Amazing experience!!
If you’re lucky enough to get David Mnyama as your guide, consider your safari already a success. This guy has jokes, patience, and eagle eyes for spotting animals hiding in the bushes. He even knows animal names in Chinese, which cracked us up. Excellent driving skills, super punctual, and clearly passionate about his job. Highly recommend!

A lifetime experience
Witnessing the Great Migration was a once-in-a-lifetime experience, made truly unforgettable by our guide, Jimmy Jockey.
His energy, expertise, and endless patience ensured that every moment was perfectly executed—we couldn't have asked for a better guide to bring this spectacle to life.

Our Amboseli safari was exceptionally well organised, with a knowledgeable guide, seamless logistic
We had a great experience with Jocky Tours and Safaris in Amboseli. Communication was easy, everything was well organised, and the tour was great value for money.
Our guide, Bonny, was excellent - friendly, knowledgeable, and always keen to help us spot wildlife and make the most of our time in the park. We even saw a cheetah up close which was a real highlight.
We’d definitely recommend Jocky Tours and Safaris to anyone planning a safari in Kenya! Thank you so much Bonny!!

The guide is what makes a safari unforgettable
When you book a safari, you can choose a luxury hotel or a more modest one. You can choose a bigger vehicle or a smaller one. But once you enter the national parks, everyone is on the same game drive. The one thing that truly makes the difference is your guide.
Thank you, Rob, for making our safari an unforgettable experience.
Your passion for wildlife, your deep knowledge of nature, and the way you shared it with us made every single game drive exciting. What impressed me the most was your incredible network and communication with other guides, rangers and people along the road. Thanks to your experience and your contacts, we were able to spot an amazing variety of animals, often in the right place at the right time.
Beyond finding wildlife, we really appreciated all the conversations we had during the long drives. We learned so much about Kenya, its people, its culture, and its wildlife. You turned every drive into an experience, not just a transfer between parks.
Driving hundred of kilometers on challenging roads, always safely, calmly, and professionally, is another part of the job that visitors often underestimate. You made us feel comfortable and safe throughout the entire journey.
My two daughters and I are leaving Kenya with memories that will stay with us forever. If you’re planning a safari, ask for Rob. He is knowledgeable, professional, passionate, patient, and genuinely committed to giving his guests the best possible safari experience.
A perfect 10/10. We couldn’t have asked for a better guide.
I would like to thank the entire Jocky Tours team for organizing an amazing safari for my two daughters and me.
From the very first contact, booking directly with their office in Kenya through the internet was simple, fast, and transparent (thx xxx and xxx). Communication was always clear, and when we arrived in Kenya, everything happened exactly as it had been explained.
Payment was straightforward, whether by credit card or cash, and all the logistics were handled professionally. We chose the hotel package, and every hotel selected exceeded our expectations. Throughout the planning process, the team accommodated all of our requests and made the experience feel tailored to our family.
Most importantly, they paired us with an outstanding guide, Rob, who made the safari truly unforgettable. A great guide is the heart of any safari, and Jocky Tours clearly understands that.
If I had to mention one small point for improvement, it would be the way a hotel reservation issue was handled one evening during the trip. The situation was eventually partially resolved, I believe it could have been managed differently. A happy customer always come back.
Overall, I recommend Jocky Tours to anyone looking for an authentic Kenyan safari at a fair and affordable price. They offer great value for money, excellent organization, wonderful accommodations, and an experience that we will remember for the rest of our lives.
Thank you for an unforgettable adventure!

Very responsive and effortless
From the beginning onwards Jocky Tours helped me create the best overall itinerary in terms of my requests and needs. I was given many options, prices and great suggestions from beginning onwards. They didn’t just help me with safari details but also hotel bookings for example. I was added to a group with a great tour guide, working not only as a driver, but also as a great spotter for animals, telling us about interesting animal facts and always trying his best to make us feel comfortable and great at all times. I therefore really want to thank John Walter particularly. I would definitely recommend this company and guide if you wish a smooth and effortless safari experience!

Papa John has been extremely accommodating and a pleasure to have on the tour.
I went on the 7 day safari tour with papa John. This trip has been nothing short of amazing and impressive. Papa John is very knowledgeable about the parks and wildlife as well as going out of his way for us to get some of the best photos and to find the big 5. Jocky tours has curated a wonderful excursion. Will recommend this trip for anyone wanting to explore Kenya and the wonderful country this is.

Amazing!
I booked a 7 day safari tour with Jocky tours in Kenya and was blessed to have Papa John as my tour guide. He is very personable and knowledgeable and took his time to allow us to appreciate and take in our surroundings. There was no guarantee on which animals we would spot but Papa John was able to find us the Big 5 and more . He even went out of his way to drop off a fellow tour member to the Tanzanian border to continue his trip. The accommodations were great and there were hot showers in each location.
