Solomon is a professional, calm, friendly, punctual and very knowledgeable person about animals.
The booking process with Jocky was very smooth after booking everything was as described. Solomon, our guide, was a very professional person always on time. He tried his best to show us wildlife as much as possible for that reason we were able to spot 4 out of 5 of the big five. He has really good knowledge about animals. Due to his calmness and friendliness it was fun to spend 5 days with him while doing game drives.

Kevin is a rockstar!
Jocky Tours was great but Kevin, our Safari driver, is the reason I would recommend this tour company to anyone.
My friend and I planned this safari the week before because we were already in Kenya and had the flexibility to chose which dates we wanted to go. We chose a 3 day safari through Masai Mara with pickup from/drop off at Nairobi Airport. We finalized our booking 2 days before, which Jocky Tours was able to accommodate on short notice and we really appreciated. The price seemed pretty standard compared to all the other 3 day, drive-in, Masai Mara options and it seemed reasonable considering it included the transport, food, water, and accommodation. We had discussed several different accommodation options (which varied in price) and picked the one that worked best for us - Mara Chui was a great spot with delicious food, 24/7 hot water & electricity, and friendly staff.
Now, Kevin made our safari experience *incredible*. He was kind, funny, and knowledgable so he taught us a lot on this adventure - everything you want in a safari guide. But even better, he managed to find and get us close to all sorts of animals - giraffes, a parade of elephants, lions, hyenas, leopards, cheetahs, gazelles, warthogs, wildebeest, zebras...it was incredible! I know you can't predict or control what animals you'll be able to see on safari, but Kevin managed to drive around the Mara and get us views of *everything* - including a gorgeous sunset our first evening and a stunning sunrise the morning of our second day. I always felt safe and I felt like I was truly getting a once in a lifetime experience. I will always be grateful to Kevin for what he did for our tour group and the experience he gave us.

Excellent tour with excellent guide
We have recently returned from a Kenyan safari with Jocky Tours.
We visited Maasai Mara, Lake Nakuru and Amboseli over 6 days.
Our driver/guide was Joshua and he was amazing. He even managed to tweak our itinerary so we could fit in a boat trip and walking safari at Lake Naivasha.
Joshua was very helpful and knowledgeable and was a very safe driver. Nothing seemed to be too much trouble for him and he was constantly scouring the landscape for wildlife.
We managed to see all the big 5 up close and just about every other animal you can think of.
Accommodation and food was good and overall we were very happy with the whole experience.
We would definitely recommend Jocky Tours and would like to say a big thank you to Joshua.

Amazing
I had the best time exploring Masai Mara. My guide Peter was very informative, trying to show me every possible thing we could see in 2 days. I was a solo traveler and I could feel safe during the whole trip, which is a big plus for me. So thanks to Jocky Tours, and especially Peter for this great experience.

Solomon was friendly, knowledgable and an excelent driver.
Jockey tours provided an excelent value for money experience in the Masai Mara. Our guide Solomon made sure we saw as many animals and landscapes as possible in our short time with him.

Best 4 day trip to the Maasai Mara
We had the best 3 night 4 day safari with Ali at the Maasai Mara. Ali was high energy and enthusiastic from the start and was very attentive throughout our trip. He worked very hard to ensure we saw as many animals as possible and was very knowledgeable about the animals and the Masai Mara. The roads were very wet and slippy due to the rain but we felt like we were in safe hands with his driving! If you are doing a trip with jocky tours I would definitely recommend requesting Ali.

Very nice safari with many special moments
We had a super well organized trip with Jockey Tours. Our guide Joseph took us safely to all places to give us the best possible view of the animals. Joseph gave us a lot of information about the animals, thank you for that. So we could see the big 5. It was an impressive experience that I will always remember.
Thanks Norbert

The first safari
My first safari (3 different national parks from September 13th to September 18th, 2023) became a wonderful and unforgettable experience thanks to the friendly Joseph.
Thanks to his experience and commitment, we were always in the right place at the right time
Place to often discover and observe the animals up close.
In addition, he almost always had an answer to our many questions.
I always felt good and safe.
