Papa John’s brilliant guide on board
In the Masai Mara, I felt as if I was in a wild, open-air zoo. We were able to get so close to the animals that we could almost feel their breathing. At Lake Nakuru, the large number of flamingos was especially impressive. At Lake Naivasha, we enjoyed a boat ride and were able to get close to a group of hippos. Seeing them calmly staying together made me feel very happy and peaceful.Papa John’s the best
Hell’s Gate reminded me of scenes from The Lion King, and it was wonderful to walk through such beautiful nature. In Amboseli, we saw a large herd of around 30 elephants, and I was very happy to see a super tusker as well.
Our guide, Papa Jones, was excellent. He listened to our requests as much as possible, took us to a supermarket, and kindly responded to our requests to see both the sunrise and sunset. He also parked the safari vehicle in great spots so that we could see the animals clearly. Overall, it was a very satisfying and unforgettable safari tour.

Papa John is an amazing guide!
I joined Papa John's 7-day tour and visited Maasai Mara, Lake Nakuru, Lake Naivasha, and Amboseli.
Papa John carefully planned each game drive so that we could see the animals we most wanted to see. Thanks to him, we even witnessed the hunting scenes we'd hoped for, which moved us deeply. He also happily accommodated our extra requests, like stopping at a souvenir shop or catching the sunset, and through him we experienced the warmth and kindness of the Kenyan people. Overall, having him as our guide let us relax and fully enjoy the safari and Kenya without any worries. Thank you so much, Papa John!

My first safari experience was absolutely amazing, and my driver was Geeman.
My first safari experience was absolutely amazing, and my driver was Geeman.
He was excellent at reading the animals’ movements and also watching what the other safari vehicles were doing. He always knew exactly where to drive to get us into the best position to see the animals.
His driving skills were incredible. Even on the very rough and bumpy safari roads, he drove safely and confidently while getting us close to the animals. I trusted him completely throughout the entire safari.
If I ever go on safari again, I would definitely want Geeman to be my driver again.
And next time, I hope he can enjoy my Thai massage again in another amazing location!
With gratitude,

Geeman is the best driver
As if this is the first time to come to Africa and join safari tour, they told me that please feel free to ask if you have a question. This kindness gave me the opportunity to enjoy safari.
In addition, the driver was always communicating with other drivers to see animals. I think it is one reason I could see Big 5.

4 days Maasai Mara and Lake Nakuru safari 🇰🇪
From the very beginning Faru made us feel that we were in the best possible hands.
He has an incredible knowledge of wildlife and an amazing ability to spot animals that we would have completely missed. But what makes him truly special is the passion he puts into his work. He never made us feel rushed and always took the time to make sure we were enjoying and understanding what we were seeing.
Faru also went far beyond simply being our safari guide. He gave us recommendations, helped us with other activities and constantly looked for ways to make our experience in Kenya even more special.
We came to Kenya hoping for an amazing safari. We left with unforgettable memories, incredible photographs and a guide we will genuinely remember for a long time.
Thank you, Faru, for making our safari absolutely extraordinary. You were a huge part of what made this trip so special.
If you are booking a safari with Jocky Tours, ask for Francis. Trust me — you want him as your guide. 🌍🦁✨

great experience!!
Our safari with Francis Faru was one of the most incredible experiences of our lives! 🇰🇪🦁
From the very first day, Francis was exceptional. His knowledge of the Maasai Mara and Lake Nakuru, his incredible eye for spotting wildlife, and his passion for what he does made every game drive feel special.
We saw so many amazing animals and had moments we will never forget. But what really stood out was the way Francis went the extra mile for us — he was always attentive, helpful and genuinely wanted us to have the best possible experience.
The time flew by, and we honestly couldn’t have asked for a better guide.
Francis, thank you for the memories, the laughter, the incredible sightings and for showing us Kenya in such a beautiful way. This safari will stay with us forever!
If you’re booking with Jocky Tours, definitely ask for Francis Faru. You won’t regret it! 🌍
