A terrific tour organisation where you will get value for money
5/5

We had A wonderful tour of 6 days Thanks to papa John. We went to three Parcs and we saw many animals Thanks to the attention of papa John; we saw many Eliphants including little ones, A male Lion (Twice) with several females, zebra’s, A lot of Gnoes, monkeys and many others. Papa John lead us on the right time to the right place. He could tell us A lot about the way of living of these animals. Papa John also Made us see the Kilimanjaro which was A magnificant view. Travelling from parc to parc Papa John drove us safe (!) through the traffic. For me papa John Made our tour A succes because he works outoff his hart. So, if you think about A tour in Kenia, ask for papa John and you will get A lot of value for the price you have to pay.
A terrific organisation !

Fantastic safari with papa John
5/5

We just came back from an unforgettable 6-day safari across three parks, and it was one of the best trips we’ve ever done. Each park had something different to offer, and we had so many wow-moments seeing animals in their natural habitat.

Our guide, Papa John, was friendly and really knew what he was doing. He made us feel safe and welcome and he shared lots of fun facts without ever overloading us. Sometimes we just sat quietly and enjoyed the surroundings. He had a great sense of when to talk and when to let nature speak.

The lodges were all nice and well located.

I’d absolutely recommend this safari! We felt in good hands the whole way and it was a mindblowing experience.

Jocky Tours was fantastic—well-organized, great value, and Freddy was an amazing driver/guide who he
5/5

We did the 5-Day Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru, Navaisha itinerary. In addition to seeing the Big 5, and the Ugly 5, we Witnessed the migration of the wildebeest in Masai Mara, which was extraordinary. We covered a lot of ground in a short amount of time. Next time we would add a few days to spend more time in each park. The food was good overall, and the accommodations were a good value with the bed at the Sarova hotel being the most comfortable of the 3. Freddy, our driver/guide was amazing, and we would request him again!

Good safari
5/5

What really made it special was Papa John, our guide and driver. He didn’t just tell us about the animals, he helped us get in the right spots for great views and amazing photos. He was always thinking one step ahead, spotting animals before we did and making sure we didn’t miss anything.

The places we stayed were peaceful and comfortable, and the whole trip felt well-organized and relaxed.

If you’re looking for a real safari adventure, this is the one and Papa John makes it even better.

Best guide, amazing safari.
5/5

I learned a lot and saw many animals thanks to my trip with my best guide Joshua. The seven-day journey was long, but it consists of alpha. Guides and vehicles were the best, but the only problem is the travel agency's choice of accommodation. Most of the accommodations did not have hot water or had issues with the bathroom.

Best guide joshua, who always showed so many animals kindly and safely throughout the tour!
5/5

It was the best trip thanks to Joshua. I saw all the big five animals, elephant buffalo, rhino, leopard, and lion, and I could see the animals crossing the river. I also saw baby elephants and baby hima, and it was such a great experience. However, it was a bit difficult to adapt to the tent accommodation where I first stayed. However, the staff were kind.

An Unforgettable Safari Experience in Maasai Mara!
5/5

I had an absolutely amazing experience with Jocky Tours & Safaris on my recent trip to Maasai Mara. Everything was organized perfectly from start to finish, and the entire safari exceeded my expectations.

Special thanks to our incredible driver and guide, James Gichina. He was not only professional and knowledgeable, but also incredibly kind, humorous, and attentive throughout the tour. He knew exactly where to go to find the animals and made sure we had the best viewing angles possible. Thanks to his skillful driving, we were able to get amazingly close to lions, elephants, and even a cheetahs! He made the experience feel safe, exciting, and unforgettable.

The game drives were well-paced, and James always made sure we had enough time to enjoy the wildlife without ever feeling rushed. His deep knowledge about the animals and the Maasai Mara ecosystem added great value to the trip.

I highly recommend Jocky Tours & Safaris to anyone looking for a memorable and well-organized safari experience in Kenya. And if you get James as your driver, consider yourself lucky — he truly made this trip unforgettable.

Five stars without hesitation!

Take action, I recommend my tour guide: Daniel (JockyTour)
5/5

Growing up, I could only discover the appearance of animals from the Discovery Channel on TV, so coming to Africa to see them has always been one of my dreams. I was lucky to meet my guide, Daniel (JockyTour), who took me to see the Big Five and got me home safely. I can tell you all about my questions at the time. First, there was clean bottled water, and second, there was a place to charge your phone/camera so you could take pictures. I ignored the weather, thinking it would only be hot there, but it can actually be cold too. If you are planning a trip, I recommend my guide, Daniel, to everyone.
