Amazing experience with great guide!
5/5

We had a great experience on the 3 day 2 night Masai mara safari. It was Even better than I imagined it would be. from the moment we entered the park we saw giraffes and zebras and buffalo and gazelles and our guide Fidel was great. By the end of the 3 days he was a friend. We even met up again in Nairobi. Great tour with great guides definitely worth the money.

5/5

I just got back from a trip to Kenya, and this journey was simply amazing!

The natural scenery and wild animals in Kenya really blew me away. In Maasai Mara National Reserve, I witnessed the spectacular Great Migration. Herds of wildebeests and zebras galloped past, and that scene is unforgettable for a lifetime. Amboseli National Park is also extremely beautiful. I could clearly see the magnificent figure of Mount Kilimanjaro and encountered many lovely elephants.

However, the most satisfying part of this trip has to be our tour guide, PaPa. He has a wealth of professional knowledge. Along the way, he explained in detail the habits of various animals, local culture, and history to us, allowing us to gain a lot. Moreover, PaPa is extremely considerate. He arranged the itinerary perfectly and always took care of our needs. Whenever we had any questions, he answered them patiently. Once, someone in the group didn't feel well, and he went out of his way to take care of them. He was really warm - hearted.

Choosing PaPa as the tour guide made the experience of this trip to Kenya off - the - charts! I highly recommend everyone to travel to Kenya and definitely find PaPa as your tour guide!

This tour operator has amazing rates and gives you the best experience they possibly can!
5/5

I booked the 3 day budget with these guys and let me tell you, they have been absolutely amazing! They were on time to pick me up, the transaction with them was flawless and they're upfront about everything that is included/excluded. No hidden fees. The accommodation was absolutely amazing surpassing my expectations and our guide Steve was great! Steve did everything possible to get us to see all the animals in Masai Mara, and while there were other safari trucks trying to get a look and get photos for their clients, Steve managed to squeeze in our truck and always gave us the best views! We also got to see a Leopard which is one the big 5 but also very difficult to spot so we were really excited! My group also managed to lose an item when it fell out of the window and Steve went above and beyond to locate it (we found it). I couldn't recommend this company enough!

A unforgettable wildlife experience with our great tour guide, David!!
5/5

We did a Masai Mara-Nakuru 4 days tour.
Our tour guide, David, was such a nice, patient, and friendly person and we loved him. He was so nice to our 6 years old son as well.
His game drive skill was perfect and we could see all of the wildlife that we had wanted to see in Kenya!

The most reliable Safari company in Kenya
5/5

The reviews speak for themself, it’s the number 1 tour operating company in Kenya for a reason.

The guides/drivers are the one who make this experience unforgettable. I had 3 drivers for this 7 day trip and all 3 were amazing and had 10/15 years of experience in this industry. David who we began with for the first day, Andrew who I spent most of days with and Richard who I spent the final 2 days with.

I genuinely don’t have any negative things to say about them, I’d highly recommend the company and guides whether you’re travelling solo, as a couple or even a big family. They were extremely accommodating to all the requests of the passengers in the group.

The guides are extremely educated with knowledge about the animals, places, plants and everything about Kenya, Andrew found me probably the best binoculars in Africa somehow and I used them for the entire trip, he’s probably also the funniest driver they have at Jocky. Richard’s knowledge about birds and the different types of animals was amazing, and David’s politeness and care for the passengers was unbeatable.

I would highly recommend this company and will definitely be using them again for Kenyan safaris.

Another memorable experience with Jocky Tours.
5/5

Jocky tours and once again we had a fantastic time. We felt looked after from the moment we were picked up from the airport in Nairobi to when we were dropped off back at our hotel in Nairobi after our safari. The short stop over en route between Nairobi and Amboseli were also welcome.

Our friendly guide/driver Simat was brilliant. He was knowledgeable and had an endearing blend of enthusiasm and professionalism throughout. Wearing his Masai dress a unique bonus. Simat was super keen that we saw all that we had hoped to, and more besides.

Our three days in Amboseli (four full drives) took in many different areas of the park and we saw numerous Elephants, Water Buffalo and Hippopotamuses, and a couple of cheaters. Also giraffes, zebras and all manner of birds including flamingos, pelicans, and both Tawny and Fish Eagles, not forgetting the Maribou Storks (four of which were nesting just outside our camp.

Our accommodation at Manjaro Camp was superb, located less than 10 mins from the park gate, with sightings of elephants and giraffe en route. It was very comfortable, clean, and with good food and excellent staff led by Peter the camp manager. We felt well looked after. Even the local celebrity Tusker elephant ‘Craig’ was at the Manjaro Camp gate to say his goodbyes!

Simat gave us a great safari :).
