The tour organisation was great, they were reliable and very accommodating
We opted for the 5-day adventure, and found it to be a great value for money. Our accommodation exceeded our expectations and the food was always good. Our safari guide Steve was incredible! He was very knowledgeable and made sure we saw as many animals as possible. His friendly demeanour and humor made the journey even more enjoyable. Highly recommend!

Amazing
This tour was unbelievable. I did this tour together with my friend. It was so well arranged with Jocky tours (special thanks to Jimmy the best guide ever), for a very good price too. We’ve paid like $500, for a four day tour, in two different areas Maasai Mara & Lake Nakuru. We had 2 luggage each. We just packed a smaller bag to take with us on Safari, we could leave our luggage at the office. They keeped it safe for us. Good service.
The first day we arrived at the Camp. This was our stay for the first 2 nights. It was a pretty good stay, above expectations. It was a luxe lodge tent with a own bathroom, warm water and flushable toilet even. Breakfast, lunch and dinner was served, delicious meals. There was security at the camp, what made me feel safe, since we were sleeping in a tent. Since traveling is included the first day we did a gamedrive for around 3/4 hours with sunset. We already saw so many different animals in those couple of hours. Many elephants, zebra’s, different breeds of gazelles and antelopes, lions, giraffes, buffaloes, wildebeest et cetera.
Day two we had a full gamedrive with sunrise. This drive was from 06.15 till 17.00, a full day. We saw lions eating a buffalo, hyenas, hippo’s, crocodiles, cheetahs, warthogs, meerkats and many more. This day we had a outside lunch, in the middle of Maasai Mara surrounded by animals. This experience was simply amazing. We also had a stop at the border of Tanzania which was extraordinary.
Day three we had a visit at the Maasai village, which was very educational and interesting. This visit is optional but I do recommend. After that we drove to Lake Nakuru and had a break for lunch. That ride was about 5/6 hours. Our last stay was a hotel. Here they had multiple facilities such as a swimming pool, massage and a gym.
Day four, the last day, we started early in Lake Nakuru. Around 07.00 am. This is a totally different area compared to Maasai Mara. I really liked it. We saw flamingo’s, pelicans, white rhinos and a family of lions up close. This experience was very rare and a dream coming true. Furthermore we had a stop at a waterfall in the park, just beautiful.
I highly recommend this tour. Special thanks to Jimmy our guide. Jimmy is a very good driver, the roads aren’t easy but he made us feel safe and comfortable the entire trip. He made sure we had a clear view of the animals and that everyone could make some good content. He has all the patience in the world. He knows much about the animals and areas. Jimmy likes a conversation and is fun too! I think if we didn’t had Jimmy as our guide, we wouldn’t had the same experience. Jimmy’s presence made the trip. Jimmy for president!

So our tour operator is Hellen, she is very cooperative and take care of everything.
Jockey Tours and Safaris are reliable and their service was remarkable. In this trip I met Johnny (brother from another mother), Johnny answered all my questions patiently and clearly because this is new place for me so I have a lot of questions.
During the safari in Masai Mara Park, he told about all the animals and also gave information about the Masai tribe, his country Kenya etc. I respect his punctuality and his dedication to our safety as well as his work. He is a wonderful person, he tells jokes, makes us laugh. I also learned some words like Kribu, Asante, Jumbo etc. It was a once in a lifetime experience for me because of Johnny Bhai and the Jockey Tour and Safari.
Thanks for such wonderful experience.

Our tour operator was Hellen. helpful , informative , cheerful and gave us good deal.
We were assigned Johnny as our tour guide for almost five days .
He is very informative when you go with him on safaris . His jolly and kind nature is a bonus for our trip.
We had charging slots , wifi available in the car itself.
Our overall trip was planned in a unique way where we went for multiple safaris, hiking,boating , cycling etc.
Overall we are very happy to choose Jocky safari for our trip to kenya ❤️

Once in a lifetime experience
Safari was the best experience of our trip so far! Our driver, Albert was amazing and he made sure we will find all the animals!
We saw all the big 5 ( leopard was hidden in a tree but still).
We did a 4 day tour to Masai Mara and Nakuru and both accommodations were good. We booked budget so don't expect much, but at the end of the day you only need a shower and a bed.
I would totally recommend the tour to everyone!

Awesome experience, great guide
We booked a 6-day safari, going to Masai Mara first. It was overall a great experience, we had an awesome full day in the Masai Mara park on day 2, thanks to our guide Jimmy who went above and beyond to make sure we’d see a lot of animals! Jimmy is a remarkable driver and possess an extended knowledge of the local fauna, including birds as he later demonstrated in Amboseli National Park. I can only recommend asking for him when you book through Jocky Tours!

Outstanding Experience With A Personal Touch!
My family and I were mesmerised by the extraordinary safari experience with Julius. The views were breathtaking, and our tour guide went the extra mile to ensure the children had a remarkable experience viewing all the diverse animals on the safari. Julius was an amiable guide who built a great personal rapport with our family of eight, ensuring everyone's safety. The children loved Julius' energy and had taken away great memories from this journey.☺️
and a big Thank you to J.

Perfect
I have done the safari with my partner and we had Francis as the driver. No complaints. He was very effective, always punctual, helping us with everything and explaining everything we asked. I would repeat with him without hesitation

Great experience! Price/value very good!
My partner and I chose for the 7-day safari. We visited the Masai Mara where we slept in a lodge in the parc, the camp was basic but clean. The people were very friendly, the food was basic but very nice! The surveillance in the lodge by the Masai men to protect us against wild animals, made the experience even beter! Further we visited Nakuru and Navaisha where we slept in two hotels, basic but clean and cosy. Before we got to the last park we biked around in Hells Gate, it was amazing to be so close to zebras and girafes! At last we stayed for two days in the AA lodge in Amboseli, where we had a beautiful view on the Kilimanjaro. The lodges were super nice, clean and beautiful!
I would highly recommend the 7-day safari, we saw the big 5, breathtaking landscapes and so much more… Our guide Johny was very friendly, funny and easygoing. He had a great knowledge of the nature and the parks!
Jocky tour is price/value the best tour operator to go on safari with!
