Abundance of beauty with a fiew tourists
5/5

I would highly recommend Matoke to anyone who want to visit Uganda.Everything was great about this trip.We visited so many beautifull places in a confortable and reliable 4x4.The accomodations were first class and the food exellent.I have really appreciated the way Matoke is involved in a responsible tourism wich generate greater economic benefits for local people.During the three weeks of our trip i saw manytimes how Matoke is culturaly sensitive and encourages respect between tourist and host trying to build a local pride and confidence.I met a reliable team very proffessional with a lot of knowledge about wildlife.(Thanks Wim for your explanation about butterflies)Our guide Frank was very ponctual with a safe driving and a great sense oh humor.I had an unforgettable experience in Uganda.The amazing stillness of the lake Mutanda,the beauty of the gorillas,the incredible shower in Sippi Falls,the pure joy of the Karamajong songs,the sunset at the bushcamp by Lake Albert,the sweetness of the arabica and so many other things will stay in my heart.Thank you Uganda and Matoke.

Perfect, dream vacation with all our African bucket list items!
5/5

Julia created the perfect African vacation experience for us. We just returned from a dream trip - from Cape Town highlights to a private game preserve for safaris to Zambia where we had the most amazing Victoria Falls experience! Julia listened to our hopes for the trip and produced an experience that far exceeded our expectations! This was our 4th trip to Africa, but the first time we used African Safari Company. They are head and shoulders above the rest.

Great safari experience
5/5

It was the people at Campofrio that made this trip so memorable. I dealt with the Nairobi office via email and had no trouble booking the trip I wanted and at a great value. My inquiries were always dealt with in a timely and friendly manner. The guide and driver were terrific!! We were often the first on the scene to view wildlife. More importantly they shared their knowledge and appreciation of the surroundings and imparted a sense of joy to the adventure. The accommodations were first rate. I would highly recommend Campofrio to anyone interested in going on a safari.

Robert Is the best!
5/5

Robert of karibu safaris in kenya thought of everything, he met us with safari program,wifi gadget and a mobile phone with a kenyan network just in case we had any problme we could reach him quick. Then he took us to a forex exchange so we could change money to the local currency, and led us in the safari van out of town to our first destination. I recommend him highly to anyone visiting kenya. My only regret is not spending enough time in this adventurous and friendly country we were on transit from Tanzania conference meeting heading back home.

Swift Communication and professional service
5/5

I and my wife would like to thank Swift Travel for making our 50th anniversary safari trip to Kenya such a memorable one. The responsiveness, professionalism and friendliness have been exceptional and I have already begun recommending you and Swift Travel to my friends and colleagues.

From comfortable safari jeep, spot on accommodation and superb guide, everything was just perfect. Our tour was a great success, thanks to the entire group that oversaw the planning and actual execution of our safari, we appreciated their work and how thoroughly reliable and meticulous they were.

I would thoroughly recommend Swift Travel and Tour Management to anyone looking for a great time in Kenya.

Matoke, the best start for excellent safari's
5/5

In 2008 we made our first trip with Matoke. This trip went to Uganda and Rwanda. The trip was great handled by Matoke so we decided to go again with Matoke. This time the trip went to South-Tanzania. Also this trip was fantastic and well looked after by Matoke. Thanks to our driver Adrian we have made great safari's. In Ruaha we were lucky to witness a kill by nine lions. We have been watching for more than four hours how the buffalo was eaten by the lions. It was like being in a movie. Usually you make a game drive in the early morning and late afternoon but at Matoke the game drive takes as long as you want. We were the whole day on a game drive and therefore we have spotted lots of wildlife. I can recommend Matoke to anyone. Everything is fantastic arranged. The drivers are very knowledgeable and the office staff take into account all your wishes.

A Namibian Adventure
5/5

Wow - as usual any trip with Anthony is going to be an exciting adventure and Namibia far exceeded my expectations. I have travelled with Anthony over several years in various African countries and I would not imagine having a more competent , professional and confidence inspiring leader. He is also great fun! I know that behind the scenes there is to be a lot of work preparing for any trip but despite the unpredictable the organisation was well tailored to the circumstances and I would not hesitate - in fact going further - I cannot see myself using another organisation for any trips in Africa. In these days of careful spending I can say that every single cent is worth it on one of these adventures with African Adventure Safaris. Exciting stuff and I cannot wait to go out with these guys again.

5/5

This is second time used a Jocky Tours.
Always they pick up me at airport at on time and tour cost is cheap.
At safari, almost driver is kind and friendly, they do best to find a animal.
If you can use this company, you can spend good time in Kenya.

Swift in communication, superb service
5/5

We have just completed a wonderful trip in Kenya. We had booked this company following glowing reviews it got online and I would say that I am very glad I did. Being two ladies my mum and me, I wanted a company were we would feel safe and secure as this was our first time travel to Africa and we knew little about the country. I am pleased to say we had the best service before the trip and during.
I had sent a email originally outlining what I wanted to see and how long I had to see everything. Peter was excellent in advising me and the numerous emails I sent were swiftly responded to.

Our flight was arriving early in the morning (3.30 a.m.) and upon arrival our driver Joseph met us. Our first impression already gave us assurances and we felt in very good hands and that feeling never left through out the entire trip. Joseph went above and beyond to transport us, guide us and look after us. He was always on time and polite. His vast knowledge enabled us see almost all we wished for, we couldn't have asked for a better driver. He gave us extended game drives sometimes out of the itinerary and we soon realized he was out to have us enjoy our trip as much as we could.

If you are lucky like us to visit Africa, use Swift Travel and Tour management and ask Joseph, the hawk-eyed driver to be your guide.

I would definitely recommend this company for their professional work and value for money. I hope to be returning for another adventure to Kenya and probably Tanzania next summer and will be sure to book with them.
