Fantastic week with an even better guide, Francis!
5/5

We booked the 7 day safari which included 2 nights Maasai Mara, Nakuru, Naivasha, 2 nights Amboseli. It was a great balance of safari days and city days in between. We got so lucky with making friends on the tour including our amazing guide Francis. I will talk more about him below.

Our 2 days in Maasai Mara were incredible. We saw cheetahs, lions, and leopards all up very very close. Elephants that walked right by us. Hippos and crocodiles. A baby animal for everything too. The camp decent but maybe not as comfortable as some would like. Not a big deal for the first nights since you're excited. I think you can ask to upgrade though if you wanted. We did a quick village tour for $10 which was a bit over an hour. It was interesting and fun so I'd say worth it to see how the people there live. They do try to sell you some things at the end and they aren't cheap really but I thought of it as a donation so I bought a club as a souvenir. There were a few things we could do that cost extra over the tour but they were pretty worth it. It might be good to check ahead though to see what is paid and what is extra so you can budget it in.

Nakuru park was a surprisingly great stop too where we got another leopard and lots of rhinos. I think we got a bit lucky but with how they radio each other between the cars it seemed like a great system to find animals that other drivers spotted. We had our evening open so we visited a local school and it was so eye opening of an experience. They need a lot of help here in many places but what some of the leaders are doing for their community is amazing. If you want to check that out look up Soar Kenya on Facebook and look for James Yegon. They can pick you up to show you around if you would like to see things and donate some money to help.

Hells Gate and Amboseli were both very great too and it was nice to change the landscape and see different parts of Kenya. We did a boat ride at Naivasha which was worth it. Lots of hippos! They had ah optional walk for $50 too on the island which was cool but would have been better on the island it was just flooded at the time. Hells Gate bike ride was worth doing I think but a bit tough of a bike in terms of heat and terrain. Just a couple hours total though. Amboseli didn't have the range of animals as Maasai but the elephants were incredible. They were everywhere and had so many babies too. The view of Kilimanjaro was so cool too.

There were some changes to itinerary because of a mix up but we decided to take the changes so that we could stay with Francis. He super personable and knowledgeable, 16 years experience, and we couldn't ask him something he didn't know. We would often say trust in Francis if we parked or went somewhere and it would always pay off with great views and animals. If Francis started ripping down the road we knew something good was coming up! He was flexible with us when we needed (ex. dropped us off at the Tanzania border at the end) and also great to recommend places to go out at night when we were in the city. Your tour guide can make or break your trip and this one made it so much better! Overall this was a great way to see a lot of Kenya in a short time for a fair price. Be okay with plans changing a bit and rolling with the punches and you will have a fantastic experience!

We had an epic week observing so many animals!
5/5

We had such a wonderful week seeing so much variety. We saw all the big 5 plus so many other animals including young animals! I was happy to get to see some animals up close! Great communication from our driver Francis and we learned a ton from him! For a budget tour, my expectations were blown out of the water! Schedule was very punctual and that was appreciated. Our guide was very accommodating to our requests, for example a different drop off after the tour. Thank you Francis and jocky tour for everything!

We had a great time in Amboselli and Masai Mara thanks to Jocky tours, especially our guide Joshua!
5/5

Our tour guide Joshua was brilliant, he was so knowledgable about the animals and the park. We saw the big five and even got to see the Mara river crossing! It was a brilliant experience and great value for money. If you’re booking with jocky tours ask for Joshua!

JUST WOW
5/5

If you're thinking about a safari, it has to be with Jocky Tours and driver Jack! What an incredible experience. We saw the Big Five and even the Ugly Five. Jack took care of us every step of the way and answered all of our questions with great knowledge. The organization of the safari was flawless. I highly recommend it to everyone!

Amazing 6-day budget safari with Stanley
5/5

We did the 6-Day budget safari to Maasai Mara, Lake Nakuru and Amboseli and had the most wonderful time. The parks themselves are beautiful, with each their own special attractions. The journey from one park to the other is quite long, but 100% worth it. The accommodations are up to standard. When you book a budget trip: don’t expect extreme luxury, as that is not what you pay for. However, all accommodations are comfortable, which is all you want after a long day of safari.

Our biggest thanks to our guide Stanley, without him, this trip would not have been half as good. He was able to show us everything (including the Big Five!) we could imagine and more and was able to predict where and when animals would be and provide us with the best photo opportunities. On top of that, Stanley himself is just a really kind person who'll do everything to make your trip as amazing as possible. I can't praise him enough! Do yourself a favour and ask for Stanley as your guide!
