Very reliable and professional
My partner and I did the 7 day Masai Mara/Nakuru/ Naivasha and Amboseli shared tour. Our first guide was Kush. He made our tour of the Masai Mara amazing. He had so much patience for our never ending questions. I wanted to see certain prides of lions and he made it happen. We also got to see tiny lion cubs which was just amazing. He really did make our time in the Masai Mara amazing. We always felt safe and well informed. Our next guide was Dennis. We did Nakuru/ Naivasha and Amboseli with Dennis. He was another great guide. The amount of driving he did as astonishing. He was a great driver is some very questionable roads. He also made sure we had plenty of time to see all animals and birds we wanted too. He made sure the was plenty of toilet breaks. Which is really important when you are in a land cruiser for hours. The accommodation was better than expected for budget accommodation and the food was good if a bit repetitive. I would most definitely recommend Jocky Tours. Both Kush and Dennis made our safari amazing. Really can't thank Dennis and Kush enough.

Amazing once in a lifetime experience
I did a 7 day safari with jocky tours and it was 1st class . We had 2 tour guides during our trip kush and Dennis both of whom were exceptional they bent over backwards so we could see all the animals plenty of drink and washroom stops both very knowledgeable and professional. They both played i big role in a very successful and enjoyable tour . The accommodation was better than I expected the food was of good quality if somewhat repetitive .
Overall I found the tour to be very good value for money and would highly recommend to anyone considering doing jocky tours

Excellent
The operator and Tour guide Ken were awesome. They managed everything so well. If I ever visit Masai Mara I would definitely book through them. It’s been a pleasure. I had spent the best 2 days of my life in Masai Mara.

Masai Mara - a guaranteed highlight
Jocky Tours arranged a 3-day safari for me to the Masai Mara, which included an evening game drive and a full day in the reserve. Communication throughout the booking process was clear, and the accommodation they recommended—Jambo Mara Lodge—was excellent. I joined an existing group and was lucky to end up with a fun, friendly crew.
Our safari guide, Dennis, was fantastic. Quiet and soft-spoken, but incredibly knowledgeable and constantly coordinating with rangers and other drivers to make sure we didn’t miss any key sightings. Thanks to him, we had about 15 unforgettable minutes alone with two lionesses and their cubs. He clearly knows the park inside out and had plenty of insight to share. We managed to see everything except the elusive rhino.
On the last day, we chose to visit a Masai village. The community was very welcoming, and it was fascinating to learn about their way of life. Do bring some cash if you’d like to purchase their handmade crafts—it's a meaningful way to support their livelihood.
My only caution is the long 6–7 hour drive from Nairobi. It’s not the most comfortable journey, and the seats in our vehicle were a bit worn. After five hours in the back row, my body definitely felt it. Thankfully, during the actual safari drives, you can stand up in the jeep, which makes a big difference.
Overall, the Masai Mara is a guaranteed highlight, and Jocky Tours delivered a memorable experience.

He was helpful and went the extra mile to help us see the Big Five in Kenya.
Jocky Tours and Safaris gave us an incredible experience. Our guide was helpful, knowledgeable, and truly went the extra mile to ensure we saw 4 out of the Big Five in Kenya. The entire trip was well-organized, comfortable, and exceeded our expectations. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a reliable and professional safari operator.
Absolutely amazing!
Our experience with Jocky Tours exceeded every expectation from the very first moment.
We booked our entire honeymoon safari from Colombia, and Maureen was incredible—she helped us organize every detail of our itinerary with patience, clarity, and genuine dedication.
Once in Kenya, we had the privilege of traveling with Isaac, the best guide we could have ever asked for.
From day one, his knowledge, professionalism, and calm confidence made every part of the journey—from Nairobi through Maasai Mara, Nakuru, and Amboseli—truly exceptional.
On our very first safari day, we managed to see 4 of the Big Five, and the following day Isaac gifted us one of the most unforgettable moments of our trip: thanks to his experience and determination to explore the right area, we were able to spot a black rhino that hadn’t been seen in more than six months! Absolutely magical.
Beyond being an expert guide, Isaac made every day even more special:
his amazing playlist, perfect timing, safe driving, and incredible eye for wildlife turned every game drive into something magnificent, emotional, and surreal.
All the accommodations chosen by Jocky Tours were warm, comfortable, and hosted by wonderful people who took care of every detail to make our honeymoon truly unforgettable.
Would we do it again? Absolutely.
And without hesitation, we would choose Jocky Tours and Isaac again—the best guide of all.

The best time!
I was back to Kenya for the second time this year with Sir Charles and, like last time, had the best time! Honestly would say that safari is the most special and amazing experience, and Charles does it best. I’ve seen all of the big five both times & got the most special photos. It was really well organised from start to finish, good value for money (unbelievable!) and going in November was perfect (the weather ideal and not as busy). The back office team were also great and answered any questions really quickly. My only tip would be to stay in the Jambo when in the Mara if you can, the other accommodation on the budget option was great (bring some snacks)! But if you’re thinking about it don’t hesitate and ask for Charles if you can - thank you for the most beautiful memories and trip!!!
