An Unforgettable Safari with an Exceptional Guide
We went on a seven-day safari with Jocky Tours & Safaris, and throughout the entire trip we were accompanied by the excellent guide, Francis. We had seen recommendations for the company on various websites, and everything we read turned out to be absolutely true.
From the very beginning of our communication with the company, we received accurate information, quick responses, and clear explanations. Their reliability and kindness were evident from the initial planning stages and throughout the entire trip.
Francis was with us throughout the safari, drove the jeep, and explained everything to us. We traveled as a family with three children, and Francis was constantly attentive to every one of us. My daughter says that Francis is amazing at spotting animals, explaining about them and about the Maasai tribe, and in general, he was able to answer every question we had.
Francis is extremely kind, pleasant, and considerate. It is clear that he has friends everywhere, and he always went out of his way to take care of every request we had.
We highly recommend Francis and Jocky Tours & Safaris! They made our safari an unforgettable experience.

Absolutely perfect
We had two tours with Jocky Tours - one in Nairobi National Park and one in the Masai Mara. Both tour guides were absolutely brilliant, taking care of us, stopping whenever we asked. They were both very knowledgeable and discussed with us and our children the animals that we were seeing and giving us information about them.
We liked that Jocky Tours were able to transport us from one national park to another in well equipped vehicles - and were happy to stop when we needed to for bathroom breaks, or buy some shopping for our next stay.
Both drivers we had were well spoken and kind, and made our experience in Kenya absolutely wonderful. We highly recommend them - and when we return to Kenya again we will certainly book with them.

We had an absolutely amazing experience with Jockey Tours. From the moment we were picked up from the hotel, everything was taken care of. Our guide, Jimmy, was absolutely incredible. With his help, we saw every animal we wanted to see, including a leopard! He was very flexible and accommodating. Just overall an incredible, life changing experience thank to Jimmy and Jockey Tours!

Amazing safari with Alex
We had an amazing 7-day safari with Alex, visiting Masai Mara, Nakuru, Naivasha and Amboseli. He was extremely professional, kind and knowledgeable, always answering our questions and stopping whenever we wanted. Thanks to him, we saw all the Big Five, many of them incredibly close! We couldn't have asked for a better guide. Highly recommended!

Unforgettable 7-day safari in Kenya with Alex - the ultimate guide!
Our 7-day safari in Kenya was an absolute dream, and we owe it all to our incredible guide, Alex. Thanks to his amazing spotting skills and deep knowledge of the wild, we managed to see all the Big Five! Alex is a true professional and always punctual. He knew exactly where to take us at the right time, making every single day unique. If you are planning a safari in Kenya, do yourself a favor and ask for Alex. 5 stars are not enough!

Reliable, responsive, and perfect for first-time safari
We’re a group of 5 girls on our very first trip to Africa, and for some of us, our first safari ever. We were nervous and had no idea who to choose, so we researched and compared the operators with the most reviews. Jocky stood out — and the reviews turned out to be completely true. They were super responsive, responsible, and reliable throughout.
We traveled during peak season, so prices were high and accommodation was tight. There was a small hiccup — the quote we’d been given was no longer available when we went to confirm. But David and his team found us a happy solution, and in the end we all agreed the whole experience was worth the money.
Safety was our biggest concern as an all-girl group, and we felt completely safe and cared for the entire time. We had a private group, which made everything more comfortable. David arranged an amazing guide for us — Michael, who has over two decades of safari experience. It shows. He knows everyone, which means he knows where the animals are, the best spots, and how to catch the interesting sightings. His driving was impressive too — bumpy at times, but the “African massage” was never too rough!
Our jeep was a Land Cruiser with a roof that opens, so we could see clearly and without eating too much dust. Michael struck a perfect balance between sharing his knowledge and letting us simply enjoy nature. He answered all our questions patiently, and you could really feel his love for the land and his animal friends. He always worked to get us a clear view while minimizing disturbance to the wildlife.
Over 3 days and 2 nights, we saw so much: zebras, giraffes, elephants, wildebeest, warthogs, and many kinds of antelope, plus sleeping lions, a cheetah, and several other cats. We didn’t catch the wildebeest crossing the river, but we did see them lined up across the savanna — an unforgettable scene, especially at sunset.
We stayed at Enkorok Mara Camp — a wonderful place. We were put in the new building, in a family room connecting two rooms with a shared common area. Hot showers, great food. We loved it.
Two honest tips: peak season means lots of animals, but also lots of jeeps, so expect crowds around the sightings. And be ready — it gets very dusty!
We couldn’t have asked for a better first safari. Thank you, David and Michael!

An Amazing Safari Experience with John Hagiah，John Hagiah made our four-day safari unforgettable wit
We had an amazing four-day safari with Jocky Tours and Safaris, and our guide and driver, John Hagiah, was excellent. He was very friendly, professional, patient and knowledgeable about the wildlife. He always did his best to find animals for us, and we were lucky to see so many amazing animals, including lions, cheetahs, elephants, giraffes, wildebeest and many others. He was also a very careful and experienced driver, which made us feel safe and comfortable throughout the trip. Communication was easy, and he was always willing to answer our questions and explain the animals and their behavior. The safari was well organized and definitely worth the money. We highly recommend Jocky Tours and Safaris, especially John, and would happily travel with them again!
