Best company for your safari in both Kenya and Tanzania
Niko, Susan and company do a great job. They are personable and knowledgeable. Our safaris have been great (have been on more than one). We saw everything we wanted to, had very nice accommodations, great food and wonderful guides.

A strong endorsement of Robert Ntale and his company Cheetah Safaris in Uganda
Just returned from a weekend in Lake Mburo National Park in Uganda. Since I was working during the past week in Uganda, I had a limited amount of time, I chose this Park because it is relatively close from Kampala/Entebe. Beyond the Park itself and its wonderful biodiversity, I had a first rate experience for the following reasons: (1) there were no surprises in terms of program, timing, price etc... Robert is extremely reliable; (ii) we were provided with lots of information ... Robert is very knowledgeable about the environment, wildlife, Uganda National Parks; (iii) we spent lots of time in the Park ... Robert was very generous with his time and his attention. When I return to Uganda, I will definitely contact him.

Great service
Pamela met us at the airport late at night to greet us. Everything was coordinated and ran smoothly. Our driver Sam was fantastic - very educated and personable. We had a very good experience and will certainly use Magical Retreats and Adventures Tours again in the future.

Happy times in Tanzania
We had a great safari arranged by Safari Hub. The accommodation was comfortable, vehicle well-built especially the open roof which was a delight for avid photographers such as myself and the driver really knew his stuff. Thanks guys………

I wish Alym was a travel agent for the rest of the world!
Working with Alym is the best experience I've ever had working with a travel agent. He started by having a phone call with us and discussing a plethora of options, and then giving us his opinion on what he thought we would like based on our ideas for the trip. He hit it spot on. And the best part of the whole thing was the ease of communication. He always answers within 24 hours, which I've always had problems with previous travel agents answering when they felt like it. We had an amazing time in Kenya at the Giraffe Manor, and safari in Lake Nakuru and Masai Mara. We liked our accomodations in Masai Mara better than Lake Nakuru, but Alym set our expectations going in that it was not quite as nice due to the budget restrictions we had set. We know now that we should have been more lenient with our budget but we will know for next time. After safari, Alym found us a great beach resort in Zanzibar where we relaxed for a week. We are already thinking about where to next in Africa and in the meantime, letting all of our friends know that they need to go too.

I highly recommend Kombi Tours. 8 wonderful days in Africa!
We did the works - from Murchison Falls, Queen Elizabeth to see the Gorillas. Prior to the trip, I was able to get timely and accurate information as I adjusted and personalized our trip. Steve and Rachel were very helpful and did not nickel and dime me for the changes. Having the meals included was wonderful. I would honestly, skip the packed lunches unless you check them out first. Other than that - the food was great. On the first day that we met Isaac, he was 10 minutes early!!! That was a great relief. The entire trip he was exceedingly prompt. Uganda is very different in many ways including the roads and driving. Isaac - a very skilled driver was very good at navigating the traffic quickly and safely. His knowledge and humor really added to the experience. Uganda is definitely a place to visit and Kombi is a great company to travel with.

Fantastic, good value safari
We booked our safari two weeks in advance with excellent customer service emailing me back very quickly with all the details I needed. It was excellent value for money with travel, accommodation and food all included. We were both picked up and returned to our accommodation.
During the safari our guide, Jacob, was brilliant. He was keen to get us to see all the animals we wanted to spot and went out of his way to make our experience a great one. We spotted lions (and cubs!), a leopard, a cheetah, hippos, elephants and giraffes to name a few.
The accommodation was fairly basic but to be expected for the price and we were always well fed.
Thanks for the great safari.

I had a wonderful experience with Youth Adventure and Safari! Great trek! Amazing staff! :)
I heard about this tour company through a friend who had climbed Kilimanjaro and started emailing them with my questions regarding the trek. One of the owners (Godfrey) responded to all my questions promptly, picked us up at the airport and drove us to the base to start our trek (yes, we wanted to start as soon as we landed to save time). We did the 6 day/5 night Machame route and throughout our 6 days the guides were very attentive and caring. They ensured we ate and drank lots so we have energy for the summit ( some people start losing appetite when they get higher) and briefed us on what to wear and bring in our packs the night before. The cook made us hot food and we even get snacks to munch on on our way up. The porters we had were all very polite, they were always the last ones to hike (after packing up our tents) but the first to arrive and have our tents, mattresses and bags set out for us when we arrive at the next campsite. With all the supportive staff, my friend and I made it to the summit! :) The other owner (Daniel) picked us up after our trek, drove us to our hotel and then to the airport the following day. We have been taken care of from the day we got out of the airport until the day we return home. I have traveled to over 40 countries and have joined many tours, I think the owners of Youth Adventure & Safaris really added the extra touch to make tourists feel welcome and cared for. Thank you very much!! We had a superb time! :))
