The opportunity to get a great tour at a great price!
5/5

Everything worked out perfectly, the program was made as we asked, several options were selected for the hotels, an excellent car, a wonderful guide - Kikitu. The guide helped us see everything, from all types of animals to hunting, was always proactive, customer-oriented, attentive. During the tour, the guide made every effort to find out from the local population where one or another animal could be found at the moment and gave his food to them for this, the desire to please the client was always in the first place. During the tour, the guide created a great mood for us and talked a lot about Kenya and life in it.

Amazing tour with everything we expected and much more!
5/5

Our tour guide made sure that this 3-day safari is to become our best experience of our 10 day stay in Kenya. The park was above expectations. We ere able to get very close to every animal, basically could have pet the lion from the window (not recommended though :D). Our lodge was also much better than expected. Khalifa was flexible and recommended an early start and also agreed to visit a local school near the masai village. This trip was truly the very thing we will still remember after many years! Thank you!

fast response, accurate and caring even before booking
5/5

The 3 day safari trip and the accommodation, AA lodge was really wonderful, it will be a pleasant memory for a lifetime!
Our consultant Minneh was more then helpfull even before we booked the trip with them.
Our guide Khalifa was a really good fellow with a lovely personality, and most importantly with great experience, thanks to which we could see animals and situations far beyond what we expected. Being at the right spot at the right time was his biggest streangth, so we didn't have to wait half a day to see lions, cheetahs and leopards up close, or 1000s of wilderbeasts crossing the river. He just always knew what is happening and where. In an 1.500 km2 park this was very impressive and helpfull for me : )
Lastly the 4x4 jeep was a big plus by itself, and worth the little extra cost. I was very happy to take the ride in it, and not a normal van, because this way we could experience a lot more. (Crossing more extreme pathways, and cutting down on the lengts of the route and saving time for more adventure.)
Despite the more than correct price I think we got a 6* service.
I can only recommend the whole team.
If you book your trip with them, you don't have to worry about anything.

Good value for money
5/5

Is started with good communication with the office and great flexibility in organising our 7 days private safari. Kikitu was our guide that I can fully recommend. We could see his experience in guiding especially in his favourite park Masai Mara. He was also flexible and quickly understood our needs (birdwatching and wildlife photography).
The accommodation were all that we could wish from a budget safari: great food, comfortable beds, warm showers and some exceeded our expectations.

5/5

Jeff was perfect!

He arrived early for our pickup time. We immediately proceeded to Maasai Mara. Along the way, the road became a bit bumpy because it was unpaved. I was sitting in the back seat so I felt the brunt of it. Jeff noticed and invited me to come to the front seat where I would have a better experience. I agreed and he stopped the jeep to let me switch seats. That was just one of the many times that Jeff knew what I needed before I did.

Jeff was very knowledgeable and skilled at locating the animals. We saw 4 out of the big 5 during our safari. The highlight was chasing a hunting cheetah then racing off to see hyenas just as they overtook a wildebeest. It was a perfect ending to our first day at Maasai Mara.

As a travel professional, I had many requests and Jeff was very accommodating. His expertise and attentiveness to my needs as well as the needs of the group created a very enjoyable our experience for us and we look forward to going again.

Amazing and unforgettable experience!
5/5

Everything about Jocky was great since the first minute I contacted them. They were very helpful, and communication was always smooth. Once in Nairobi, my driver Joseph was very patient with me while I had to stop to get some cash. Also, extremely helpful with everything I needed - even a PCR test during the tour. Joseph was always asking us how we were, explaining everything about the Safari and telling us all the animals’ names. He found lions, cheetahs, leopards, rhinos, mongoose and hienas for us. We say babies (lions and cheetahs and all the baby zebras as well), and he was always delighted to see how happy we were while seeing all the animals. I’m happy to recommend not only Jocky Tours but Joseph as well. He’s amazing! Everything was perfect! ❤️

5/5

The Jocky Tours and Safaris is undoubtedly one of the best Safaris Agency I have ever had. I booked my tour with the help of Dany (+254 727 724921) and the pickup person James (+254 722 225107) had the best safari experience of my life. The three days we spend at Mara were full of adventure and beautiful memories. We enjoyed seeing the Africa Big Five, need to specially thank Mr.James our driver who helped us a lot to spot the lions, elephants, cheetahs, and Zebras that roamed in the Mara. The beautiful and rugged terrain coupled by the lions that walked majestically as they waited for their next prey was refreshing. We would send the nights at Rhino Camp , accommodation that summed up the magical safari at Mara. I thank Jocky tours for making this safari memorable and without any furore. I totally recommend their professional services. Happy Safari everyone. Remember to enjoy yourselves!
