Reliable and punctual
We had a great 4 days Masai Mara and lake Nakuru safari. Our tour guide Mr Daniel did an awesome job finding all the big 5 and also answering all our questions throughout the entire trip. Kudos. This trip will definitely be in our lifetime memories thanks to Mr Daniel.

A terrific tour organisation where you will get value for money
We had A wonderful tour of 6 days Thanks to papa John. We went to three Parcs and we saw many animals Thanks to the attention of papa John; we saw many Eliphants including little ones, A male Lion (Twice) with several females, zebra’s, A lot of Gnoes, monkeys and many others. Papa John lead us on the right time to the right place. He could tell us A lot about the way of living of these animals. Papa John also Made us see the Kilimanjaro which was A magnificant view. Travelling from parc to parc Papa John drove us safe (!) through the traffic. For me papa John Made our tour A succes because he works outoff his hart. So, if you think about A tour in Kenia, ask for papa John and you will get A lot of value for the price you have to pay.
A terrific organisation !

Great Safari with Papa John 🐘
We had six fantastic days with Papa John, who showed us three beautiful parks where we saw many incredible animals. He often managed to be in the right place at the right time. He made sure we were always safe, checking the doors every time.
Papa John even arranged for us to get back the travel adapter we had forgotten, thanks to one of his colleagues at the end of the trip.
I would recommend going on safari with Papa John to all my friends and family!

Excellent tour with Papa John!
We had an incredible 6-day safari experience and felt truly lucky to have Papa John as our guide. Everything was well organized, and Papa John went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable and enjoying every moment.
Papa John shared so much knowledge about the animals, which made the experience even more meaningful. He also made sure we were always in the perfect position to take great photos, we never missed a moment!
If you’re planning a safari and want an unforgettable adventure, make sure to ask for Papa John. You won’t regret it!

Great 6-Day Safari with Papa John!
We just finished a beautiful 6-day safari through three different parks, each with its own charm. I saw everything I was hoping for.
Our driver and guide, Papa John, made the trip extra special. He told us all about the animals with lots of passion and made sure we had a great time. The jeep was always clean and well taken care of.
Communication by email after the quote was clear and easy, and payment went smoothly. The places we stayed at were good and comfortable.
Highly recommend this safari, and especially Papa John!

Excellent tour with Papa John 🦁🦏
We were incredibly lucky to have Papa John as our guide for six unforgettable days in Kenya.
He is incredibly caring and always wants the very best for you. He makes you feel comfortable and safe, both inside and outside the parks. Papa is truly caring and always goes the extra mile to make sure you experience the very best of the safari. Thanks to him, we experienced so many unforgettable moments: a lion climbing a tree, watching a pride of lions feast, spotting cheetahs multiple times, and even seeing a rhino just a few meters away.
Thanks to his perfect positioning, I was able to capture amazing photos with my camera every single time.
Papa John is relaxed, friendly, and truly a pleasure to be around. I also really appreciated his genuine interest in my photos. It shows that he has a real heart for both his passengers and for nature.
Papa John, I wish you and your family all the best. I hope you will enjoy this passion for many more years to come! Thank you for everything!
In short: if you are booking a safari, I highly recommend doing it with Papa John!

Amazing !!!
We have done a 7-day tour and everything has been perfect! We have seen the 5 great and many animals thanks to the driver/guide Jonh Walter who tried hard to find animals and that we could take photos from different angles, it has been a great experience, the time is optimized to the maximum, I recommend 100% the company jockey tours and its driver/guide Jonh Walter.

All went perfect
Incredible. We didn't know what to expect because it was our first time in Kenya, but it exceeded all our expectations. John Walter is a driver/guide who made it possible for us to see the Big 5, always trying to help us, explaining things, and with a great sense of humor. On the other hand, upon arrival, we didn't have a Spanish-speaking guide as we had agreed, but two hours into the trip, when we thought we wouldn't have one, they found one and he came with us. Furthermore, they picked us up promptly and dropped us off at the airport on time. I would definitely go back and recommend it.

Great Maasai Mara Experience
I had a wonderful Maasai Mara safari trip with Jocky Tours and my driver, Wycliffe. Although the trip was quite short (Only 3 days. I highly recommend going for longer because the drive from Nairobi to Maasai Mara takes 6–7 hours, which leaves very little time for game viewing), I had the chance to see elephants, lions, cheetahs, and — very luckily — witness a spectacular river crossing during the great wildebeest migration.
Wycliffe was very thoughtful and knowledgeable about the Maasai Mara, and he shared a lot of information with us throughout the trip. I stayed at Lenchada Camping, and as a solo traveller, I was given a private tent with full amenities and a spacious bathroom. The staff at the tour office were also very kind — they even accompanied me to exchange money since I hadn’t brought USD or KES.
One small suggestion would be for Lenchada Camping: since the tents are not soundproof, we could hear everything going on outside. Some guests were talking and laughing very loudly in the middle of the night, while most people needed to rest early after a long day and to wake up early the next morning. For this reason, it would be helpful if Lenchada had a rule prohibiting noise after 10 or 11 PM to ensure all guests can rest and stay healthy.
Overall, I was very satisfied with the trip and hope to return someday.
