Very professional safari operator
5/5

We chose Gombe Safari for our 2 night safari in Selous Game Reserve. They picked us up from our hotel and drove to Ngalawa camp, where we had a cute cottage house made of tent material, with electricity, quite big and nice bathroom and a little porch. There is a family of babboons in the camp which made things even better for us. On the same day of our arrival we went on a boat safari, on which we ve seen a lot of hippos, crocodiles and a beautiful sunset. The second day was game drive, which took about 9 hours, we have basically seen all the animals, including lions, giraffes, zebras, elephants. And the whole time it was just us and the driver in the 4x4 jeep, which was amazing! On the last day we went on a walking safari, which was also very interesting. All those days we had meals at our camp, very delicious and in very big amounts. I recommend this safari operator as well as Selous Game Reserve to everyone!

Very flexible, friendly and responsive service
4/5

I reccommend Gombe Safaris and Tours. It is a very flexible, friendly and responsive service. They put together a good tour which met my needs. Overall, the service providers they used were also good in Kigoma and Gombe. The only area for improvement would have been communications (maybe a bit clearer on the schedules), and ensuring that the service providers on the ground were fully up to speed but overall it was very good.

Our trip to Mahale with Gombe Track went off flawlessly.
5/5

Joshua was prompt responding to any questions and flexible with our requirements. Our trip logistics were complex in an area with little tourist infrastructure. Every step was perfectly executed. The guides and other support staff were very knowledgeable and had good language skills. I highly recommend their services.

WONDERFUL!! Much much more than I expected.
5/5

The price of $900.00 seem very expensive UNTIL I saw what we got (flights, private two hour boat trip, a private cook and very good food, a private guild to the chimps, pick up and drop off etc.). Being on the other side of the earth, the communications was excellent and timely even though my e-mail had dropped into the junk box. I would recommend this tour and company to anyone.

A trustworthy travel agency with sense of responsibility
5/5

This is not good at English, so it bothers me, but the guides and Tribar's correspondence is wonderful.
Mahare was a paradise where orangutans and other monkeys live freely. Whoever is lost looking at this sentence will definitely proceed.

Amazing!!
5/5

Booking the Safari to Mikumi with Gombe and the team was the best decision we made in this vacation! Our Safari trip was amazing and exciting all the time! We stayed at a good and comfortable cottage and inside the park near of the animals. We could hear some of them in the night from our room ... it was so amazing!
Joshua was very attentive with us since the first contact until the day before the trip! He answered us very quickly with all informations we needed.
To complete our wonderful experience with Gombe, Charles Msengi was the best guide / driver that we could asked for! He was so kind and nice with us all the time. He explained everything he knows about the animals and tried what he could to put us in the best view of the animal even the most hidden ones! He knows where all animals are and woke up early to see the lions hunting in the morning before the sunshine! Everything was incredible and we recommend them to your trip!

Reservar o Safari a Mikumi com o Gombe e a equipe foi a melhor decisão que tomamos nestas férias! Nosso Safari foi incrível e emocionante o tempo todo! Nós ficamos em uma boa casa confortável e dentro do parque perto dos animais. Podíamos ouvir alguns deles na noite do nosso quarto ... foi tão incrível!
Joshua foi muito atencioso conosco desde o primeiro contato até o dia antes da viagem! Ele nos respondeu muito rapidamente com todas as informações que precisávamos.
Para completar nossa experiência maravilhosa com o Gombe, Charles Msengi foi o melhor guia / driver que poderíamos pedir! Ele era tão gentil e legal conosco o tempo todo. Ele explicou tudo o que ele conhece sobre os animais e tentou o que pôde para nos colocar na melhor visão do animal, mesmo os mais escondidos! Ele sabe onde estão todos os animais e acordou cedo para vermos os leões caçar de manhã antes do sol nascer! Tudo foi incrível e nós os recomendamos para sua viagem!

Very special day at Lake Tanganyika and Gombe NP
5/5

I really enjoyed my 1 day trip to Gombe National Park and Ujiji. Although I had very limited time (less than 2 days) in Kigoma and had arrived late from a 13-14 hour journey from Mwanza the day before, it was the right decision to choose the Gombe day trip. I was impressed that everything was well co-ordinated - from the car pick up, to the boatman (Baraco?), to the guide at Gombe NP, and the driver and guide for the very short but informative visit to the Livingstone museum at Ujiji. I thoroughly enjoyed the sights and sounds along Lake Tanganyika and will never forget my time swimming in the lake. I also fondly remember watching the chimps and enjoying the panoramic view at Jane's peak in Gombe NP. The guide gave me full liberty of time at Gombe. The pace was unhurried. I should have realised I was taking a bit too much time and I requested to expedite the visit to Ujiji on my way back. This the driver did. The guide at the Livingstone museum was knowledgable. And it was great that the driver managed to get me back to Kigoma Hilltop Hotel just in time for a most exquisite sunset over Lake Tanganyika.

In summary, a most unforgettable day. Thank you.
