Everything taken care of down to the last details.
We received great assistance during an in-office consultation for our tour of Madagascar. Everything went smoothly.

Wonderfull 2-weeks trip through Uganda
We booked our trip in the Netherlands with Kazuri Safaris who uses the service of Matoke Tours in Uganda. The trip was very well organized. Our guide, Trevor, took good care of us during the entire trip. His driving skills are excellent. Thanks to his knowledge, we learned a lot about the wildlife, culture and nature in Uganda. He surprised us many times with nice picknicks and even a celebration cake. Since all was taken care of, we had nothing to worry about and could fully enjoy our time in Uganda.

Great Tanzania Safari
Great Tanzania Safari
Hello,
My family and I had a very special week with our excellent driver named Elias in the north of Tanzania! Our trip and safari was really special, especially because of our driver/guide, that’s why I would recommend him. He was patient, nice and always happy. That’s why we called him Mr. Happy-Happy. He was special, and we’ll never forget this amazing trip with him, especially the great stories told by our driver and of cours the nature and the particular animals!

Excellent flexible and committed travel organization
Our guide in Uganda, Robbert, his care and passion made this trip magical.
Magical? Yes! Magical? Yes. Uganda, if you want to see all of Africa in one country, Uganda is the place to be. It is true that every African country has his or her specialties. But Robbert let us experience: Uganda has it all.
A trip taken care of down to the last detail. Everything you can imagine from a Safari included it and more. Seeing nature in the amount of different animals in their natural habitat is beautiful. The beauty in the waterfalls and the vegetation, proverbially as if you imagine yourself in the Garden of Eden. But the requests that were excellently responded to to be able to have local contact with the Ugandans through gatherings such as churches and a real wedding party crasher made it really magical.
Robbert, your care and passion made this journey truly magical. From the very beginning, Matoke Tours impressed us with their flexibility, reliability, and personal approach. Every detail was thoughtfully arranged, and communication was smooth throughout. We felt supported and well taken care of at every step. This wasn’t just a trip—it was an unforgettable experience crafted with heart. Highly recommended!

Unforgettable Uganda and excellent tour guides
Our journey through Uganda was a revelation. What an incredibly diverse and beautiful country! From the endless green landscapes and misty forests to the vibrant villages and warm-hearted people — Uganda touched us deeply.
The wildlife was, of course, breathtaking: meeting the mountain gorillas and chimpanzees was an absolute highlight. But what surprised me most was the abundance of smaller life — the countless colourful birds, butterflies, and tiny creatures that make this country so alive. As someone with a special love for birds, I was truly amazed by what we saw each day.
A heartfelt thank-you goes to our two driver-guides, Geoffrey and Edwin. Geoffrey’s knowledge of birds and nature was simply outstanding — he spotted species I would never have noticed without him. Edwin, too, shared his impressive understanding of the country, its landscapes and wildlife, and added a calm warmth that made every drive a pleasure. Together they showed us not only Uganda’s extraordinary nature, but also the soul of its people.
Uganda is rightly called “The Pearl of Africa.” Its beauty, diversity, and kindness make it one of the most memorable destinations we’ve ever visited — an experience I would wholeheartedly recommend to anyone.

The eight weeks could not be better
We prepared the 8 weeks trip to Madagascar together with Matoke based on our wishes (16/9 – 10/11/25). First, we travelled 5 weeks south of Tana, in self drive mode, and afterwards 3 weeks, with driver, in the North. Matoke proposed places to stay which, after checking, were confirmed. Together we fixed the excursions and dynamics. We have travelled all our life in Africa, South America, Nepal, often linked to our work in these regions, but Matoke set the bar with our Madagascar trip so high, that our standards for the future travels will be at the top. We will most probably travel again with Matoke and we are curious if they can still put the bar higher, but if they keep up with Madagascar, they will have again very satisfied clients. In 8 weeks in a country like Madagascar (which is so beautiful and where the people’s smile is like a drug) we did not have the slightest inconvenience, something that we think is statistically impossible, but Matoke made it work. ‘Chapeau’, they say in French.
