Unforgettable safari experience with Jocky Tours
We went on a 10-day safari in Kenya and we are extremely satisfied with Jocky Tours. We had absolutely no problems starting from the initial emails to Minneh to the drop off at the airport at the end of the trip. Minneh is very friendly and responsive. We never had to wait for more than a day to hear a reply from her. The overall cost of the safari was very reasonable even though we had a customized itinerary. We had our own private safari vehicle and John, our driver cum guide was beyond excellent. He was very knowledgeable about the national parks and the animals and we had a number of excellent sightings of the big five. Our accommodations at Amboseli (Kibo safari camp) was excellent and a nice end to the safari.
If there was one thing that could have been better, it would be the accommodations at Masai Mara and Nakuru. We were in a camp at Masai Mara and in a regular hotel in Nakuru city. Both these places were clean and comfortable but it could have been better. One suggestion to Jocky Tours would be that they should offer the customer the option of staying at slightly more expensive campsites/lodges and then let the customer decide if they want to pay more or not.
But overall the entire experience was wonderful and I would definitely recommend Jocky Tours!

Jocky Tours showed me God's Own Den !!!
Hi,
I am from India and my long time wish to visit Kenya finally happened with the help of Ms. Minneh and Jocky Tours.
In India, the state Kerala is also called as "God's own country". Similarly, I call Kenya as "God's own Den".
We went to Kenya for 10 days. The itinerary was planned by ourself and Jocky Tours helped us to fine tune it. 4 days in Masai Mara, 5th day drive to Nakuru and on the way we visited Lake Naivasha, 6th day - Lake Nakuru, 7th day drive to Aberdare and on the way visit Thompson Falls - stay at The Ark. 8th day - drive to Amboseli. 9th day - full day Amboseli safari. 10th day - drive back to airport.
Ms. Minneh was very responsive to all our mails and replied very well to all our queries. The driver/guide she assigned to us was very good and always in an enthu to take us out on safari. The vehicle she provided was also good. The picnic lunch that she arranged were a real picnic lunch in the middle of the national park and were very filling.
This trip has left me wanting to go back once again to Kenya. Maybe, next time I plan to visit Samburu National Park and Sweetwaters.
Asante Sana (Thank you so much in Swahili)
It is a nice safaris with Jocky tours.
The camp security is best beyond the expectations. Everything is safe. Jocky Tours also has a good arrangement on the safaris. We found out many kinds of animals.
Besides when we arrived at camp, the power socket does not work until we left, even though i drived the service manager in the camp, it is not convient.

The first and best safari..
Jocky tours gave us a wonderful safari experience.
It was a great trip. Me and my family enjoyed all the game drives at Masai mara, the accommodation, food, drive at Lake Nakuru and everything else.
Ms.Minneh arranged the trip really well.
Mr. John, our driver, was a very good guide for us there. He did his best to show us all the animals and places he could and gave us interesting small stories about the animals. A special thanks to him.
Altogether, we had a fantastic tour and enjoyed it to the core.
Jocky tours really lived up to the expectations we had.
The first impression is always the best, and we loved our first safari.

Great safari at a low price
Thank you very much for the great safari!
I have 5 times experience of tour with Jockey tours, and every safari was fantastic!
The driver has great knowledge and experience, and he has the skill to stop a car at the right place to take a photo of animals!
The Lenchada camp is very clean and comfortable, and has security guards of masai people all day and night. It really reassured me. As the security is very important in Kenya, I recommend the safety campsite.
the tour cost was reasonable, you might want to compare the price with another companies.

Best Value Safari!
John our guide picked us up from Nairobi, ad after an 'african massage' we arrived at our very comfortable tent.
With each safari drive we saw different animals with our guide stopping for perfect picture locations. Great value for money with a smiling guide for a recommended budget trip. We saw 4/5 of the big 5

Great Safari tour and wonderful experience!
We had a school group of 3 families; 6 parents and 4 young kids. I'm one of parents and the coordinator handling the tour arrangement. I contacted several Safari tour companies and Jocky Tours is the best from beginning, in terms of timely communication, knowledge and price. The company representative Minneh is very professional and responsive to all my questions. We arrived in Kenya in March for a 6-day tour, from Masai Mara to Amboseli. They picked us up at the airport at midnight, and dropped off on the last night, everything went smoothly, and it was a great Safari tour, seeing all kinds of wild animals and sceneries. Both parents and kids were so happy about the whole experiences and arrangement by the tour company. Our driver/guide Steve is exceptionally good, great knowledge, easy to talk, has sense of humor too.
Although it is a budget tour company, but to our request, they booked luxury and mid-level hotels , and still the best price, tour package, and quality of service.
Overall, this is a great and reliable Safari company. I would use them again, and highly recommend them as well. Thanks!
