Guide Charles Sharuq - super expert!
We had our tour in the middle of August, and from the moment we landed until the end of the tour, everything went smoothly and was very well managed.
We had a lot of fun and enjoyed the best sightseeing experience with our guide, Charles, who is extremely professional and passionate about what he does. He took great care of us throughout the tour, knew exactly where to spot wild animals, and expertly read their patterns and behaviors. This was both highly informative and thrilling for us. Our night bonfire talks and jokes were also fantastic! 💯
Feeling completely safe and filled with unique emotions, we were sad to see our 7-day tour come to an end but happy that we had the opportunity to experience it with such a guide!

It was a well organized tour, our guide Steve was very friendly and enthusiastic.
Communication with the tour operator was very smooth, the guide very friendly and an excellent driver which was helpful during the rainy season and muddy roads. We felt safe driving with him and he was also very helpful to others who got stuck on the road. Accomodotion and food was as expected, whereby the last camp at Amboselli national park was astonishingly beatiful located within nature, we could even see impalas and other animals walking back from the dining area to our room.
We enjoyed our tour with Steve very much and would definitely do it again.

Impeccable organization, excellent camps, and great responsiveness. An unforgettable Kenya safari!
I had an incredible experience on my Kenya safari, thanks to the fantastic planning and organization oj Jokey Tours. The camps selected were perfect—comfortable, well-located, and offering a truly immersive experience. Every staff member at the camps was incredibly friendly and welcoming, making the stay even more special. The food at all the camps was excellent, with delicious meals served daily, although I must mention that the Mara camp could use a little more variety. However, the stars there were absolutely mesmerizing—you could see them perfectly!
Jokey Tours offered a great price compared to other companies I had contacted, which made the whole experience even more worthwhile. In Amboseli, I highly recommend doing the morning walk, as it’s a chance to see Greg, the elephant with the biggest tusks in the park—a truly amazing sight! Also, don’t miss the Maasai village visit. It’s a fantastic opportunity to learn about their way of life and traditions, and the people are so welcoming and eager to share their culture.
All in all, this was a safari I’ll never forget. If you're planning a trip to Kenya, this is the way to go!

Experienced, organized and efficient.
This was once in a lifetime experience, we (my GF and I) got the Private tour on budget Accomodation and we couldn’t be happier! Accomodation, food, service was efficient and greay. For the experience - They were abundant wildlife, beautiful landscapes and rich culture all around. I can’t be happier with my experience and big shout out to our guide Raymond. He was knowledgeable, caring, kind and accommodating to our time on the trip. We always felt safe, guided and cared for the entire trip. I recommend Jocky Tours and specifically Raymond to guide you if you’re on the fence. This is a very special life experience!

Effective and wholesome experience
Raymond is an experienced guide and able to spot the animals even from far away. They have a strong network of guides over walkie talkie in the Mara to ensure you get good sightings - we managed to see all of the Big 5 including the elusive leopard.
We got the budget - private option with a jeep to ensure we could maximise the experience, but the budget accommodation itself is pleasant already and it’s more important for us to have full use of the jeep and free range of the vehicle to get 360 views without restriction and maximise space on the long drives between Nairobi and all the national parks
Be aware that any extras on the trip, i.e. extra tours, souvenirs from the locals etc that is beyond what Jocky provides can be overpriced, I tried one or two and didn’t feel good about spending the money vs what we were getting. The main value and experience is already in what Jocky includes and you would not miss much without the extras

Reasonable company
Thank you my guide David for the caring on our 6days private tour during Christmas. His driving skill was good for the long day travel from one national park to another. He took us to see most of the animals as he could during the safari. On time and follow the schedule as we agreed. He is nice and peaceful man. Sometime, luck and experienced guide play an important role in the game drive.

Excellent and understanding
We recently completed a week-long safari with Jocky Safari, and we must express our utmost satisfaction with the experience, particularly thanks to our exceptional driver, John Mungai.
From the outset, John displayed not only a welcoming demeanor but also a remarkable level of engagement that significantly enriched our journey.
His extensive knowledge of wildlife and the surrounding landscapes was impressive; he offered insightful narratives and expertly answered our myriad of questions, deepening our appreciation for the environment we were exploring.
What truly distinguished John was his flexibility and attentiveness to our family's needs and preferences.
He adeptly adjusted our itinerary, ensuring that we could maximize our experiences, whether it was on a quest to spot elusive wildlife or lingering at stunning viewpoints. This adaptability demonstrated not just his professional skill, but also a deep understanding of customer service.
John's kindness and genuine passion for his work shone through in every interaction, making what could have been a simple tour transform into an engaging and meaningful adventure.
His commitment to preserving the beauty of the natural world was clearly evident and added a profound layer to our experience.
We wholeheartedly recommend Jocky Safari Tour and specifically advocate for John as your driver. His exceptional engagement skills, combined with his deep knowledge and considerate approach, will undoubtedly enhance your safari adventure.
Thank you, John, for an unforgettable week that will remain etched in our memories for years to come!

Perfect safari tour
It was a really great tour. I participated for 5 days, and my guide Solomon was very kind and reliable. I chose it because of the high reviews, and it was definitely worth it. If anyone is considering participating, I highly recommend it.

Awesome experience
Dickson was a lovely guide - he got us amazing views of animals on our game drives and was always ready to answer questions. Jocky Tours was affordable and great quality, and communicated well while planning my trip. Hot air balloon ride was a life highlight. One note: bring enough cash to pay for the whole tour though, otherwise they’ll charge a 5% fee if you want to use a card.
