A whole gem, amazing, kind, lovely, a whole vibe, he definitely needs a raise - an asset to the team
I had the pleasure of having David as my tour guide and this man was brilliant! He was keen for us all to experience seeing the wild life for the first time and genuinely you can tell he loves his job.
He was great at communicating and provided a history about each animal we saw - he’s so knowledgeable and passionate about his job, it shines through in his presentation when not only trying to find the animal but when we do see it too! It was my first safari and oh how I wish I could do it again - if I do come back, I’m asking for David because I felt like the service we received from him was 10/10 - I had the BEST experience.
In regards to the service, as a woman, I felt safe and did not feel uncomfortable at all, it was a great experience - David was so friendly and smiley and he deserves to be recognised- he is an asset to the team
Good affordable option
I recently took my 6- and 7-year-old daughters on a safari trip to the Maasai Mara. Initially, we had booked a shared safari vehicle, but during the drive to the Mara, I realized that a private vehicle would be a much better fit for our family. My kids loved moving around the vehicle and looking out from different sides to spot wildlife.
After reaching out, both the hotel and Jockey Travel were incredibly flexible and accommodated our last-minute request for a private safari van. That change made a huge difference and helped create a truly memorable experience for all three of us.
We were also fortunate to have two excellent drivers and guides. Papa John drove us to the Maasai Mara and led our first evening game drive, while Patrick guided us for the remaining two days. Both were knowledgeable, patient, and wonderful with the kids.
We booked the mid-range package and stayed at Mara Jambo. It was a great choice for families. The property had a swimming pool (a bit chilly in June, but the kids still enjoyed it), and the food was excellent. The live cooking stations for pasta, omelets, and pancakes were a big hit with the children. Plenty of vegetarian Indian food option as well.
Overall, I would highly recommend Jockey Travel to anyone looking for a stress-free safari experience. Their flexibility, organization, and quality of service helped make this a trip our family will never forget.
