INCREDIBLE!
Mattaw Safaris gave us the most excellent experience with our group of 50! Every detail went so smoothly, down to the food, hotel accommodations, and overall experience navigating such a large group. Bud is amazing, we we will be back for sure! :) Thanks again for the unforgettable time!

I wouldn't safari with anyone else!
My Mattaw Safaris experience was perfect from start to finish and I'd recommend them to anyone. And it's icing on the cake to know the proceeds go toward such a good cause!

It was life changing and unforgettable!!
This was very well planned by the kindest and most fun people out there. I could tell their only goal was to make sure we felt that our needs and desires were their number one priority. The guides were fun,kind,knowledgeable and patient with us and the vehicles were clean and could drive over any terrain we encountered.

An amazing experience, going above and beyond to help complete something off our bucket list!!!!
From the initial contact for pricing, Bud was timely and clear in all his communications. As a family of 4 (Mom, Dad, and boy/girl twins 12yrs old) we had some unique requirements. Bud was understanding and help us through the entire process from start to finish. We were blessed to have two drivers ( Charles and Kevin) both were amazing guides and kept all of us entertained while educating us on Kenya and the animals we were seeing. We got to see the Big 5 !! as well as the "Special 5" completing an item from our family bucket list.
We can not speak kindly enough about Bud, Kevin, and Charles, they made us feel like family and we were proud to help support Bud in his other passion.
An example of them going above and beyond is; when we returned back home we discovered that my daughter left her camera in one of the seat pockets of the Land Cruiser (which was lovely and it was so nice to be able to be in the same vehicle every day).
I sent a quick Whatapp to Bud and Kevin who located the camera and had it shipped to us via DHL within a day!!!
We would unconditionally recommend Bud and Mattaw Safaris to anyone looking for an amazing and impactful Kenyan Safari!!!!

Amazing safari
I can only strongly recommend Mattaw safari :
I did a 3 days safari in Masai Mara end of December and everything was great. Despite my very last minute demand and quite complicated weather conditions (heavy rains not normal for the season), Bud was able to organize a fantastic trip. He was very reactive and responsive. In addition, he provided very good advice to adapt my project to weather conditions, which was absolutely not the case of other safari operators, which, by the way, were far more expensive for the same level of sercice. The land cruiser we used, with Charles, my guide, as its driver, enabled us to go where vans were stucked in the mud. Charles did everything he could for me to have a fantastic time. I saw cheetas (2 times!), lions, many girafes and lots of elephants. Landscape and light were wonderful. Thanks to both of you for the beautiful memories !

The best experience I’ve ever had
Mattaw Safaris is literally the BEST in the business!!!! If I could give them 100 stars I would. They helped us find all the animals, even the black rhinos! They didn’t even let the mud, rain, and very deep puddles stop them from showing us around the Mara. HIGHLY recommend mattaw safaris.

It was an unforgettable experience, with the best tour guides!
Every thing worked out perfectly! Mattaw Safaris exceeded my expectations! While on the tour they were so patient with us when we wanted to take a picture. When we had any questions they were helpful to answer. Seeing a lot of animals up close in the wild can sometimes feel intimidating, but with Mattaw Safaris I also felt very safe.
