Well organized, reliable and offers great service.
Due to Corona-pandemic restrictions it took our time to make decisions but Jocky Tours was very flexible, assisting, helpful understanding. We had specific wishes with regards to the Parks we wanted to visit and accommodations, Jocky Tours provided us what we wanted. (it’s important for us to have a Jeep instead of Minivan and accommodations of our taste).
Jocky Tours was also very flexible regarding to the payment (we payed in Euro instead of US Dollars).
On the day our tour started the guide showed up on time and the vehicle (Jeep) was in perfect condition.
Our Package was 6 days Private Tour (2 days Masai Mara, 1 day Lake Nakuru and 2 days Amboseli National Park).
Throughout the tour our guide (Joshua) was very informative, helpful and always ask us if we have particular wishes (For example: Break times, Game drive arrangements etc) He made sure to arrange the game drives such that we have the best possible experience. Joshua made sure that we have a great view of animals while at the same time observing a distance in order to not disturb the animals. In Masai Mara due to Migration a lot of animals was in Serengeti (Tanzania) however we had a chance to see the Big Five in our second day at Masai Mara. In lake Nakuru National Park we had a great sighting of Black and White Rhinos and in Amboseli we were able to take the icon Elephant and Mount Kilimanjaro on the background picture. We made Safaris before with different operators in Tanzania, Kenya and Uganda but Jocky Tours gave us a tremendous experience, special thanks to the Jocky Team in particular our guide (Joshua).

A trip to remember
Our 3day trip to Maasai Mara was amazing. Everything went super from the pick up at city market to the game drives with Andrew.
He knows those roots well and was always ensuring that everyone was satisfied, despite being a group of different characters and ages…the interaction was a success! Most definitely a trip to remember!
Wonderful!
The tour was absolutely mesmerising; got the most out of it also thanks to our guide Robert Kiambati!!

Amazing experience
Before traveling to Kenya, the Jocky tours office kept me informed on everything related to the safari, since I had never been to Africa. They are very responsible and very punctual when it comes to picking us up at the hotel. We went to Masai Mara for 3 days, our guide was Kelvin, an excellent driver, he knows where the animals are and looks for the best position for us to take photos.

Absolutely positively know without a doubt you will have great and perfectly planned trip with Jocky
My family (2 adults, preteen boy and teen girl) did a 5-day budget tour through Jocky. We left thoroughly happy and satisfied. Everything was as stated, on time, well-coordinated and communicated, and in many cases exceeded our reasonable expectations. The initial pick-up at the airport was on-time and efficiently met. The initial transactions and orientation were smooth. Our accommodations for transportation and nightly stays were very comfortable and welcoming, and our safari provided every experience we could have hoped for. We saw all the animals we hoped to find, lacking for none; our visit with the Masai was inspiring and educational, trips through the national parks were unforgettable, the bike ride was exhilarating, and our boat ride was pure joy. The absolute glue for the trip was our guide Jimmy who is an outstanding person with the most significant servant's heart you could imagine. He truly cares and will go to any extent for you to have a lifetime experience, be safe, and have every need met.

Great service and Safary
Loved the tented camp, the Safary vehicle and the guide service by James, few times I wished he was more specific what was about to happen before a stop so we could have an idea but rather than that he was amazing looking for the animals and trying to make us feel happy and get the out goal in the Safary: To see the big 5

An amazing tour with the best people from start to finish.
Each and every person involved, from start to finish, is absolutely fantastic.
I opted for the 4-day Masai mara and Lake Nakuru tour. The tours were done in a 4x4, which was new, clean, and comfortable.
Our guide for Masai Mara was Richie. The man is a pure gent and absolute legend. You couldn't ask for a better, more knowledgeable and professional person.
It's a life changing experience. We got to see every animal in Mara except the illusive Rhino. Watching a Leopard hunt and kill a mongoose or even seeing a lioness hunt for her 3 cubs was unbelievable. Richie gave in-depth information about each animal, plant's and area we were in. Thanks Richie.
The camp site I stayed at was set in the bush. Upon our arrival near the camp, we saw elephants and giraffes casually eating. We were greeted with the warmest welcome and some delicious food. There are large tents with double beds, mosquito nets, a shower, and a toilet. The people running the site were so nice and attentive. Masai warriors guard the site to ensure no baboons or other animals come in.
Richie dropped me to my next tour guide, John. John took me to my hotel near Lake Nakuru, where I got to chill out and get some rest before an early start.
John collected me in the morning after breakfast and took me around the lake. Luckily for me, it was just John and I, so I had a private tour. He was very friendly and very knowledgeable. We got to see Rhino and a huge amount of flamingos. He talked me through every animal and bird, along with information about the history of the area. We became good friends, and on my journey back to Nairobi, we stopped for some traditional Kenyan goat. We shared the meal and swapped stories.
I hope to meet both Richie and John again some time.
I really enjoyed every part of the trips and all the people involved.
You guys are amazing. Thank you.

Jimmy was incredibly professional and intelligent, incredibly well read on the local wildlife.
My experience with Jocky Tours was fantastic, the operator heading the tour was incredibly charming, charismatic and intelligent. He had answers to every question I had about the local fauna and flora. There wasn’t a question he didn’t have the answer to. The over all experience was extremely pleasant and I met some fantastic people along the way, I’ll hold this one in the memory bank for years to come. If you’re thinking about going on a safari Jocky Tours and Safaris should be your go to, they’ve definitely become mines!!!
