Albert was attentive of our excitement and did his best to make sure we got the best views!
Thank you very much to Albert and Jocky Tours for making this a trip of our lifetime! We loved our 6 day tour, it was informative, inspiring and well organised. We were picked up from the airport and dropped off back at our hotel at the end of the trip. We were well taken care off my Albert and Jocky would highly recommend everyone to book with them!

Amazing Safari
Had an amazing 7-day safari with Papa John covering Masai Mara, Nakuru, Naivasha, and Amboseli. He was an excellent driver and guide—professional, patient, knowledgeable, and always made sure we were comfortable and safe. His knowledge of wildlife and ability to spot and position us for great sightings made the safari even more special. Highly recommend Papa John for an unforgettable Kenya safari!

We had a fantastic time on the tour
We had a fantastic time on the tour and came away with some unforgettable memories. A big part of what made the experience so special was our guide, David Mnyama. His knowledge of the reserves was impressive, and he seemed to know exactly where to go and where to look.
We were able to see everything we had hoped for and got some amazing photos, including some incredible close-up sightings. It was clear that David’s experience and knowledge made a real difference throughout the trip.

Professional, dedicated, knowledgeable.
The tour was amazing. I don’t think it would have been the same without the knowledge and skill of our guide, David Mnyama. He knows every nook and cranny of the natural reserves that we visited. We managed to see everything in our list and took incredible photos in close quarters. I’d highly recommend Jocky Tours.

Trip of a lifetime
We did a 7-day safari covering Samburu, Nakuru, and the Masai Mara, and John was our guide throughout the trip. He gave us an exceptional experience that we will remember for a lifetime.
We saw several animals right after entering Samburu, and John was incredibly patient and always willing to go the extra mile to make sure we had the best possible experience. This was our first safari, and we saw an incredible variety of wildlife in Samburu. Having John as our guide meant that we are now completely hooked on safaris for life!
Next, we visited Nakuru, which was a completely different experience. Once again, John knew precisely where to go to find the best animal sightings. He was extremely knowledgeable about the park and its wildlife, and it was clear that he knew the terrain very well.
Finally, we arrived in the Masai Mara, where we spent three nights and went on several very long safari drives. John delivered again, and we were fortunate enough to witness a migration crossing. We also discovered a few lions ourselves, which was fantastic!
John seemed to know all the other guides, understood the terrain extremely well, and was constantly listening to the radio for leads on interesting sightings. He always seemed to know where to go next to find something memorable. He never rushed us and never thought twice about driving long distances if it meant getting us to a great sighting.
Beyond wildlife, John was also very knowledgeable and passionate about the local culture and traditions. Hours of driving went by effortlessly as we chatted about all sorts of topics. He was not just a great guide, but also wonderful company throughout the seven days.
All in all, this was our first safari experience, and it was an intense and unforgettable one. We are now hooked for life and have developed a completely new appreciation for Kenya, its wildlife, people, and culture.
The central character in this story was John, who made an already incredible experience so much better. We feel very lucky to have had him as our guide.
For Samburu and Nakuru, we stayed at Sopa Lodges, which were exceptional experiences as well.
Jocky Tours is also a great company. Moses was our contact throughout the booking process, and he was extremely responsive and helpful. He provided quick and transparent information, replied promptly to all our emails, and patiently answered all of our questions. We felt well informed throughout the planning process.
They also gave us the best rates, and the itinerary and driver they provided were very good as well. The only small issue was that we were asked to pay an additional 5% to cover card fees, which we had not been told about in advance.
However, this did not take away from the overall experience, and we would highly recommend Jocky Tours. We would happily give them five stars.
Reliable, well-organized and responsive, with smooth coordination and a great overall experience.
Jockey Tours & Travels was a reliable and well-organized tour operator that made our trip smooth and stress-free, with timely coordination, a comfortable vehicle, a knowledgeable and professional driver-guide, and good attention to the overall itinerary. The team was responsive before and during the trip, and the arrangements were handled efficiently without unnecessary hassle. What stood out most was the consistency in service and the feeling that everything was being managed properly in the background, allowing us to simply enjoy the experience. Overall, Jockey offered a dependable, comfortable, and well-coordinated travel experience that I would happily recommend.
