Birding tour focusing on endemics.
We were a group of 6 and arranged this specialist birding tour with Eco-Specialist Tours.
The trip was a great success and we saw lots of great birds- including our 3 big targets- Shoebill, Green-breasted Pitta and African Green Broadbill.
Communications were good before the trip and everything went to plan- at a reasonable price.
Ibrahim Senfuma was our guide and he is a good guide and a really nice guy. Robert organised the trip and joined us for the first few days. We had a driver who replaced Robert after a couple of days.

Great experience!
At the beginning we were not sure on the safari but our booking was handled by Robert and he is very efficient and always available. I wonder if he sleeps? As anytime I sent him my query he would immediately reply even if was middle of the night. He made it so simple that everything for us went hassle free. Also I would like to mention our guide Joseph who made all the best possible efforts to find perfect sighting spots and the incredible experience we had watching the great migration. All the efforts put by both these guys are really commendable and I would highly recommend them.
Thanks again

Review about Lake Nakuru National Park by May Chen
1. Quite few flamingos in Nakuru.
2. The road condition to get there from Masai Mara needs significant improvement, please have more road like the one China company built.

Review about Lake Manyara National Park by Cecilia
very nice park but it is quite difficult to see the lions because they hide in the bush. I saw a lot of baboons, elephants and birds.

Amazing Safari with an amazing guide and people!
We had a wonderful Safari and a funny Time with our guide 'Good Luck'! Everything was very well organized from the pick up from the airport until the getting back to the airport! All drivers were in time!
We also had luck with the other Safaritourists in our car, cause they all were almost as old we are - about 24- and so we had a lot of fun with them in our car and they also became friends!
Except the mix of Lodge guests - me and my girlfriend were the only ones- and camping guests in our car was a bit complicated and not that good organized, cause our driver had to drive us to the Lodges which were far away to the Camping and so mostly we arrived late in the lodges or camping!But think you will do it better next time! ;)
Although we enjoyed the 4- Day Safari Tour through Tarangire, Ngorongoro Crater and Serengeti a lot and have seen almost all of the Big Five - except a Rhino- but that didn´t matter!We had one of the Best Times ever there!
Best Regards

Great trip to Nyiragongo Volcano!
I was looking up tours company to Virunga/Nyiragongo National Park and found that Matoke tours is both the most affordable tour company and the most well-known in Uganda. The set-up and payments went smoothly online with no problem and the staff was very responsive and accommodating to our needs. They also helped us arrange visa at no extra cost and saved us the hassle. As a plus, we booked our flight to Kigali early and was able to tour the city and the Genocide memorial for free (we had the driver to ourselves the whole day). Our driver/tour guide in Rwanda was very nice and knowledgeable. The accommodation in Gisenyi (the night before the trek) was very high-end and comfortable (I could've stayed there for a week!). The rest of the tour was handled by Virunga National Park staff which also went very smoothly and safe (it was a big group of about 24 hikers). The view of the biggest volcano lake is breathtaking and unlike anything I've seen before! There was one or two hiccups where we had to pay for porters and a short transport to the DRC border (which we thought was included). But Matoke tours soon reached out to us, apologized, and reimbursed us. All in all, an unforgettable journey that went fairly smoothly. The price is not that much different than if you planned it yourself but everything is taken care of (trust me the price on Virunga National Park's official website is deceiving). Would definitely recommend, thanks Matoke
