Reviews like this make us so proud of what we’ve built at Matson & Ridley Safaris, continuing to create magical journeys in Africa over and over again for our guests. Thank you Kevin and Sue!

“Another fantastic safari organised by Tammie and her team. Their knowledge of Africa and wildlife ensure with limited information of what you want to see and times of year you will end up with a tailor made safari that won’t disappoint. Every year we go we think it can’t be as good a last year but with the extensive range of camps on offer we see something different and special. The use of Eco friendly camps that put back into local communities and wildlife conservation ensure Africa can be enjoyed by many people for years to come.” Kevin, Dubai

Every one counts.

With only 20,000-25,000 lions left in the wild in Africa today, every one born is a blessing.

Working with local communities to protect lion habitat is absolutely key to their future survival.

When you visit the vital lion areas such as the Serengeti-Mara ecosystem or the Okavango Delta, talk to your guide about how your safari is making a difference.

Happy World Environment Day

On this World Environment Day, take a moment to reflect on how much we as a species benefit from nature. It provides our food and water, shelter, clean air, medicines, our physical and mental health. We need nature to survive. Having nature around us is one of the greatest sources of simple joy. What small actions can you take today to ensure nature is preserved for future generations?

What a thrill to spend some time with the amazing all-women team at Dunia Camp by in the Serengeti. I can’t wait to bring my group here next year!

Thank you Bev for your wonderful review of Matson & Ridley Safaris. We loved having you and Paul on safari with us in Botswana’s Okavango Delta! “We had high expectations for our trip but our trip far exceeded our expectations! We saw countless animals of seemingly endless variety up close everytime we went out from camp. Every day we would go out looking for a particular animal and always find it. The camps where we stayed were wonderful and the food was excellent.”
