He is really kind and safe-driver
I had a great time in Nakuru and Amboseli thanks to my great driver and guide, Albert.
Especially, I could see a herd of elephants with Mt. Kilimanjaro at Amboseli.
This view is unforgettable of my life.

Amazing service, wonderful safari
We had a wonderful time on our 3 day safari in Masai Mara.
Everything went perfectly from the pick up until the drop off.
Our guide, Johnny made sure we saw everything we wanted (even more), every animal from every angle. We saw hunting, love scenes of lions, baby elephants playing and babies of all type of animals.
Johnny was very helpful and knew the answer to all of our questions. :) He was a great driver, made us feel safe.
Thanks again for these incredible memories! 120% satisfied!

A great trip for a great price
If you are visiting Nairobi you can't miss this chance. I really enjoyed what Jocky tours and our guide Francis have prepared for me. First of all, I booked at the last minute and they had no problem answering my questions even late in the evening. The pickup was great and right to my door. The price was much better than alternatives for the same service. The only problem with the trip was that our car broke down twice in two days, but every time we had a replacement ready quickly and even got to spend extra time at the safari as a compensation. I would definitely recommend Jocky Tours if you are planning a safari trip.

Good communication, great Safari experience
In 6 days (Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru and Amboseli) we have seen so many wild Animals. Thanks to Richie who knew the right spots! Overall great experience. For booking, we came directly to the office and had a custom tailored Safari tour scheduled.

Its been everything very clear from the start. All very well organizado.
Everything was very good, the places where we were was nice, specially the Lodge un Amboseli. Our guide, Joshua, is very kind, he took us to the best places on the park, he has been very very nice to us. Very recommended.

Andrew was fantastic!
We had a great experience with Jocky Tours and SafariBooking.com from start to finish. Having a chance to more easily compare companies made me feel more confident in my choice to go with Jocky Tours and I hope to use them again on a return visit. I got quick, helpful responses to all of my questions, payment was easy and actually less than I originally expected. They took care of everything and we loved their choice of hotel accommodations and meals along the way.
Our tour guide was knowledgeable and friendly and truly a joy to get to know. As you may already be aware, roads can by *very* rough and we were very glad we chose the slightly more expensive Jeep 4x4 option than the converted minivan… we had the adventure to helping more than one other vehicle that got stuck and were so grateful to be safe in Andrew’s hands and *helping* rather than the ones stuck!
We got to see every animal in the park and several more than once or close up, except for the rhinoceroses which we didn’t really expect to see as they’re now so rare. All in all a great trip. We highly recommend… oh, and for reference, I’m a single mom traveling with two boys ages 14 and 19, all on our first safari trip.

AMAZING TRIP OF A LIFETIME. THIS TRIP WILL BE HARD TO TOP BECAUSE OF MOSES
I chose the 5 day Safari . Was picked up from my Hotel and brought to Jocky Tours off to firm up rest of payment. I then met Moses my guide and the 5 others who would be joining me on this adventure of a lifetime. 2 days in the Maasai Mara, then Nakuru then Naivasha.
All accommodations and food were outstanding. When you are in the heart of the Maasai Mara you wil stay at Camp Lenchada in a waterproof tent on a cement slab with your own toilet, sink ,and shower. Hot water has to be pumped so you have to ask for it and you get about a minute so be quick. Beds were comfortable and food was fantastic at all accommodations. Moses had such a great adventurous personality and made sure we had many up close and personal experiences. I had to pinch myself a few times to be sure this was all really happening. Lions and cubs , lions eating their fresh kills, a cheetah chasing a baby antelope , smack dab in the middle of a heard of hundreds on Buffalo, witnessing part of the great Wildebeest and zebra migration, Giraffes grazing right in front of us, elephants coming right up to the 4x4 not threatened very peaceful, leopards walking along side our vehicle , Baboons in the middle of the road playing and checking us out, Rhino families grazing within a few feet , a baby rhino playing with mom, and seeing thousands of flamingos take flight After being scared by a hyena . It was all breathtaking and a trip that will never be forgotten. Keep in mind the maasai mara is close to 5 hours from Nairobi so be prepared for a long drive . We made stops along the way to see the great rift Valley and Moses answered so may questions and was very knowledgeable. 15 years of experience, I could not have asked for a better guide. Nakuru and Naivasha are much smaller then the Maasai Mara but just as exciting . Saw the Big 5 numerous times and so much more. Went on a Lake Naivasha boat ride also as well as Hells Gate national park . I met some of the Maasai tribes also and got to learn about their culture. Each destination is a long drive from each other so be prepared to bring wipes for bathroom breaks as alot of toilets didn't supply toilet paper . Be prepared to use the bush for bathroom breaks on long game drive days as well. This was a budget Safari and led me way out of my comfort zones at times but I would do it again in a heartbeat. There is alot of rough terrain so be prepared for alot of bumps and feeling like you are on a carnival ride every single day. Truly an adventure of a lifetime. Minneh was my booking agent and we exchanged about 35 emails prior to me finally deciding to do this.
I live in Chicago-- US and I traveled 18 hours to get to Kenya . I would do it again in a heartbeat. I was with a great group of people and Moses our guide wil never be forgotten. This was truly an experience of a lifetime and one you will never forget. Jocky is very affordable with excellent quality.

All was good but the real safari is only one and a half day .....the remaining is transport to and from....and all information should be made clear in advance...5%fees applicable on payment....and token should be given to village tours. Else it was ok.
