Very enthusiastic about giving you the best experience, very client-oriented, no single failure
The first thing that struck me upon arriving to Kenya was the amount of rubbish along the roads, but I guess it has nothing to do with the safaris.
As for the safari I had with Jocky Tours it did live up to the expectations that I had. I didn't get to see the great migration, since it wasn't the season yet, but thanks to my guide James I was able to see every other creature in the savannah. James would always provide a couple of words about the name of the creature and interesting facts.
The weather was nice which really added up to the overall impression. I always asked the guide to stop the car and take a picture, which he gladly did, which I guess was another positive moment.
Oh, over the several days of my safari I got to stay in camps of different price segments, and that was my choice (when I was offered to try camps nice and not very nice, I said yes). So, from my experience, it is better to stay in 'nice' camps, it really is important (at least for me).
As for the Jocky Tours, again, very professional, friendly, client-oriented.

Unique and personalised service
Jibha Africa Safaris helped me with my trip to Africa. Patrick was exceedingly helpful in the planning of my trip. He has an exceptional knowledge about Southern Africa and he will assist you in tailor-making your itinerary based on your preferences. I definitely recommend you to book with him for a hustle free trip. You won't be disappointed. Their services were personalised and the tour was exactly the way he described them, in fact, they surpassed my expectations!

Best established and experienced tour firm in Kenya.
My Sana adventure and safari coordinator was exceptional. From the start, they took my brief and put together a 5 days schedule for me that didn't need any change. The agent who was helping me, answered all my questions and send me all necessary information not only for me to prepare properly but also to alight any concerns i may have had.The execution was seamless. I stayed at 2 different camps & hotels, took also 1 flight between camps,transfers, activities and game drives. All executed to perfection by this company and their Partners, everyone involved was very professional and generous. Great smiles!!

Doing a safari with a friendly and knowledgeable driver/guide makes all the difference!
The communications with Wildebeest Safaris LTD was mostly by email, which I appreciated. We were picked up from our hotel on time and delivered to the tour bus (both the hotel and tour pickup location were in Nairobi) that would take us to Maasai Mara about a 5 hour drive away. There were 2 people in our party and a total of 7 people on our 9 passenger bus. We were fortunate to have a friendly, chatty group of people on our bus. It's a loooong drive. The people we drove to Maasai Mara with were the same people we would end up spending the next 3 days with.
Our specific tour was for 12 year old guests and older. We were grateful to not have very young passengers on our bus for 3 days.
While on safari, our driver, Raheem, communicated by radio with the other drivers to be sure we saw the Big Five. If one tour group found a specific animal on the savanna, he would radio the other drivers so they could head right to that spot. We lucked out and saw the Big Five as well as so many other animals.
Raheem was attentive to our group and helpful in every way possible. I was not feeling well on our last day and he was concerned and sensitive to my issue. Fortunately, I was able to make it back to Nairobi without incident.
We were fortunate to have a group of people on our bus that all spoke English and were friendly. There were other tour groups that just didn't seem to be having as much fun as we were. I feel like I've made friends for a lifetime.

Great customer care, competitive fees and experienced staff.
With bookings and guide by Limitless, I and my friends had all my itinerary expectations well catered in Uganda. I hope to return later this year.

Trip of a lifetime. Alliance Destinations makes it happen!
From the first email contact to the final goodbye at the airport, Alliance Destinations succeeded in making our adventure a fantastic one. They took care of all the details leaving us nothing to do but enjoy and soak up all the wonderful things that Kenya has to offer. When time is such a valuable commodity, having people you can trust to take care of things for you is priceless. James was not only our guide but became one of our group! Yes, I will be referring Alliance Destination to others and look forward to traveling with them and James and his crew again!
