everything was perfect
On the safari I was, 4 nights and 5 days .for very little money, I got great pleasure. we got a very good international crew, at the head of our driver and the beautiful man Richard, thank him for the care and attention. We were in Masai Maru in Neuwash and Nakuru
Once again I want to say thank you to the team of joki tours for giving me the trip. Special thanks to the guide and driver Richard, for the good work and knowledge of the Russian language. an unforgettable experience for a lifetime. Thank you

Amazing all inclusive safari to Masai Mara, Nakuru, Naivasha, and Hell’s Gate.
Great safari at an even better price! We had a wonderful, knowledgeable driver for 4 nights and 5 days. He was very open to suggestions from all of us in the group, if we wanted to stop for a pic of one of the thousands of (less exciting) animals he did. He also stopped at stores and ATMs along the way when asked. Everything (except specialty drinks) was included in the price, we never had to pay out of pocket for park entrances, food, lodges, etc. Great experience all around, highly recommend!

Well arranged, and an excellen value for your money
I enjoyed my safari with Jockey Tours and Safaris from the moment I booked it at the office untill the day it was over and they dropped me off at my hotel one week later. The company has an amazing staff and very friendly owner, who will try to accomodat you at all times.
To strat off with the tour was very well arranged: pickup and drop off at your hotel, transport, all meals and water included, good accomodation and a good driver. I booked my tour 3 days in advance, which was no problem at all. When I asked them 2 days later if my friend could join, they made the arrangements right away and even when we were on our last day of the safari and decided to add one more day, to see a different park, they made it possible within minutes. Their service is truely remarkable. We ended up booking a 5 day budget safari to Masaai Mara, Lake Nakuru, Lake Naivasha and Hell's Gate N.P.
The accomodation provided was also lovely. The tented camp at the Masaai Mara had huge tents, with very comfortable double beds and hot water showers. The lodge in Nakuru povided us with a big pool, which was very welcome after all the dust, and excellent food. The Lake Nakuru hotel was smaller, but had a lovely garden and very friendly staff.
The food was always good and there was always plenty. For breakfast we either had an english or continental breakfast. Lunch was either served in the lodge or as a picknick inside the park during full day game drives. They were always different, well spiced and there was always a very good vegetarian option. Dinner was always served at the lodge and also existed of a good and healty veriety of meals.
There were always drinks available such as cold beers and soda's which were not at all expensive.
Our driver knew the parks and the animals very well. He really tried to show us all the wonders off african nature and whenever big game was spotted somewhere he would make shure we were the first once to arrive. So many thanks to our driver who made the trip complete.
All together I canhighly recommend Jockey Tours and Safaris. When booking with them you will most definately get your moneys worth.
FYI
All hotels had hot water showers.

7-days individual safari
Perfect organization! The tour was prepared according to our wishes and Eric's advices for the season: Masai Mara, Nakuru, Bogoria, Amboseli.
Awesome driver/guide. Very good choice for lodges. The driver took care about us since he picked up us at the airport and till our next destination in Mombasa.
Clear price. After payment during safari we didn't need any extra dollar to pay for something. It was also pleasant surprise to get breakfast before the tour and lunch on the way to Mombasa.
On safari we saw all animals we wanted. Big five and flamingoes were the target) Saw them all very close except leopards.

Amazing value, and awesome experience.
I was looking for an affordable 2 day safari tour in Maasai Mara. The tour exceeded my expectations and the driver tried to ensure we saw as many as the Big 5 as possible even though it was the low season. I did my research prior, comparing safari prices and packages, and Jockey tours offers the exact same tour that other companies offer for AT LEAST $100 less! It’s also the same accommodation! My only
regret is not doing the 3 day 2 night option.

Wonderful adventure
We've had a great experience from the reservation with Minneh until the end everybody was professional and careful.
We enjoyed both safaris and found what we were looking for thanks to our guide even though the weather gave us some surprises on the road our super guide/driver James handled the situation like a boss and he always adapted the schedule to us as we were with two young kids. We are also thankful to the cooks who succeed to always prepare us good dishes despit our strict vegan diet, espacialy Mike in Amboseli who was always very careful. Concerning the camps, we prefered the Lenchada in Masai Mara as it was more comfortable(we slept so good!!) and a very nice and attentioned team.
For all thoses reasons we would like to say ASANTE SANA!! We would definitly reserve with you again if we come back to Kenya.

Excellent driver and guide and accommodation very good value for
Have just had an excellent 10 days safariing organised through Jocky. Evans (driver/guide) was fantastic - he drives safely and always managed to get us into wonderful positions for good photos. He managed to find all the animals and he has a great deal of knowledge about the animals (and birds). I will be booking again.

Amazing experience.
We had a wonderful trip. I've lived in Tanzania for 20 years and have done a lot of travelling there, but this was my first time on safari in Kenya. The wildlife was amazing, we saw the big five and tons and tons of lions. The weather wasn't the greatest, but it was still a great trip. Our driver, Richard, was great, and we helped many other people who got stuck in the mud. Food was much better than expected. The tented accommodation was basic, but the other hotels were much better than expected. My only complaint was that we did not have hot water anywhere. They said they had it, but it never worked. We visited Masai Mara, Lake Naivasha, Lake Nakuru and Hell's Gate. All of them were great in their own way. We paid an extra $5 per person to rent bikes in Hell's Gate, and it was a special experience cycling through a park. The walk through the gorge was also worth it. These were the only things we paid extra for, everything else was included, and the price was extremely fair. The trip was definitely beyond my expectations.
