Excellent
The experience lived up to our expectation, and Dan was informed and flexible to our needs. The accommodations were first class, food good, and we saw all the animals we had hoped to. The customized trip to a Water School project in Nebbi District went according to plan, and was a lot of fun.
The only criticism was that the original vehicle we were given had seat belts which didn't work.

We will think of this outstanding and very successful safari for the rest of our lifes.
We were greeted by our excellent driver Confidence, who went out of his way to please us. A very safe driver, too. The accommodation and food were very good and the game drives very successful. We did see the chimpanzees and the gorillas both after one hour walk. Everything was well organized and the day drives not too long. We can only recommend Matoke tours!

good safari with the family
For booking very attentive and client friendly treatment. during the trip a reliable and safe car, with a driver who was driving proper and carefull. during safary a very experienced driver with lots of knowledge about the park and the animals. Driver was next to that good in checking program, cross checking interest of the group. All in all a good time of fun with the family

Matoke tours exceeded mine and my family's expectations.
As my studies had brought me to Uganda to do an internship, my family didn't want to miss out on this opportunity to travel to a new country, explore a new culture and of course visit me. The agreement was to explore the best of western Uganda, so it was up to me to find an affordable tour that also covered the highlights of that part of the country. After having searched the internet for tour companies, I stumbled across the Matoke budget tour. It sounded pretty exciting including chimpanzee tracking, viewing of the tree climbing lions, gorilla tracking, bush walk and many other activities. But as a student with limited budget and a passionate backpacker, I wasn't sure if this was the best deal I could find and at the same time slightly skeptical when it comes to online booking (because you never know who is on the other side). So I went ahead and tried to organize the trip myself, only to realize that it was a time consuming, complicated process with no promise on saving any costs. Having come to that realization I decided to book with Matoke tours and have come to the conclusion that every penny is well spent. The communication with the staff was reliable, I always got a quick response and the safari tour outstanding. Not only were the activities exciting, even the accommodation made our trip exceptional. I am glad to have booked through Matoke tours and am glad to recommend it.

Above expectations
I never heard of this organisation, but I had a good feeling after I went to their office in the Netherlands. We had a great trip in Rwanda and Uganda. The driver was very nice and knew so much about the country and the animals. He arranged everything for us. The hotels and the food were good. I went with other organisations to other countries in Africa, but I would recommend this organisation!

Fantastic!!
Thank you for a wonderful holiday. You gave us an incredible experience, brilliant service and really good value for money. I would highly recommend Matoke to anyone for safaris and primate tracking in Uganda.

Very well organised, good price-value level
We (couple of 60 and 54 years) booked a 20 days private tour with Matoke, including Ziwa Rhino S., Murchinson Falls NP, Kibale NP with Chimps Tracking, 4 days Rwenzori Trekking, Gorilla Tracking in Bwindi Impenetrable NP, Vulcano Hike on Mt. Muhavura in Mgahinga NP, Mburo Lake NP and Mabambwa Swamp.
Our Driver-Guide was very knogledgable, friendly and a safe driver. The car was very reliable and we didn't even have a puncture. The chosen accomodations were very good, the food sometimes even excellent.
We had a wonderful trip which fulfilled our expectations.

A travel agency to remember! Everything ok accomodation, transport, food, guiding.....
We made a trip in Uganda and Tanzania with Matoke tours a tour operator from the netherlands. There isn't a thing I could say that was wrong about this trip. It was an amazing holiday: Uganda was so beautiful and untouched by tourism. The gorilla's were the max but also the country itself had much of beauty to offer. And also the guide big Sam was amazing. We learned a lot of the country from him. The accomodations were very beautiful and the locations well choosen. The food was always very tastfull, and there was always an alternative for the vegetariers of our group.
In Tanzania they worked together with Easy Travel, they did also a good job, plenty of food, good driver and guide, beautiful accomodations even in the middle of the Serengeti in very luxurious tents amids the lions and other wildlife
We saw the big 5 and the 5 ugly ones, and so many more. And at the end our journey ended in Zanzibar, where we could choose our location and Fumba Beach was really a quiet and relaxing place, with amazing food.
Really a very recommended travel agency Matoke Tours with thanks to Yorinda in the Netherlands who arranged everything with a smile!!!!
Wonderful driver guide led a great experience
Our driver Caleb was a wonderful guide and went out of his way to ensure that we were comfortable and saw as much as we could: countryside, animals and points of interest. We had a great safari!
