An amazing trip, well organised
Our guide was Johnny and he was fantastic.
He was a extremely helpful and knowledgeable of the Masai Mara park…
He ensured that we saw the Big 5 and alll the other animals in the Park.
He made the entire trip memorable for lifetime.
Cheers my friend

Wonderful Safari Tour
We have booked Jocky Tours & Safaris as it seemed the best price for the value, and it indeed fulfilled our expectations.
We have done 6 days of Safari and visited 3 locations. Each day we have seen many animals and took some amazing photos.
Our guide, Jeff, was always accomodating to our needs and wishes and is very knowledgeble about the animals and their way of living.
The accomodation at all three locations was pleasant, there was a variety of food offered for each meal.
Overall was the safari tour very enjoyable experience, I would certainly highly recommend Jocky Tours & Safaris and their guide Jeff!!!

Amazing experience
Everything according to the plan. Our guide-driver James put his best to satisfy us looking all the time for animals and knowing the area very well was easy for him to spot them.

Informative and helpful
Our drivers were happy to tell us facts about the animals we saw on our safaris. We felt safe, and the tour ran smoothly. Masai Mara was beautiful, and I’m happy they shared it with us. Excellent service as well, they allow you to charge your phone if needed. And the car has good leg space :)

Very friendly and experienced.
They were very nice, easy to talk to and gladly answerd all our questions. They adapted well to our group and made the best experience possible for us. We got close to the animals and could see them very well from the car. Everything has been very safe and good, a great experience!

Less than 3h of Game Drive for a 2 day tour in Masai Mara - Avoid it!
Terrible experience. I absolutely recommend against the 2 days 1 night tour to Masai Mara as the total game drive was 2.45h for both days. It's simply unacceptable. I have been to daily safaris of 5-6h of game drive.
Some good things though: My guide was great, the accommodation and food were good for being a budget safari.
Tour happened as follows:
Day 1: pick-up at 7am in Nairobi. Departure at 8am. Arrival at camp at 3pm. Game drive started at 5pm. It finished at 6.30pm.
Day 2: pick-up at 6.15am. Game drive starts at 6.45am. Game drive ended at 8.30am. I arrived at Nairobi at 3pm.
The drive from Nairobi to Camp will never be less than 6h and it can be up to 8h,
Take at least the 3 day tour or don't do it!
For respect for your time and well-being it is a brutal waste of time, money and energy don't do a 2 days 1 night tour. It was so frustrating to have ended a 2 day tour at 8.30am! I was shocked.
They never offer to refund partially or offered a discount for another safari.
I cannot recommend Jocky Agency. Avoid them!

Posted on Nov 28, 2022Hi Antonio
Its very unfortunate that you are putting the blame squarely on us, its should be known that you had booked a 3 days 2nights safari with us, which you later reduced to 2 days 1 night on short notice. We explained to you the pros and cons of joining a 2 days safari and even gave you an itinerary to go through which you subscribed to and agreed to proceed with a 2 day tour over 3 days tour.
We talked over phone about this while on safari, but you never brought forward a compensation claim but instead you told me it was your own fault on reducing your stay by 1 day. Its amazing that you have gone forth to write an official negative complaint even though it was your own idea on reducing your stay.
Regardless, we would like to pass our apology for not being able to convince you enough to drop the safari all together if you couldn't manage a 2 days Private safari or the initial 3 days group safari, which for sure would have offered you more time in the wild and would have been more relaxed safari. We apologize for any inconveniences caused.

Unique experience
We had a great time in several parks (Mara, Amboseli, Naivasha/Nakuru) and saw everything there is to see. A big thanks to our driver Jeff, a good and experienced driver is very important if you want to spot all the animals! Thanks to Jocky tour as well for all the planning!
