Excellent 3 day trip to Amboseli Safari
At first we were a bit cautious after reading some of the reviews but for us the 3 day trip to Amboseli safari (Kibo camp) was nothing short of perfection.
The initial pick up, our guide, the actual trip, the camp including food and overall service was great. We were actually surprised by standard of the camp, its size and food that was provided.
Big shout out to our guide, Andru, who provided us with great service throughout the 3 days.
Thanks

A wonderful honeymoon with a perfect Safari
This was our first safari and it was even more special because it was our honeymoon. We did a 6 day safari (Maasai Mara, Lake Nakuru and Amboseli), and we took two optional activities (Lake Naivasha boat and walking Tour and Maasai Mara village in Amboseli). Our driver and guide was Dickson. He has ben and excellent guide, always at our disposal and very attentive with us. Thanks to our guide, we had the oportunity to see the big five and many other animals…and placing us in a perfect position to take the best photos. Dickson give us a good explanation about the animals as well as interesting things about the country during our journey. We felt very well with him during the safari and thanks to him the experience was even better!
The Lodges/Camps we stayed we’re Enkorok in MM, Nakuru Sopa Lodge and Kibo Camp in Amboseli. All of them top quality, excelent service and food. We couldnt be more happy with the 5-star experience…!!
I would recommend both the tour and specially Dickson to anyone wanting to go on safari !!!
Thank you Jocky and thank you Dickson!!

Professional
I was on 5-Day Masai Mara-Nakuru-Naivasha-Joining Group Budget.
Every thing was great since beginning pickup from hotel on time then joining the group with our great guide Mr. Jeff
The tour was above expectations in terms of honesty, accommodation, food and well planning. Thanks to our guide Mr. Jeff who was the main role play of trip success based on his experience, professionalism, cooperation and spotting the big 5 😍👌

Dickson is the best driver you can have!
Dickson (our driver) was the best! He has so much experience in being a game driver and knows where to go and which position is better to see the wild animals and take the best photos! He also knows how to take a good photo of you and your partner😜. He is so kind and knows so many things about animals. We learnt so much with him! In addition, we have watched the big 5! 😍 So, if you have the chance, ask for him. And if not, I wish you have the same luck than my husband and I to have him as your driver through the safari. Thank you so much, Dickson!
Our experience with Jocky Tours is good. They have been kind and they helped us as much as they could.
So, we recommed to do the 6 days private safari tour with Jocky Tours, and especially with Dickson! Thank you!

Safe and comfortable safari
I recently went on a safari trip and had an unforgettable experience, thanks in large part to the mid-range accommodation, which was both comfortable and well-maintained. The highlight of the trip, however, was undoubtedly our driver, Jeff. His expertise made the safari truly exceptional. Jeff's deep knowledge of the animals and their behaviors enriched our experience, and his friendly, professional demeanor made each day enjoyable. Thanks to Jeff, we were able to spot and learn about a wide range of wildlife that we might have otherwise missed. If you’re planning a safari, having someone like Jeff as your driver is an absolute must!

Great safari was an experience of a lifetime
All three locations for the Safari offered something different. Masai Mara was huge and we saw many lions, elephants, giraffes, cheetahs and a leopard as well as other game. Nakuru offered Rhino's, flamingos and another leopard. Ambolessi offered vast plains filled with elephants. The hotels on the tour were mainly good and as expected although the hotel in Nakuru looked much better in photos, we also had to move rooms due to no hot water. Masai marra and Ambolessi were both very clean.
Our guide Leroy was very knowledgeable he gave insight to all of the animals and had many facts to share. He also knew a great deal of the masai people, which was very interesting to learn about.
We had on issue where at one point the van was quite cramped due to 8 people in the van but after speaking with Leroy he sorted the problem out at the next stop and swapped 2 people out of the van. It was very comfortbale with 6 in the van. Although Nakuru was very long Leroy persisted and we arrived safely.

Easy, stress free
The tour was stress free, the tour guide Jimmy got us so close to the animals and the lion was right outside the window, he made sure we found all the animals we were looking to see.
Just to note - there was an extra fee for cycling at hells gate, but my itinerary didnt mention this and it sounded like it was included in my trip.

The tour operator is reliable and trustworthy, providing an excellent and immersive safari experienc
Our recent 7-day safari through Maasai Mara, Lake Nakuru, and Amboseli National Parks was an unforgettable adventure, significantly enhanced by our guide, Sadam. Each park offered its own unique experiences, from exhilarating wildlife sightings to breathtaking landscapes. We enjoyed numerous opportunities to see lions, leopards, cheetahs, elephants, antelopes, and a diverse array of birds. Witnessing nature in all its glory and experiencing the harmonious balance of the ecosystem was truly awe-inspiring. The camping and lodging were also unique and met acceptable standards, adding an exciting dimension to our trip.
Sadam’s expertise and attentiveness were invaluable. His remarkable skill in spotting wildlife and providing insightful information made each game drive both engaging and educational. Beyond his extensive wildlife knowledge, Sadam also shared fascinating cultural insights, enriching our understanding of Kenya. He was always eager to help us find the best spots for photos and maximize our chances of witnessing dynamic wildlife action. A standout moment was witnessing a rare and thrilling scene where two lions expertly coordinated a hunt for wildebeest and gazelles.
However, there are a few areas for improvement. We encountered some delays, particularly at Lake Nakuru, due to payment issues and minor logistical hiccups. Additionally, the itinerary provided by the tour company was somewhat vague regarding timings. A more detailed schedule outlining the duration of game drives, transportation between locations, and other key details would enhance communication and set clearer expectations.
Despite these minor issues, we highly recommend this safari to anyone seeking an immersive wildlife experience in Kenya. The pricing was very reasonable, and the tour company proved to be reliable and trustworthy. We are grateful for this opportunity and thankful to the tour operators for their excellent service.
