It was such an unforgettable experience.
We joined a 4-day safari tour and our driver, Francis, was amazing. He handled any issues really well and managed the time perfectly, so we were very satisfied.
But the hot air balloon experience was a huge disappointment. Even though we came as a pair, we were placed on completely opposite sides of the balloon. When we asked to adjust, we were told, “If you don’t want to ride, then don’t.” It left us feeling angry and really disappointed.
The hot air balloon itself is a great experience and I would still recommend it, but I hope the pilot and operator can improve their consideration and respect for guests.

Papa John for president
We had the 7 day tour, totally worth it, all 4 places were unique. Amboseli is definitely worth the extra days and exhausting roadtrip!
I totally recommend Jocky Tours for a budget but nonetheless qualitative service and experience! The schedule was executed as described, with two tiny issues:
1) the first accommodation in Masai Mara was below expectations
2) the last day returning to Nairobi from Amboseli felt a little bit "wasted" because of some non-scheduled transfer arrangements and a "rushed" and incomplete morning game drive
Everything else was perfect. Accommodation budget to mid, food always decent+, communications clear.
Special mention to our amazing driver guide Papa John! He is knowledgeable, very good and safe driver and always eager to help and make sure we have a good time! He even offered us a private extra safari game drive because we had missed the previous day because of filling sick!
Thank you Papa, thank you Jocky!

The most incredible time
Our tour guide James Gichina was absolutely phenomenal and super knowledgeable. He really knew all the tips and tricks to get us the best view of the animals and even though we did a short trip we saw SO much. I really can’t thank James enough for making our trip so fantastic.

Jocky Tours & Safaris provides excellent service and unforgettable experiences.
The safari tour with Raheem Mwema was truly memorable—he’s not only very knowledgeable about wildlife and nature, but also attentive, friendly, and patient, making the whole experience both educational and enjoyable. His passion for guiding and ability to spot animals made the tour unforgettable.

10 out of 10 experience with the best tour guide ever
Jockey tours Masai Mara tour is definitely worth the price that you pay for. Our tour guide, James Gichina tried his best to show us the diverse animals in the Masai Mara and the hotel that we stayed in was also impeccable. Definitely more than I expected. If you are planning a trip to Masai Mara, Jocky tours is the right choice :)

Worth it!
Overall, we were very satisfied with our experience. Our tour guide, James Gichina, was great. He always made sure we were having a good time. We did have some issues with the accommodation (the one we originally booked was overbooked), but we were upgraded, so in the end we were happy with it.
As for Jocky Tours’ communication, they always replied very quickly, although sometimes they only answered a few of my questions. It wasn’t a big problem, though, because I could just send another email and they would respond.
And one tip: don’t expect everything to be super organized in Kenya. This is Kenya. (Something I’ve learned during my two weeks in Nairobi & Masai Mara. Haha)

Fantastic experience
We had a great experience with Jocky Tours and our driver Alex. The communication worked very well and quickly and our wishes were met. We were 3 days in the Masai Mara, 1 day Lake Nakuru and 2 days in Amboseli. We saw the most animals in the Masai Mara. We also did a balloon safari in the Masai Mara which was also very nice due to the Great Migration. The distances between the parks are very long. You spend a lot of time in the car.

“It was a wonderful trip and an unforgettable experience. I especially appreciated that the hotels and tours were well arranged, so I had nothing to worry about. If I had to point out one thing, the shower in the tent on the first day had a metallic smell, so I hope that can be improved.
