James Gichina was an awesome tour guide <3 !
5/5

Unforgettable Masai Mara Safari with James Gichina

James Gichina was an outstanding tour guide, and our experience in Masai Mara was truly unforgettable. Thanks to his expertise and exceptional guiding skills, we had the rare opportunity to see the Big 5—lions, rhinos, cheetahs, leopards, and elephants—up close, along with so many other incredible animals.

James’s knowledge of the wildlife and the Masai Mara ecosystem was impressive, and his clear and engaging explanations enriched every moment. He tailored the experience perfectly to our wishes, ensuring we felt heard and completely taken care of. The off-road adventure was absolutely breathtaking, offering moments we will cherish forever.

What stood out the most was how seamless and effortless the entire experience felt. James handled every detail, allowing us to relax, enjoy the stunning scenery, and simply marvel at the wonders of the Mara.

If you’re planning a safari and want a guide who is professional, knowledgeable, and passionate, James Gichina is the one. He made our dream safari come true, and we couldn’t recommend him more highly!

Thank you, James, for an awe-inspiring journey we’ll never forget! ❤️🦁

He was sosial, full of surprises, he had many friends and was kind. But he was a bit quiet sometimes, we saw many animals and he was a good driver, we think we was lucky with the driver.

Best experience ever

Francis is the number one! He has a great attitude and went above and beyond to show us all the animals. He was also very helpful to all the other guides. I’d definitely choose him again for other safaris. Yo!

Excellent value for the safari provided
5/5

Value for money was excellent, we saw all of the big 5 and the lodging provided were good. For the price paid (budget safari), the food was alright even if it was really similar for the 7 days of the safari. Our guide Kikitu was really knowledgeable and provided an excellent service.
The only negative thing was Hell's gate national Park which we was presented as being able to freely roam around the park with many interesting attractions. In reality, we had to pay extra(30 usd per person) for a local guide to see the canyons in which we walked only 15 minutes and cycle to and back from the canyon. We had hoped to go the hot springs but couldn't according to the guide for lack of time.

In recap, for the price paid, we were extremely satisfied with the safari in general and would recommend Jocky Tours to our friends and family.

absolutely incredible
5/5

Our safari experience was absolutely incredible! Everything was perfectly organized, and the landscapes and wildlife sightings were unforgettable. The real highlight was our guide, Evans — he was extremely knowledgeable, professional, and passionate about the wildlife and the environment. Thanks to Evans, we learned so much and felt truly connected to the places we visited.
I highly recommend this safari experience to anyone looking for an authentic and well-guided adventure!

5/5

My experience was fun. Mr. Johnny was excellent with the children they played with. I spied and won financially. I will never use another tour guide outside of Mr. Johny. Oh, and his Swahili is amazing.

5/5

Our driver Albert was amazing always seeming to be in the right place at the right time to ensure we managed to see so many different animals up close. My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed the few days we had at at Masai Mara and lake Nakuru. Would definitely recommend.

Vert professional, patient and with passion
5/5

The price is very reasonable and the communication response is timely. The guide Albert patiently explained to me the knowledge of various animals and local culture. He is a very good driver and can take us to the best place to watch animals. The hotel and tent are very comfortable. It was a very unforgettable experience.
