Wonderful few days on Safari
We were picked up in Nairobi by the very punctual Amos our guide and driver for the few days.
From there we were taken on a 4 hour drive through Nairobi to the beautiful Amboselli Sopa Lodge overlooking Kilimanjiro. All through this time Amos, when asked answered any questions we had. He was very obliging with everyone in our group. We were then brought to Amboselli National Park and we got extremely lucky seeing elephants, lions, any amount of zebras within the first hour. It was a stunning start to the day. Amos was as excited as us about seeing these. His depth of knowledge about all the animals was amazing. He spoke of the struggles they have to put up with through poaching.
The second day we decided to take a picnic and were brought out at 9am and taken through the reserve again and came back about 4pm. We saw hippos, elephants and all we seen the previous day. Again we had a great day. When we came back to Amboselli Sopa we were all very tired after a great few days.
Amos took us the following morning into a Masai Village which was very interesting and entertaining.
He then took us back to the airport and everyone in our group was delighted with all we had seen and done over the last few days.

Great safari!
Me and a friend did the safari of Jocky Tours in the beginning of October. We had a great time with a very nice driver and some cool people in our van. In the first 3 days in the Masai Mara we saw a lion, elephants, buffalo and cheetah and a lot of other cool people. In the last day at Lake Nakuru we saw the Rhino which completed the Big 5! Overall great experience, nice accommodations, good food, fun driver!

Wonderful experience of safari with Jocky Tours and Safaris
We had a wonderful tour of 7 days with JockyTours. We were very lucky to have seen the big-five animals in Kenya. We met 20 more lions at least. And we saw that a lion family were eating a giraffe. Lot of various animals and their mutual devouring in Masai Mala, fire-like flamingos on Lake Bogoria, leisurely elephants and giraffes with Mt. Kilimanjaro background, many unknown birds on Lake Naivasha and countless zebras and wildebeests all over the Kenya grasslands, deeply impressed us.
JockyTours is a professional company with very good credit. In order to meet our requirements, they arranged not only safari and scenery sightseeing, but also some project site viewing so that the tour had more pleasure and meaning. The guide driver is a kindly, patient and responsible man. Because of his experience, we got the more opportunities to see so many animals.
The regrets was that we had no chance to see wildbeests crossing the Mala River and catching/killing action between animals.
As for accommodation, Amboseli Kibo Tented Camp. and Naivasha Sopa Lodge were excellent, Mara Lenchada camp was average. The worst experience is: Golden Palace in Nakuru was terrible because of its noise overnight and impolite of its kitchener and servant.
Other bad experience after safari is: our cellphone was robbed in the street and we were extorted by two policemen at the airport in Nairobi. The public security and anti-corruption should be greatly improved in Kenya.

Excellent
It was a well organized trip covering several National parks (Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru and Naivasha). We were pleased with our safari experience with Jocky Tours. Our safari trip far exceeded our expectations. The accommodations were wonderful luxury lodges with great facilities. I also thank John our driver/guide who was very friendly and deeply knowledgeable about parks and the characteristics of all the animals and birds. The price of safari was reasonable. Thanks to Minneh.
Highly recommended safaries with this company!

Great Experience!
We had great experience with Jocky Tours. We spent 3 days in Masai Mara and it was great.
One of the most important things in gaming drive is skill of driver. Their driver is very skillful and he contacted with their team all the time. So we could watch a male lion eating fresh meat, lots of giraffes, elephant showering and so on.
They offer very reasonable price and I recommend this tour company.

6 days safari (Masai Mara, Nakuru, Naivashi, Amboseli)
Everything was as agreed and even more. I expected tent-houses in a camps, but is was a normal houses with walls, doors, windows. We saw all the animals, which are expected including rhino, leopards, flamingos, giraffes, crocodiles, hippos, a lot of lions, hyenas and other animals, made a photo with elephants and other animals on the background of Kilimanjaro. No hidden fees, extra charges, you are considered as a person and not as a wallet with money.
Great value for money. You Will See a lot of animals.
We took the Masai Mara and Lake Nakuru safari. In the first place we saw even a leopard, in Nakuru, not many flamingos but we saw rhinos. Anthony our driver did his best for us to see as many animals possible. Lions, chita,zebras etc.
We stayed at lodges and was more expensive but really worthy.

Special thanks to Eric who helped us to organize the trip according to our wishes.
Our guide Joshua was just great! Very polite, told us about the country, culture and animals.
