Awesome!!!!!
The staff were very nice from the beginning. They answered all the questions we had before we joined the 3 days Murchison falls safari tour. During our tour, our driver and tour guide was a great person. Our tour turned so much fun because of him. We are sure to go to other safari tours with them again.

Fabulous tour of primates in Uganda
I recently went on a week-long tour of Uganda primarily to see the monkeys and apes in that country. Everything worked out as expected, each hike was successful in finding the animals, the rangers were all familiar with their area and well-prepared to give information to tourists, and there was time after each hike to rest and relax. The driver/guide, Frank, was always on time, clearly knew his way around the country, was able to point out sights as we travelled, and at least once went out of his way to see a sight we would have missed otherwise. The accommodations were as expected or better at every stop. Even the weather co-operated - it was rainy season but it never rained during a hike.
It was a great trip and I'm so glad I went.
One recommendation: if you are interested in chimpanzees, be sure to book the five-hour habituation hike at Kibale which let's you see so much more of their life than the usual one-hour time allowed.

Very professional company, excellent safari experience
They are very responsive to requests for information. We went back and forth quite a bit refining our itinerary and they were very helpful in finding the right fit for us.
The safari itself was well planned and conducted. We had a comfortable car with a good driver to take us around. Everything went as planned because the logistics of all the tours and overnight locations were figured out by them. The cost of the safari is substantial but it includes accommodation, meals, car and driver, which also seems reasonable.
The safari itself was fantastic. All the trips were well guided by professionals and the wildlife was fantastic. It is amazing that they can pretty much guarantee that you'll get the experience you're looking for-- tracking chimps and gorillas, seeing lions in trees, etc. The best experience is the gorilla tracking... it's a challenging hike but the landscape and the gorillas make up for it.
The countryside drives to and from the destinations are also excellent. We drove from Entebbe to Kibale (for chimps), then QENP (for savanna safari) and then to Bwindi (for gorillas). It's a good way to see the landscape changes and the life of the locals. Overall, the safari was excellent.

Murchison Falls
Just a note of thanks to Kombi Tours for the experience of a lifetime!! Our small group all agree Murchison Falls was the highlight of our trip to Uganda! From the very first communication with you, to the drop off back in Entebbe from Jonathan, the trip was fantastic. We could not stop bragging to the people that joined us for the rest of our time in Uganda how wonderful our trip to Murchison Falls was and how much we loved spending time with Jonathan. Everything that was arranged through your company went as planned. We couldn't have asked for more.
Murchison Falls is beautiful, not to be missed. The falls are amazing, best game drives, a beautiful national park! Don't miss the Ziwa Rhino Sanctuary and stay at the Paraa Lodge. It is a beautiful property.
Jonathan could not have been nicer and more patient with a 3 chatty women in his van. Any time we wanted to stop for a restroom break or for a photo he was more than eager to accommodate us. By the second day we felt like he was part of our group, not our driver. We hated to leave him when we got back to Entebbe and couldn’t thank him and hug him enough.
We have and will continue to refer Kombi Tours to our friends!
Many thanks again to you and your staff. You contributed to making our experience in Uganda the best trip ever!

Very good value for money
The communication with the office was very good and quick responses.
The Safari Tour (3 days, 2 nights) was well planned and they were exact on pickup time.
We didn't upgrade car or accommodation, so we didn't get a lot of comfort in the vans - but for us it was totally okay in an old VW Transporter van :)
The accommodation was fantastic, cosy huts, high service, very nice food in the middle of the savanne.
We chose the chimpanze tracking and it was an outstanding experience.

Amazing safari, with so many highlights and memories its impossible to pick the best - thanks Kombi!
We picked Kombi Nation after considering several different tour companies' proposals, on the strength of their innovative approach, and Rachel's great communication, thoroughness, and desire to provide just what we wanted, with close attention to detail. The safari exceeded our hopes and expectations, from the amazing locations themselves, fantastic experiences, and highly knowledgable driver whose friendliness and local contacts made everything run smoothly - we felt well looked after every step of the way, and found animals not seen by other groups because of the driver's sheer determination.. So many thanks to Rachel, Isaac and the team for an unforgettable trip.

Great operators, good time
Kombi was responsive, helpful and efficient in getting my fishing trip booked. The staff at the dock were accommodating and friendly, and both captain and fishing guide were amazing. The trip was professionally done, the boat and fishing equipment good and well maintained and the team was quick to change things up when we weren't hitting fish, something I always appreciate.
And we caught fish....

Our experience with KNT was outstanding in every way and we loved our driver, Tom!
Rachel and Steve were very easy to communicate with during the decision-making and booking process. No question was left unanswered and they didn't seem to mind answering all of our questions. The safari, accommodations, food, and our driver, Tom, were excellent. We were a diverse group of 6 ranging in age from 2 to 63, and Tom kept all of us happy and entertained. Our guides (including Tom) were excellent in their knowledge of flora and fauna. We saw lots of animals, although I suppose you always want to see more!! The price of the safari relative to other companies seemed very reasonable to us, and we would definitely use KNT in the future were we to return. Thank you!

Brilliant!
My husband and I just finished a 9 day private tour around Uganda, and absolutely adored our time spent there!! Our driver/guide Frank was amazing - knowledgeable, kind, always ensuring we got the best out of our Ugandan experience - we will miss him very much! Rachel and the team were also a pleasure to deal with in the leadup to tour aswell, adjusting our itinerary to get the best out of our short time there, whilst accomodating our personal side plans we wished to visit along the way. We would recommend Kombi to anyone - plus the accommodation and food were next level!
Amazing times!

Memorable gorilla tracking experience
I asked Kombi Tour to organize a tour with little notice, little time available (3 days) and need for assistance to babysit my 10 months old boy while my partner and I went for gorilla tracking. Everything was organised on time and efficiently: also, they sort out a problem of UWA with gorilla permits, allowing us a wonderful gorilla tracking experience.
