Excellent excellent guide - ok accomodations
Our guide Johnnie Jackson was super duper excellent!! We saw the big 5 right away and also saw 7 cheetah one day as well as quite a few lions (1 male and 1 female were right next to our vehicle) and even a leopard! He knew right where to find the animals and made each day fun and interesting. He was concerned about everyone in our group and was patient, kind and flexible. The only downside of the safari were a couple of the accommodations. They were definitely budget and we knew that going in, but we're still surprised by the lack of cleanliness, broken tiles, and no hot water.

A very professional with excellent client service operator
We chose Jocky Tours because of the high ratings on safari booking and references on social media. Our experience exceeded our expectations ! We selected the private 5 days safari Masai Mara-Nakuru-Naivasha. It was the perfect choice as we managed to visit different places , see different landscapes and also observe the big 5 and lots of other animals as well! We also took an optional air balloon ride ( even if it’s pricy it really worths the experience, you see a lot of animals and the landscape and view are stunning) and the boat ride which was also a good option as we saw a lot of hippos. Of course a very successful and memorable safari wouldn’t be possible without an experienced driver. Our driver Jimmy was amazing!! Very professional, very good driver, with good knowledge about nature and an attentive ear. Whatever we wanted to see in a safari, he would find it for us ( lions hunting , migration , leopard, rhinos).Thank you Jimmy and Jocky Tours for this amazing experience!

Wonderful Safari
We had a wonderful 6-days safari with our guide Kikitu who helped in making it unforgettable with his knowledge of the parks, ability in spotting animals and driving. If planning to go, ask to have him as a guide and you will not be disappointed.
We saw all the big 5 and the migrating wildebeests thanks to his expertise.
Safari was fully customizable and the jocky tour team was available to help for any request. Highly recommended.

Beautiful adventure and surreal experience
From the moment we got picked up, we were taken care of by our guide Steve, and the tour was overall an amazing experience. Everything was communicated well throughout our 6 day tour, and we experienced the best of all the parks we visited. Steve was very experienced and knowledgable about the areas we visited and made sure we witnessed amazing views and animals (lucky enough to see 3 cheetahs, and a leopard and all the other big 5 must see’s). Steve really made the trip very enjoyable and would highly recommend him to anyone who wants to get the best of visiting Kenya!! This was the trip of a lifetime.

Easy, smooth and well organised. Pleasure to deal with.
The safari was wonderfully organised from start to finish. There were no issues at all, the 4x4 was comfortable and the places to stay were ideal. Our tour guide, Steve was highly knowledgeable, had brilliant energy and charisma and ensured we had the best trip possible. I couldn’t recommend this operator and guide enough.
Excellent, knowledgeable tour guide!
Stanley was a great and safe driver! He’s helpful, funny and good natured. Additionally, he was very knowledgeable about Kenya, the wildlife and many plants. He kept the group in a good mood and was very fun to be around. The tour was well-planned and we really enjoyed our time with Stanley.

Fantastic Safari with average acomodation and food
The safari and our driver (Albert) were fantastic! The acomodation and food (mainly rice, potatoes, spinach and chicken 2x a day) are low standard. As all tour operators stop at the same places I assume it is the same on all safaris. As such I can recommend Jocky Tours!

Excellent trip
We were two on a shared safari trip with Jocky Tours and it was totally worth it! The tour and all the details were designed for us. While organising the safari, we could ask all the questions and we knew that it will be resolved within a short amount of time. They were responding really quickly. The safari itself was amazing! Our driver was eager to stop whenever we wanted to see animals, also he was really quickly when he knew that there is some rare animals close to us… we were literally almost first to see them. Moreover, we had all food provided during the trip. The budget camp where we stayed was also good with brilliant staff ready to help with anything. Totally recomended!

All as promised
Great safari experience! Everything was perfect, from pick up at our hotel to drop off at our new hotel. The Lechada camp was super for us, good accommodation, good food and good hospitality. The safari experience was awesome! The full day game drive absolutely fulfilled our wildest dreams. Plenty of animals, near encounters with lions, cheetahs, elephants, giraffes,hippos, crocodiles and to top it of: a leopard climbing a tree to feed on its prey just before out eyes! A big thanks to our drivers/guides Josh and Robin. They made the safari experience so perfect. As for Josh, me being in his car, he went out of the to inform us, keep us safe and happy, entertain us etc. Josh truely has all the abilities needed for a first class safari guide/driver. Always safety first, always prepared to answer any question, always smiling and joking to make guests feel comfortable and happy. For both Josh and the entire safari, a sure 10 out of 10!
