Joseph made me feel very safe and welcome
Overall, it was a really great experience. Joseph was such a warm and fun person to travel with. He made every effort to show us as many animals as possible, and we could really feel that he knew what he was doing. We were a very curious group and asked a lot of questions — and he always took the time to explain everything to us. He was also a safe and skilled driver, which made us feel comfortable throughout the whole trip.
We saw so many amazing animals and got to witness some incredible moments — and honestly, it often felt like Joseph was one of those guides who really stood out. We sometimes arrived a bit earlier than others or stayed a little longer at the perfect spot, which made the experience extra special.
We chose the low-budget camping option, since we’re both students and travel on a smaller budget. But honestly, it didn’t feel low-budget at all! The tented camps had real beds, private bathrooms attached to the tents, hot showers, proper toilets, and mosquito nets. It was actually super cozy. In Masai Mara and Amboseli, we could even hear the sounds of the animals at night — monkeys screaming, hyenas laughing and the wind passing through the trees. That atmosphere was something truly unforgettable.
The only part we probably wouldn’t do again was the visit to the Masai Village. It was interesting to learn about their culture and we were welcomed warmly with dancing, but later it turned into more of a shopping situation. We were separated individually and encouraged to buy jewelry at quite high prices, and it simply felt uncomfortable. Of course, that has nothing to do with Joseph or Jocky Tours — the rest of the tour was amazing.
So, overall we’re super happy with the trip, and we would 100% recommend doing the safari with Joseph. It was an incredible experience and absolutely worth it!

Papa Jones is Best driver, lots of knowledge, provides the best views
It was a real pleasure to participate in the safari to the Maasai Mara and Lake Nakuru. The atmosphere was fantastic and there were plenty of attractions at every turn. It was perfectly planned, so we didn't have to worry about a thing. We started to regret not going to Amboselli. We'll definitely do it again next time with Jocky Tours and Papa Jones.

Excellent
Our experience with Jocky Tours was excellent. From the moment we booked our safari with Maureen and Minneh to the safari itself, everything was handled professionally and, most importantly, without any surprises. We made the booking via WhatsApp. It was a private six-day safari for three people, starting from Nairobi and covering Masai Mara, Nakuru, and Amboseli.
The hotels were top-notch and matched exactly what had been agreed upon with the agency. The vehicle was well maintained and reliable. And our driver, Andrew, was outstanding. He made us feel safe from start to finish, took into account all our requests, and was patient throughout.
During the safaris, Andrew helped us identify animals and showed great insight and intelligence in spotting interesting situations and wildlife. He followed the itinerary perfectly. We especially thank him for his dedication, punctuality, and kindness.
We highly recommend this experience in every respect.

The Safari of Safaris
Francis was our tour guide. He was an amazing representative of Jocky Tours and Kenya! We did the 4 Days Masai Mara Only tour. We were picked up and needed some snacks before the Masai Mara. Francis brought us to a market and then we made our way to the park. The sunset was one of the most memorable. His knowledge of the community, the park, and geography made him so valuable. Without even words, Francis knew the best views to allow us to see everything! He was the first guide to locate so many large animals and we got to see the Big Five! I’d recommend Francis to friends and family so they could have an unforgettable experience.

They were very accommodating, helpful, and punctual
We had the most incredible experience with Jocky Tours mostly because of Francis our guide. He was so motivated to make sure we had the most amazing experience and that we did!! He was so punctual and accommodating. I now consider him a friend for life. He was absolutely amazing. He’s full of knowledge having been doing this 15 years. We will miss him and keep these memories forever!
