FANTASTIC
I would HIGHLY recommend booking with Jocky Tours! Coming from Australia, this was my first solo international trip. I was quite nervous but honestly I made the best decision by booking them! They were kind and very hospitable.
Before the trip, I sent countless of emails with various questions and I found that the Jockytours team responded very quickly and very professionally compared to other companies which is why I picked them.
When I landed in Kenya, I was picked up from my airbnb and taken to the Jocky tours office where I met the other travellers and our safari tour guide Kikitu. Everyone was so nice and kind which settled my nerves!
The trip was fantastic and value for money. What makes a good safari are the people you go on the safari with and having a good and knowledgeable driver. It felt like a family for the 3days. Kikitu our driver went above and beyond to ensure everyone was comfortable. We saw 4 of the big 5 which was amazing.
I requested to stay at Empayian Luxury Camp while joining a shared vehicle when I tell you it was 'princess treatment' all around, I mean it. I really enjoyed my trip and have so many memories. I felt safe as a young female and would highly recommend you book with Jocky tours. I would also recommend you ask for Kikitu as he is very knowledgeable and goes above and beyond!
This was an amazing trip and I definitely see myself coming back again soon!

4-days safari at Masai Mara and Lake Nakuru
We had the most fantastic time. We stayed at Enkorok that was a really great place close one of the gates to Masai Mara. The staf that worked there was doing a great job making us feel very welcome. Extremely helpful and serviceminded. The food was delicsious and we had a very nice room where you could hear the birds and wildlife outside. That was magical. We also visited the Maasai village, that was so interresting and we had a great time. Dennis our safari guide was very good at driving. And was always careful to the animals and you could see he enjoyed the time guiding. He learned us many things about the animals, and he was great at finding that extra special spot for amazing landscape scenery aswell as finding the animals. We saw the big five several times during our safari. At Lake Nakuru we saw the White rhinos and pink Flamingos and many other animals. We had a lovely time

Caring
Excellent tour. We managed to see all big 5 of saw many animals and also loved loved the accommodations. Andrew was a great driver he always got us to our destination efficiently and quickly. We never had to worry where to go or felt unsafe with him. He is a very humble guy he was very considerate with us and whenever we needed to stop to the bathroom he would also stop for us without hesitation. Overall enjoyed the tour felt it was a great intro to Africa as a whole. Thanks again Jocky Tours and Andrew!

Amazing Safari
Best Safari I've been on out of at least 20 others. Our guide Jeff did an amazing job of driving, both getting to the park and driving thru the park. He was able to find all Big 5 as well as a cheetah, hundreds of giraffes, zebras, hippos, wildebeest and all kinds of antelopes, all in the same day! The accommodations were fine with a good hot water shower. However, the power is only on for a few hours in the morning and evening.

The whole organisation of the safari was well managed, we loved our time with our tour guide Andrew!
Our trip was perfectly planned with the help of Jocky Tours and with the guidance of Andrew. We had the best time enjoying the nature and we were left satisfied with every aspect of our journey. Andrew, our kind tour guide, introduced the wild life to us in a perfect manner, he answered all our questions, he shared with us very interesting facts and made us feel comfortable during our safari. Kenya and Andrew will stay forever in our hearts. We will definitely come back❤️

Unforgettable experience
Many thanks to Jocky Tours and Safaris and our amazing guide Jimmy for a wonderful 4 days private safari in Masai Mara and Lake Nakuru. Jimmy was very respectful and professional and showed us a lot of wildlife. He took really good care of us and went beyond of our expectations. If your are planning to do a safari, I recommend Jocky Tour and ask for Jimmy to be your guide without any doubts. Thanks to Minneh too who helped me to organized this amazing adventure! Tip: If you can afford it go for a private safari, is the best!

I also enjoyed my visit to an authentic Maasai village on the 3rd day. I’d recommend Jocky Tours to anyone interested to have a great Safari experience at Maasai Mara.

A first rate safari experience
We enjoyed a wonderful three day safari with Jocky Tours and our fantastic driver/guide Jeff.
What a memorable experience!
Jeff was absolutely focussed on giving all in the group a great safari by using his wide experience and knowledge.
We felt Safe with his driving across absolutely all sorts of terrain in his pursuit of giving us the best chances of experiencing a wide variety of wild animals across the park - and we did. We got to see all we had hoped for and much much more besides
The camp was very comfortable with beds, and hot water readily available, staff were friendly and attentive, food choice was limited but wholesome, and our packed lunch for our full day drive extensive!
Jeff, was the perfect guide and driver.

Jocky fully delivered on an the expectations I had and more - great value for money!
I had an incredible time during my 5-day Safari.
I traveled solo in a group of 7. Everybody was lovely and together we had great 5 days and shared amazing moments. The safari experience is really magical, I cannot recommend it enough. We saw loads of animals, including the big 5, and loads of giraffes which are my favorite ones. Each of the parks (mara, nakuru, naivasha, hells gate) offers something uniquely different. At hell's gate we could even walk up to a group of giraffes which was magical.
Of course this was only possible because we had an amazing driver / safari expert / great guy with us: Francis! I'm convinced that without him we wouldn't have had so much fun or watched so many animals.
I did the budget accommodation, and it was perfectly fine, except for the hotel Buraha Zenoni in Nakuru which was way too hot and easy too loud to enable a good rest.
