Absolutely incredible!
The tour with Jocky was incredible. We did the 6 day tour of Masaai Mara, Lake Nakuru and Amboseli. We had the best guide in Dickson, who was friendly and knowledgeable. With Dickson we found all the big 5, and he made the tour so much fun. The accommodation was very basic but for 1000USD each we could not complain! The food was good, and the tour was consistent with their meals for us. The trip is about the animals and not where you sleep! Don’t hesitate to book! Amazing and will be a long life memory.

Unforgettable Safari with Jockey Tours – Huge Thanks to John Mwangi!
We had an incredible experience with Jockey Tours — from start to finish everything was perfectly organised and exceeded our expectations. Our guide, John Mwangi, was absolutely outstanding. He was friendly, professional, and unbelievably knowledgeable about the wildlife and parks.
John made sure we were always in the best possible spot for sightings — we saw lions, elephants, buffalo, giraffes, and even a leopard thanks to his sharp eye! He also had a great sense of humour and made the long drives enjoyable, sharing stories and insights about Kenya’s culture and nature.
The vehicle was comfortable and well-maintained, the lodges were excellent, and we always felt safe and well taken care of. It was clear that Jockey Tours really cares about giving guests the best possible experience.
If you’re considering a safari in Kenya, don’t hesitate to book with Jockey Tours — and request John Mwangi if you can! He truly made our trip unforgettable.

Wonderful experience
Excellent experience. Our guide, Wycliffe, was super attentive, kept us safe, and worked hard to ensure we had the best experience in the Masai Mara and throughout the trip. The Jambo Mara Lodge is also wonderful. Very comfortable, attentive staff, and great food. Everything was wonderful. My suggestion is to check the vehicle's seatbelts. Other than that, everything was great!

Beautifull trip with the best driver
When I saw all the positive reviews I thought it was unposssible for agency to have so many.
But after my trip I can highly recommend this agency and especially driver Stanley. We spend with Stanley 5 days.
Stanley wanted to show us all the animals on Safari. When other drivers stopped we ran to see cheetahs. We were always the first to see something intresting and we had planty of time to enjoy the views.
Stanley told us so many intresting facts about animals.
Thank you Stanley for your smile and for showing us beautiful animals. We had luck to have you us our driver.
If one day I return to Kenya I choose this agency and the best driver again :).

The experience has been fantastic; it has far exceeded our expectations.
Steven has been our tour guide; his knowledge of the animals, his experience, and his enthusiasm made our safari days truly spectacular. The hotels chosen by Jocky Tours were perfect (specially the Opa lodge in Naivasha), and we especially highlight the excellent service. In addition, the meals were very good with plenty of variety.

From start to finish the tour was excellent!
I am sure that we had the best driver in all of the Masai Mara, John Mwangi is his name, if you want to watch all the animals, make sure you are fir him by name! He really went out of his way to make sure we watch all the animals and as close as possible! Thank John, you helped me live a lifelong dream!

Excellent experience
I recently had an unforgettable safari experience in Kenya with Jocky Tours, and I want to start by expressing my deepest gratitude to our incredible tour guide, Sir Charles. In my opinion, he is absolutely the No.1 guide! Charles is not only an excellent driver but also a skilled tracker and "hunter" (in the best sense). He has an extraordinary ability to find the perfect spots for us to capture stunning photos of wildlife. Thanks to his professional expertise and keen instincts, we were able to witness some truly remarkable moments, including a lion hunting, spotting Simba, and even observing male and female ostriches switching shifts to guard their eggs.
One of the highlights of our trip was seeing the rare black rhino, which we were told is incredibly difficult to spot. This was such a special and memorable experience, and it wouldn’t have been possible without Charles’ expertise and dedication.
As for Jocky Tours, I must say their service is highly cost-effective and offers great value for money. The accommodations were well-chosen, and staying at Kibo Safari Camp for the last two nights was absolutely fantastic—it was the perfect way to end our trip.
That said, I do have one small recommendation for improvement. I would have appreciated receiving the driver’s contact information a few days prior to the safari. In our case, we only received Charles’ WhatsApp contact at 8 PM the night before our departure, which felt a bit last-minute. I had to call the company to request the information, and they shared it with me afterward. I hope the communication process can be more proactive in the future to make the experience even smoother.
In conclusion, this was a truly amazing safari experience, and I highly recommend Jocky Tours to anyone planning a trip to Kenya. And if you’re lucky enough to have Charles as your guide, you’re in for an exceptional adventure!

A week full of everything we wanted and more
We had the best week with Jocky Tours! We went to Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru and Amboseli, each was very different from each other and offered so many beautiful sights. Our guide Dickson found us the big 5 and was always telling us about the animals and able to answer any questions we had, he made the trip a fun and always made sure we were ok! We stayed in tented accommodation as part of our safari and although we were hesitant about this, it was absolutely fine and we were able to hear the elephants in the night and woke up to being able to see them just outside of our camp! This is one of the best trips I have been on and we would highly recommend!
