Exciting and funny
It was my first safari and it was very amazing. A lot animals and very very close.
I was 3 days in Masai Mara with two different drivers: Joshua and Martin. Thank you both of them. They were very safe and good driver, very kind and funny. Thank you very much.
You can see animals on sunset, during de day and very early in the morning.
Good place to sleep and very good meal.
Very very good experience.

An excellent trip with friendly people and good service.
The Safari was excellent and our driver was both knowledgable and an excellent driver. We saw a lot, enjoyed the company and had a very fun trip. We were picked up close to the advertised time and dropped off even before the scheduled time. We had plenty of food and loved eating lunch with the giraffe. Our camp was neat and clean with meals on time and quite tastey. We would use jockytours again.

Great animals and sights!
I took the five day tour and had companions on the standard 3-days to Maasai Mara and was by myself for the last 2 days. Of course, Maasai Mara was wonderful (the optional visit to the Maasi village is highly recommended.). The intriguing part of the trip is Hell's Gate national park where you can bike and hike, a pleasant change from being in the van. Nothing like riding right by giraffes crossing the path! Yo kinda have to go with the flow. I'd recommend bring along some sealed snacks.

Jocky Tours - Very Good Value Budget Tour
After a lot of search for Budget Tours to Masai Mara, I chose Jocky Tours .I chose their 3 day Masai Mara Tour. I chose them because they were the cheapest tours available. I kept my expectations low. On Day one, We were picked up from a residence in Nairobi around 8am and was driven in a Toyota Van. The Van driver / Guide was an amazing driver. The roads in Masai Mara are a bit treacherous as they get very muddy during rain. Van is not a four wheel drive and one has to be an expert in driving in those conditions. We got to Masai Mara around 4pm and was immediately taken around for an evening game drive. Next day it was a full day game drive. On day three we left for early morning game drive and then headed back to Nairobi.
The Van: There was lot of mud in the seat. The tour company should clean up the van very well before picking up the guests.
The Camp accommodation: We stayed in a tent. It was clean, It had comfortable beds , mosquito nets. Electricity is available only for 4 hours between 6pm and 10pm and for about 3 hours in the morning. In night it is pitch dark. One should carry lights. The water in the camp is horrible. We were forced to skip shower for couple of days. Buy big can of drinking water from outside.
The Guide: The guide hardly spoke about the geography, the animals etc. However he showed all sorts of animals including a leopard which is hard to spot. All the drivers have radio and many tour operators share the information about animals with each other. The guy was very brave. He parked the van very close to cheetahs, lions as if he was parking them close to a dog. We infect took a selfie with a lion.
Food: Food was okay.

Once in a life time experience
Our experience was excellent. From the beginning the communication with Erick was quick and he answered all my questions. The itinerary was followed perfectly and our experience was amazing. Next time I would probably skip lake Nakuru. The trip was too long for the time we spent in there. The guide was ok, I would have liked a bit more explanations though. Overall, Masai Mara exceeded our expectations and having done it with Jocky Tours allowed us to enjoy it a lot.
Apart from the safari, we did a city tour in Nairobi as soon as we landed. The driver was waiting for us on time, and the last day they dropped us at the airport.

Awesome experience.
The Safari was awesome. Everything was up to the mark. Only one thing I felt was the last day of the tour ended in just 2 hours. We could have been longer in the park and seen some more wildlife. The first day took us almost full day to reach the destination. We hardly got to see anything on the first day. Second day was the awesomest.
Third was disappointment.
