Unforgettable & amazing experience!!
I had an incredible experience with Jocky Tours and Safaris. Our guide, Peter Kapino, was fantastic! A true gem you’ll be lucky to get! Knowledgeable, funny, patient, brilliant driving skills and made sure we got all the perfect timely shots. Luckily we got to see the big five! Moses who translated for another couple was also great, always ready to help and answer questions.
My reservation agent Maureen was super helpful, very responsive and always answered any queries I had.
We stayed at Lendacha Camp, which was nice. The food was great, and the staff were lovely. This is a was a once in a lifetime experience and totally worth the value for money. Highly recommend this tour company.

Great tour, as advertised
There is a lot of competition for safari tours to Maasai Mara. I was happy with Jocky Tours and our guides Peter Kapilo and Moses. The hotel pick-up and everything else was on time, and we had a great time on safari.

Perfect safari if you have limited time in Kenya
Had the best experience with Jocky Tours on a 3 day Masai Mara safari. It included pick up from my hotel in Nairobi, all transfers, accommodation, all meals and park entry fees - I didn't have to worry about anything.
Peter Kapino was a great driver, showing us the sights of the park and ensuring we saw as much as we could during the game drives. We managed to see the Big 5, including the elusive leopard that hadn't been seen in over a month!
The accommodation exceeded my expectations - affordable yet comfortable, and the meals were substantial and varied.
The company was very quick to respond to my requests via email, and booking direct with them was a smooth process.
Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed this tour and it was the perfect way to fit in a safari with my limited time in Kenya.

My tour operator was great and a once in a lifetime experience!
Peter Kapino was my driver and he was fantastic!! He picked us up on time each day and was very thorough with the plan for each day. He was very knowledgeable about the animals and at no time did I feel unsafe. I highly recommend jocky and requesting him as your personal guide.

Richie was a wonderful, kind and professional tour operator.
From start to finish, I was really surprised from how the tour is managed. Everything was on point, on time I do not say this lightly, I highly recommend Jocky Tours and Safaris.
I'd gladly contact them again if I ever come back and I will for sure, because the experience was out of this world.
Also, we had some of the best guides that I've ever encountered.. Richie, you were the man!

Extremely competent
Incredible, once-in-a-lifetime tour. Kush was extremely knowledgeable and super friendly and kept us entertained throughout (jokes were nonstop lol). He had a knack for finding the rarely spotted animals - big cats! - faster and better than any other car/ tour operator so we got exclusivity and quietness and breathtaking shots. Very “star student” energy hahah. The tour was so mindblowing, felt sacred at times tbh, and left us wide-eyed at many different points. Safety was always paramount, even when we got super close to lions or leopards, and it always felt secure. Kush found the best times and best vantage points and we just observed in reverence. Highly recommend, absolutely loved the experience, thank you.

Very organised, everything went smoothly
We had such a great experience with Jocky tours. The communication was really good since day 1, they came to pick us up at the hotel and also kept our extra luggage while we were on the safari what was really appreciated.
Our first guide Joseph was really professional and respectful to the wellbeing of the animals in the Masai Mara park. He could share loads of knowledges about them and gave us such a great experience (we could see the big 5 and even more ! ).
We then had another guide for day 3 and 4, Francis Maina who was also very nice and gave us a close experience with the animals (we will never forget our lunch in the middle of the zebras !)
Just thank you for everything, we will always have a good memories from the beginning of our honeymoon !

Adventure with David (Jocky Tours)
We recently completed an unforgettable 7-day safari in Kenya, organized by Jocky Tours, and it exceeded all our expectations. From start to finish, everything was well-planned, smooth, and truly memorable.
A special thanks goes to *David*, our guide and driver, who made this journey exceptional. His deep knowledge of animal behavior, the ecosystem, and the various parks we visited added so much depth to the experience. We were fortunate to see *all of the Big Five*, along with countless other incredible wildlife moments, thanks to his keen eye and tracking skills.
David impressed us every single day with his *professionalism, patience, and deep respect for the wildlife*. He always made sure we approached animals safely and without disturbing them, which we greatly appreciated. Beyond that, he ensured we were always *comfortable, well-fed, and well-informed*, turning the long journey into an enjoyable and relaxed adventure.
We wholeheartedly recommend *Jocky Tours* to anyone considering a safari in Kenya—and if you can, *request David*. You'll be in the best hands!

An incredible safari experience!
We had a fantastic time in the Masai Mara and want to give a special shout-out to our driver, Jimmy. He was always courteous, and dealt with any small issues that arose immediately and without a fuss. He shared his extensive knowledge of the wildlife and nature with us, and we felt safe and comfortable with him the entire time.
Regarding the accommodations, our first tented camp was okay. The second one, a hotel, was absolutely amazing and we loved our stay there.
We were lucky enough to see all of the Big 5 and the wildlife sightings were simply unforgettable. For future tours, we have one small suggestion: visiting the Maasai village on the evening of arrival. This would save guests the rather high park fees for one extra day in the Masai Mara National Park.
All in all, this was a wonderful and highly recommendable experience that we will never forget.

the good experience
Francis was our tour leader, very experienced and friendly. He chose the best time and the best place. And because of his connection with the local guides, he chose the most pristine places for the safari
He drove with excitement and precision and had the best suggestions.
