Unforgettable Safari with Kikitu – A True Master of the Maasai Mara
5/5

This April, Daniel and I (Jose) had the absolute privilege of exploring the breathtaking landscapes of Kenya, and I can say without hesitation that the experience was made unforgettable thanks to our guide, Kikitu.

From the moment we set off for the Maasai Mara and Lake Nakuru, Kikitu's passion, knowledge, and deep connection to the land were evident. He didn’t just show us the wildlife – he taught us to see through his eyes. Every animal encounter was not just exciting, but educational, Kikitu always had something fascinating to share, and his excitement was contagious. You could tell he loves what he does – and it makes all the difference.

His intuition and sharp eye for spotting animals were truly impressive. Time and time again, he managed to find wildlife where others had passed by unknowingly. It felt like magic – but it was all skill, dedication, and a deep respect for nature.

What truly stood out was Kikitu's heart. He brings joy to everything he does. His smile, his laughter, and his genuine care for his guests made us feel more like friends than clients. He was always present, always involved, and made sure every moment was meaningful.

We also can’t forget his amazing assistant, Kopu (I hope I’m spelling it right!) – calm, capable, and a perfect complement to Kikitu’s energy. Together, they were an incredible team, making us feel safe, inspired, and totally immersed in the adventure.

This was not just a safari. It was a life experience – thanks to Kikitu. If you are planning to visit Kenya, do everything you can to have him as your guide. He doesn’t just show you Africa – he helps you feel it.

Asante sana, Kikitu and Kopu – you made this journey extraordinary.

Excellent
5/5

We did a 3 day Masai Mari safari. It was an absolutely amazing experience. We saw a great range of animals and the cultural experience of the masi people was enriching!
Our tour guide Francis was one word "outstanding!". His very warm and friendly interactions, skillful driving, local knowledge and knowledge during the safari made all the difference to make the trip truly memorable. It would not have been the wonderful experience without him!
We would definitely recommend to others and come again for sure.

Amazing experience in Masai Mara
5/5

We had a day and a half in Masai Mara, and it was incredible - mostly thanks to our knowledgeable guide Francis. He made us feel at home right away and shared interesting info about the animals and the park.
He really went out of his way to make sure we got the most out of the trip. We had a truly amazing time with lots of special moments in sight of the animals.
I’d definitely recommend Jockey Tours, and if you get Francis as your guide, consider yourself lucky: you’re in for a great time!

Amazing trip with Jocky tours and Moses!
5/5

Before going to the trip, it was very easy to organize everything with them beacuse they answer all our doubts very fast.
During the trip we have two guides, Joshua and Moses. Both of them were amazing and make our experience unforgettable. Also the staff in the accommodations were really helpful and attentive.
We highly recommend Jocky because they make our trip amazing.
Thank you Moses and Joshua for everything!

Francis is the number one! He has a great attitude and went above and beyond to show us all the animals. He was also very helpful to all the other guides. I’d definitely choose him again for other safaris. Yo!

Excellent value for the safari provided
5/5

Value for money was excellent, we saw all of the big 5 and the lodging provided were good. For the price paid (budget safari), the food was alright even if it was really similar for the 7 days of the safari. Our guide Kikitu was really knowledgeable and provided an excellent service.
The only negative thing was Hell's gate national Park which we was presented as being able to freely roam around the park with many interesting attractions. In reality, we had to pay extra(30 usd per person) for a local guide to see the canyons in which we walked only 15 minutes and cycle to and back from the canyon. We had hoped to go the hot springs but couldn't according to the guide for lack of time.

In recap, for the price paid, we were extremely satisfied with the safari in general and would recommend Jocky Tours to our friends and family.

absolutely incredible
5/5

Our safari experience was absolutely incredible! Everything was perfectly organized, and the landscapes and wildlife sightings were unforgettable. The real highlight was our guide, Evans — he was extremely knowledgeable, professional, and passionate about the wildlife and the environment. Thanks to Evans, we learned so much and felt truly connected to the places we visited.
I highly recommend this safari experience to anyone looking for an authentic and well-guided adventure!
