Dickson was very enthusiastic, informative, and eager to discuss and answer every question we asked.
This safari was amazing and definitely a very good price for the welcoming people, amazing tour guide (dickson), and informative, transformational experience. It was very reliable, and I always felt safe, but still like I was getting a very up close experience. This was an amazing safari and I would definitely use Dickson and this company again!

An Unforgettable Safari – Thanks to the Incredible Guide John
Our safari with Jocky Tours and Safaris was one of — if not the — most memorable experiences of my life. And the biggest reason for that was our absolutely amazing guide, John.
From the very first moment, you could tell that John truly loves what he does. His passion, dedication, and energy were unmatched. With him, we genuinely felt that he wanted to make the absolute most out of every single opportunity. He wasn’t just doing his job — he was fully committed to giving us the best possible experience every single day.
Thanks to John’s incredible knowledge, sharp instincts, and determination, we witnessed things we will never forget. We saw a live lion hunt for pumbas, watched a leopard drag its freshly hunted gazelle up a tree and eat it, and encountered so many incredible animals — hippos, cheetahs, giraffes, rhinos, and many more. These weren’t just sightings; they were once-in-a-lifetime moments.
John’s experience and deep understanding of wildlife made all the difference. He always positioned us perfectly, explained everything in detail, and made sure we didn’t miss a thing. You could truly feel how passionate he is about nature and wildlife — and that passion made the whole safari even more special.
On top of that, the value for money was unbelievable. Rarely have I experienced a situation where I felt like I not only got what I paid for — but significantly more. This was honestly 200% bang for your buck.
I would recommend Jocky Tours and Safaris to absolutely everyone. And if you can, ask for John — he will turn your safari into an unforgettable life experience.

Very well prepared and they’re doing a great job.
Our safari tour was truly the most incredible experience I have ever had in my life. From the very first moment, everything was perfectly organized, and it exceeded all my expectations.
A huge thank you to our tour guide, John. He gave his absolute best every single day to make sure we had the time of our lives. Thanks to his dedication, knowledge, and passion, we were able to see so many amazing animals. He always knew exactly where to go and made sure we didn’t miss anything. It honestly felt like a dream come true.
What made the experience even more special was how much John shared with us about the local culture. He explained everything in such an interesting and engaging way. Whenever we had questions, he always gave us clear, detailed, and thoughtful answers. You could truly feel how much he loves what he does.
This safari was not just a trip — it was a once-in-a-lifetime experience that I will never forget. If you are thinking about booking a safari, I highly recommend it — and if possible, ask for John. He will make sure it becomes the best experience of your life too!

This tour was absolutely stunning! 1000/10 please take your time and read the review!
Our safari experience was absolutely unforgettable! Truly beyond anything we could have hoped for. From start to finish, everything was perfectly organized, and we saw everything we came to see and more. Every game drive felt like a new adventure, and each day brought incredible moments we will remember forever.
What made this experience especially outstanding, however, was our guide, John Mwangi. We honestly cannot praise him enough. John went above and beyond in every possible way to make this safari special for us. His knowledge of the wildlife, nature, and the area was incredible, and his passion for what he does shines through in every moment. He always seemed to know exactly where to go and somehow managed to find amazing sightings time after time.
More than that, John genuinely cared about our experience. He was attentive, patient, and always doing everything in his power to make sure we were comfortable, excited, and having the best possible time. His enthusiasm was contagious!
We often joked during the trip: “John for president!” — and honestly, we meant it. His professionalism, kindness, and dedication set the standard for what a tour guide should be.
If you are lucky enough to have John Mwangi as your guide, you are guaranteed an extraordinary safari. We are incredibly grateful for this experience and would recommend this tour without hesitation to anyone looking for something truly special.

Truly knowledgeable, patient and amazing 🤩
Our tour guide from Jocky tours, Albert, was absolutely outstanding—diligent, patient, and incredibly knowledgeable about the Kenyan safari regions. A true professional.
He shared fascinating insights about the wildlife and landscapes that made every moment meaningful.
No question was too small, and he handled everything with calm professionalism.
Most importantly, he made the entire experience fun, engaging, and truly unforgettable!

Amazing experience, incredible animals, great guide
I booked a 3 day Masai Mara lodge tour with Jocky as a solo traveller looking for a share tour. The booking and deposit process was easy and they were very responsive.
The tour itself was fantastic with Brian as our guide extraordinaire. Brian was friendly, accommodating and most of all he helped us get the most out of our trip by getting to see so many great animals (including lions eating, lion cubs, cheetah cubs and adults, a leopard, elephants, giraffes and many more). His connections (sharing intel on where animals were) and driving ability made sure we had the best experience and the best photos to capture those memories.
A great experience with Brian via Jocky Tours.
An unforgettable experience with the best tour guide
We came to this trip with no expectations, and it completely blew us away and for the price we paid we have received much more. Everything was very well organised by the company, the daily tours were full of adventures, and the national parks were something I’ve never seen before. I also have to highlight that our tour guide My John Mwangi made this experience unforgettable with his knowledge about nature, animals and culture, but also his amazing and responsible personality. He made sure we see all animals up close and we have the best view everywhere possible. We are very grateful and lucky to spend 5 days with him. 100% recommended!

A Dream Journey in East Africa
We just completed an incredible 7-day safari journey through Masai Mara, Nakuru, Naivasha, Hell’s Gate, and Amboseli. Our guide, David Mukami, was absolutely phenomenal. His driving skills are top-notch, and he was constantly communicating via radio to ensure we didn't miss a single moment of the action.
Thanks to David Mukami’s expertise and sharp eyes, we saw an astounding variety of wildlife, including Thomson's Gazelle, Topi, Impala, Waterbuck, Wildebeest, Zebra, Giraffe, Hippo, Buffalo, Rhino, and Elephant. The birdlife was equally impressive, from the elegant Crested Crane and Secretary Bird to Guineafowl, Egyptian Geese, and Flamingos. We were also lucky enough to spot the big predators and elusive cats: Serval, Leopard, Jackal, Hyena, Lion, and Cheetah.
Seeing these animals in their natural habitat is a completely different level of "wow" compared to watching them on TV—the scale and raw beauty are simply overwhelming. This was truly an unforgettable East African adventure.

Good budget tour.
Nice budget tour with good supportive guides. During the whole trip, we stayed a few days at camp site, but the quality of the camp was good enough.

Our Tour operator was very knowledgeable and great
Took a 3 day Safari with Jokey Tours to Maasai Mara. Our guide Ali was great. He was very friendly and knowledgeable in the park. We were fortunate enough to see all the animals with his precision and expertise. We even got to see the rare leopard. I would highly recommend Ali and Jokey for your safari.
