Friendly, fiendishly fun and fast!
If I have to boil down the most amazing week on safari into a few words I would have to start with the most important - KIKITU! If you're looking for a tour guide - you want Kikitu, and if you want Kikitu, you also want to go with Jocky Tours. He's hugely entertaining and seems to know everyone you need to know in the parks to find the best photo opportunities (or even moments of silence to soak up the breathtaking environment). We found Kikitu's lectures on each animal very engaging and fascinating. He will be dearly missed by our small safari crew of 4!
Aside from this we were very impressed with the Jocky Tours experience more widely. It is extremely reasonably priced (perhaps the best we could find), with all the full board accomodation you'd expect (delicious buffet food and comfortable safari 'glamping'). Communications via whatsapp before the trip were clear and transparent.
We saw everything - the big 5, across Maasi Mara, Lake Nakuru and Amboselli (even catching plenty of pictures of the marvellous Kilimanjaro) no doubt due to Kikitu's standing as the King of the Maasai Mara (;))
We left our tour totally satisfied we'd done the safari just right! Without burning a hole in our pockets. Choose Jocky Tours!

Amazing experience all round!
I booked the 4-day camping safari to Masai Mara and Lake Nakuru. This was my first safari experience and it definitely lived up to my expectations! Jimmy, our guide, was exceptional right from the start, always friendly and smiling and we felt very safe with him there to guide us throughout the whole trip. He often went the extra mile for us to be able to do everything we wanted and see as many different animals as possible, including a very rare leopard which was a wonderful moment! His exceptional knowledge of the Masai Mara was clear to see and huge thanks to him for giving us an incredible experience. The tour overall was very well-organised and there was plenty of time to see wildlife, the vehicle was well-equipped with everything we needed and the guide was fantastic! Would definitely recommend!

Kenya's best and award-winning tour guide; James. We had an excellent experience thanks to him.
Everything was great. James is a very good tour guide. We saw everything there was to see. We even saw the black rhino, which had not been seen for 5 years. James never turned down our requests. Everything was as we wanted and it was perfect.

Great safari to Masai Mara with excellent guide and driver.
We had a great 3-days trip to Masai Mara. We started our group safari from Nairobi and everything worked out perfectly. We had a great guide and driver (David) who had lots of knowledge of wildlife, very good driving skills and the communication was very good too. I felt very safe the entire time. We saw so many animals (lions, zebras, rhinos, giraffes, cheetahs, hippos, .....) on our trip and had an excellent time. Our accommodation was simple but clean and offered everything we needed like hot water, electricity in the evenings, safety guards, and mosquito nets. Also, the food was delicious. I fully recommend the Safari for other travelers who are on a lower budget but want to experience the wildlife and nature of Masai Mara. Don't expect a fancy lodge or big cars but a simple, clean, and calm accommodation and an exciting and safe time in the national park.

Jocky Tours is a wonderful tour operator- very efficient and true to their word.
I had the most amazing safari to Masai Mara through Jocky tours. For starters, booking with the company was an easy experience, and they were extremely quick to reply to any question I had. The actual safari itself was wonderful. Our guide, Khalifa, did such an amazing job. It was impressive how knowledgable he was about the park and the animals. He truly made the whole experience unforgettable.

David was good..he took good care of the entire group
The tour was good it was excellent we got to see all the animals..
Nicely organized , beautiful experience that we will remember forever
3 days 2 nights safari to Masai Mara was organized really well. Accommodation was fine, feeling the nature close to us. Tents were comfortable and the kitchen was tasty. Most importantly however, we had a really great guide/driver. If you go to safari with Jocky tours, ask for Kikitu. During his introduction he told us that he could handle 99.9% of our problems. That’s his attitude. We felt safe with him as a driver, got the help with the things we asked for. During the safari he was THE BEST. He was very proactive while searching for animals, making use of the radio all the time. Thanks to him we saw lots and lots of them. In the meantime he was telling us all kinds of interesting facts about the animals and the park itself. We couldn’t ask for a better guide.
