Great value for money. You Will See a lot of animals.
We took the Masai Mara and Lake Nakuru safari. In the first place we saw even a leopard, in Nakuru, not many flamingos but we saw rhinos. Anthony our driver did his best for us to see as many animals possible. Lions, chita,zebras etc.
We stayed at lodges and was more expensive but really worthy.

6 days safari (Masai Mara, Nakuru, Naivashi, Amboseli)
Everything was as agreed and even more. I expected tent-houses in a camps, but is was a normal houses with walls, doors, windows. We saw all the animals, which are expected including rhino, leopards, flamingos, giraffes, crocodiles, hippos, a lot of lions, hyenas and other animals, made a photo with elephants and other animals on the background of Kilimanjaro. No hidden fees, extra charges, you are considered as a person and not as a wallet with money.

Great Experience!
We had great experience with Jocky Tours. We spent 3 days in Masai Mara and it was great.
One of the most important things in gaming drive is skill of driver. Their driver is very skillful and he contacted with their team all the time. So we could watch a male lion eating fresh meat, lots of giraffes, elephant showering and so on.
They offer very reasonable price and I recommend this tour company.

Excellent
It was a well organized trip covering several National parks (Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru and Naivasha). We were pleased with our safari experience with Jocky Tours. Our safari trip far exceeded our expectations. The accommodations were wonderful luxury lodges with great facilities. I also thank John our driver/guide who was very friendly and deeply knowledgeable about parks and the characteristics of all the animals and birds. The price of safari was reasonable. Thanks to Minneh.
Highly recommended safaries with this company!

Wonderful experience of safari with Jocky Tours and Safaris
We had a wonderful tour of 7 days with JockyTours. We were very lucky to have seen the big-five animals in Kenya. We met 20 more lions at least. And we saw that a lion family were eating a giraffe. Lot of various animals and their mutual devouring in Masai Mala, fire-like flamingos on Lake Bogoria, leisurely elephants and giraffes with Mt. Kilimanjaro background, many unknown birds on Lake Naivasha and countless zebras and wildebeests all over the Kenya grasslands, deeply impressed us.
JockyTours is a professional company with very good credit. In order to meet our requirements, they arranged not only safari and scenery sightseeing, but also some project site viewing so that the tour had more pleasure and meaning. The guide driver is a kindly, patient and responsible man. Because of his experience, we got the more opportunities to see so many animals.
The regrets was that we had no chance to see wildbeests crossing the Mala River and catching/killing action between animals.
As for accommodation, Amboseli Kibo Tented Camp. and Naivasha Sopa Lodge were excellent, Mara Lenchada camp was average. The worst experience is: Golden Palace in Nakuru was terrible because of its noise overnight and impolite of its kitchener and servant.
Other bad experience after safari is: our cellphone was robbed in the street and we were extorted by two policemen at the airport in Nairobi. The public security and anti-corruption should be greatly improved in Kenya.

Great safari!
Me and a friend did the safari of Jocky Tours in the beginning of October. We had a great time with a very nice driver and some cool people in our van. In the first 3 days in the Masai Mara we saw a lion, elephants, buffalo and cheetah and a lot of other cool people. In the last day at Lake Nakuru we saw the Rhino which completed the Big 5! Overall great experience, nice accommodations, good food, fun driver!

Wonderful few days on Safari
We were picked up in Nairobi by the very punctual Amos our guide and driver for the few days.
From there we were taken on a 4 hour drive through Nairobi to the beautiful Amboselli Sopa Lodge overlooking Kilimanjiro. All through this time Amos, when asked answered any questions we had. He was very obliging with everyone in our group. We were then brought to Amboselli National Park and we got extremely lucky seeing elephants, lions, any amount of zebras within the first hour. It was a stunning start to the day. Amos was as excited as us about seeing these. His depth of knowledge about all the animals was amazing. He spoke of the struggles they have to put up with through poaching.
The second day we decided to take a picnic and were brought out at 9am and taken through the reserve again and came back about 4pm. We saw hippos, elephants and all we seen the previous day. Again we had a great day. When we came back to Amboselli Sopa we were all very tired after a great few days.
Amos took us the following morning into a Masai Village which was very interesting and entertaining.
He then took us back to the airport and everyone in our group was delighted with all we had seen and done over the last few days.
Good operator
Jockytours helped me organize a lodge safari to Amboseli, Nakuru and Masai Mara. The price was very competetive. We liked our guide: he was very knowledgable and professional. Everything was organized according to the program we had approved beforehand. The only drawback is the quality of the minivan that could have been in a better state.

We were very pleased with Jocky Safari Tours.
A few years planned to go on a safari, but on safari tours price, here in Moscow really bite. And then by chance, at a forum Vinsky learned that can be quite inexpensive to travel without intermediaries. Immediately I contacted c Jocky Tours and began to correspond about the price and other details of the tour with them. And then came the day when we arrived in Nairobi. We were met at the airport by a driver of the company and drove to their offices for the payment of the tour, and then delivered to the hotel for free. The next morning, we drove for another driver and we went for a long-awaited safari. With us in the jeep was still four. The first item on our itinerary was the Masai Mara National park. On the first evening we saw so many animals: giraffe, zebra, impala, buffalo, warthogs and wildebeests, everything looked especially beautiful at sunset. On the second day even saw elephants, jackals, monkeys, hippos, crocodile, ostrich, cheetahs, lions. And the most important thing that impressed us - it is the migration of wildebeest and zebras across the Mara River. Please herd stood and did not dare go into the water, and when it went first, then the others all began to jump into the water behind him and go to the other side. We looked for an hour with bated breath for ungulates, it seemed there were thousands and thousands formed a never-ending chain of antelope with zebras, somewhere out there, in the depths of the savannah. We had a full day safari in the Masai Mara park, and we stopped for lunch in the middle of the savannah. In the evening on arrival in the camp, Maasai guarding our hotel accompanied us to his village. There we visited on a visit at this Maasai tribe, saw their way of life, by taking pictures with the locals. Masai start a fire using a wooden stick for us, I tried, but failed, and they produced it for two minutes. And finally, we jumped with them one above, and even danced. What I want to say about Jocky Tours. Safaris are organized at the highest level, all our wishes fulfilled, subject to any fines. We were fed three times a day. Kenyan cuisine at very very tasty, I visited many countries and some where, so delicious cooked. We were very pleased with Jocky Safari Tours.
