Amazing experience and more than safari, it was about all Kenya is indeed
5/5

It was really great experience! We were on 6 days safari, visiting Masai Mara, Nakuru and Amboseli.

For start, I need to say that our driver/guide Papa Jones was amazing! He was putting so much effort in this safari, showed us great things, drive great and, of course, helped us and made this trip unforgettable. We saw all animals, big 5 and many many others :)

We were on the budget, but accommodation was wonderful. I really loved camp in Masai Mara abd Amboseli. In Nakuru we were sleeping in hotel, honestly, camping would be better but I guess it was not possible in that area. Food, lovely everywhere.

Be prepared for long long drive between national parks, but that is great opportunity to see Kenya, nature, small places, cities, people, life, so one more experience:)

Also, it’s really important to do a little research before choosing right safari for you. I did that and I had real expectations.

I don’t know what to say more, but this was lifetime experience and I can recommend Jocky 👌🏼

The staff at Safari Bookings are not only friendly but also highly skilled. Pricing is fair and transparent, and their efficiency is a hallmark of their service,"

Amazing
5/5

Had a very great time with unforgettable moments with Joky Tours in Masai Mara and Lake Nakoro parks, everything was soft and very well arranged. Our tour guide peter was very friendly, professional, smart and full of information about every single and every animal in the parks.
Thank you Joky tours and Peter kapino for the amazing days.

In relation of the tour planning and arrangement by the Jockey as per our requirement. Although card payment required extra amount, it worth ful to book with Jockey to arrange good budget Kenya tour.

Brilliant Experience
5/5

Great first safari experience! Our guide David did an outstanding job, he was very organised and made sure everything ran smoothly, and shared his knowledge on the culture, animals and areas. He was very friendly which made the entire week enjoyable. We saw many different animals, and got opportunities to take some great photos from good vantage points due to David’s excellent driving.

One negative was that one of the accommodations (tented camp) only had electricity in the room in the evenings. This made it difficult to get ready in early morning in near darkness. It wasn’t a huge problem for us, but it could be a bigger problem for others. Some people were given better rooms with electricity 24/7 by what seemed like chance, as we were never presented with any option to pay for better room etc. Aside from that, the accommodations were reasonably nice and all provided great food!

Overall we had a great time and would recommend this to anyone, especially if David is your guide!

We highly recommend this safari organizer. And if you get Brian as your guide, you're doubly lucky!
5/5

This was our first Safari experience.
I'd like to point out right away that the organizers not only answered all of our questions quickly and clearly by email, but also went out of their way to allow us to pay in cash on site (since our cards weren't working), which was a huge plus.

All agreements were kept and we were picked up at the appointed time.

I'd especially like to commend our guide, Brian. He was very attentive and listened to our requests. I can say for sure that he made our trip as comfortable as possible. Considering our limited English, he used a translator to provide us with information about interesting places and told us about the animals. Brian and I always found common ground and laughed.) We saw every animal in the Kenyan game reserve. At some point, I got the impression that Brian knew absolutely everyone around him, because whenever we met people anywhere, they smiled at him and started talking.

The food was simple and delicious, without any unnecessary exoticism. We really enjoyed the camp in Masai Mara; it had a unique atmosphere.

It was a wonderful experience and we highly recommend this operator and guide Brian Ondigo!

We had Steven as guide/driver. I can highly recommend him as he was a good driver, excellent guide and well informed about the animals in the park. He was always on time and flexible with the wishes of our group. He made the whole trip an amazing experience.

True to their promises and often exceeding them!
5/5

I booked the tour via safari booking and then on to Jocky tours! Communication was easy and quick (I only booked 2 weeks in advance).

Instructions were clear and airport pick-up/hotel drop off worked well. No complaints.

The 4d/3n Mara-Nakuru tour with our guide (Stanley) was amazing, saw the best wildlife (Cheeta chase and kill, need I say more..) and had informing and funny talks with our guide.

The stays and food were a bit basic and repetitive, but overall fine and for a 'budget' tour to be expected.

All in all, very happy to recommend this tour and these people! Cheers
