Life-changing!
We cannot express adequately the extent to which we are grateful to E-Trip for this life-changing experience. Ben and Aurelie were incredible in their communications. Ben even visited us when we arrived in Arusha, and before we departed for Zanzibar (in the Airport). Our trip was custom tailored to our interests and we traveled in an amazing Safari vehicle equipped with electricity for charging our cameras and even wi-fi (when there was reception). We had a wonderful guide who was so talented, and so knowledgeable. We are glad to have some wonderful new friends. We cannot recommend them enough!

Incredible experience. What a country! What a guide!
From the start of our booking Sven was very helpful in adapting their pre existing tours to fit what we wanted to do and also changing hotels between budget and more luxurious to fit what we wanted at each place! He was very helpful with answering lots of questions we had from locations of game drives to practical information of visas and money. Our flight was delayed by 24 hours but, between Sven and our guide (Mugabi), they managed to adapt our tour to make sure we didn't miss anything. Mugabi was fantastic from start to finish, we couldn't have asked for a better guide. He gave us political and cultural information as we drove through different towns; was incredibly knowledgable about all of the animals; was very adaptable when we wanted to stay in certain places longer or go looking for other things; knew the locations where certain animals were frequently seen which made for some incredible game viewing; found us other restaurants to eat when the restaurants attached to our hotels were 'less desirable' and ensured we were happy and safe at all times! We will certainly be keeping in touch with him. I would (and already have!) definitely recommend Uganda and Matoke Tours to everyone. The country is beautiful and so diverse. In our 10 day tour we got close to the chimps and followed them for around an hour in Kibale Forest. We saw about a hundred Elephants, a pride of Lions, Hyenas with babies, Waterbuck, Ugandan Kob, Buffalo, Hippos, crocodile, Baboons, Monkeys, Flamingo, Warthog, 7 different types of Eagle, Vultures and so many other types of birds (including cranes, storks ,kingfishers) in Queen Elizabeth. Would definitely recommend the cruise along the Kazinga Channel and Simba Safari Lodge was incredible and so welcoming. The best lodge we stayed in on our trip, which was no small part down to James and his staff! We saw the tree climbing lions and Leopard in the Ishasha Sector. By the River Camp was in an incredible location but we had a few issues with water and a bats nest above our bed. We got so close to the Mountain Gorillas in Bwindi which was the most incredible experience ever. We spent an hour and a half with them, watching them eat and play. Would recommend paying a bit more for your hotel here though as our stay at the cheaper place was not so enjoyable because of poor food and not feeling particularly welcome. We then saw Giraffe, Eland, zebra, Topi, Impala and Bush buck in huge numbers in Lake Mburo and would definitely recommend doing the morning walking safari as we were in amongst a herd of zebra on their way to the watering hole. Rwakobo Rock where we stopped here was absolutely beautiful. Incredible views, excellent facilities and very welcoming staff. We chose to just have the basic truck and not pay for the upgrade and with their only being 4 of us in a 7 seater it meant there was space for all of us to stand up through the lifted roof. Overall, it was a once in a lifetime trip that none of us will ever forget! Thank you Matoke, Thank you Sven, thank you Mugabi and thank you Uganda!!

Gorgeous: What a wonderfull experience.
This Trip (in total 17 days) was the best of all our Safaris in different countries of Africa. Rwanda an Uganda are beautiful and lovely countries. We learned so much about the flora, fauna and people... Our guide Farouk was priceless.

A happy time with Migada Adventures!
We created a beautiful memory together, our tour guide Kombo and our driver Santos are both nice! Santos can always found us the animals, amazing! They both care about us! Mike, the CEO invited us to a traditional African meal, delicious! In fact, I've been framing about Tanzania and Kombo and Santos since I left. Miss all of them already! I'm actually planning to be in Tanzania again with Migada Adventures, see you soon guys!

Everything went as smoothly as possible
I normally do everything myself, but knowing that inside knowledge in Africa is very helpful, this time I went with an agent to set up a few safaris in South Africa. Marianne Birrell set everything up for me better than I could have done it myself after weeks of research. She arranged the flight to and from Hoedspruit, the transfers between camps, and the camp reservations themselves. She did an excellent job choosing service providers, every one of which was top-notch. I'll recommend her without hesitation to anyone going on a safari in East Africa.

Excellent Safari
I had a great time on this safari. Our guide was amazing during our safari. He was very accommodating with driving around to see the animals that we wanted to see. He was also extremely knowledgable about each of the animals and gave us little tidbits on each. He even quizzed us on the topics for fun! I would highly recommend this company for any safari in Maasi Mara.
