Reviews
Hassle free, one stop shop that seems to be a favourite with guests and guides
I chose Jocky Tours because they were very prompt with their responses, offered a competitive price, and had thousands of great reviews.
All the drivers from pickup to drop off were friendly, reliable, on time and very helpful. James our main driver/guude definitely used his network and driving skills to find us the best animals for viewing and taking pictures. Thank you!
The only thing that was a bit less great is that because Jocky is a big company with lots of guests, I think I somehow expected that there would be enough people to put similar tours and travel styles (budget, luxury etc) together so the rest of the people in the group joining tour would also be staying in similar accommodation and doing the same amount of days.. this wasn’t the case. While the group was cool and we got along, people were on 3/5/7 day tours and all booked from different agencies — so there was a bit of confusion as there were differing expectations, and also a bit of movement in group members as people finished their tour and moved on while others stayed and new ones joined. Then there was the time spent dropping off / picking up from different hotels. I am not sure if maybe this is because it is not yet high season in July and so we have to combine tours but my feeling is that it would be way more efficient if we were all on the same tour / accommodation level.
Still all in all a great experience - we saw the Big Five, took lots of pictures and had a great time - and we didn’t have to worry about accomodation, transport, entrance fees, food in all my 5 days there so for that I thank Jocky and guide James. Asante sana.
I have spoken to a few guides and they all say Jocky is one of the best and most experienced tour operators so I guess you can’t go wrong picking them.

Excellent and friendly
I did the 4-Day Masai Mara Lake Nakuru tour with Papa as a guide.
Everything was surreal from accommodation to safaris.
Papa has provided me the best games drive.

Friendly, lots of contacts and always looking for the best and safest view.
I did the 4-day Safari in the Masai Maara and Lake Nakuru. I saw all of the big 5 in a not so common way.
It was really great, highly recommend!!

Great experience!
I was a solo traveler and did a 3 day safari group tour at the Masai Maara with Jocky tours staying in the Mara Sopa Ledges. It was a great experience overall! Especial thanks to Albert who was my guide during the safari! The tour was mostly on time, they are very flexible and resourceful to solve all needs and unpredictable things which can be hard for a 7 people group setting. Albert was very invested in trying to show us as many cool animals as possible. The Sopa Ledge was super nice, clean and comfortable, offering night activities (bars, dances and live music) and the best part was the food, we even had a BBQ one night which was very good. I recommend the tour 100%.

Trustworthy and professional
We booked a 6 day safari with Jocky Tours and we could not have been more content with their services. The communication was throughout the journey was on point.
Our flight was delayed and we missed the pick-up time, yet they still managed to make us join the group.
Our special thanks goes to our guide Moses who gave 100% of himself to make sure we could experience the wildlife to the fullest. Thanks to him we could see the Big Five! He also gave very interesting facts about all the species we saw. Such a fantastic and professional guide! Also, the best driver!
The accommodation was great and the food was delicious, adapted to tourists but local tastes.
We had an unforgettable experience that we could recommend to everybody!
