Evans, The Alpha
5/5

Our 7-day safari was nothing short of spectacular – an absolute 10 out of 10 experience. From start to finish, everything exceeded expectations. We were fortunate enough to see the Big Five and so much more, with each day bringing new surprises and breathtaking encounters.

A huge part of what made this trip so special was our guide, Evans. I can honestly say he is the best guide I’ve ever met. Professional, calm, and knowledgeable, he made us feel safe and taken care of at all times. I nicknamed him The Alpha – not only because he’s tall and strong, but also because he seems to command respect everywhere we went. He knows nearly every other guide on the routes, often helping them out and coordinating smoothly. It truly felt like he runs the show.

What impressed me most was how Evans went the extra mile whenever things didn’t go exactly according to plan. His ability to adapt, think ahead, and still make sure we had the best possible experience was outstanding.

If you’re considering a safari, I cannot recommend this enough. Thanks to Evans, our trip was not only unforgettable, but also inspiring. We’ll carry these memories forever!

Our Guide Stanley made out Safari unforgettable! A dream come true
5/5

We couldn’t be happier with our experience with Jocky Tours—especially thanks to our amazing guide, Stanley! Communication with the office was smooth and efficient; every email we sent was answered quickly and clearly.

From the moment we arrived, we were told, “Your guide is a senior one, very experienced!”—and that couldn’t have been more true. Stanley was incredibly kind, polite, and patient throughout the entire trip. During our game drives, he shared fascinating insights about the wildlife and made sure we spotted not just the Big Five and the Ugly Five, but so many other incredible animals too. We even got lucky enough to witness lions and ostriches during their mating season!

Stanley always managed to find the perfect angles for our photos, making sure we captured every moment beautifully. Our six days were filled with laughter, unforgettable memories, and so many fun moments. This tour truly exceeded all my expectations of what a safari could be.

Huge thanks to Stanley and the entire Jocky Tours team for making this dream come true! From Nairobi to Masai Mara, Lake Naivasha, Nakuru, and Amboseli Park—it was an adventure of a lifetime. I wholeheartedly recommend booking with this agency. Every penny spent is absolutely worth it!

Dream fulfilling adventure with authentic hospitality and an amazing guidance
5/5

This 6-Day safari, visiting the Masai Mara, the lake Nakuru and the amboseli park made our dream come true. Choosing the 6 days over the 3 or 4 days safari was totally worth it. We got to see all the big five and so much more! Every park was different so every day was an adventure.
Especially our guide Stanley was the reason this trip was so fulfilling. He was kind, funny, patient and all knew the best ankles to make the best fotos. Even the long drives in between the parks were very interesting because of his story’s and knowledge about the kenian wildlife.
You could ask him everything and he even invited us on the last night to share the dinner with his other colleagues with was so funny and authentic.
We also recommend choosing the budget accommodations because you will be out for game drives the whole time, and the beds and toilets were very good! Even the food was always very nice!
So we can honestly say it was worth every dollar! And a special thanks again to our guide Stanley who made this adventure so special !

Fantastic Safari Experience in Kenya
5/5

The whole trip was perfectly organized by our guide John Walter, blending adventure with comfort. Our guide’s knowledge, timing, and warm personality made every day flow effortlessly, turning each stop into a highlight rather than just another destination.

If you’re dreaming of an authentic Kenyan safari that delivers jaw-dropping wildlife, diverse landscapes, and genuine insight, this is the one to take.

An Incredible Safari Experience in Kenya’s Most Famous Reserves
5/5

Our safari through Masai Mara, Lake Naivasha, Lake Nakuru, and Amboseli was truly unforgettable. Every destination offered something unique — dramatic savannahs full of lions and cheetahs in the Mara, serene boat rides with hippos and birds on Naivasha, flamingos and rhinos at Nakuru, and the iconic sight of elephants beneath Mount Kilimanjaro in Amboseli.
Our guide John Walter made the trip exceptional. His patience, professionalism, and warm personality made us feel safe and well cared for every day.
It’s an experience we’ll remember for a lifetime.

Budget operator that doesn't discount on service
5/5

Maybe due to time difference, the web chat function on Jocky's website is unresponsive, however, the email communication is prompt and informative. The quoted price is competitive, and names of all the accommodations were given in the quote so if you're not satisfied with them after researching into reviews you can pay for upgrade. Our guide, John Walter, is very knowledgeable and experienced. We saw pretty much all the animals, big or small, and had the unforgettable experience of elephant herd passing right in front of our vehicle, lions mating, and up close with giraffes and zebras. Highly recommend without hesitation.

Lovely experience overall
5/5

We have just said goodbye to our driver Evans after a 7-day tour. It was a really enjoyable experience. We covered 5 national parks during the week, so quite a packed programme. Evans is an experienced driver and spotter of animals and we felt safe in his hands. He's not very chatty, but he answered our questions when we had any. The communication with Jocky Tours was easy, they were very quick to reply. Would definitely recommend!
