So our tour operator is Hellen, she is very cooperative and take care of everything.
Jockey Tours and Safaris are reliable and their service was remarkable. In this trip I met Johnny (brother from another mother), Johnny answered all my questions patiently and clearly because this is new place for me so I have a lot of questions.
During the safari in Masai Mara Park, he told about all the animals and also gave information about the Masai tribe, his country Kenya etc. I respect his punctuality and his dedication to our safety as well as his work. He is a wonderful person, he tells jokes, makes us laugh. I also learned some words like Kribu, Asante, Jumbo etc. It was a once in a lifetime experience for me because of Johnny Bhai and the Jockey Tour and Safari.
Thanks for such wonderful experience.

Highly recommended
We booked a 5-day trip with Jocky Tours and Safari, covering Nairobi, Masai Mara National Reserve, Narok National Park, Naivasha Hells Gate National Park, and back to Nairobi. The trip was affordable and allowed us to explore the region thoroughly. Our stays at Masai Forest, Narok, and Naivasha were delightful.
Our tour guide, Mr. Johnny Jac, made the experience truly thrilling. On the first day, we had the opportunity to see three of Africa's Big 5 up close. The following days were filled with sightings of all the animals with all big 5 of Africa in Masai Mara.
The safari vehicle was comfortable, equipped with charging plugs, Wi-Fi and water bottles. The Indian food provided throughout the trip was delicious and served with great care.
I highly recommend Jocky Tours and Safari, and I look forward to visiting Masai Mara again with Mr. Johnny Jac's expert guidance.
Asante to Mr. Johnny and Jocky Tours and Safari.

Excellent safari, very recommended
I totally recommend using this company for your tour in the Masai Mara park, the experience was amazing. The Accomodatiok was way better than was I was expected. Our guide Jimmy was making everything feasible to make us live such a great experience. He is very professional.

Very good options for a budget Safari.
We really enjoyed the tour organized by Jocky Tours and Safari. It was well planed and the communication with the organizer via WhatsApp worked really well. However, the information on the exact activities and schedule could have been more.
Still, we would highly recommend the Safari. Our Driver Steve drove safely and handled every Situation really well. The drivers communicated with each other all the time to make sure that we would see animals (e.g. lions and cheetahs).
Lanchata camp was nice too. The food was basic but the tents were nice and the people there very friendly.

Jimmy was the most amazing tour guide!!!
To express the amount of enjoyment we experienced on this safari, I would have to write a novel. However, in short this safari trip was amazing!! My friend and a selected the budget tour of $500 which included a 4 day trip to Maasai Mara and Lake Nakuru. Regardless of which tier you select, meaning budget or more luxury, you will be well taken care for. I would consider myself a more high maintenance person but the even the tent (camp) stay was well above my expectations. We had warm water for showering in the camps and also a flushable toilet system. Our last night we stayed at a hotel which was a great experience after being in the camp for two days prior.
If you have the option to select your guide I would recommend Jimmy, we had the most amazing time being part of his trip. There are not enough words to describe how jimmy grows on you over time. He is the most chill person and also just super kind. He is also a great driver, which is also very important. A lot of the roads are bumpy or one lane (which will require you to bypass cars ahead of you while the other lane is moving in the opposite direction), we always felt safe with him behind the wheel. He is just a 10/10 tour guide and an absolute joy to be around. It’s quite important which tour guide you select considering you will spend the next 4 days with them. Jimmy is also a morning person, which comes in handy considering the wake up times can be 6AM on early safari days!
Lastly, I love taking good TikTok and Instagram content and Jimmy made sure to try to get the best angles and shots for us to get from the animals. We saw so many: Zebra, Gazelle, Wilde Beast, Impala, Baboon, Thompson gazelle, Topi Antelope, Crown cream bird, Giraffes, Grants, Elephant, Hardbeast, Lions, Hyena’s, Cheetahs, Ostrich, Common eland, The Kenyan bird, Pumba & Timon (Lion King), Hippos, Crocodile, Rhino, Jackals, Flamingos + many more that I forgot the names for.
Truly the best trip!! One for the books.

Amazing
This tour was unbelievable. I did this tour together with my friend. It was so well arranged with Jocky tours (special thanks to Jimmy the best guide ever), for a very good price too. We’ve paid like $500, for a four day tour, in two different areas Maasai Mara & Lake Nakuru. We had 2 luggage each. We just packed a smaller bag to take with us on Safari, we could leave our luggage at the office. They keeped it safe for us. Good service.
The first day we arrived at the Camp. This was our stay for the first 2 nights. It was a pretty good stay, above expectations. It was a luxe lodge tent with a own bathroom, warm water and flushable toilet even. Breakfast, lunch and dinner was served, delicious meals. There was security at the camp, what made me feel safe, since we were sleeping in a tent. Since traveling is included the first day we did a gamedrive for around 3/4 hours with sunset. We already saw so many different animals in those couple of hours. Many elephants, zebra’s, different breeds of gazelles and antelopes, lions, giraffes, buffaloes, wildebeest et cetera.
Day two we had a full gamedrive with sunrise. This drive was from 06.15 till 17.00, a full day. We saw lions eating a buffalo, hyenas, hippo’s, crocodiles, cheetahs, warthogs, meerkats and many more. This day we had a outside lunch, in the middle of Maasai Mara surrounded by animals. This experience was simply amazing. We also had a stop at the border of Tanzania which was extraordinary.
Day three we had a visit at the Maasai village, which was very educational and interesting. This visit is optional but I do recommend. After that we drove to Lake Nakuru and had a break for lunch. That ride was about 5/6 hours. Our last stay was a hotel. Here they had multiple facilities such as a swimming pool, massage and a gym.
Day four, the last day, we started early in Lake Nakuru. Around 07.00 am. This is a totally different area compared to Maasai Mara. I really liked it. We saw flamingo’s, pelicans, white rhinos and a family of lions up close. This experience was very rare and a dream coming true. Furthermore we had a stop at a waterfall in the park, just beautiful.
I highly recommend this tour. Special thanks to Jimmy our guide. Jimmy is a very good driver, the roads aren’t easy but he made us feel safe and comfortable the entire trip. He made sure we had a clear view of the animals and that everyone could make some good content. He has all the patience in the world. He knows much about the animals and areas. Jimmy likes a conversation and is fun too! I think if we didn’t had Jimmy as our guide, we wouldn’t had the same experience. Jimmy’s presence made the trip. Jimmy for president!

Everything was amazing!
We have just finished a 5 day private tour visiting Masai Mara, Nakuru and Naivasha. Everything about the trip was fantastic but especially our guide - Jeff. As a guide, he was professional, personable, informative and good fun! He is an incredibly skilled driver and we always felt we were in safe hands! He went out of his way to ensure we got the best view of the animals we spotted and we got amazing photos of elephants, many lions, giraffes, buffalo, gazelle, warthogs, rhinos and much much more! We would not hesitate in recommending Jeff to anyone - he truly made memories for us that we will treasure!

It was Enjoyable, Memorable and Insightful.
It was a very good safari indeed. The journey, the game drive which was the highlight for me of course and the accommodation were top notch. I can say that the reality did exceed the expectation and I would definitely do it again.
