Overall, it was great, and our guide, Dan, was wonderful. The vehicle was a bit old though.
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. Roads are dangerous in Uganda, and I considered this a serious lapse. 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!

good safari with the family
For booking very attentive and client friendly treatment. during the trip a reliable and safe car, with a driver who was driving proper and carefull. during safary a very experienced driver with lots of knowledge about the park and the animals. Driver was next to that good in checking program, cross checking interest of the group. All in all a good time of fun with the family
Wonderful driver guide led a great experience
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 !
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.

We got everything as specified in their programme. Very good guide/driver.
Sipi Falls, Murchison Falls NP, Kibale Forest, Queen Elisabeth NP, Bwindi.
Visit to local projects is also very interesting.

Very nice trip!
We had a lot of expectations about the trip (and all were fulfilled pretty nice) and about the accommodation but there were some troubles in two lodges, but Matoke Tours fixed them well.
We have a very good and professional guide and driver!
Good organized 13-day private safari
We enjoyed our stay in Uganda - thank you very much for the part you contributed to the experience.
With Albert Henry we had a very friendly and reliable driver and guide. Especially impressive his knowledge about birds.
The Gorilla Trekking was an absolute highlight but also the other places impressed with the variety of landscapes and wildlife.
The lodges and hotels you suggested / provided were mostly a good choice:
Especially to mention Mihingo and Kyaninga Lodge which were among the nicest places we have been in Africa.
The only a little disappointing place was Paraa Lodge where we missed privacy and atmosphere (to big with negative side effects - especially in high season).

Great and unforgettable Uganda trip with Matoke
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!
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.
