Visit to the beauty of Hell’s Gate.
If you only have one day in Nairobi, a tour of Hell’s Gate is a must. It is a long drive but so worth it. Our driver and guide Kikitu Douglas was an excellent driver and source of local information. Douglas helped us with our Swahili and sites along the way. He was very professional and made us laugh. We arrived at the park and were matched up with our local guide Willy. Willy escorted us on our bicycle ride among the animals. We saw Antelope, Giraffe, Warthogs and much more. The scenery was breathtaking and the excitement of being on a bicycle passing a Giraffe is amazing. If you’re not a strong rider, don’t fret Douglas drove behind to pick up the stragglers. After our ride we were treated to the antics of the local Baboons who investigated all of the motorcycles parked near us. One of them got a little cheeky and tried to look in our van. Douglas sent him scattering but we have that great memory. We had a wonderful time and you will too!!

James is the best guide!
Many thanks to our guide James! All days James was very empathetic and attentive to us. And most importantly, James knows the savannah and national parks as well as possible! Namely, the success of your safari depends on this. In 4 days, we completely closed the big African five, and also saw hundreds of other animals and birds. James was very cheerful and sociable. Solid five! Only thanks to him, we will remember this for many years.

Good communication, excellent service and flexible
We had a fabulous 4 day trip in Masai Mara & Nakuru parcs in July 2021. Unbeknown to us, we choose a great time to go there (winter) and thus saw all the main animals that one could expect. Thank you to jockey tours for organising this trip: it went perfect, smooth and without a hitch. We can’t fault Jockey they did well here couldn’t ask for more.
What makes or break such a trip is the guide. Raheem who was our guide for the trip and he was just amazing: Raheem is a safe driver and a knowledgeable guide that knows the tricky roads of Masai Mara inside out. His willingness and ability to talk to other drivers enabled us to see many animals we would otherwise not have seen. Chatting with him was very pleasant and we learned a lot. What’s especially amazing is that after 8 years doing this job, his enthusiasm remains intact!
Finally I would like to add that there is more than to a safari than animals. the nature and the landscapes in and out the parc, the drive to/from the parc, the people you meet, the food you eat, the experience of sleeping in a tent etc. all this makes a safari a very unique experience well worth the money.
Ps: take a 4x4 land cruiser not a minivan minivans may be a littler faster on the road and cheaper but for smoothness of the ride in the parc, reaching some spots if rain falls and the general atmosphere a land cruiser is much better.

A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!
It was truly increíble Safari! We booked 2-nights with Jocky Tours in Masai Mara Reserve and it's more than recomendable! First of all: the contact with their office was the fastest imaginable - we literally was receiving answers in minutes, and we asked a lot! Their fulfilled every point of scheduled programme. And we had THE BEST GUIDE POSSIBLE - JAMES! (Thank you once again! ❤️) He showed us more than we counted on: lions (more than once!), cheetahs, giraffes, packs of elephants, more than a hundred (100!) hippos, zebras, impalas, gazeles, baboons, savanna foxes, hienas, pumbas, birds, plants and - most breathtaking - THE GREAT MIGRATION OF WILDERBEAST! He knew a lot about the Park and the a Animals, he was very patient, he explained everything, he was never late, he drove safely, he really knew where to go! We were like a 1.5 meter from cheetahs! If you go on Safari with Jocky don't hestitate to ask for him - definitely recomendable one :)

Amazing Adventure
Asante sana!
My safari with Jocky Tours was an unforgettable experience.
The communication with Minneh from the office was very friendly, she answered all my questions, I've always got a fast reply and the booking was very easy.
Our guide Richie did a great job!
He is a professional, experienced guide and an excellent driver.
Richie always put us in 'first row', so we were as near as possible to see the animals.
Thank you for these unforgettable emotions!

Best safari experience with an amazing tour company
I strongly recommend this company. It organizes amazing safaris. I had a 4 days-3 nights safari with a great guide Dennis. He answered all of my (many, many) questions to my satisfaction, always seemed very interested in having a great trip.

Spot on in everything mostly to find animals and left no doubts for us to be confused
We really found everything except for the usual rhino because it is almost impossible so it was the best package we had for 3 days because it was totally worth it and the service for all including food was superb also and James was one of the best drivers we had any it was quite safe around him even though the trip was all about adventure to death thank you for taking us

Excellent
The Jocky Tours and Safaris is undoubtedly one of the best Safaris Agency I have ever had. I booked my tour with the help of Dany (+254 727 724921) and the pickup person James (+254 722 225107) had the best safari experience of my life. The three days we spend at Mara were full of adventure and beautiful memories. We enjoyed seeing the Africa Big Five, need to specially thank Mr.James our driver who helped us a lot to spot the lions, elephants, cheetahs, and Zebras that roamed in the Mara. The beautiful and rugged terrain coupled by the lions that walked majestically as they waited for their next prey was refreshing. We would send the nights at Rhino Camp , accommodation that summed up the magical safari at Mara. I thank Jocky tours for making this safari memorable and without any furore. I totally recommend their professional services. Happy Safari everyone. Remember to enjoy yourselves!
