Perfect Company to deal with 3 days & 2 nights Masai Mara
We were very lucky, our driver/guide Andrew wanted to ensure we had the best experience possible, he was very knowledgeable and gave us lots of information. We managed to see a live hunt by a pride of lions, we got to see 3 out of the big 5 and managed to see many other animals. We had a 4WD jeep and booked a private tour- well worth paying the extra. It truly was perfect and a fantastic experience. Jocky tours were very easy to deal with and gave very good value for money. We stayed in a lodge and it too was wonderful. The visit to the Masai village was so humbling, please take pens, pencils and sweets for the children and see how grateful they are, please give generously if you can as this is how they pay for the children’s schooling. The boat safari is worth paying for with the nature walk at navaisha lake and the nature walk where you get to walk with giraffes, zebras, impalas & wildebeest to name just a few. I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending this company. Ask for Andrew as he was amazing and will ensure you get the best experience.

perfect 4-day Masai Mara and Lake Nakuru budget tour
I joined Jocky's 4-day Masai Mara and Lake Nakuru budget safari tour and had a blast! Jocky Tours were the quickest to respond and provided helpful information (e.g. I didn't know that there were 2 options - minivan and Land Cruiser). It was the best decision to pay a little extra for the Land Cruiser! Our driver/guide Johnny is THE BEST! With him we saw the big five up close and personal. Nothing was too much trouble for him - he would move his car just inches so that we could get a better view of an animal and he even woke up early just so we could catch the sun rise. Johnny was also very knowledgeable about the different animals but the best thing about him is that he is so jolly and happy! Jocky Tours is really lucky to have Johnny on their team. I would highly recommend Johnny (and Jocky Tours) for any safari in Kenya!
As an aside, it was also great to see all the tour operators working together to car pool tourists returning to Nairobi everyday! This is in the best interest of all tour operators as it enables tours of any duration to start on any day (without having to wait for a minimum number of people to join a particular tour with a particular tour company departing on a particular day). Tour operators elsewhere should consider adopting this approach.

GeeMan for the big 5!!
GeeMan is the Man. He showed us the BIG 5 in one morning. He just knew his way around the reserve. We could also make use of his vast knowledge of the animals. Topped with some great sense of humor this 3 day trip was simple memorable. Way to go GeeMan.

John was a great, knowledgable and entertaining tour guide!
I loved the tour. The safari was absolutely great. It was well organized, even though the people on the tour constantly changed in order to fill up the car. Our tour guide John was very reliable and always on time.

Absolutely brilliant, He is a profession in his career
Gerald Wangui aka Mr. Geeman gave us a tour to remember, gave us the best tour ever. He was always on time, very informative, answered all our questions and his knowledge about the park and game drive is amazing. He treated us with much respect and much love and humor, solved all our queries and I must say that he's a Top tier in his field. Would wish to have him again in our future travel. 5 stars all the way

The King Of The Savanna
Hello, just finished a two days tour at the Masai Mara National Park. Everything was absolutely perfect, no bad comments to write.
Our guide was Yasin. Don't look at the lions to find the King Of The Savanna, Yasin IS the King!

Excellent.
The safari was great. Managed to see the big five in one morning.
Magnificent Tour!
This tour is definitely worth the money! Accommodation was perfect with warm showers, comfy beds (mosquito nets included), and delicious food. We loved our driver Albert and communicating with Minneh from Jocky Tours.

It was amazing with unforgettable moments thanks to our driver who bring our dream to life.
The discussions with « Jocky tours and safari » to prepare our arrival and define a pick up point was fluid and responses from them came quite fast.
The overall experience is wonderful and represents a good value for money. We have not been disappointed at all.
We have felt very safe with our driver Andrew all along the tour in and out of the Maasai Mara national reserve. He knew all the places where there was the best chance of seeing top 5 animals.
Andrew was dedicated, patient, flexible and he got our queries handled well. I hope the one is reading, will have the chance to be driven by Andrew.

amazing experience
We went on a three-day safari in the Masai Mara. We are actually in the reserve for a day or so, the first day is a 5 hour drive. And an hour and a half in the reserve and the second day a full day in the reserve. On the third day we went to a Maasai village, an interesting experience but not mandatory and a bit too touristy, and from there we returned to Nairobi. The overall experience was good but we would have been happy for a little more time inside the reserve and to see more animals. We got the guide Jimmy who was just amazing! He knew how to answer every question we asked and took us to see all the animals we wanted on safari and took care of everything we needed during the days with him. Highly recommend asking him as a guide!
