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!

Unforgettable Safari Experience with Jocky Tours and Our Amazing Driver Raheem
I am deeply grateful to our driver, Raheem, for his professionalism, safe driving, and in-depth knowledge of the wildlife. Thanks to his keen eye and expertise, we were able to witness Kenya’s breathtaking animal kingdom in its full glory — from multiple sightings of cheetahs and lions to all members of the famous Big Five. Every moment felt magical and exceeded our expectations. This safari has truly become one of the most beautiful and memorable experiences of my life. I wholeheartedly recommend Jocky Tours to anyone looking for an authentic, well-organized, and unforgettable adventure in Kenya.

The tour operator is experienced and responsible, and they took great care of all the travelers.
It was absolutely an unforgettable lifetime memories! We have collected all the BIG FIVE. My guide John, aka “John of the jungle” was the best. He took such a good care of all of us, and answer all my questions, from animals habits to Kenyan culture. He is friendly, humor, very easy to get along and also very handsome. Just loved his company.

Wonderful experience with the best driver/guide ever.
The tour was very well organised in terms of itinerary, accomodations and driver choice.
The value for money is good. The driver (Joseph/Maleyo) was excellent in terms of kindness, expertise, knowledge of reserves and animals, availability for extra requests, caring towards us and result oriented to make our experience the best in each visited place. He also speaks English very well, so it was very easy communicating with him.
As regards the communications and assistance from Agency before travelling it was quite difficult to get them understanding our requests and preferences. Above all with one of our accomodation: after 2 months since our reservation was confirmed, we found out accidentally that there was not availability anymore and we had to change our first accomodation option (tended camp instead of lodge).
Even though we had this inconvenience we still recommend the agency and above all the guide of Joseph/Maleyo. We recommend any future client only to follow up the agency constantly during the quote request and before the tour begins.
It was absolutely a wonderful experience!!!

Closer to nature than we ever imagined
We had an unforgettable 7-day safari tour covering Maasai Mara, Lake Nakuru, Lake Naivasha, and Amboseli. Our guide, Isaac, was incredibly kind, attentive, and truly made the trip special for us. He always went the extra mile to position the vehicle at the perfect spot so we could get the best view of the animals up close. Over the course of the safari, he became like family to us.
One of the most amazing things was how close the animals were — sometimes just a few meters away — and how often they crossed the road right in front of us. It was breathtaking to see them in their natural habitat at such close range.
The safari vehicle was comfortable and clean, making the long drives comfortable. Accommodation was mainly basic tented houses — of course, it’s not a 5-star hotel, but for a couple of nights it was perfectly fine and part of the adventure. In Hell’s Gate National Park, we highly recommend renting a bicycle — it lets you see a lot more in less time and get very close to the animals.
On the last day, we were lucky enough to see Mount Kilimanjaro — a magical ending to an amazing journey. Even 7 days felt too short — we wished we could have stayed longer! We’re so grateful to Isaac for his warmth, professionalism, and dedication. Highly recommended!
