Great guide, for a complete tour with all big five
We booked the 5 days, all-inclusive, private tour. Since the first moment, they showed us great flexibility. Our guide Peter adapted the schedule to our interests and necessities, without leaving anything behind. He, instead, suggested interesting activities and extras. During the 5 safari days, we saw all three parks, all big five and several other animals, also thanks to Peter's expertise. Food and accommodations were from sufficient to very good, depending on the place we were visiting, but we always found great kindness and friendliness. The only downside was the car, which needed some repairing during the trips (fortunately without interfering with our vacation).
In general, for the price we paid, the experience exceeded our expectations. Four stars to the company, five to our guide.

Very professional excellent organization
Everything went smoothly, during our lucky full day in Maasai Mara we could see the big five on the same day. Our driver, Solomon was really professional, he always answerd all of our questions and took us to the good locations. Highly recommend!

Excellent safari trip with steve
We booked budget safari with Jocky tours, it was easy and they were approachable, replying to emails promptly, providing options, answering questions and their advice about packing, etc was useful, it was a smooth process
Steve was quite knowledgeable, very helpful and keen to show us the best of Kenya culture and showed us the big five multiple times. I learnt a lot about animals and Kenya culture from him.
I would definitely recommend this trip as budget safari, accommodations as shown on website and all inclusive (no large buffets but local Kenyan food)

Excellent Safaris in the Kenya parks
At Jocky Tours and Safaris we booked a 7-day Safari around Kenyan parks - Masai Mara, Nakuru, Naivasha, Amboseli. We were very lucky with the driver Geeman, who worked throughout the trip not for a tick, but to get us the best views and as many animals as possible. We saw lions, cheetahs, hyenas, elephants, rhinos, giraffes, hippos up close.
The trip is well organized, water throughout the trip, food, accommodation, nothing to worry about. We were extremely satisfied.

Well organized and nice people
I joined a 3 day tour of the Masai Mara. Everything went smooth, from the hotel pick up to the safari.
Our driver was Geeman, who gave us plenty of info about the animals and their habitat.
The camp is ok, you Get What you pay for but overall was a nice experience. Light is Limited from 5.30 to 7 and from 18.30 to 22. You can charge your devices in the common dining area.
I would definitely recommend this esperience.

Loved the experience
Me and my friend went on a week long safari with Jocky tours and safaris in August 2024. Visited Masai Mara, Nakuru, Naivasha, Hell’s Gate and Amboseli. The entire trip was well organized, right from the pickup till drop off. Our safari guide Peter was amazing, he’s very knowledgeable about the terrain, wildlife and very helpful. Thanks again for the wonderful Kenyan experience. Hakuna Matata!

Unforgettable Safari with Jhon!!
We did our 7gg-Safari through Masai Mara/Lake Nakuru/Amboseli/Tsavo East. We were able to watch so many animals including the big five more than once! But start from the begging:
- we fit our personalized private jeep tour itinerary with Minneh by mail and she was very kind. Her price is very competitive (in a budget accommodation).
- the driver was waiting for at the airport at Nairobi and he dropped off in Watamu
- we had some problems the first day due to the amount when because given that the currency she tried to get high the agreed price but after saveral negotiations we agreed the price and payment method (she tried to not accept small banknotes) .
- budget accommodation is a good wild status for living this amazing experience but to be honest, in my opinion, Mara Lenchada Camp in Maasai Mara is to the limit of what may be acceptable (not recommended!) nice experience instead in Nyati Safari Camp at Amboseli (Jocky Tours changed our accommodation at last minute for this cheaper place with not refunding the difference price). Amazing experience at Buraha Zenoni in lake Nakuru (great hotel), and at Voi Safari Lodge in Tsavo East.
- least but not least, the driver: our Jhon, a great man with whom we have lived an unforgettable Safari! He's so much kind and funny; a man with a great experience and knowledge about Safari but also as a safe driver crossing the country (we ride more than 2k kms more or less). He always taked care of us and thanks to him we spotted all the animals, including the most rare ones (we saw leopards twice and rhynos!).
Thank Jhon and Hakuna Mat*t* 😂 (the * isn't an error, let you explain that to your driver).
Jambooooo!!

An Unforgettable African Safari Experience
I recently had the pleasure of embarking on an African safari organized by Jocky Tours, and it was nothing short of spectacular. From start to finish, the experience was seamless and filled with unforgettable moments.
Exceptional Service and Planning From the moment we booked our trip, the team at Jocky Tours was incredibly attentive and responsive. They took the time to understand our preferences and crafted an itinerary that perfectly matched our interests. Every detail was meticulously planned, ensuring a stress-free and enjoyable adventure.
Our guide (Peter) was not only experts in wildlife and the local ecosystem but also passionate storytellers. Their deep knowledge and enthusiasm brought the safari to life, making each game drive an educational and thrilling experience. They went above and beyond to ensure we had the best possible sightings, from the Big Five to the lesser-known but equally fascinating creatures.

Very resourceful and enthusiastic!
My wife and I had an amazing weekend trip to the Maasai Mara with Khalifa. He was kind, warm, and very informed when completing the game drives. We saw elephants, lions, giraffes, zebras, cheetahs, and even a leopard with her babies. We were grateful for Khalifa's hard work and resourcefulness with getting us the best photo opportunities!
Cooperative and hospitable
He made extra efforts to make the game drive a success. We came back satisfied
