Excellent holiday to Uganda
Rating:

For years on top of our list, visiting the Gorillas in their natural habitat. But the only problem, we cant go on a trip longer than a week. Matoke tours perfectly understood our problem and made a custom holiday for us.
With just a few keywords, Chimps, Gorillas and Nagamba Island, they made a beautifull trip for us. Before we left we received all the information and our schedule for the week. ... Read more On the airport our driver was waiting for us and took us to our overnight stay just 10 minutes from the airport.
A perfect trip with great accomodations, lovely staff and good food. The Chimp and Gorillas gives you goosebumps allover. A perfect gift on our daytrip to the gorillas we've met 2 groups of gorillas. It's incredible to be so cloose to this beautifull animals. Also we see lot's of other wildlife.
We had the most lovely time in Uganda and recommend everybody to go and see for themselfs.
Thanks to Matoke Tours a once in a lifetime journey.

Went to Uganda with Matoke, 10 day tour. Wim provided many details during the planning of the trip regarding travel times (very difficult without local knowledge), camp and food accommodations, and activities. I was able to tailor the whole trip to my desires, and everything went beautifully. My guide was Musa, a long time guide, with lots of local insight to the culture, landscape, flora and faun ...

Our schedule included many long days, and Musa endured them all with a smile. I would not hesitate to recommend Matoke to anyone considering African travel, and would ask for Musa specifically if I return to the area.

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.

Great safari with Matoke Tours
Rating:

In February we made with Matoke Tours / Easy travel a 15 days trip to Northern Tanzania. We visited Tarangire, Serengeti and the Ngorongoro Crater. It was really fantastic! We have seen a lot of migration, many lions, cheetah’s, kills, birth of a zebra, black rhino’s and so much more.

Everything was perfectly organized. The accommodations and the pace at which we traveled were perfect.

C ... Read moreompliments for our guide Benedict. He discovered with his "eagle" eyes animals we barely could find with binoculars. A great guide and driver. He knew to steer the car always so that you had a perfect position for filming and photography. We had told him at the beginning we have been several times in Africa and knew a lot about the wildlife. That he picked up very well and gave us no standard but the more specific information, so we learned more.
All this means that we can look back on a great time.
Benedict, Matoke Tours and Easy Travel thank you for this wonderful experience!

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!

Ouganda will be in my heart forever thanks to Matoke Tour
Rating:

Well having just spent 3 weeks in Ouganda, I must say it has been BEYOND my expectations and Matoke tour has definitely something to do with that feeling.
We visited with their recommandations all the possible highlights, staying in the most beautiful places nature wise , it was a great mix of safari, roads used by very few tourists, boat safaris, Sippi falls, Nile rafting, Kibale forest with t ... Read morehe chimpanzes, Mutanda Lake and the gorilla tracking. We went round the country in a really cool 4x4 and the driver was very safe on the sometimes very bumpy and difficult roads. His service was perfect! Always on time, very friendly and fun and making contact with the locals really eased the relationship to people. Matoke could even organise us to visit the secluded far North tribe of the Karamanjong which was A highlight.
We could relay on Matoke tour at every moment, the head office was always there for questions or details to sort along the trip.
We had the best conditions to visit Ouganda , because we felt they love to share their enthusiasm and love about Ouganda. So I can only recommend Matoke highly. Thanks to the head manager Vim and our driver Franck !!

Overall, it was great, and our guide, Dan, was wonderful. The vehicle was a bit old though.

We were given a replacement vehicle with working seat belts, but it was pretty old, and struggled up some hills. You could use newer vehicles!

A lifetime experience
Rating:

We had one of the best times of our life in Uganda.
We met mountain gorillas and chimpanzee face to face and saw all the other animals on land and in water.
The perfect experience is not only due to the magnificient nature and wildlife. The Matoke team planned and organised just a perfect tour for us and our driver and guide Antoli from Matoke Tours is an outstanding man. He is very competent, ... Read more friendly and customer oriented. A big thank you to Anatoli and the Matoke team.
