We couldn't have made this trip happen without Matoke! Excellent itinerary for Uganda!!
5/5

Matoke was incredibly helpful for us during the safari planning phases. They responded quickly and answered all of our questions. They were also responsive while we were in the country :-)

The Uganda portion of the tour was incredible. Chimp trekking in Kibale and gorilla trekking in Bwindi were absolutely amazing. Definitely a bucket list experience for us!

The accommodations were also quite nice! We were very comfortable the entire time :-)

My experience with Matoke tours was straightforward and highly satisfactory.
5/5

We had a wonderful time. We were able to see gorillas up close and it was incredible. The lodge was beautiful and we had a really peaceful time there. The staff was incredibly friendly and accommodating as well. The flights went well too and gave us a lot of extra time to just relax and enjoy the beauty of the lodge. It truly was an unforgettable experience.

An unforgettable safari and beach holiday in Tanzania
5/5

We traveled to Tanzania with my two adult children and my daughter's boyfriend. We all really enjoyed our trip and had a wonderful holiday in Tanzania. Our guide was outstanding and did his utmost to ensure we saw everything there was to see, with excellent views always close to the action. He was also fun to be with and he got on well with all of us. The safari itself was amazing and unforgettable. Our accommodation was excellent and we especially loved the Tortillis camp which, although tented, was gloriously comfortable and exotic.

Thank you for all your hard work on our behalf and for helping to provide a once-in-a-lifetime holiday.

Memorable trip to Uganda, Rwanda and Congo!
5/5

My friend and I took a marvelous tour of close to one month to northern Uganda, Rwanda and Congo. Staff at Matoke Tours were very efficient and guides Frank and Anatoly were very knowledgeable and helpful. We chose the northern Uganda tour that included Kidepo and Murchison Falls Game Parks where we saw "the big five". Both parks were extraordinarily beautiful. Plus we went to a rhino preserve where we walked within a few feet of white rhinos. The hotels, game preserves and food were great. We ended the trip at Tchegera Island in the Congo, a grand finale!

Awesome experience
5/5

From our first enquiry until the end of our trip Matoke Tours were excellent.Lionel in the office was helpful and informative.We did a 12 day tour including chimpanzee and gorilla trekking, everything was well organised and everywhere we stayed was delightful.The staff at all the lodges were friendly and always ready with a smile.The concern shown to my wife when she was ill was particularly touching.We knew that close encounters with the chimps and gorillas would be special but we're quite unprepared for the beauty of Uganda as a country,driving through the countryside and villages with Alfred,our driver,was a unique experience.Matoke tours made our holiday a memorable and special adventure,I can't rate them highly enough.

One week individual tour Uganda - a great experience
5/5

We did a week-long tour through Queen Elizabeth NP, Bwindi NP (Gorilla tracking) and Lake Mburo NP. The camps and lodges where we stayed were all beautiful and clean, nice and helpful people. We saw all animals we wanted to see, including lions, gorillas, giraffes and the shoebill. Our tour guide Kule was the best guide we could have imagined: friendly, knowledgeable and a safe driver. Organisation by Matoke was excellent: they were very responsive and helpful during the preparation of our tour and understood immediatelly our wishes and expectations. Highly recommendable!

Great experience
5/5

Our first trip to Uganda turned out to be a wonderful experience thanks to the very good organisation through Matoke Tours. We saw them all, Shoebill, lions, leopards, buffalos, mountain gorillas, chimps, and, and, and. Our driver Richard was, beside being a very skilful and experienced driver, a walking dictionary when it came to questions about fauna and flora, about history, politics and culture regarding this wonderful country. He knew it all. A good choice of lodges and a very professional planning and organisation makes us looking forward to going back to Uganda for another exciting trip. Still lots to discover !
