Five Perfect Days Discovering Kenya with David
We could not have asked for a better experience during our five-day safari in the Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru, and Lake Naivasha.
From the very beginning, David Mnyama welcomed us with a smile and immediately made us feel comfortable. He was kind, reliable, knowledgeable, and extremely professional throughout the journey. He always arrived on time, followed the planned itinerary carefully, and paid close attention to our wishes.
David knew exactly where to take us for the best wildlife sightings. We saw an amazing number of animals, many of them surprisingly close, and his explanations helped us better understand what we were observing. His knowledge, enthusiasm, and respect for wildlife made every game drive special.
The itinerary was varied and fascinating. In addition to the safari drives, we particularly enjoyed visiting a Maasai village and taking a boat trip on Lake Naivasha. These experiences allowed us to discover different sides of Kenya and made the journey even more complete.
Jocky Tours was responsive and helpful at every stage. Even when a small issue arose with our hotel reservation on the final night, the team reacted quickly and found an excellent alternative solution.
Our sincere thanks go to David and the entire Jocky Tours team for five unforgettable days. We would gladly travel with them again and recommend them without hesitation.

About: Safari365
I have been too 107 countries and I have never had such good service like Safari 365.
5/5

It was the most enjoyable trip I have had, having now visited 107 countries. Traveling alone from Australia, at 76 years of age is, is a little nerve raking, but I had none, due to the expertise experience of my travel consultant, Jackie Curry from Safari 365. Also, my Conseige Stephenie Benjamin, there were no issues from Beginning to End. Assistance in getting Visa's etc, was all made so easy doing it yourself with Stepanie's help. The minute I arrived in Kenya, the Hotel Four Points by Sheraton at Hurlington supplied me with a driver and guide who took me to tourist attractions in Nairobi. The Flight into Amboseli National Park, Masai Mara, Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater and Zanzibar were all on time. The guides taking me across borders and taking me to air strips for flights to Serengeti were all polite, on time and extremely helpful. The Safari Guides could not do enough for you, and made sure your sighting if the game was the best possible. I can certainly recommend using Safari365 to book your trip of a lifetime, African Safari.

An Unforgettable Safari with David and Jocky Tours
5/5

We experienced a five-day safari through the Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru, and Lake Naivasha: an extraordinary, well-organized adventure filled with unforgettable moments.

Our guide, David Mnyama, was exceptional: professional, punctual, helpful, and always smiling. Thanks to his deep knowledge of the area, he guided us expertly, allowing us to discover spectacular landscapes and authentic aspects of Kenya’s nature and culture.

The wildlife sightings were incredible: we saw countless animals, often from very close by. David could spot every species and passionately explain its behavior. We also visited a Maasai village and enjoyed a wonderful boat ride on Lake Naivasha.

Throughout the trip, we felt safe and well looked after. The organization by Jocky Tours was also excellent: the agency always responded quickly and courteously, both before and during the safari. The only minor issue, concerning the hotel booking for the final night, was promptly resolved with an excellent alternative accommodation.

We would like to thank David and the entire Jocky Tours team for this intense and unforgettable experience. We wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone wishing to discover Kenya with competent and passionate professionals.

Tarangire Suricata Tour with Alawi and Silas
5/5

We have just completed a fantastic 2-day safari in Tarangire National Park with Suricata Safari Tour, accompanied by Alawi, our driver, and Silas, our French-speaking guide.

Silas shared a wealth of fascinating information about the animals and the park, while Alawi drove extremely well and always knew where to take us to make the most of the experience.

What impressed us most was their incredible ability to spot animals. Several times, they suddenly stopped the vehicle and showed us animals hidden in the vegetation or perched in trees — including a beautiful owl. Definitely not one of the Big Five, but the encounter was just as surprising and majestic!

Throughout the safari, they constantly did their best to help us discover not only the splendour of the wildlife, but also the beauty of Tarangire itself, with its incredible landscapes and colours.

We also really enjoyed talking with them during meals and learning more about their lives and local culture. They were attentive to our comfort, always smiling, full of positive energy and clearly passionate about their work.

