The best tour guide ever who helped us create lifelong memories
The tour guides are very friendly and try their best to help you see the wild animals up close during the safari. The explanations are very easy to understand, so anyone can enjoy it. I chose to stay in a tent on the first day, but the unique Kenyan food and the sounds of the wild animals at night were a very valuable and good experience. At Lake Nakuru and Naivasha, you can enjoy wildlife and cycling in a different atmosphere than Masai Mara, so it's worth joining. The tour fee is not that expensive, so if you're looking to enjoy a 5-day safari, I would definitely recommend this tour.

Dennis was our hero! He was so attentive, helpful, and always had answers to our questions.
We had such an incredible time in Kenya and I cannot recommend the Jocky Tour and our amazing guide Dennis enough. We had unfortunate flight cancellations and had to change our dates in a last minute but the team was so flexible and understanding, we got to enjoy the 5 days safari tour as we initially planned. The tour itself is so well thought through - organised and oh so satisfying! We got to enjoy the safari on Jeep, on boat, on cycle - and if you don’t mind investing for special occasion I strongly recommend you the balloon safari as well. It was a dreamlike experience. Our guide Dennis was always attentive and in an occasion where things did not go according to plan (which very rarely happened) he would do his best to explain us what is going on and tried to resolve it, and regardless of the problem being out of his hand he sincerely apologised to us. Dennis very easily gained all of our trust and we felt that we were in safe hands. He was also great at positioning the car to take the pictures of the animals during the safari (you will be surprised by how competitive it can be with other jeeps!) and we got to take some amazing shots. We upgraded to midrange accommodations and were very happy with the result. The walking safari we got to enjoy at the accommodation Sopa Resort at Lake Naivasha is one of our highlights of this tour. We would like to show the biggest gratitude to the Jocky Tour and Dennis for making it happen. Legends!

Great value for money Masai Mara Tour
Had a great time on the 3-day Masai Mara Group tour with Jocky Tours. John, our guide, was very knowledgable and attentive and we saw plenty of animals on our full day game drive and evening game drive. Lenchada camp was very welcoming, the beds were comfy, and the tents came with en-suite shower rooms. The tour was also great value for money, with all meals included and an excellent safari vehicle. Communication could have been slightly better, but overall it was very welcome organised with the transfers arriving on time and a seamless experience once with John.

Wonderful experience, great service.
The entire tour was so well organized. Everything was taken care of from when we landed in Nairobi to when we left. Dennis was a great tour guide. He was very kind and knowledgeable and always made sure we had everything we needed. The sights were incredible.

Best guide Kikitu! Budget friendly and interesting safari in Masai Mara
We liked Jocky tour 3days safari to Masai Mara. Our safari guide&driver Kikitu is the best, the funniest, the friendliest, the talkative guy, and he is also the best driver and guide. He is optimistic and always in good mood trying to make every second that tourists and surrounding people would be happy. The experience was the best. Kikitu is the craiziest driver I know. When he hear for e.x. the rino or lion is in the location, he is trying to reach it and make us see animals. He is trying his best to make every second more and more comfortable. He even bought us a corn on the street! We feel that he like us, especialy kids. By the way the jeep was also comfortable and clean. Kikitu opened the roof max to us that we could see a lot of animals. Also he was explaining about every animal that we saw.
We will recommend him always as the best❤️ However Lentchada camp is very basic, and mornings cold 14Celcius in January, but we came for safari not for sleeping and eating.

Dennis was an excellent tour guide! He took us to see all the best animals
This was such an incredible experience! I went with my four friends from college and as students we were looking for a great and affordable safari. This was both and exceeded expectations. Dennis brought us to see all of the big 5 animals, along with amazing extra excursions in Naivasha and Nakuru! Would highly recommended

Great guide - good communication
We were two friends going on a private safari, and after getting different quotations, we chose Jocky Tours and Safaris, and we did not regret it. We had an absolutely amazing experience during our safari in Masai Mara, Nakuru and Naivasha. From the very start, the communication with Jocky Tours was easy, they replied swiftly, and were very flexible in accommodating our wishes and putting together an agenda to fit our expectations and to change one of the accommodation options as per our request. Our guide Charles was great - friendly, knowledgeable, good driving, on time every time, and while we never saw the elusive leopard, we got to see more rhinos than we had ever imagined. We were not very fond of the safari jeep circus around some animals, as is just the case in Masai Mara during peak season, so we instead asked Charles to take us a bit further away from the crowds, and we had a good time, still having some great animal experiences, but being much more on our own in the vast wilderness of the plains. All in all, I can only give my best recommendations for Jocky Tours.
