It was a stunning experience with many beautiful sceneries, animals and people
Before the tour the communication was sometimes slowly. Apart from that everything was excellent. I loved to visit all those beautiful national parks and to see so many different animals. The people were very kind. The driver, whose name is Albert, was very well-managed, relaxed and knew how to handle everything. I’ve never experienced someone with such great driving skills before. The accommodations were fine and each time we got a better one than before. The first park was stunning because of the scenery and the huge amount of different animals (Masai Mara), the second (Lake Nakuru) was beautiful especially because of the lake and the different birds, the third one (Amboseli) even got a lion family living in it and we saw the great Kilimanjaro.
It was a great and stunning experience and the company is reliable.

I loved every minute!
The guide had a lot of knowledge, but did not share too much. Every question got answered without hesitation and was very understandable. The guide knew where to search for the animals and saw all big five and more. The only negative was that the driver drove a little too close to some lions.

It was was a very good Safari. We got to see all the big five, which is really rare. The drivers drove a little fast and they were sometimes maybe a bit to close to the animals. But it was worth the money and we had a lot of fun!

A good trip, a little too close some of the animals
We did drive a little to fast sometimes and way too close to some of the animals, but the rest was very good and we did see all the animals we wanted to! We also had a amazing lunch!

Comptency, reactivity and kidness
We really enjoyed our 7 days safari, our guide, Salomon was great ! He spotted all the animals and explained a lot about them, taking time to observe and explain their behaviour. He also decscribed Kenyan culture and this was really interesting. He made from our safari the greatest experience. Thanks to him !
The hotels were as expected apart from one which was not very nice, noisy and the "room" was tiny.

Excellent tour, communication a bit slow
We booked a 7 day safari with jocky tours and visited Masai Mara, Lake Nakuru and Amboseli national parks. Jocky tours was very helpful and ubcomplicated in including a planned interruption of the safari so we could stay at a Maasai village for two nights.
The drivers Kikitu and Philip were very friendly, helpful, resourceful and caring. They both know a lot about the wild animals and the history of country and people. Kikitu found animals in the rarest places, Philip also provided books to check animals in further detail (which I liked). I highly recommend them both.
Communication with Jocky tours was okay. The response time via mail was a bit slow and not all questiobs were answered. After our intermission, the new driver and us were waiting for each other at the same place for 3 h, because we did not receive each others contacts. But on the other hand, jocky was very flexible, as mentioned.
The safaris in all three national parks were amazing. The landscape is very different, so each was a new experience. We saw a bunch of wild animals of various kind, including four of the big five (for rhinos you should visit Lake Nakuru) and many other impressive animals. We got a lot for our money and can recommend to book a tour with jocky tours.

They are good n delivered what they promised
We had a great trip of Masai Mara with our driver/guide Mr. David Mwangi. He was knowledgeable and caring. I would say it was because of David we enjoyed the trip. He was patient when we went for the river crossing of the wildebeest and it’s because of his patience that we were able to witness the river crossing. If anyone wants to take a trip with Jocky Tours then i highly recommend David. 5 stars to David.
The Lenchada tourist camp is a basic place but workable as you are there for the wildlife. The electricity is there for a few hours in the morning n a few hours in the evening.
The hotels in Nakuru and Naivasha are also good, although I think Nakuru n Naivasha can be skipped. We travelled hours and hours from Masai Mara to Nakuru for just 60-90 minutes Safari. Go to Nakuru only if you really really want to see the Rhino.
I have given 4 stars because we were made to change SIX vehicles during our 5 nights trip. At one point I felt they were playing passing the parcel, with me being the parcel.
Overall we had a good trip n great sightings in Masai Mara. It would have been an excellent trip had we skipped Nakuru and Naivasha.
If I go again I would use jocky tours.
