Fantastic safari experience!
We had a really fantastic five day safari with J.M. Tours. Our guide Karim was brilliant; really kind, friendly and knowledgeable. He made us all feel safe whether we were sitting with six lions by the side of the vehicle or driving up the steep and narrow road up form the Ngorongoro crater.
Everything was organised beforehand by Siima who is really friendly and helpful as well! Overall we had a perfect safari and it's all thanks to these guys! Could not recommend them more!

Amazing guide in beautiful Uganda
We had a great experience with the group and the guide at Murchison falls. The guide was really enthousiastic and because of that we enjoyed it. The daily program was various, first with the car, later with the boat and after that we hiked to the top of the Murchison falls. The nature and animals we saw were very beautiful. We will never forget it. Thanks for this amazing and unforgettable experience.

Awesome East Africa Trip
After making inquiries with a few companies, we found Matoke Tours offered trips to all the locations we were interested in. Our sales agent, Ilse, was fantastic. After hearing about the places and things we were most interested in doing, she suggested a custom 10-day itinerary for us (4 adults).
We flew into Kigali, Rwanda in order to reduce the travel time to Uganda, our first stop, to do the gorilla trek in Bwindi Impenetrable Forest. After the gorilla trek, we were taken back to Rwanda to fly to Kilimanjaro, where we would start our Safari in Tanzania. Our trip included Tarangire National Park, the Serengeti, and Ngorongoro Crater.
Guides: the rangers in Bwindi Forest, our Uganda driver, Charles, and our guide and driver, Herbert, for all our time in Tanzania, were excellent. Friendly, knowledgeable, and professional - and very good drivers on those rough African roads.
Accommodations: we chose a mid-range level of accommodation for our lodging and every single accommodation was excellent. They felt more like luxury level accommodations instead of mid-range. Our lodge and bush camp in Tarangire and the Serengeti were incredible - beautiful, comfortable, and with the most attentive staff.
Food: meals were always delicious and plentiful
There were a few small glitches early on and we really felt that Matoke, as well as the local vendors and staff providing the services, handled them gracefully and efficiently and ensured that there was no adverse impact on our enjoyment.
All of our communication with Ilse in planning the trip, making payments, keeping us updated on any changes, providing helpful information was effortless. She was always responsive, replying to emails quickly and thoroughly. Matoke also provides travelers with a packet of helpful practical information for each country visited, which was invaluable, covering everything from currency and tipping, to customs and language.
We would happily recommend booking with Matoke.

Magic
We booked 5 nights/6 days budget safari with African Travel Tours and Shabani. Very flexible arrangement and exact as we wanted with basic arrangements and tents that we were helping setting up inside the National parks in Serengeti and Ngorongoro. Also visited Tarangirie and Arusha Naional Parks, great. Good driving and guiding provided and really good food! Some adventure when back wheel spring broke on our way from Serengeti was fixed in excellent way overnight so our magic journey into Ngorongoro was not jeopardized. We were all very satisfied with arrangements!
