With Francis as our driver it was AMAZING! We witnessed so many animals with his guidance!!
5/5

Rhe best part of our package were the 3 safari days. 2 in the Mara national park! We would never have seen so many animals without Francis as our guide! His knowledge of the roads in the park, the animals and where in their natural habitat they would most likely be! We had many tour trucks following Francis, because they knew he'd find the best views of each animal. His knowledge of each species, such as their life expectancy, their daily habits, their group activities, and more, were extensive. He never got tired of answering all our tourist questions, that im sure he's heard many times before. We always felt very safe with Francis as our driver, he never took undue chances and reminded us always that all the animals are wild and to be respected. When to be quiet , as not to scare the animals. We saw lions eating a kill and other lions stalking a giraffe, a cheetah with his fresh kill, 2 leopards catching and then loosing a mongoose. Many water buffalos & zebras from the great migration grazing in the grasslands. Hippos with their babies in the river, and crocodiles at the river. Many beautiful giraffes and their babies. Cape. Buffalo, hyenas, vultures, African storks, warthog, or "pumbas" as their called with their babies. 2 highlights were catching a sleeping full mane male lion relaxing by a tree with his brother. Then a herd of magnificent Elephants grazing by a waterhole, with a large male elephant and several female elephants with their babies! As we enjoyed this special visit with the elephants we could see many tour trucks coming to see, because they knew Francis has found them!
Francis also told us he knows most.of the other tour drivers from other companies as well, and they all keep in touch on a cb radio when one of them sees something they think the other tourists would like to see. It was wonderful to see all their cooperation to keep the park safe for both people and the animals! Francis also spoke perfect English for us Americans.
We hope to come back some day! Francis's brother, John is also a newer tour guide & driver, he was great and took us to the Masai village and back to our hotel in Nairobi, as Francis had another safari longer than ours.
Thank you again, Francis, for making our safari beyond our wildest dreams & expectations!!!
5 stars 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 for Francis & the tour.
accommodations were clean and nice, a big tent for 3 of us, with mosquito net for each bed. The grounds were nice and attended. Every night they had a bond-type fire where guest & staff could gather to talk about anything they liked. There is 24 hour security all the staff was were very nice. Attached toilet & shower. Hot water when requested for oyr showers. Breakfast & lunch served each day.

5/5

The 4 day safari was amazing, guided by Kelvinmimi, who was very professional. He took us to great spots and explained everything related to Kenyan fauna and flora in detail. I would definitely recommend him! 😁 The tour was 100% worth it and was on top of the expectations.

All good
4/5

Smooth journey with the Jocky Tours during the 8 days Maasai Mara-Nakuru-Naivasha-Amboseli tour in Kenya. I like that there is minimal deposit required and email communication with the office is smooth.

Our mid range accommodations are fantastic though it depends on luck on the animal sightings. First guide Wickcliff is great but second guide James can explain more i find.

Pickups are punctual.

4/5

Amazing safari tour to see the big 5, just a bit shame we didn't get to see the wildebeest crossing & leopard. Luckily we ended in a good note, able to see the Mt Kilimanjaro in clear view.
