Amazing Experience
Our 4 night safari tour was an absolutely amazing experience with Jocky Tours. We visited the Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru and Lake Naivasha. We also had the opportunity to visit a local school and the Masai village where we meet the local tribes people.
We had a very friendly guide called Johny, he made our experience unforgettable. Spotting animals in the wild was a natural talent he possessed and positioning his off-road vehicle for the perfect picture was outstanding. He answered also our questions and kept us safe throughout our tour. All I can say is that it was an awesome experience, with lovely food, clean accommodation and excellent value for money.
If you’re thinking about booking with Jocky Tours, do so with confidence, you will not be disappointed!

Fantastic experience
Great safari experience with the brilliant, friendly and knowledgeable guide Raymond. He made sure we would see all big 5 in the park by extending safari hours beyond what contracted initially. Strongly recommended, hopefully you will get a chance to go with Raymond.

Absolutely amazing, he went above and beyond to make our experience something to remember!
From start to finish the experience was faultless. Johny did everything to accommodate us and made our trip fantastic. He was friendly, flexible and good fun. He made the trip memorable and I'm so glad that we were able to spot The big 5 and the ugly 5. The food and accommodation was well worth the price and the trip overall was excellent value for money. I will definitely be recommending Jocky Tours and Safaris to my friends and Johny J in particular. 5 stars!

It was a blast - once in a lifetime experience!
It was an incredibly wonderful experience! We were traveling with a group of 6 people in a jeep for 6 days and visited the Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru and Amboseli National Park. Communication with Jocky Tours was easy and the whole tour was well organized.
Our driver Francis was the best guide we could have asked for. He was very funny, open and always in a good mood. He knows his stuff incredibly well and with his experience we have been able to discover and observe all kinds of animal species including the Big Five on the many different game drives. This would not have been possible without him. He is also a very safe driver and we always felt comfortable. We had a lot of fun and will remember all the wonderful experiences for a very long time!
Booking through Jocky Tours is definitely recommended and you should ask for Francis - then you will have an unforgettable experience!

Unforgettable experience
We booked a 5 night 6 day safari tour through Jocky and had an amazing experience. We visited the Maasai Mara, Lake Nakuru, Lake Naivasha, and Amboseli. We arranged for a mid-range tour and found the price and service to be absolutely impeccable.
Our tour guide, Alex, was so knowledgeable about the wildlife we saw and was patient when we had questions or needed to see things. He was a great ambassador to teaching us about Kenyan culture and life!
He ensured we were very safe and comfortable— he went above and beyond as a guide and I would take another tour with Alex! He even encouraged us to try a cultural visit which was so impactful to see— it helped us to really conceptualize the climate catastrophe as experienced by tribal villagers and animals and reinforced why conservation and preservation is so important!
Prices for mid-range safaris were so reasonable and included really beautiful, clean lodging and delicious food. If you book directly through Jocky, you can find great, economical safaris that fit your needs. We were so happy with the combination of Maasai Mara, Nakuru, and Amboseli. We got a great taste of southern Kenya and cannot wait to return.

Jocky Safaris made the experience smooth and easy, quick response times and very fair price.
Our 4-day safari was more then we could have asked for. It exceeded our expectations and was worth every dollar. Our tour guide, Yasin, was knowledgeable about all things Africa, he showed us all the animals, over 100+ species of mammals and birds, we came to see. His driving was remarkable and we felt safe the whole trip. Our agenda was very clear and we were always on time. The lodging was good and very fair for the budget we had. This trip was our honeymoon and we made life lasting memories. Our only regret was not spending more time.

Amazing!
Everything exceeded expectations! We were picked up as planned and everything went well right from the beginning. We experienced more than we thought we were going to. Yasin was our wonderful guide and we could not asked for anything better. He was so resilient went looking for wildlife, yet so respectful to nature.

The professionals
We had a wonderful 8 days safari guided by Joshua, from Jocky Tours and Safari.
We visited Masai Mara, Nakuru, Naivasha, Hell”s Gate and Amboseli.
He knows the parks roads, the animals habits, so that he created the opportunity to see and observe the animals.
In 1 day and a half in Masai Mara we saw the big 5. Amazing!
We felt safe, we received good advices.
I recommend Jocky Tours and Safari!

a beautiful 7-day Safari
Big kudos to Jockey Tours and especially to our safari guide and driver James! Jockey was the only safari agency (and we requested many) to send us a detailed itinerary of the safari in advance. The contact with Jockey was smooth, courteous and professional. We paid $100 USD in advance and the rest on the spot in Nairobi at the Jockey Tours office. We had chosen a 7-day safari (Masai Mara, Nakuru, Lake Naivasha, Hells Gate, Amboseli) in a small (up to 8-person) group with the 4x4 jeep - and the decision was absolutely right, because the different national parks differ not only in the animals you encounter there, but also show you how incredibly diverse and breathtaking the beauty of nature in Kenya is. While Masai Mara is like a steppe, Nakuru is a green oasis at a lake that reminded us of a jungle. Hells Gate shows itself as a canyon and in Amboseli there is a swamp area at Lake Amboseli where birds and of course a myriad of flamingos find their home. Our guide James did an absolute TOP job. He was able to give us a lot of knowledge about the animals as well as about the vegetation and background of the parks. His first words were: "On the next 7 days we are a family and I am the Mom & Dad" - and that's exactly how it felt, like a great family trip with a multinational group with whom we all got along wonderfully, laughed a lot and gained great impressions. In addition, James and his colleagues at Jockey helped us with further travel planning and ticket booking for the train from Nairobi to Mombasa - free of charge!
From us therefore a 5 out of 5 rating and we unconditionally recommend Jockey Tours and James!
