The experience of a lifetime - absolutely amazing and a real privilege!
5/5

I travelled as a solo woman and joined a group of others. Everyone was really friendly and welcoming and I felt completely safe at all times with Papa (our driver) looking out for us. We saw things I could never have imagined and couldn't believe I was so lucky!! Papa was brilliant at getting us close to the action and in prime spot for photos. I couldn't imagine a trip anywhere else being better - we visited Masai Mara and Lake Nakuru, both of which were incredible! It was organised really well with pick ups and drop offs, all of the accommodation and food was great, and I thought it was worth every penny by the end of the first day, let alone the following three! I can't recommend Jocky Tours and Papa highly enough - look no further for the ideal safari adventure!

Incredible 4 day safari in the Masai Mara and Lake Nakuru national park
5/5

We had an incredible 4 day safari in the Masai Mara and Lake Nakuru National Parks. We saw all of the big 5, among many other amazing animals, thanks to our guide Peter. Peter was an expert at knowing where to find the animals on the reserve, getting us as close to them as possible and providing us with the best experience. Everything was very well organised and timely, we had a truly unforgettable trip.

Very organized, and reliable!
5/5

We had the best time with Jocky Tours doing the 4-day Masai Mara + Lake Nakuru Safari. From the beginning, they were very good at communication. They picked us up from our accommodation, and let us keep our luggage in their office. Our tour guide/driver named Peter was amazing! He was our driver for 4 days, and he did his best to show us the Big 5 animals, and we did! He was also very knowledgeable and knew many things about the animals and Masai Mara. Our trip was very smooth and easy because of Peter. The accommodation for the budget option wasn't too bad as well. We stayed in a glamping style tent for the first 2 nights, and in a hotel for the third night. All the accommodation had everything you needed. Throughout the 4 days, they also fed us really well with buffet style meals with good food options. At the end of the 4 day trip, we also got dropped off to our accommodation with all our luggage that was left in their office. Everything was really organized so well! We highly recommend booking with Jocky Tours, and if you're lucky, you will have Peter as your guide!

5/5

Dennis was our tour guide and an excellent one at that, he was very knowledgeable about all the animals on the safari, The safari was mind blowing... Seen a cheetah on the hunt and kill, found a leopard with a kill up the tree he was in. Seen loads of prides of lion's including one with the end of a feed. With Dennis in charge we managed to see all the big 5..highly recommended

Amazing experience with the best Guide Joseph!
5/5

Joseph is definitely the best guide! Thanks to him and Jocky tours, we had a great time in Kenya for our honey moon.
We saw all the amazing animals we wanted to see. Joseph always seized the best timing and the perfect spot to let us see the wild animals.
Also thanks to Hellen, she supported us timely and gave us the information before we booked the tour. She was the reason we chose Jocky tours, let us felt assured that we can have a memorable and great experience, which we indeed had.
Thank you Jocky tours, we would definitely recommend you to our family and friends!!!!

Once in a lifetime experience with great guide
5/5

We went on a three day private tour with our guide John and couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Starting from the first day, we saw so many different animals and had a lot of fun during the game drives. You could tell that John was enjoying to take us to the best spots as fast as possible and he provided us with a lot of insights. We stayed at the Enkorok Tented hotel which was also really nice. We would definately stay there again (clean, good food and service, comfortable, special experience). We would also recommend to do the private tour if you like to have space to take pictures and be flexible with the time and spots. And if you do not want to pay 5% credit card fees, take the amount for payment in Dollar with you to pay it in cash (we had some trouble withdrawing all that cash in Nairobi). Overall we would like to thank John again for making this experience so special for us!

Peter was a great tour guide! He really welcomed us and made it such a memorable trip!
5/5

The 4 day safari tour was great! Peter was the most welcoming and reliable tour guide! He knew all the information you’d want to know and he really tried his best to make sure we saw all the animals! Peter really made this an enjoyable experience and I can’t give him more praise - he communicated itinerary’s and answered any and all questions in such a professional and genuine manner and made sure to always check we were having a good time!

Fantastic four day safari with Johnny our amazing guide
5/5

Me and my mum had a fantastic time on Jocky tours, we did the four day one where we visited the Masai Mara and also Nakuru. Johny Jackson was our guide/driver he was amazing, he is very informative and passionate about his job which just makes the trip even better. The trip itself was much more affordable than others which was great and for me personally I don’t think it could’ve gotten any better. The office were very good and communication was good aswel. The pick up and drop off was very smooth and the hotels and camps we stayed at were very nice. Everyone was very kind and helpful and Johny Jackson our guide was excellent. He is very passionate, he made sure we saw all of the big five and gave us great photo opportunities as well as being very informative. He has a good sense of humour which made the trip even more fun. Highly highly recommend

5/5

Jocky tours were friendly and easy to deal with, with helpful and welcoming communication throughout. Johny Jackson is great! He’s energetic, fun and really puts 100% effort into getting us to see the animals! We saw the big 5 two times over! Plus some unexpected extras.. The safari was exciting and the animals are amazing!!! Such a privilege to see what Beautiful Kenya has to offer!! Accomodation throughout was well chosen, food was really tasty and our travel companions were great! Would thoroughly recommend!