A huge thank you to Alawi and Silas for making these two days such a memorable experience. We highly recommend Suricata Safari Tour!

Best Safari ever!
5/5

We booked a safari with Allano and his team as a family, and we can honestly say: we were thrilled from start to finish!

The pre-trip organization was exceptional. Allano explained exactly how the trip would unfold, what we should bring, and what to expect, so we knew right from the start what was in store. He was available to answer every question—always friendly, patient, and genuinely interested. Whenever a problem arose, he took care of it immediately and found a solution.

The airport pickup went perfectly, too; we were met upon arrival and given an incredibly warm welcome.

Our guide, Captain James, was the absolute highlight. He speaks excellent German and is incredibly personable, humorous, and patient. He not only told us a lot about the wildlife and the landscape but also shared personal stories from his life and culture.

Our cook also made a wonderful impression. He was always friendly, practically always had a smile on his face, and worked with us to prepare everything beautifully. The food was delicious every day and made our evenings together perfect.

Captain James knows the Serengeti and the Ngorongoro Crater like the back of his hand. With his incredible eye, he spotted animals we would never have seen on our own. Throughout it all, he always took the necessary time and never rushed us.

We were incredibly lucky to see—among other things—lions, elephants with their calves, a leopard, and even a jackal.

This trip will remain a cherished memory for our family forever. Many thanks to Allano, his team, our wonderful cook, and especially to Captain James for this fantastic experience!

A really professional journey
5/5

we are so lucky to have Roger being our guide for this safari. He is so professional that takes us see many animals (many lions, cheetahs, leopards in Serengenti and rhinos in Nogorngor crate) in limited time and very patient for every watching. During the trip we talked about everything: animal, the masai people and development of Tanzania which deepen our understand of this impressive country. I Recommend SOMEWHERE IN AFRICA 100%.
The only issue is that the vehicle is not in very great condition, so the ride through Serengeti will be quite bumpy. But considering the company's relatively good price, I think it's fair.

Best Safari EVER 👍🏻
5/5

What we were able to experience on this safari was something we probably couldn't have imagined before.

Of course, we knew that you can never guarantee which animals you will see on a safari. Our guide Captain James explained this to us honestly: Nature determines the process and every day can be completely different.

In the end we were incredibly lucky and were able to see an impressive variety of animals - including a leopard, lion, elephants with their babies and even a jackal.

Captain James was incredibly patient. He was able to spot animals from a distance where we could see absolutely nothing with the naked eye. His knowledge of animal behavior was impressive.

But even outside of the game drives the atmosphere was simply great. Our chef was always incredibly friendly and in a good mood. He always had a smile on his face, prepared everything with us and prepared really delicious food for us. The meals were always a nice part of the safari experience.

We also really liked his driving style. The trails in the Serengeti can be really adventurous, but James rode very safely and responsibly and always made sure we were safe.

A huge thank you also to Allano, who organized everything brilliantly and prepared us perfectly in advance.

This safari was a unique experience for us and a memory that we as a family will keep forever.

Best Safari EVER
5/5

If we had to describe our safari in a single sentence, we would say: In Captain James, we had the perfect guide by our side.

We were traveling as a family and felt incredibly at ease from the very first moment. Captain James speaks excellent German and is funny, open, and incredibly warm-hearted. Above all, however, he is a very attentive and responsible driver.

Especially on the Serengeti’s roads—which can be very bumpy in places—he always made sure everyone was comfortable. After hitting particularly rough patches, he would check to see if everyone was okay, and overall, he drove very carefully and with great foresight.

What impressed us most was his knowledge. He knows the Serengeti and the Ngorongoro Crater incredibly well and would spot animals before we even realized what he was looking at.

The cook was also fantastic. He was always in good spirits, incredibly friendly, and constantly had a smile on his face. He prepared everything nicely with us and provided delicious meals every day. This made our shared mealtimes particularly pleasant and sociable.

Captain James also shared a great deal with us about the wildlife, the landscape, and his own life. This turned the safari into a truly personal experience.

For us, Captain James was not just a driver or guide; he played a huge part in making this trip an experience of a lifetime. We would choose him as our guide again in a heartbeat and recommend him wholeheartedly.
