Highlight of our Kenya Trip
5/5

We were so lucky to have Solomon as our guide for the Safari. It was four of us and we booked a 3-day Safari via Jocky with Day-1 spent in covering Naivasha and Nakuru, Day-2 spent in traveling from Nakuru to Masai Mara and an evening game drive, Day-3 on a full day game drive in Masai Mara and Day-4 in heading back from Masai Mara to Nairobi.

Our experience of making the reservations through Jocky was smooth, but the real highlight of our trip was our guide Solomon. Solomon has over 15 years of experience of being a Safari guide and knows Masai Mara inside out. He is a great professional and an amazing person. During the Safaris he was extremely proactive and always prioritized our comfort and wildlife sightings. Apart from being an amazing guide in the parks, he was also fun to hang out with. He has a great sense of humor and entertained us with a number of stories of his encounters with wildlife in the park.

We had a really memorable trip to Naivasha, Nakuru, and Masai and I can honestly say that a HUGE part of that was because of Solomon.

So if you are planning your visit to Masai Mara and want to have an amazing time, you Better Call Sol.

A ray of sunshine
5/5

I had never been on a Safari and was not sure what to expect. Jocky tours, and especially Raheem, our driver, made sure that our experience was nothing short of magical. Raheem is experienced, professional, friendly, and, extremely knowledgable. We were greeted early every morning with a big smile and taken to explore the corners of the Maasai Mara and Nakuru parks, seeing more animals than we thought possible in their national habitat and learning interesting facts about the parks, animals, and culture. Thank for making our Safari experience unforgettable!

Amazing, one life experience with an amazing guide
5/5

I took a 3 day Safari tours with Jocky Tours. It was just amazing! Our driver and guide Khalifa was so knowledgeable about Masai Mara area. We had explored many African mammals thanks to him. We also discovered Masai Maran tribe people. Khalifa was so kind like a brother during the tour. I also made great friends from different countries by this tour. So, just take and enjoy this tour.

Great way to see Masai Mara!
5/5

Had an absolutely fabulous time on this tour! Lenchada Camp was incredible to stay at, with cozy full-size beds and a full-scale bathroom inside the tent. Joshua was a knowledgeable and experienced driver and guide, who ensured that I saw all of the big 5 and so much more! The upgrade from the minivan to the Land Cruiser is definitely worth the $20 I paid--a much bigger vehicle and a better ride. Would recommend to all, including solo female travelers.

Great luck and great guide
5/5

We had a great time in Amboseli. Our driver Andrew picked us up at our hotel, and explained what our first day would be like. After the trip to the accommodation we went into the reserve for our first spotting. Andrew kept contact with other drivers via phone and radio so that he could give us the best possible experience. When we got back at the accommodation our driver suggested to leave early next morning for a long trip instead of two separate trips, morning and evening. This way we would have better chances at seeing all the animals, since one long trip allowed us to drive deeper inside the reserve. Offcourse he could not guarantee us anything, but it would greaten our chances. And that it did. We got very lucky, seeing every possible animal up close. From cheetah to elephant, hippo’s, giraffes, a waterbuffalo, zebras, gazelles, warthogs, everything in close range to our vehicle. Unfortunately we forgot to bring binoculars, so we got very lucky being able to see al animals up close. Later on that day we got to see two lions as well, a bit further in the distance. Andrew arranged vegan lunch for my girlfriend and myself, which tasted great. The next day we did a morning drive and after that we drove back to our hotel ik Nairobi. I feel like we got very lucky on our safari, both with all the animals we spotted as with our amazing guide and driver Andrew.

Amazing experience for a very affordable price
5/5

The information provided by Jocky tours was extensive and i got quick responses to all my questions.
As a student, the budget 5d day safari was an affordable option, and it far exceeded my expectations. Nice accommodations and meals.

And a special thanks to our driver, Joshua, who made this safari an amazing experience, showing us so many cool animals!

James is the only guide I will explore Africa with & highly recommend requesting him.
5/5

We went on an 11-day safari and I can't imagine any of these days without our amazing guide, James. Jocky provided plenty of water and great accommodations. There were a few lodges I would recommend spending the higher tier pricing, but overall they were all great stays. Sweetwater in Olpejeta is a must-stay!
