Rodger is an incredible guide who will get you right next to every animal before everyone else!
This tour is the best value for money I’ve ever come across. All meals are included and tasty, the 4x4 is very comfortable no matter what seat you’re in (my friend and I tried them all), and timing is reliable. The park is packed with animals so you’ll definitely see so many amazing creatures but our guide made the whole experience for us. Rodger was clearly very experienced from the moment we began. In the park he got us to so many locations to see lions, elephants, leopards, the list goes on and on. We were always one of the first people at each location and his driving skills are unmatched. I have already booked a second tour with him to Amboseli!!

Always happy!
From the Pick-up at the Airport in Nairobi until to the end of our Safari, all was very well organized and worked perfect.
Our guide Kikidu is a very good guide and safe driver!
He is a very nice guy and good connected in the scene and has the best informations about whats going on. He brought us to very good spots. We had a great time and have seen lots of animals.

Best Tour, Request Rodger!
Incredible tour!! Our guide Rodger was the best, it felt like we got to the animals before everyone else and were always the closest. Value for money the 3 day tour is a steal. I highly recommend booking this tour and requesting Rodger as a guide!

James Gichina was an awesome tour guide <3 !
Unforgettable Masai Mara Safari with James Gichina
James Gichina was an outstanding tour guide, and our experience in Masai Mara was truly unforgettable. Thanks to his expertise and exceptional guiding skills, we had the rare opportunity to see the Big 5—lions, rhinos, cheetahs, leopards, and elephants—up close, along with so many other incredible animals.
James’s knowledge of the wildlife and the Masai Mara ecosystem was impressive, and his clear and engaging explanations enriched every moment. He tailored the experience perfectly to our wishes, ensuring we felt heard and completely taken care of. The off-road adventure was absolutely breathtaking, offering moments we will cherish forever.
What stood out the most was how seamless and effortless the entire experience felt. James handled every detail, allowing us to relax, enjoy the stunning scenery, and simply marvel at the wonders of the Mara.
If you’re planning a safari and want a guide who is professional, knowledgeable, and passionate, James Gichina is the one. He made our dream safari come true, and we couldn’t recommend him more highly!
Thank you, James, for an awe-inspiring journey we’ll never forget! ❤️🦁

Amazing Experience with Kikitu
We had the best 3 day tour with kikitu in the Masai Mara. We were picked up from the airport in Nairobi on day one, ready for an evening game drive when we arrived 6 hours later. On day 2, we had a full game drive all day and transferred back to our hotel in Nairobi on day 3 following a visit to the Masai village which was incredibly interesting. Kikitu was extremely knowledgeable about the Masai Mara and was able to use his vast knowledge of the park to tell us all about the animals. He made sure we were safe at all times and even when getting stuck in a huge pothole still having fun! We went in low season in November which was great as we weren’t following any others cars and therefore really felt like such an authentic adventure. A couple of highlights were giraffes walking incredibly close to the car, a cheetah taking a nap after a kill and spotting a leopard in a tree! Thank you kikitu for making our trip to the Masai Mara so memorable and we would highly recommend booking with him for an exciting and unforgettable experience!

Knowledgeable and passionate about safaris
The whole process was great from start to finish. Our guide Francis was extremely knowledgeable about the wildlife, local people and surrounding area and more than happy to answer any questions we had during our trip. Thanks to Francis' extensive experience we were lucky enough to see all of the big 5 during our second game drive.
The hotels were clean and had a luxury feel to them. The food was tasty with good variety. The staff are incredibly friendly and attentive.

Efficient and excellent!
The booking process was smooth and Jocky were quick to respond to any queries I had before departing. We were collected from our hotel by our driver and taken to the offices to pay, we were then picked up by our driver Francis. He is a truly wonderful guide - always on time, incredibly knowledgeable, positive and courteous. On our first two days in Masai Mara we were lucky to see the big 5, only made possible by Francis' expertise. He also organised the hot air balloon ride for us, a must do! Lake Nakuru and Amboseli also fantastic. All of the accomodations have been beautiful, really clean and food great. The tour is excellent value for money. A big thank you to Jockey for organising such a seamless and well-planner trip, and an even bigger thank you to Francis for making it so memorable!

Excellent, I deffiniatly recommend them!
We were on a 7 days safari tour. Our driver (Johny Jackson) was really kind and helpful! He’s a very good driver, he told us lot of information about the animals, and culture of Kenya. We saw all of the Big5 animals, in addition to the leopard 4 times, and we saw cheetas, elephants really really close with him!
The best park was Masai Mara and Nakuru. Amboseli was also good, but there was less animals, and they were really far away, because there is only one fix road! So you need a telescope for the good experience, that we didn’t have but fortunately Jhony has, so it wasn’t a big problem for us!
About the accommodation:
All accommodation was fine, but the absolutly best was Manjaro camp! The camp is awsome, also the employees! The food was delicous here.
It may seem expensive at first but it is absolutely worth the price.
We had an unforgettable experience!

Excellent operator, if someone wants to go on safari, definitely choose them!!!
I read a lot of comments before I chose the company I wanted to go on safari with. Based on the comments I chose Jocky tours and I don't regret it at all! In fact the tour was even better than I had imagined.
Johny Jackson was our driver and we cannot thank him enough. An excellent driver who loves animals and knows a lot about them and Kenya as well. During the safari it was an extra help that he could spot an animal from up to 1km away, like the cheetah, so we were the first to arrive and we could admire it from 2m away. This is an everlasting experience for me. Any request we had he always found a solution, we were really lucky to have him as our guide all along. The safari was well organised, the jeep comfortable, the accommodations excellent, especially the Manjaro camp. We also saw the Big 5 and the Ugly 5.
Thank you Jocky Tours and special thanks to you Johny Jackson!
