James Gichina was an amazing guide! He knew all the hotspots and took great care of us!
5/5

This tour was absolutely fantastic! It blew our expectations out of the water! James Gichina was our tour operator and he was 10/10! If you manage to get him as your tour guide you've won the jackpot! He knew all the best spots and was incredibly knowledgeable, answering and and all our questions. No task was too big or too small and while it's not guaranteed to see all the animals James Gichina has a knack for showing up at the right places at the right time! Highlights include multiple elephant crossings, an elephant bull fight, two leopards, lions, buffalo, rhino, hippo, giraffes grazing within touching distance and so many more. The tour was organised great leaving us feeling safe and secure with each day planned out for us. As a notoriously picky eater I was concerned about meals. However the food was delicious and there was something for me at every meal!

Nice
4/5

The tour was an amazing experience with our tour guide Kikitu. He was explaining a lot and made an amazing week for us, always trying his best to make it possible to see a lot in the parks and giving information. Everything is arranged perfectly and we saw the big fives. Including an sensation which was the leopard in Amboseli, which was exciting and unusual and one of our highlights, next to the view of the Kilimanjaro. See you next time!

4/5

We had an amazing safari organized by Jocky Tours and our guide Kikitu was absolutely fantastic. During the safari, we saw a wide variety of wildlife including the Big Five and for the first time ever, we even spotted a leopard in Amboseli!
This safari isn't just about seeing animals; it also gives you the chance to experience Kenya in different ways, which makes the tour truly special.Our guide Kikitu made the entire experience complete. He was always there to share interesting information and create a fun atmosphere.I would recommend this safari to anyone who wants to visit Kenya it’s an unforgettable adventure!

This 3-days safari was and amazing experience, maybe the best I've had in my Kenyan holidays.
Kelvin was so the best driver we could ever have. He explained us a lot of things about the Animals we saw and about Kenyan life.
Hasante!

Close touch with nature
5/5

Jocky Tours gave us a great experience! We have visited several national parks (Masai Mara, Lake Naivasha, Lake Nakuru, Hell's Gate, Amboseli). Each was specific and each unforgetable. We were able to see a lot of animals in their natural environment, and the whole experience was even improved by our guide - Sir Charles - who was able to explain us behaviour of animals right when we were observing them. I will never forget how we found a lion, and Sir Charles could say just from how he walked, that there is another one around, and really, in a few minutes another lion appeared from bushes. Our safari was full of things like that. Observation with understanding, that you can't get from books or movies. Only from direct observation with commentary from a good guide. I also appreciate safe transfer between the parks. It is good to have reliable guide, that can drive safely in challenging traffic conditions. I admire the skill and appreciate. Thank you!

Perfect 7 days trip with Jocky, thank you for our guide:Hemfrid
5/5

We booked a 7-day, 6-page trip for a very good price.
- The reliable guide allowed us to see almost all the animals we wanted to see (cheetahs, leopards, lions, rhinos, etc.), and even explained the animals' preferences to us.
- The accommodations were also very good. One day, they assigned us the wrong tent, but the driver helped us negotiate a better room with the camp owner and was very attentive to our suggestions.
- We didn't ask for tips, but the driver was very responsible.

Absolutely unforgettable experience with John Walter from Jocky Tours!
5/5

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
From the moment our safari began, John’s passion, deep knowledge, and incredible spotting skills made every moment special. He knew exactly where to be and when, giving us front-row views of wildlife we could only dream of—lions on the hunt, elephants at sunrise, and even rare bird sightings we would’ve totally missed without him.

Beyond that, John was kind, funny, super professional, and made us feel safe and cared for the entire journey. He knew Amboseli and Masai Mara like the back of his hand, and always went the extra mile to make sure we had the best views, best photos, and best stories to tell.

If you’re planning a safari in Kenya, I can’t recommend John Walter enough—he truly made this a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Thank you, John & Jocky Tours! 🙌🦁🐘
