We are a family with 3 children, aged 4, 6 and 8, and booked our 4 day camping-safari to Serengeti and Ngorongo national parks + 3 extra days in Arusha with Matoke Tours. Matoke Tours was very quick in sending us a program and responding to our questions. Also prices were very reasonable! All communication was perfect.
On arrival at Kilimanjaro Airport we were picked up by our guide who brought u ... Read mores to our lodge in Arusha for 1 night.
After that we did a 4 days/3 nights basic camping safari to Serengeti and Ngorongoro. Everything was organised perfectly!! We had a great very experienced guide who really did his utmost best to find every animal in the parks. The children were very excited and without the guide we would not have seen at least half off all the different animals we have seen now.
Our accommodation was in tents on the public camp sites. The cook and camping-assistant always arrived with a separate feeding-car before us on the camp sites, so when we arrived the tents were set and the food prepared! Tents, sleeping gear, tables and chairs, all were very good quality. We could actually not call this basic camping :-)
After the safari we stayed 3 nights in Arusha in the Ilboru Safari Lodge which is excellent for a family!
Matoke Tours all organised it perfectly and also followed up with us after the safari if we had any feedback on the trip.
We would definitively book with Matoke Tours again and can highly recommend it.

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!

When you book a safari tour in Uganda/Tanzania with Matoke Tours you can count on their enthousiastic employees who are very professional and offer a personal service. We had very knowledgeable local guides, both in Uganda as in Tanzania. They had great eyes for spotting animals and were very helpfull to accomodate our wishes.
Uganda offers beautiful landscapes which are very green with a varied ... Read more wildlife and friendly people. Meeting the gorillas was an exceptional expierence. Tanzania is the safari country par excellence. Never in 1 trip we were able to see the Big 5, but this time we did! And we saw so much more, we were really impressed.
The lodges were good, clean and lovely located. We also enjoyed the food, which was excellent.
If you are interested in going to Uganda/Tanzania, I would highly recommend booking with Matoke Tours.

The service was very good. Nice lodges and the place from the lodges was perfect. Nice views. Good food.
We have a very nice and a good tourleader. Matoke Tours is a good touroperator.
Thanks for this nice trip.

The chimp and the Gorilla tracking were the most amazing and well organised part of the tour. It was so beautiful to see this big friendly Animals in their well protected natural habitat. The Guide and Driver was well trained and fulfilled us every wish. We can recommend The Lake Mutanda Lodge as it was such a beautiful accommodation! Many Thanks MATOKE TOURS for this unique trip!!

Our driver and guide was Anatoli - he was perfect! He drove us from Entebbe - Kampala - Kibale forest - Queen Elizabeth NP - Lake Mutanda and back to Kampala. It was one of the best journeys in my lifetime! Everything was very well organized by Matoke Tours! Anatoli our driver was always patient and very friendly, he told us a lot about the country, interesting and sometimes funny stories about bi ... Read morerds and animals and life in Uganda. He knew the best places in order to take stunning pictures, he helped me with my broken shoes, organized the best rangers for our safari trips and was always on time. It was really good to be with him which I think is important as we have spent a lot of time with him together in the car. We really enjoyed all of our lodges, chosen by Matoke Tours. They were all clean, had good bathrooms (for example the outside shower under the amazing stars in QE), always with wonderful views like over Lake Mutanda, or the jungle with the sound of the monkeys, or over the canal at Queen Elizabeth´s, with eagles and the sound of the hippos etc. Uganda is so beautiful, so green, there are few cars on the street, the people are so friendly!!! And i am very impressed by this great jungles. We saw a lot of animals, gorillas, chimps, a lion, a big group of 8 female lions - one of them was even hunting a kob, elephants, a lot of baboons next to the streets, hippos - one even passed close to the restaurant in the evening while we were sitting there :-), so many birds and warthogs.. So many..! For me the best stop was Lake Mutanda, it´s such a nice place, we were able to swim, walk around, we did a canoe tour and we spend some more days just for relaxing. The food was always very good, everywhere they asked us if we have any special requests - for me as a vegetarian very important and we have enjoyed every dish. For sure we will visit Uganda again for further tours with Matoke Tours!! They really did a perfect job!

A very friendly driver who had an answer to every question about country, people and animals. Memorable experiences in Kibala, Queen Elizabeth and Biwindi National Park. And fantastic lodges!!! The whole journey a dream. Thank you Matuke Tours!!!!

We have enjoyed our 2 weeks trip through Uganda from the beginning to the end - it was perfect! We went home with memories of unforgetable moments and impressions!

From the beginning very well and personally organised by Nicole.
When we arrived, we met our travel companions from holland and our tour guide Bella and the two drivers Fred and Richard. All of them where very nice people. We booked a 15 days tour through Uganda and everything was well arranged. Bella was a perfect tour leader, so we only have to enjoy the views, experiences, animals, people and ... Read morelandscapes. We recommend this trip to everyone, because Uganda is the most beautiful country we've ever seen. Bella informed and helped us very well, so we've learned a lot of the religion, the political situation and the way of life of the Ugandan people. It was a trip with lots of adventure and the Gorillatracking as highlight. If you are planning a tour through Uganda, please contact Matoke tours and you will have an incredible journey.

Thanks a lot Matoke Tours, our tour in Tanzania was SUPER!!! we had to do nothing but enjoying, everything was excelent organised.
Our guide was the best ever, thanks Lawrence.
We have seen everything you can dream, 99 lions for instance, nobody can believe this, but it is true.
3 leopards, 3 cheeta's, wild dogs, you name it. A lion hunting on a warthog ( and he got it ), fighting elephants, ... Read morefightings grirafs, sometimes we had the suspicion, our guide was telepathic, he could see what would happen, almost every time.
Ofcourse we have seen the big 5, we are travelling every year to Africa, but this was the best, we have never seen this, it was the best organised the most exciting travel ever,I don't have words enough to discribe !!!!!!!!!!
