The experience of a lifetime - absolutely amazing and a real privilege!
5/5

I travelled as a solo woman and joined a group of others. Everyone was really friendly and welcoming and I felt completely safe at all times with Papa (our driver) looking out for us. We saw things I could never have imagined and couldn't believe I was so lucky!! Papa was brilliant at getting us close to the action and in prime spot for photos. I couldn't imagine a trip anywhere else being better - we visited Masai Mara and Lake Nakuru, both of which were incredible! It was organised really well with pick ups and drop offs, all of the accommodation and food was great, and I thought it was worth every penny by the end of the first day, let alone the following three! I can't recommend Jocky Tours and Papa highly enough - look no further for the ideal safari adventure!

We did a 6 day safari with Peter. Saw everything we wanted to, he was really knowledgeable about the animals and we were super satisfied with the experience! Peter kept us updated on the plans every day which I really appreciated. Trip of a lifetime.

Our experience with Peter as our guide has been great! He's very knowledgeable and knows the best spots for viewing animals and finding the big 5.

5/5

Fidel has been an outstanding driver for our safari. Not only is he kind, polite, and fun, but he's also highly organized and incredibly knowledgeable about the wildlife.

- We saw all the animals in Masai Mara except for rhinos, which are quite rare. Fidel brought us so close to lions and cheetahs, and even a leopard and her cub, which we saw from less than one meter away. His deep understanding of animal behavior allowed us to witness incredible moments, like a leopard and her cub crossing right in front of us—a truly life-changing experience.

- He also prepared a wonderful picnic for us, making sure we had everything we needed and more at all time. Truly a 5-star experience.

This was my second time in a Masai Mara safari and having such a passionate and thoughtful driver made all the difference.

Thanks, Fidel for this great experience, we’re extremely grateful - we’ll recommend you to all our friends!

Good budget safari, 6 days in Maasai Mara, Nakuru and Amboseli
4/5

I came to see the animals. There were lots. The accommodations were rustic, semi-permanent tents and one well worn hotel. Meals were okay, nothing fancy. The guide, Moses, was knowledgeable, good at answering questions. He spent much time on his mobile phone while driving when he should have been concentrating on the road or talking to guests. Tour organization was spotty, beginning at departure when guests embarked then disembarked from the vehicle. Guests were divided between 2 camps, requiring a 15 to 20 minute commute morning and evening for pickups. If you are considering the 6 day trip be ready for hours of driving between parks. All things considered, an enjoyable trip, good value for money.

Great safari!
5/5

Booked our 6 day safari with Jocky Tours. We went to Masai Mara, Nakuru/Naivasha and Amboseli. We saw so many animals (big 5 aswell). The camps were very nice, the food was good. Also our guide/driver Jeff made this trip! He knows a lot about the animals, find the animals, drives safely. Thank you Jeff! I can recommend Jocky Tours.

5/5

Jocky tours were brilliant from start to finish, the level of service was to a very high standard.
They provided a great deal for 3 day safari in the Masai Mara in lovely accommodation.
Our driver and guide Albert was brilliant, his knowledge of the area and roads was really comforting.
Would highly recommend this company.

Lifetime Experience
5/5

We had the privilege of having Moses as our tour guide during our safari, and he made the experience truly unforgettable. From the start, it was clear that Moses was incredibly knowledgeable, not just about the wildlife, but also about the landscape and the history of the area. His passion for the animals was evident, and he went above and beyond to ensure we had the best possible experience.

Moses knew exactly where to go and had an amazing ability to get us close to the animals without disturbing them, offering us incredible views and photo opportunities. He patiently answered all of our questions, sharing fascinating details about each species and their behaviors. His expertise added so much depth to the tour, and his enthusiasm was contagious.

We felt completely safe and well taken care of throughout the entire trip. Moses truly made the safari exceptional, and we’re grateful to have had such a knowledgeable and skilled guide. If you’re lucky enough to have Moses lead your safari, you’re in for an incredible adventure!

Steven is the most daring enthusiast guide you can have who will risk giving you the best views!
5/5

Jocky yours and Safari bookings made safari planning so easy. They stayed in contact with me via email and replied at a timely manner. Please pack light for safari and leave other luggage elsewhere or in office because storage space on vehicles are limited. But that is a simple issue if notified prior. The experience is a 10/10 even after great migration. This is the only time you will be in front of this type of wildlife so enjoy! Also Jambo Mara was an excellent lodge stay with glass windows.
