Lovely experience with amazing guide - We had a great time. The food and safaris were awesome. The camps were basic, but all of them had really nice staff. Our safari guide, Jimmy, was world-class. His knowledge of the animals/birds was incredible and his driving skills were even better. You could see he is truly one of the most respected leaders amongst the guides and parks. Thank you for a great experience!!

Excellent Safari tour! - It was our first Safari experience and I can recommend Jocky. They were always on time and everything was organized well. We have seen almost all possible animals, the tour was safe and our driver Jimmy had a great knowledge about the park and animals. Moreover I’d like to mention that one of us got really sick when we were traveling and we had to look for a hospital. Jimmy not only helped us finding the hospital but also waited for us when we were there. I would like to express our gratitude to Jimmy for all the help and an amazing trip.

Saiing smooth on the sea of actions - Have to thank our tour guide Francis the Bushman, who had it all together. Very good driver, knows his way around and if there is animal action noticed somewhere, he took us there to see it all. That was a great experience to encounter Kenyan wildlife! Thank you from the bottom of my heart!

Amazing experience and super Operator! - Overall experience was amazing, we had an amazing Operator Jeff and his 4x4 named «Spy girl » drove us really easily through the Safari. Jeff was the best operator one could wish for! Expert with animals and the roads, funny & patient! We got in advance all Infos about the tour and there are possibilities to upgrade Hotels. We had the Chance to do different Safaris, in 4x4 (Masai Mara & Nakuru), Boat (Naivasha) and bicycle (Hell’s Gate). Nakuru was for me a bit less impressive than the rest. We felt really safe during the whole tour - just make sure not to go out alone in the Masai at 12am as you might hear Hyenas really close by ;-). Every hotels were clean, and people gentle, and we had own showers and toilets everywhere. The Mara Lenchada Camp was a bit more Basic than the rest, but ok for 2 nights. All people were gentle during the tour. I totally recommand it for the price. Thank you so much Jeff for this amazing experience.

Jimmy was great and we had a great experience - Jocky tours could have been a bit better - I'll first start by saying that our guide, Jimmy was absolutely excellent throughout the whole trip and went above and beyond to make everything memorable for us! Initially upon booking, email responses were fast but a bit short. Sometimes I'd send an email with a few important questions and only receive answers for one. We were told we could either pay the $2600 dollar fee by cash in USD (not really comfortable carrying that much cash with me), pay by card and incur a 3.5% fee for "processing", or make a bank transfer and pay an extra $20 to cover bank charges. I chose the latter. Upon arriving in the office, we were told that wasn't an option and repeatedly had a card terminal thrust at us. He said the 3.5% covered bank charges but he could make it 3%, then 2%... (Dodgy). Finally he dropped the fee and we paid the $2600 by card with no fee - I'm still not certain whether this fee is genuine. We were asked to take 3 guests with us on the 6hr drive to Masai mara. We agreed but feel like many others would prefer not to - having paid a lot more for a private tour - it is difficult to say no when put on the spot like that. The tour itself was great - Masai mara was excellent and saw so many animals close up thanks to our guide Jimmy. He was one of the highlights of our trip - kind, knowledgeable and skilled at driving off-road. Where many others got stuck, Jimmy didn't. Lenchada tented camp was great - basic but that is what we bought. Hot showers and nice beds. Good food with vegetarian options. Nakura accommodation was great. Good food and pool. Next morning was Nakura lake game drive which was a highlight - black rhinos and lions and much more. Naivasha lake was also cool with a boat ride to see hippos and other animals on the shore. Hells gate national park was excellent where we rented bikes and cycled among zebras and gazelles to the canyon. Factor in an extra $20 per person for bike rental and a guide for this. The long drive to amboseli was next but unfortunately Jocky tours had neglected to book our guide a room leading to him having to find accommodation some distance away from us. This meant the next days pre-morning game drive was delayed till nearly 10am and by then Kilimanjaro was covered in cloud. A bit annoying but I must stress this was not the fault of our guide. Overall a great trip and amazing memories made, could have been a bit better on the organisation side by Jocky.
