Excellent!
5/5

We were on safari for the first time. We didn't know what to expect, but everything went perfectly! The guide named Kikitu is very cheerful and has a great sense of humor! He was attentive to every guest, gave us a lot of interesting and useful information. The guide tried to show us all the animals! We saw everyone except the rhino. I hope that next time he will show it to us! Kikitu, you're doing great!

A kind and brave driver
5/5

Among the Big 5, lions, elephants, leopards and buffalo were seen very close. I'm very satisfied to see the cheetah so close that I can't believe it.
1.5 days of safari tours, tent accommodation, and meals were all included, and I felt that $340 was a very good deal.
It was also very fun to pay an additional $20 and go to the village of Masai and see their dance and house.

Unforgettable safari experience with Jeff - A true gem
5/5

O ur six-day safari exploring Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru, and Amboseli was an absolute dream come true, and it wouldn’t have been the same without our incredible tour guide and driver, Jeff. We had the most unforgettable adventure.

Jeff’s knowledge of the wildlife, landscapes, and local culture was truly impressive. He effortlessly shared fascinating facts and stories about the animals we encountered, making every moment on the safari educational and engaging.

Not only was Jeff an exceptional guide and amazing driver but he also had an great ability to spot wildlife from a distance. It seemed like he had a sixth sense for finding the most elusive creatures, and we were fortunate enough to witness some truly remarkable sightings.

Jeff’s driving skills were equally commendable. Navigating through rugged terrains and challenging road conditions, he ensured our safety and comfort throughout the journey. His expertise behind the wheel allowed us to fully immerse ourselves in the breathtaking landscapes, without a single worry.

What truly set Jeff apart was his warm and friendly nature. We cannot express our gratitude enough for Jeff’s exceptional service and dedication. We finished our safari with a deep appreciation for its wildlife and culture, and it’s all thanks to Jeff.

The agency was great, they answered all our questions when we had them and they were very supportive in helping us designing the perfect trip. Everything we talked was fulfilled.

If you’re planning a safari adventure in Kenya, we wholeheartedly recommend Jocky Tours and requesting Jeff as your tour guide and driver. His expertise, will undoubtedly make your journey an unforgettable one. Thank you, Jeff and Jocky, for an extraordinary experience that will forever hold a special place in our hearts!

Possibly poor computer security
2/5

We contacted Jocky Tours for a quote. They responded and we started communicating with them through the email address on their website [email protected]. All communication was to / from this email. We sent payment as requested. When we got to Nairobi, they had no record of the emails or the payment. We suspect their email was hacked and our communications were being directed to a fraudulent third party. We have opened a fraud investigation on our side but caution anyone to be careful doing business with them.

5/5

We had an amazing tour guide - Stanley! There was heavy rains in the first day and the roads were bad but Stanley got us through safety and made sure we were okay! Also he was super knowledgeable about everything! He also made sure we got to see The Big 5!!! Best Tour Guide Ever! Highly recommend and will be sending all my family and friends to him!

We also stayed at Jambo Mara had the most amazing sleep and super comfortable bed which was important since we were waking up early!

Amazing 7-day safari with our guide Johny
5/5

We just finished our 7-day private safari to Masai Mara, Nakuru, Navaisha and Amboseli. Every park was breathtaking and different. Endless green plains in Masai Mara with abundant wildlife, a prehistoric looking lake with rhinos in Nakuru, hippos with a mysterious island in Navaisha and finally the jawdropping Kilimanjaro with massive herds of elephants in Amboseli. I believe none of these parks should be skipped for the true experience.
Booking was fluent. Payment is best in dollars cash to avoid a credit-card surcharge. Our guide, Johny, was very professional, knowledgeable and he knew all the parks like his back pocket. Highly recommended!

Great experience! Price/value very good!
5/5

My partner and I chose for the 7-day safari. We visited the Masai Mara where we slept in a lodge in the parc, the camp was basic but clean. The people were very friendly, the food was basic but very nice! The surveillance in the lodge by the Masai men to protect us against wild animals, made the experience even beter! Further we visited Nakuru and Navaisha where we slept in two hotels, basic but clean and cosy. Before we got to the last park we biked around in Hells Gate, it was amazing to be so close to zebras and girafes! At last we stayed for two days in the AA lodge in Amboseli, where we had a beautiful view on the Kilimanjaro. The lodges were super nice, clean and beautiful!
I would highly recommend the 7-day safari, we saw the big 5, breathtaking landscapes and so much more… Our guide Johny was very friendly, funny and easygoing. He had a great knowledge of the nature and the parks!
Jocky tour is price/value the best tour operator to go on safari with!

I have done the safari with my partner and we had Francis as the driver. No complaints. He was very effective, always punctual, helping us with everything and explaining everything we asked. I would repeat with him without hesitation
