Best customer experience
Here's a revised version of your review to enhance the wording and maintain the praise for Jockey Tours:
I was initially hesitant to book my first-ever safari with Jockey Tours and Safaris, especially because their prices seemed significantly lower than the typical costs I had heard about from friends. Despite their glowing reviews, I tempered my expectations, given the modest price of $620 for a five-day safari. Having traveled to over 20 countries across four continents, I can confidently say this was the best value for money I've ever experienced. From the moment they picked us up at the hotel to our return drop-off, the professionalism and dedication to enhancing the client experience were exceptional. I was in the company of amazing tourists from around the globe, which led to forging new friendships and creating lifelong memories.
A special shoutout to Albert, our extraordinary guide, who went above and beyond to ensure our experience was unforgettable. He navigated through floods, mud, and other challenging terrains to ensure we always reached our destinations.
Thank you / Asante to Albert and Jockey Tours, my first safari was nothing short of spectacular!
Hope to see you soon for another trip with my friends !

Fabulous experience - a great Masai Mara safari and lodge, and brilliant value for money
Jimmy was a fantastic tour guide - fun, informative and a smooth driver! The highlight of the safari was seeing a cheetah and lionesses and their cubs.
We were blown away by our accommodation at the Jambo Safari Lodge. All inclusive and very high standard hospitality and food at the lodge. The only improvement would be that the packed lunches were a little uninspiring.
Well organised and highly recommeded!

It was a wildly beautiful experience.
I really enjoyed my trip. Being my first time to go to the Mara i must say it didn't dissapoint one bit. The travel logistics from time keeping to the accomodation, to the game drive it was all quite commendable. If you plan to travel stress free reach out to Jocky Safaris they're your go to safari booking experts.

Everything was amazing!
We have just finished a 5 day private tour visiting Masai Mara, Nakuru and Naivasha. Everything about the trip was fantastic but especially our guide - Jeff. As a guide, he was professional, personable, informative and good fun! He is an incredibly skilled driver and we always felt we were in safe hands! He went out of his way to ensure we got the best view of the animals we spotted and we got amazing photos of elephants, many lions, giraffes, buffalo, gazelle, warthogs, rhinos and much much more! We would not hesitate in recommending Jeff to anyone - he truly made memories for us that we will treasure!

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!
