The best trip we ever made
The trip was very well organized. Our driver/guide was taking very good care of us, showing us the best spots, communicating with rangers and other guides to make every safari succesfull (we saw a leopard in Queen Elizabeth National Park which is really difficult!!). We had a lot to see and do in our 12 days tour and we are glad for ervery minute. In the mid time of our trip Matoke even called to ask if there is anything else they could do for us. Before our trip started we hoped to see the wildlife, especially the gorillas, but the reality was even better.

Absolutely outstanding in every way
Our experience was amazing we are a mature couple who have done quite a bit of travelling before although this was our first safari. The communications with Ilse beforehand to customise the trip for us were all timely and very helpful. We were collected promptly from our hotel and then guided expertly and knowledgably by Emanuel, first to Tarangire N.P., where we saw zebra, lions, elephants and more. The lodge was superb and the people and food were lovely. From there we went to Serengeti N. P., again with our wonderful guide who found crocodiles, a cheetah with her cubs, lions with their cubs and even 2 leopards, as well as many elephants, ostriches, buffaloes. We stayed in a lovely tented lodge right in the park where we were very well looked after. From there we went to Ngorongoro, another wonderful experience, where we saw a rhino in the distance and some hippos up close. Our final stop was Lake Manyara, a smaller park on the way back to Arusha. I cannot recommend Matoke Tours and East Travel, their partner in Tanzania, highly enough. Everything went very smoothly and all the accommodation and food was excellent. The trip far surpassed our expectations and we will certainly go with them again. Thank you so much, Matoke Tours.

Fantastic Trip
I couldn't recommend Matoke Tours enough. We had a wonderful time with a friendly guide and a personalised itinerary. We had so much fun and saw a huge number of animals. It really was the perfect trip and exceeded both of our expectations. Thank you so much!

Best trip of my life!
Matoke Tours are a great operator - I cannot recommend them enough. I had a fantastic 11 day custom trip with my girlfriend through Uganda and Rwanda. Our driver and guide was extremely knowledgable, helpful and friendly. It was the best holiday I have ever been on and I will never forget seeing the Mountain Gorillas. Murchison Falls National park was a highlight in Uganda - the scenery and wildlife was amazing. Matoke were very helpful prior to the tour - helping me to get the perfect itinerary and also on the ground. I will be using them again!

Very enthusiastic team, well organised
The team, guide & drivers, are very enthusiastic, helpfull and very good in their job. They help you with all your questions and do their utmost to fulfill your wishes. They drove safe and were superb in the safari's, which were excellent, we even went 2x a day, making the most out of it! Service is great, they also organised for our lost luggage to be sent up to Jinja, where we stayed at the time it was found. I can recommend them to organise your trip to Uganda !

so much more than we expected! professional, friendly and competent!
We had a wonderful vacation. Our luggage didn't arrive, and while Brussels Airlines and the Airport in Uganda were completely unhelpful, Matoke's Sven organized a driver who followed us with our suitecases through the country. This really saved our vacation. The drivers and guides were all superfriendly, flexible and helpful. From the beginning at home to the return everything was perfectly organized to really reasonable prizes. Would do it immediatly again with Matoke and can only recommend them. Bravo!
