Amazing safari experience
This was our first time doing a safari and it was a truly remarkable experience. Communication with Jocky tours was really smooth, as they were very responsive and provided information for all the questions we had ahead of the trip. The schedule and the plan was followed as per what had been agreed and even when we had a mishap getting stuck in the mud during the safari, they offered to extend the duration of the safari for that day and add a complimentary visit to the Masai village. It is always difficult to book such a tour online, but there were no unpleasant surprises and overall I would say they are a reliable company.
Our guide was James and I would highly recommend him. He was very easy going, friendly, knowledgeable and tried to accommodate all our requests and to make sure that we get to see as much as possible and as many animals as possible. At the end of the tour I believe that everyone was really pleased with all the animals we got to see. And although he had to drive us through difficult road and weather conditions (both within the park and on the way there), he made us feel safe the whole time and that was very much appreciated.

Fast Response for Any Question.
We are communicating by mail for the tour detail. And the reaponse very fast and detailed. Every question is answered cleary. During the tour also the guide/driver was responsife. Let us know many information about the place and sometime try to have question to us for make sure we still remember or not. Other regarding the driver/guide was very responsive, try his best for find out the Big5 Animal and many landscape that very good. Regarding the price is quite good. Just little accomodation. But is not for tour but for the hotel owner in Naruku and Naivasha regarding the room comfort. Overall i was very enjoy about the tour and want to join the tour for the comming July.

Jimmy from Jocky was a friendly and considerate tour guide who we trusted and had a great time with.
We went on the 5 day private budget tour and Jimmy guided us from Nairobi to the Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru, Lake Naivasha and to Hell's Gate National Park. We had a great time and we're lucky enough (though his great driving and spotting) to see the big 5 in 1 morning. The Masai Mara was the highlight of our trip and it was amazing to see these beautiful wild animals up close! We also really enjoyed cycling in Hell's Gate National Park and were able to even use the hot springs (1800ksh each) which was a fantastic way to end our tour! We had a great time and we're well looked after by Jimmy who shared lots of interesting facts and made sure we were taken care of. Thanks Jocky and thanks Jimmy for an unforgettable experience! 5/5

Amazing value amazing guide John
We booked a 7 day Safari with Jocky Tours prior to arriving in Kenya. The service they provided was fantastic and everything was organised before we even arrived,they even booked us train tickets for us in advance.
Our guide for the trip John was fantastic nothing was too much trouble for him and he was truly an expert at spotting the animals for us. Everything he organised perfectly for us and he went above and beyond.
Would highly recommend Jocky Tours safari and even more highly recommend John as your guide.
Thanks so much for the incredible trip

Great communication, reliable company and personalized service!
I took a five day safari with Jocky Tours and it was amazing. I received much more than what I expected! I highly recommend that you do a 5 day safari instead of a 3 or 4 day because you will have a more compelling idea of different sites of the area. I did a 5 day safari visiting Masai Mara, Lake Naivasha, Lake Nakuru and Hell's Gate National Park, and in every site I had a great experience with either the guidance of our general tour guide or the guides of the sites. I must say that communication with Helen was fast and efficient from the beginning and she was always answering to all my questions. However, the cherry of the cake will be the service provided by Khalifa, our tour guide. Khalifa always took care of us with a very nice attitude and explaining all interesting details of the sites and the animals. He knows where the animals are and other guides were actually calling him to find out where the animals where. We were able to see all big 5 in Masai Mara, even two leopards over a tree, one with his prey. The dynamic created within the group was perfect, most of us were solo travelers and Khalifa made sure that each one felt at ease and had a good time! Thank you so much for everything, it was a memorable experience!!

Trip of a lifetime with a 6 days safari though Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru and Amboseli. We saw amazing wildlife, even the big 5 and the best landscapes during our trip. We had a blast!
Thanks to our guide, Joshua, his experience as driver and guide made the trip perfect, comfortable and safe. He knows so much about animals and the parks. Highly recommend!

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!
