Highly professional organized and accommodating 6days safari
Jocky tours took us on a 6 days customized private safari and it was super well organized — starting from the communication over email for the itinerary, welcoming us at the airport, the super experienced guide - Sir Charles who is very knowledgeable about the wild life in general and where they can be spotted in Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru and Amboseli.
Thank you Sir Charles for the unforgettable memories me, my wife and our kids will have!

Interesting, professional, knowledgable , friendly and sympathetic
Sir Charles made the safari very enjoyable. He knows all the facts about the animals and told us very interesting facts about elephants lions and others. There isnt a animal he cant name and tell you a fact about and i dont remember asking him a question he couldn't answer. He is always smiling and doing everything for us to see the animals up close. Sir Charles always stops when you ask him to and gives us tips on how to take a more beautiful picture. He speaks very good englisch and you can understand everything he explains to you. The safari was amazing we saw all the animal we wanted to up close. The camps we stayed at were also very nice and the food was good too.

Incredible experience with a top class guide
An incredible experience with Africa Jocky Tours and Safaris, in Masai Mara, Kenya, especially with our driver/guide for 4 days. Richard was top class, he was very knowledgeable and we got to see the Big 5, the Ugly 5, and lots of other animals. He was professional, punctual, fun and has a great character and was well able for all the Irish banter on the trip. He truly made this holiday a trip of a lifetime which I will never forget. There were 6 in our jeep, he got us very close to all the animals. We stayed at the budget friendly Sankale Camp Masai Mara, it was very clean, safe, well maintained and the food delicious, an extra advantage is that you have your own toilet and shower in your tent. I would highly recommend this camp and would have no hesitations to book through Jocky Tours and Safaris again. Also, The Masai Mara Tribal Village is a must. Thank you again Richard for everything you did for us on safari, if I ever decide to go back I will be looking for you as our guide again and I will recommend you to my friends. 10/10 magical experience.

Well organized and professional
The communication with the tour operator was without problems and they picked us up from our hotel. The guide, Kevin, was really nice and we felt very well taken care of. The accommodation was beyond expectations. Good value for the money, would recommend going!

The best company for a safari in Kenya
We loved our 4-day safari in Masai Mara and Lake Nakuru. Our fantastic guide Francis helped us to see the big 5 animals and much much more. It was really the best safari ever as it was very well organized and we couldn't hope to see more animals. Big thanks to the best guide Francis!

Exceeded my expectations
I was a bit anxious to book a safari tour via email, especially with a down payment, but the great reviews convinced me. Jocky Tours was fast to reply and answered all my questions.
On the day of the tour I was greeted (punctually) by a friendly driver who brought me to their office for payment after which we proceeded to the safari vehicle. Our guide was Kikitu and we set off in group to Masaai Mara.
I had booked the 5 day budget safari and it far exceeded my expectations. This was mostly due to our excellent guide Kikitu who made sure we were entertained and had an amazing trip! When our first day did not go fully as planned due to unforeseen circumstances (road blocked) he made sure we were fed (as we were not able to reach our lunch spot) and when we did reach our destination he made sure we still had a wonderful evening. The rest of the week he gave us a premium experience with humor, interesting knowledge, making sure we saw the Big Five and a big smile.
Personally I did have high expectations for the accommodations as this was a budget tour but we had three meals a day, very decent accommodations and we definitely got value for our money. The meals were buffet with similar options yet enough variation to keep you satisfied.
The car was cleaned daily with a box stocked with water. I always felt safe during our drives even though the roads were bumpy (especially towards Masaai Mara), our guide was definitely an experienced driver.
The only “negative” I have to note is that we had one day solely dedicated to a long drive, but then again it was also a welcome rest as we woke up early most days and we had a very active and long day the day before.

Simply the best 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
We had a 4 day safari trip with Jocky Tours & Safaris. Our driver/guide was Richard (Richie). Richie was very punctual, professional and courteous at all times. He went above and beyond to ensure that our trip was one to remember. Thanks to Richie's efforts, we got to see every animal on the Big 5 list and then some. He got us into prime position to get superb videos and photos. Richie's knowledge of the flora, fauna and wildlife was incredible. We never felt rushed or short changed on any aspect of the trip. He answered all our questions and he also somehow made the whole experience fun and unforgettable. All credit to him for being an utter gentleman with 6 Irish women in his jeep. He quickly adapted to our Irish banter and was well able to keep up with our sense of humour. I would have no hesitation in booking another safari through Jocky Tours and would insist on having Richie as our driver/guide. Richie deserves a 5 star rating. Such was our experience that we were all very sad to return back from the Masai Mara to our hotel in Nairobi. Thank you so much Richie for giving us an unforgettable experience and one we won't forget in a hurry. Don't hesitate to book your safari with Jocky T&S and insist on Richie being your driver/guide.
