Our tourguide is Zack, who is skillful, kind and reliable.
The journey is very unforgettable. This is the first time we have come to the African continent. I hope to meet more animals next time.

Very excellent experience in the magic world of Serengeti and our guide Zack is a great great man.
It was a very perfect trip. I saw a variety of creatures and scenery, and experienced different customs and accommodation. In particular, our guide Zack was a very safe and reliable person. He took us through the whole process safely and showed us a lot of wonderful things.Magic world Serengeti,see you next time.

Extremely excellent
My first contact was with Pamela who took care of all the details of the trip very efficiently. At first I was apprehensive but everything that was on the itinerary was done.
About trip…..It was more than I expected. Thobias our guide was excellent with us, easy to communicate with, always willing to fulfill our requests, treated us like family, and was always punctual. It was truly an amazing trip, worth every penny. We really want to go back and also want to visit more African countries. We're sorry it was so short, but we'll return home to work harder and take more trips like this.

Raphael and Hadija were great to work with, very quick to respond and very helpful with ideas.
Our safaris with Jambo Masai Tours were planned according to the areas we were interested in seeing and to fit our budget. The accommodations were very nice for the money. Our tour guides for the safaris were very knowledgeable and we saw lots of animals including the big five. We took a hot air balloon ride over the Serengeti which was amazing in itself. We are in our early seventies and my husband has Parkinson’s and we were able to do this trip because everyone was so helpful to us. Since it was vehicle safaris, we didn’t have to do very much walking. Overall, I would encourage seniors or anyone to take this trip of a lifetime as we did. The people were great and I got home without my jackets, which Raphael promptly sent them to me! Unbelievable trip!

Unethical at its best
So, as wildlife conservationist, we wanted to experience our first ever Safari and what better place than the Massai Mara ?
we decided to trust the good reviews this Tour Operator has and booked a 6 days safari through the Mara, Nakuru and Amboseli.
That was a mistake.
I don't know how is it possible that so many people are blindfold about what is going on in Mara but Jocky Tour is definitly part of the problem. I never seen so much unethical behavior to satisfy clients on a game drive. It was not just our guide, it was all of them. Jocky Tour is responsible because it pushes those kind of behavior, to satisfy their clients, to have a cool selfie and when I confronted them about it they had nothing to say anymore. We were next to a lioness with 2 cubs, hiding in bush, the car was at less than 2 METERS away, stressing them, phones ringing, two guides from two different companies talking to each other loudly. It was 50 plus cars in front of a lioness with a kill, she didn't know what to do anymore. 50 plus cars again cercling a scared leopard in a bush to get a photo. Loud engines, people talking loudly, cars trying to get in front of one another for their guests to have a better view, it was pure chaos. When I confronted our guide about it, he told me that he'll try to stay discret and keep a safe distance from the animals. But nontheless, one poor cheetah with 40 plus cars around latter during the day was the nail in the coffin for us. All those tour operators are killing the Mara, one of the last wild jewel of Africa, all that for short term profit and to satisfy clients that think it's a zoo. It changes animal behavior and causing so much damage on the land to have so much vehicules with no regulations!
Studies shows that cheetah to have less cubs in the Mara because of the stress caused by all this. Lionesses loose kills, buffalos can't escape anymore, blocked by army of people and let's not talk about the great migration... There is countless and coutless exemple of thoses abuses.
Also, the program was not followed, as we should have had a full day in the Mara but insead it was cut short ta have the optional visit of a Massai village. Which is also a big joke as it doesn't look authentic at all, it is more of a show for tourists.
PLEASE, if you read this, make sure your tour operator is not some kind of money profit, selfish organisation like Jocky Tour that doesn't think about the environnement and the damage it causes. Make sure they are ethical and that their guides are well trained and aware about animals safety. I understand that everybody doesn't have the money for the private experience which is our case at the moment. But we still left the safari at the end of the first day. Even if we're not getting our money back because we didn't finish it (and I don't mind paying the parc fees), we don't want to be involve and witness something like this EVER again. So save a little more money but make sure you go there to respect the place and enjoyed it for it's true value, to keep it as wild as possible.

Harrison was very responsive and professional. Thank you!
We booked a transfer to and from the airport as well as a day tour to Chobe national park.

Thank you!

An Unforgettable Experience!
Serengeti Green was an amazing tour operator for our safari. Over 4 days, we visited Tarangire, Serengeti, and Ngorongoro Crater and it was absolutely amazing. Our guide, Goodluck, was indeed good luck. We saw the Big 5, and made a good friend along the way. Goodluck was very knowledgable about the wildlife and the plants, often stopping to point out things we might have otherwise missed, especially birds and plants. His wife even cooked lunch for us on the first day! We had a great time and when we go back, we'll definitely try to book Serengeti Green again!
