way to make sure all went well, all in all a fantasic trip and we would highly recommend.
Best safari ever, accomodating, well organised and well priced!
Such a good safari, we saw two kills, 4/5 of the big five! John the guide went out of his way to make sure we had a good time. Accomodation basic but all you need, and the staff are lovely and food is great!
Overall excellent experience!

A great combination of price-worthiness and exclusivity
We were looking for a condensed, exclusive two-day tour to Masai Mara and Jocky Tours turned out to be a great choice. Our experienced guide Joshua took good care of us from the moment we met and together we shared an unforgettable journey. Going from Nairobi via the Great Rift Valley, Narok and through Masai regions was a unique experience by itself, and the stories and experiences Joshua shared with us during the days added huge value to our trip. Masai Mara was even more breathtaking than expected and after two intensive days we had encountered all the wildlife you could wish for. We had a great stay in a tented camp close to the park, with friendly staff and members from a nearby Masai tribe welcoming us in a great way.
While the safari tour even exceeded our expectations, the planning proceeded very smoothly as well - from the initial contacts with Minneh to Joshua dropping us off at our hotel. I would definitely recommend Jocky Tours for anyone who is looking for a great combination of price-worthiness and exclusivity.
