Excellent
The Jocky tour safari guide Tribon made the trip to Masai Mara from Nairobi for the 3 days made it an excellent experience. Amazing guy, always smiling and going the extra mile to make the trip memorable. Tribon was like family man from day 1. While selecting the best tour operators are important, selecting the best tour guide like Tribon is even more important. Ask for Tribon when you reserve from Jocky Tours. Happy Masai Mara.

Exceptional experience
Our 7-day group safari through Masai Mara, Nakuru, Naivasha, and Amboseli exceeded every expectation and will stay with us forever. From the very beginning to the final day, everything was thoughtfully organized and ran smoothly.
A huge part of what made this journey so special was our guide, Francis. His passion for wildlife and deep knowledge of the parks were remarkable, but what truly set him apart was his commitment to us as guests. He went out of his way every single day to track animals, position the vehicle perfectly, and make sure we never felt rushed or missed out. It was clear that giving us the best possible safari experience genuinely mattered to him, and that made all the difference.
We stayed in tented safari camps, which struck the perfect balance between comfort and adventure. Each camp was well maintained, the staff were incredibly friendly and attentive, and the meals were consistently fresh and flavorful. Falling asleep to the sounds of nature around us was magical and added a level of authenticity you simply can’t replicate elsewhere.
Before the trip even began, Jocky Tours impressed us with their excellent communication. They were responsive, clear, and professional, answering all our questions and making the planning process stress-free.
All in all, this safari was everything we hoped for and more. If you’re considering a Kenyan safari and want an experience that feels personal, well-guided, and truly unforgettable, Jocky Tours, and especially Francis, come highly recommended.

Extraordinary experience
We did the 7-day Masai Mara / Nakuru / Naivasha / Amboseli group tour, and it was an extraordinary experience from start to finish. Francis, our guide, was exceptional — not only incredibly knowledgeable about the wildlife, but genuinely dedicated to making sure we encountered every animal we hoped to see and had the best experience possible.
We chose the tented safari option, and all the camps were comfortable and run by hosts who were warm, welcoming, and attentive. The food at every accommodation was freshly prepared and delicious. Being so close to nature was a highlight — we could even hear wild animals at night, which made the experience feel truly authentic and unforgettable.
Communication with Jocky Tours prior to booking was seamless and professional; they responded quickly and clearly to all of our questions. Overall, we can wholeheartedly recommend Jocky Tours to anyone looking for a truly memorable safari experience.

Helpful and Efficient
My friends and I had a great time with Jocky Tours. Their communication was excellent, and the booking process was very easy. Our tour guide, Dennis, was great. He was calm and capable, and we felt like we were in good hands for the entire trip. He took great care to ensure we got the most out of our animal viewing experience. There were some times that I felt we were waiting at a spot for too long, but sure enough, Dennis's intuition was correct and something spectacular eventually happened.
The seats on the vehicle were a bit worn out, which made some of the long driving days a bit challenging. But besides that, we were very happy with our tour and tour guide.

Simply the best wildlife spotter in Kenya
We did a 6-day group safari to Maasai Mara, Lake Nakuru and Amboseli National Park and had a great experience. The parks were very different and all beautiful, with lots of wildlife.
Our guide Ken was excellent. He was very experienced and we were often the first at the best spots. He also informed us well about the next steps and offered optional activities like visiting a Maasai village, which was a nice addition. We didn’t visit the Maasai village ourselves, but one person from our group did and said it was worth doing.
Overall a very well organized safari and highly recommended.

Great safari
Everything was alright with the tour. Good value for the money.
We stayed in tents which were sufficient enough for our needs.
We got picked up and dropped off, which was very helpful.
The food was nothing special but good enough, the breakfast was the better one.
The people and the staff were very friendly and helpful!
What really made this experience amazing for us was the guide that was appointed to us. His name is Jeff and he did an outstanding job! He was proper looking after all of us and managed to show us almost every species there is in Masai Mara.
Jeff is an extremely experienced guide and brilliant driver, very pleasant to talk to, super friendly, helpful and knowledgeable and I can't praise him enough!
