Personalised tour to Lake Bunyonyi, Uganda.
4/5

Matoke Tours were very helpful with our online booking of our tour and did all they could to meet our specifications. Our drIver Dan was excellent and drove us in a Toyota Landcruiser which coped well with some difficult roads. He was very friendly and good to talk to on the long journeys we took.
Once at Lake Bunyonyi we didn't need him much as we spent most of our time on the lake visiting Sharp's Island and other islands where we had gone on a family holiday in 1958 when we grew up near Kampala. However, he was very helpful when my brother decided to go gorilla trekking and obtained a licence at short notice and drove to the area and back. Many thanks for an unforgettable trip!

THE communications was very nice and friendly. Good car and friendly driver . He had a lot of knowledge about Uganda . Also about animals . In the Queen Elisabeth Parc was no ranger disposible, but our driver told us many interesting things . We stayed in een perfect Lodge ( Papaya Lodge ) And also our stay in the Bush Lodge was very nice.
We enjoyed our chimp walk. Good guides and many chimpansees!!
We had a wonderful time.

4/5

we were only for a short trip with them travelling after 4 weeks working in a small hospital in Rakai. the driver from Matoke picked us up at the beautiful Villa Katwe in Massaka and then we travelled at the direction of the border with Congo and Ruanda....At the beautiful Lake Mutanda we stayed in Mutanda Lodge and it seems to be the end of the world... Beautiful view on the Volcanos and the lake and after two days rest we were taken by the driver of Matoke at the gorilla tracking....Wonderful and once in a life time experience.....Thank you Matoke tours!!

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!

No specific safari tour booked, but very happy with the tours experienced with Matoke !
4/5

Although we didn't book an specific safari, but a round trip in Uganda, Matoke took us through several National Parks where we tracked gorillas and chimps, took part in an evening game safari, experienced safaris during the day with our small busses and also made some boot safaris on the Nile and several lakes! Well organized and wide enough to experience most wildlife in Uganda.

Great and unforgettable Uganda trip with Matoke
4/5

Had a 21 day trip to explore en enjoy Uganda. What a beautiful country! Matoke organized everything great. From the start at home untill even after coming back from the trip. Accomodations are as expected and booked. Next time please no bush elephants so the chimps will come down out of the trees :-)
Great and careful driver, thanks Kenneth! And enthousiastic en involved guide, thanks Bram!

4/5

The service was good, everything was pretty much as promised, but I would have expected a more intensive activity during the day (more/longer game drives). I would use them again, but you you make very clear in advance what activity will be provided as a minimum.
