My tour to Masai Mara was unforgettable. Our guide, Jimmy was exceptional. We saw all of the big five and many more wonderful animals and birds. I highly recommend this tour company and guide.

We went on the 4 day Masai Mara / Nakuru safari and got dropped off in Naivasha. Andrew our tour operator was very knowledgeable and worked hard to make sure we all had a great time. We stayed in Enkorok camp and Buchara Zelione and both were great: clean, good food and great pools. Jocky tours were very communicative. I was worried about the weather as March is supposed to be a shoulder month but we had fantastic weather at start of month with no rain. The trip was a lot of driving and time in car so bear that in mind when you book.

My Family and I had a wonderful time with the Tour and we enjoyed every Safari day. The Tour Guide did his best to make sure that we were comfortable and were able to see the big 4!!!

I had an amazing experience. I booked the 3 day budget safari ( I keep wondering where budget came in as everything was so excellent). We had great sightings at the game drives, the accommodation was great, tasty food, big portions. Biggest props and thanks goes to our guide Kelvin who made this a trip of lifetime. HIGHLY recommend.

Friendly, patient tour organziers with a gem of a Tour guide
5/5

We went to Kenia the first time and it was also our first safari. We booked flight and safari tour separately and nagged the tour operators with dozens of emails. They always responded quickly and we very helpful. Since the booking process is very lean and all done via email we were not sure if this was all legit, but in the end we took the risk and booked the safari with a small deposit… it seems this is how safaris are booked.

Even though the safari started a bit bumpy (our driver was about 1h late) all worked out well in the end. We were taken to the office to pay the remaining amount and as a next step brought to our tour guide Jimmy who was already waiting with some other safari guests for our group safari. We booked a 7 day safari starting from nairobi: masai mara, nakuru, amboseli, tsavo ending at our hotel on diani beach.

The accomodations were all as described in the emails and even though we booked the budget variants, the camps and lodges were all nice and much better then we expected.

Among the tour itself the highlight of the safari was definitely our tour guide Jimmy. He speaks flawlessly english, is always friendly and helpful and knows an answer for even the dumbest questions. He knows his ways around all the parks and knows a bunch of rangers, drivers and park employees which helps a lot when searching the rare animals in the parks. Within 3 days we have seen Leopards, Lions, cheetahs, Elefants, rhinos and also the common animals like zebras, impalas, etc. I suggest you take Jimmys recommendations concerning the right time for the game drive seriously. Even though getting up at 5:30 in the morning hurts sometimes, we always got compensated with beautiful sceneries ( flock of gepards right beneath the jeep, lions feasting a zebra, etc). If you are looking for a driver with several years experience, he is your man.

If you you are also planning a tour as we had, i would recommend to skip lake navaisha as the boat tour is pretty expensive… maybe the walking tour is nicer, but we did not do that due to lack of time. So far masai mara and amboseli are our favorite parks.

The tour was amazing! The food was good and the tour guide really tried to find all the animals. It is like a fun hide and seek game he always said :). We saw the sunset and the sunrise in the nationalpark. I absolutely loved ur.

I was able to see all the animals I wanted to see. I am very grateful for the game drive. If I may say so, the food in the camp was not that good

Great itinerary - thorough tour of the best national parks in Kenya
5/5

Great 6-day safari tour. Visited Maasai Mara, Lake Nakuru and Amboseli in a 4x4 jeep. The trip was very well organised and everything was clearly explained.

Our guide Ritchie was excellent and very knowledge of all the things Kenyan (nature and the culture), and answered all my questions thoroughly and looked after us well throughout the trip.
