Amazing 6 Day Safari
We had an incredible 6 day private safari as part of our honeymoon, hosted by Lenchada Safaris, with our driver/guide Moses! Booking was easy and simple, and Alex answered all the questions we had beforehand via email. We visited Masai Mara-Lake Naivasha-Amboseli and stayed deep in the park at Masai Mara, at the Ashnil Camp at the recommendation of Alex after our first choice was booked out by a private group. It was a fantastic choice that put us right in the middle of the park for morning and evening game drives. Objectively, Moses might have been the best safari driver in the park. Besides seeming to know everyone, he made every effort to make sure we saw the big 5 (which definitely requires a little luck along with a ton of skill). On our last morning in Masai Mara, Moses heard there was a rhino (the last of the big 5 for us) in the distance over the radio, zoomed across barely-marked trails, and got us there right in time, just before the rhino disappeared into the bush for the day. Incredible! As a side-note, DEFINITELY upgrade to the Land Cruiser, instead of a van. It would have been impossible to go where we did and see as many animals as we did in the park if we were in a van instead of a Land Cruiser! Lake Naivasha was a good stopover, where we did a “walk with wildlife” at Moses’s recommendation, in addition to the included boat tour, which was definitely worth it, as we got to be on the ground right next to giraffes, zebras, and wildebeests. On our full-day drive at our final stop, Amboseli, Moses made sure we saw everything possible, and knew exactly where to drive and pull over so that we always have Mt Kilimanjaro in the background for the photos. So many elephants!! Overall it was an amazing experience at a great value, and we wouldn’t hesitate to book with Lenchada (and hopefully have Moses as our guide) again!

What a great company !
Solomon and Jong are true ambassadors for Kenya. They take the planning and execution very serious. We loved what they organized and would recommend them to everyone. Solomon (our driver) was a true gem that knew all the right places and respect nature where he must. We would definitely recommend them!

Excellent safari, really well organised, and we saw a lot of animals!
Highly recommended!! Our very experienced driver Johnny was great, always one step ahead, predicting animal’s behaviour. We were able to watch all type of animals, more than we expected to. Accommodation and food was very good. Definitely, a life time experience.

Great experience
We just came back from a 6 day group joining safari with jocky tours and safari and it was a great experience. We started in Masai Mara and proceeded to Lake Nakuru and from there to Amboseli Nationalpark. The communication was very easy and Minh always answered very fast. Our guide Joshua knew a lot about the animals and the nature and told us a lot of interesting facts. Because of him we even saw black rhinos in Lake Nakuru Park which is very rare. All in all we really enjoyed our tour and would highly recommend to do a safari with jocky tours!

Funny, nice to talk to and educating
The drivers are great to chat with and have a laugh with and are educative about animals during safaris. Amazing durable jeeps that get through some of the rough roads of kenya.

Approachable and informative
All the drivers were incredible with identifying the animals and giving us heaps of information as we drove through the safari. John, Jimmy and Alex were the drivers and they were so friendly and had patience with us all and i couldnt be happier to have them as the drivers.

The drivers were welcoming and helpful throughout our trip.
For our trip around Kenya, our group had a driver named Jimmy. He and the other three drivers were very friendly to us throughout the entire trip to the Maasai Mara, Amboseli and Nairobi. They took care of our needs and ensured we had frequent stops, food breaks etc. The drivers showed sacrifice when they were willing to drive an extra 40 minutes to their own accommodation after dropping us all off our camps when there was no space available for them.
