An amazing price for value safari
The seven day safari was very well organized with full use of time, visiting the most suitable locations to see the wild animals and staying in decent and clean places with good food whether they were in hotels or lodges. In any case, it was more than worth the amount we paid.
Of course, the greatest asset of the safari was the guide, Joshua, who had an amazing ability to be in the right place at the right time. So we saw everything down to the elusive leopards and cheetahs. A massive well done to Joshua.

An Adventurous and Breathtaking Experience
We went on the tour for 5 days and we didn’t feel bored for one bit! We had delicious food, excellent acommodation and very hospitable people. Even though, we booked for a mid-budget tour, the places we’ve been to was so nice and cosy. We even dived into a swimming pool and had some massage in one our hotels. Also, thanks to our guide Johnny, we were able to see all the big five animals and had everything we needed on our way to the national park. We even saw a lion hunting a buffalo! It was a lovely experience. I recommended this company to anyone, even for those that are looking for budget tours that included all the fun stuff!!

We had 5-day Masai Mara, Nakuru and Naivasha tour which was perfect and left us with quite joy.
We had the 5-day Masai Mara, Nakuru and Naivasha tour and it was really exceeded our expectations thanks to Jocky Tours and our guide Johnny. Jocky Tours handled every problem with such an ease which shows that they really have the expertise that is needed for this job. Our guide Johnny was quite helpful and really an expert in recognizing animal behaviors to get better views of them. He handled every situation very professionally. I strongly suggest Jocky Tours with Johnny as the tour guide.

Great Safari Tour
The Safari Tour was just awesome. Our guide Johnny made sure we saw a lot of animals, also got pretty close to them and could watch them from the perfect perspective. The camp we stayed in in Masai Mara was also very comfortable and pleasant. We slept in big tents and at night there was a cozy bonfire. Everyone around there was so welcoming and friendly. After two days in Masai Mara we proceeded to lake Nakuru and there we stayed in a very nice hotel with a pool and spa (can recommend the massages!). At Lake Nakuru we also saw many animals. The boat tour in lake Naivasha was one of our highlights, it was so beautiful and calming. The only negative thing about the hotels in Nakuru and Naivasha was that there was no warm water in the shower.
I can totally recommend this tour!!!

Awesome budget option
We loved our overall experience with Jocky - our guide Dennis was so knowledgable. Our 7 day safari was great value for the cost and we felt like we saw so much of the country.

Organized, Professional, Fun
Booking a safari without from afar is really difficult and we took our time. Jocky Tours were recommended to us from multiple sources and we got in contact with them and conveyed our plans (7 day safari that includes Masai Mara, Amboseli, Lakes Nakuru and Naivasha as well as Hell's Gate) and our flight details. We really wanted to make sure that our experience was smooth and the accommodations were clean and the food was reliable, so we wanted to go for the mid-range option for those. Also, since it was me and my friend (both girls) we wanted to be with a group instead of private safari to feel also safe and comfortable. Jocky Tours absolutely delivered on all of these - in terms of organization, from the pick-up from the Nairobi Airport to the drop-off, we completely felt safe and taken care of. Anything we wanted changed, we need not ask a second time, they took care of it immediately.
All of the mid-range hotels (except for one in Naivasha called Panaroma Lodge) were clean and comfortable. The food in general for all safari bookings is not very impressive, but fulfilling nonetheless and the organization of for example lunches during game drives were all taken care of by the tour. You do not need to go out of your way about anything, they really take care of it.
One highlight of the trip for me was our guide Francis. He is immensely friendly and very knowledgable. For some guides, you hear that they memorized some texts and are just reciting those, and they do not know which terrain to drive on or how to behave when entering the parks or engaging with other people but Francis was exceptional. First of all, he answered at least a million questions, not only about the animals but also about conservation efforts, our questions about Kenya and football in all earnest. Second of all, you can see that he has been doing this for 14 years as everyone knows him and respect him. Further, the roads and the situations with the animals, especially us as two girls, etc., it is important that you feel comfortable, safe and secure with your guide, which we did. So huge credit goes to Francis for the success of our trip.
Overall, I appreciate the amazing hospitality shown and the professionalism and am grateful. I would recommend this tour company wholeheartedly to all friends and family.

Excellent safari with great guide
We had an amazing safari experience with Jocky Tours, who were very responsive from the start and arranged everything for us smoothly without any problem. They were 24 hours reachable and answered all our questions and requests promptly.
Our guide Francis was great, very friendly and knowledgeable, also a competent guide and a game-driver. He made us feel secure on the game drives, and he knew where to find the best wildlife sightings. He also shared with us his insights and stories about the culture and history of the places we visited and he was always ready to help our needs.
We enjoyed every moment of the safari and we highly recommend Jocky Tours and Francis as a guide for anyone who wants to have a memorable and hassle-free safari adventure.
