Excellent/timely service, very accomdative and understandning fellows.
I got into contact with MJ Safaris/Trekking Heroes after running the Kilimanjaro Marathon in 2019 as I stayed at YMCA Moshi were their offices are located. Abu(Jacksons brother) welcomed me so warmly and answered all my queries and gave me Jacksons contacts. Fast forward to February 2020 I made my initial deposit with the aim of hiking Kilimanjaro in Late March/Early April 2020 then Covid struck. Jackson Lyimo was so accommodative and understanding and assured me that my deposit was safe and I could hike the mountain whenever I was ready. On saturday 24th July 2021(almost a year and a half later) after finishing a work assignment in Moshi I popped into their office to check if I could do the hike, much to my amazement Jackson Lyimo and his brother Abu(this is the guy mostly at the office) organized everything and I started my hike on Sunday 25th a 5 day hike via the Marangu route, I did not have the hiking gear which they provided at amazingly reasonable fees for hire, despite the park fees having been reviewed up by the Tanzanian government I was not charged any extra fees based on the fact that I had paid my deposit almost a year and a half earlier. The hiking guide Athumani was one of the nicest, easy going fellows I have ever interacted with and is well versed with any info regarding safaris and hikes and the cook was excellent serving hot meals every other day, I was so well taken care of during the entire hike duration despite having haggled so hard to get discounted prices for the hike. Would recommend MJ Safaris/Trekking Heroes any day anytime for budget safaris and hikes in Tanzania

Excellent
The Jocky Tours and Safaris is undoubtedly one of the best Safaris Agency I have ever had. I booked my tour with the help of Dany (+254 727 724921) and the pickup person James (+254 722 225107) had the best safari experience of my life. The three days we spend at Mara were full of adventure and beautiful memories. We enjoyed seeing the Africa Big Five, need to specially thank Mr.James our driver who helped us a lot to spot the lions, elephants, cheetahs, and Zebras that roamed in the Mara. The beautiful and rugged terrain coupled by the lions that walked majestically as they waited for their next prey was refreshing. We would send the nights at Rhino Camp , accommodation that summed up the magical safari at Mara. I thank Jocky tours for making this safari memorable and without any furore. I totally recommend their professional services. Happy Safari everyone. Remember to enjoy yourselves!

Helpful, kind and open people.
The tour was very affordable. We had a few small changes to our itinerary but we understand why in these covid times. The office staff were really helpful with rides, fixing an accommodation issue and helping with covid testing. David was particularly helpful. The parks we all amazing and our driver, James, was great and knowledgeable. The accommodation and food was good value for the cost of the tour. We hope to visit this beautiful country again one day!

Excellent door to door service
I had a very late booking and the guys were super helpful accommodating my needs for the safari tour. Collection from airport and drop off at my next destination was included, which made my trip stress free. The safari tour absolutely amazing with great guide and good accommodation lodges and food. Recommend 4day, 3night safari.

Affordable and trustworthy
Thank you Drones (branch of Baboon Budget Safaris) for organising this incredible adventure. Thanks Reuben and Anthony - driver guides - for being always on time, for the knowledge they were so willing to share, for care and especially for thier respect to the wildlife. Choosing budget option I was a bit afraid of accommodation contidions but, as it occured, without need - they were simple but clean and safe. It is typical in Kenya that commuting takes a lot of time (somtimes during safari it takes whole day to go from one park to another) but I was ready for that.
If you are single traveller and wonder if to choose this option I strongly advise you to - beside safe and nice stay you can meet incredible people on the way!

Gilbert was awesome!!!!
We’ve visited Tarangire National Park, Serengeti National Park, the Ngorongoro Crater and Lake Manyara National Park. Our guide was Gilbert Kidaisho. Gilbert is absolutely AWESOME! He is very understanding, patient, flexible, and accommodating. He would make adjustments to accommodate our requests. Gilbert is hospitable, polite, thoughtful and thorough. There are a lot of fine details he thought of that we did not. He also cleaned the jeep inside and out each day. One of the things we found most impressive is his ability to spot the animals far away and/or hiding. He is very sharp, keen, and knowledgeable. We can tell he is passionate about what he does and wants to have an enjoyable and fun experience. When we return, we will definitely make a request for GILBERT!
We trusted him with our lives and he kept us completely safe. We trusted him with our dreams and he made them come true. And for that we are forever grateful. Asante sana!

Albert the office guy who plans your Safari is kind, helpful and always ready to help and answer . They own a dream Hotel that you should ask to stay there it’s not far from Lake Manyara . The price was also reasonable .

the best Safari with Onesmo
A great safari organized by gosheni! during the organization, Peno was very responsive and answered our questions quickly, and she even helped us with the paperwork requested during the covid pandemic, and on our arrival she picked us up from the airport.
The 4 * 4 were really good and comfortable, and all the accomodations were great and the service was top
for our guide Onesmo, he is a great connoisseur of parks and passionate about his job and thanks to him we were able to see the Big Five up close,
Thank you to gocheni, thank you to Pendo and a big thank you to Onesmo who made our honeymoon trip unforgettable
