We had 5-day Masai Mara, Nakuru and Naivasha tour which was perfect and left us with quite joy.
5/5

We had the 5-day Masai Mara, Nakuru and Naivasha tour and it was really exceeded our expectations thanks to Jocky Tours and our guide Johnny. Jocky Tours handled every problem with such an ease which shows that they really have the expertise that is needed for this job. Our guide Johnny was quite helpful and really an expert in recognizing animal behaviors to get better views of them. He handled every situation very professionally. I strongly suggest Jocky Tours with Johnny as the tour guide.

Great Safari Tour
5/5

The Safari Tour was just awesome. Our guide Johnny made sure we saw a lot of animals, also got pretty close to them and could watch them from the perfect perspective. The camp we stayed in in Masai Mara was also very comfortable and pleasant. We slept in big tents and at night there was a cozy bonfire. Everyone around there was so welcoming and friendly. After two days in Masai Mara we proceeded to lake Nakuru and there we stayed in a very nice hotel with a pool and spa (can recommend the massages!). At Lake Nakuru we also saw many animals. The boat tour in lake Naivasha was one of our highlights, it was so beautiful and calming. The only negative thing about the hotels in Nakuru and Naivasha was that there was no warm water in the shower.
I can totally recommend this tour!!!

Awesome budget option
5/5

We loved our overall experience with Jocky - our guide Dennis was so knowledgable. Our 7 day safari was great value for the cost and we felt like we saw so much of the country.

Organized, Professional, Fun
5/5

Booking a safari without from afar is really difficult and we took our time. Jocky Tours were recommended to us from multiple sources and we got in contact with them and conveyed our plans (7 day safari that includes Masai Mara, Amboseli, Lakes Nakuru and Naivasha as well as Hell's Gate) and our flight details. We really wanted to make sure that our experience was smooth and the accommodations were clean and the food was reliable, so we wanted to go for the mid-range option for those. Also, since it was me and my friend (both girls) we wanted to be with a group instead of private safari to feel also safe and comfortable. Jocky Tours absolutely delivered on all of these - in terms of organization, from the pick-up from the Nairobi Airport to the drop-off, we completely felt safe and taken care of. Anything we wanted changed, we need not ask a second time, they took care of it immediately.

All of the mid-range hotels (except for one in Naivasha called Panaroma Lodge) were clean and comfortable. The food in general for all safari bookings is not very impressive, but fulfilling nonetheless and the organization of for example lunches during game drives were all taken care of by the tour. You do not need to go out of your way about anything, they really take care of it.

One highlight of the trip for me was our guide Francis. He is immensely friendly and very knowledgable. For some guides, you hear that they memorized some texts and are just reciting those, and they do not know which terrain to drive on or how to behave when entering the parks or engaging with other people but Francis was exceptional. First of all, he answered at least a million questions, not only about the animals but also about conservation efforts, our questions about Kenya and football in all earnest. Second of all, you can see that he has been doing this for 14 years as everyone knows him and respect him. Further, the roads and the situations with the animals, especially us as two girls, etc., it is important that you feel comfortable, safe and secure with your guide, which we did. So huge credit goes to Francis for the success of our trip.

Overall, I appreciate the amazing hospitality shown and the professionalism and am grateful. I would recommend this tour company wholeheartedly to all friends and family.

Excellent safari with great guide
5/5

We had an amazing safari experience with Jocky Tours, who were very responsive from the start and arranged everything for us smoothly without any problem. They were 24 hours reachable and answered all our questions and requests promptly.

Our guide Francis was great, very friendly and knowledgeable, also a competent guide and a game-driver. He made us feel secure on the game drives, and he knew where to find the best wildlife sightings. He also shared with us his insights and stories about the culture and history of the places we visited and he was always ready to help our needs.

We enjoyed every moment of the safari and we highly recommend Jocky Tours and Francis as a guide for anyone who wants to have a memorable and hassle-free safari adventure.

An unforgettable safari adventure in Kenya
5/5

I recently embarked on a safari adventure in Kenya that turned out to be one of the most remarkable journeys of my lifetime. From the moment we arrived, the level of service provided by our guide, Jimmy, was truly outstanding. His commitment to our satisfaction and unwavering sense of responsibility significantly enhanced our overall experience.

Throughout the safari, Jimmy's attentiveness and keen sensitivity to the movements of wildlife were truly impressive. His extensive knowledge of the animals and their behavior allowed us to witness breathtaking moments of nature's wonders. Jimmy's genuine passion for his work shone through, and it often felt like he possessed a sixth sense when it came to tracking the animals. He was always available to answer our questions, share fascinating facts, and cater to our every need.

In addition to his expertise, Jimmy's exceptional character and patience deserve special recognition. He consistently went above and beyond to ensure that everyone in our group felt comfortable and engaged. His friendly and approachable nature created a warm and welcoming atmosphere throughout the safari. Every interaction with Jimmy reflected his dedication to providing us with an unforgettable experience.

I would like to express my sincere gratitude to Jimmy for making this safari a truly extraordinary adventure. His professionalism, expertise, and genuine care for our enjoyment left a lasting impression. I would not hesitate to choose Jimmy as my guide for future trips, and I highly recommend him to anyone seeking a remarkable safari experience in Kenya.

I would also like to extend my thanks to Hellen for her detailed introductions and excellent organization upon our arrival. Her efforts in ensuring that everything was well-arranged added further value to our safari experience.
