Great value for money
5/5

We had a wonderful time on our 5 day safari. Our driver and guide Jeff was amazing - really knowledgeable about the wildlife, always accommodating and keeping us up to date on the schedule, as well having a great sense of humour. We saw an amazing amount of wildlife, including the big 5. Lake Nakuru was probably our highlight and cycling through Hells Gate - it was amazing being so close to zebras, antelope and giraffes. Accommodation was great value for money - both the camping and hotels. We also never went hungry with big breakfasts, lunches and dinners. Only thing that could have been improved was communication prior to the tour, maybe some sort of official documentation especially for e-visas would be useful.

Excellent experience by Jocky Tours
5/5

We had a fantastic experience with Jocky Tours all the way from asking the quotation/planning Safari, payment terms and execution which is Safari itself.
Jack was with us whole time, he is very good, experienced and professional guide. We felt super relaxed and safe being with him throughout our Safari for 3 days. He is knowledgeable and have so much information. He made sure to show us all animals (including big fives) by driving all around in Masai Mara park. The vehicle was kept clean everyday.
There are lot of minor details to ensure good experience we had. Jocky Tours have organised everything for us in a best way.

Excellent Safari Experience

Everything went smooth and we had tons of fun! The guide, Jimmy, was very accommodating to our needs and made sure we had a great experience! We saw a lot of animals and definitely recommend this Safari. It was also a very good value.

Reliable Safari service
5/5

I took a 3 day safari tour and stayed in the Jambo Safari lodge. The pre-tour communication could use some work as I had to message them the day before to confirm my pick up was still happening as no one had reached out to me. They were quick in their reply to confirm my pick up was happening. I was picked up at my hotel at 7:45AM by Daniel and brought to the tour office to make my remaining payment for the tour. I recommend bringing cash or arranging to pay for the tour online somehow before coming as I had a 5% credit card fee which made me pay $40 extra. The transit from the office to the Maasai Mara was a bit rocky. There was an accident blocking the road for the route they were meant to take so all the tour companies decided to take another road which was actually quite dangerous causing 2 jeeps to flip over (not ours… our driver Charles K was pretty good). Everyone was okay. Our game drives through Maasai Mara were excellent. We saw 4 out of the big 5. The protests/demonstrations in Nairobi cut our time in Maasai Mara short as our driver had to leave early to ensure we made it back to Nairobi safely. My stay at Jambo Mara Safari lodge was also quite pleasant with hot water to shower and no insects inside my cabin and a diverse selection of food to choose from the buffet. Overall, i would recommend booking with Jocky Tours.

Awesome safari with the best guide (Kikitu)
5/5

Jocky’s 7 day safari was an outstanding experience overall. Everything was very well organized and communicated and I could not have wished for a better guide than Kikitu. He’s such a funny, cheerful and knowledgeable character who always made sure everybody’s wishes were taken care of. Would recommend to anyone looking for a great safari experience with lots of animals in Kenya. 🇰🇪

more than expected experience
5/5

Johnny Jackson is a very experienced driver and tour guide who is gifted to smell where animals are. We met almost all the big 7 and the amazing beautiful sunset. Masai is a place that make memories. The bed is comfortable, work staff are friendly. You can sit by the bonfire and see stars and moon clearly at night. The truck has quality wifi during the safari, no need to worry about the internet connection. The time arrangement is reasonable. Additionally ,John can speak English very well and a little Chinese. I would recommend him as your tour guide especially if you are from China. All in all , it’s an unforgettable experience.

Dickson is an all star tour operator!
5/5

My 4-day Maasai Mara/Nakuru safari with Dickson was phenomenal! I was traveling by myself and was a little bit nervous initially, but Dickson made me feel right at home! It was fun being “copilot” for our group’s journey! We got to see the big 5 along with the difficult to spot cheetah, leopard, and black rhino! Dickson always masterfully maneuvered the crowds of vehicles to ensure that we all had a good view of the animals, and he was very knowledgeable in answering all of my questions! When I accidentally left my sunglasses at the accommodations in the Mara, Dickson arranged for them to be brought back to the office in Nairobi without me even having to ask. The Jocky staff are also all helpful and accommodating! My safari experience wouldn’t have been the same without my amazing guide Dickson. If you have the chance to go on safari with him I 100% recommend it! You’ll be in for a fun and amazing experience!
