Professional, friendly and knowledgeable service with excellent attetion to detail
5/5

We had a fantastic experience with Kombi. Right from the outset, Steve and Rachel were helpful and attentive, taking on board our requirements and budget and coming up with an itinerary that suited us. There was no question too big or small and the pre-departure information was very thorough. Our guide, Archie, and driver, Robert, were knowledgable and friendly and made everything very easy for us from the moment they picked us up. We knew they were always there if we needed a hand and that they were also happy to give us some space which suited us as that is how we like to travel. The itinerary ran smoothly, nothing was left to chance and no corners were cut. Accomodation and food far exceeded our expectations and we felt that we got real value for money. The gorilla trekking was spectacular, once in a lifetime!
I would wholeheartedly recommend Kombi for great value for money and high professional standards. I've been on alot of tours all over the world and this one in Uganda really stood out for all the right reasons. We only had a short time in Uganda so it really made all the difference to have all of the details looked after for us so that we could enjoy the beautiful country that is Uganda. Travelling with a small company who are very invested in their work and in the communities was very important to us - it felt as much like a friendship as a client-customer relationship. We felt that we were saying farewell to true friends when Archie and Robert dropped us off at Entebbe.

My greatest jearney
5/5

When my wife and I visited Tanzania for the first time we were met by a fantastic warm welcome feeling, not only from the sun but also from Mr. Makara and his colleagues . We arrived in Arusha by bus from Nairobi (Kenya) in the middle of the night. Picket up by Gideon and driven to our hotel for a good night sleep - hospitality!

Our days on the Serengeti , in Ngorogoro , and other national parks remain as a great memory for all time.

Thanks Gideon !

A wonderful experience in a fabulous country .
5/5

From being picked up at the airport to being dropped back off again, Michael my guide for the week was a pleasure to be with, his knowledge of the country and the area's we were visiting were second to none (even telling me the best spot to sit for taking pictures on a boat ride) and with eyes like an eagle saw some wonderful photo opportunities I would never have seen!! a camera should be ready at all times!! As a solo traveler it was very important that I felt safe and this was the case at all times, the one and only time there was a problem it was with accommodation and within the hour we were on route to another lodge, communication between Michael, myself and management was exceptional and nothing was too much trouble. Uganda is a magical country and there is still so much more to see, I would definitely love to return and will certainly use Speke and have no hesitation in recommending to others, a huge thank you to Michael and well done to Tony for having such a fantastic team.

Amazing trip with an individualised travel plan created withot any fuss or stress
5/5

From the onset, my trip with Pearl Afric Tours was well above my expectations. There was clear and prompt responses to any communication often requiring their agent to meet after office hours. The trip itself was amazing allowing one to see Uganda in all its splendour. The detail and care taken before the trip allowed one to sit back and enjoy the wonderful sites making every last moment a wonderful memory.

We can't wait to go on our next excursion with Carlos and Kenny. A wonderful experience!
5/5

I regularly recommend Steady Safaris to people I meet who are interested in travelling to East Africa. Our trip was seamlessly planned for us. We were involved in the planning and all or our requests were accommodated. Our guides were personable and as female travelers, we felt very safe and well looked after. The service we received was excellent. We were able to go on night and early morning safaris, had great wildlife viewings, hung out with some chimps and even visited rhinos- all arranged by Steady Safaris. I was looking for a local company with a social conscience, and I highly recommend this company to all. You will have a wonderful trip of a lifetime!

Amazing trip
5/5

I traveled to Africa in June, 2013 with a group from Cross Cultural Threshhold. Patrick was our driver/tour guide. He is very knowledgeable about the area and animals. He answered any question we had. Saw many great sights and animals. Would love to go back and would hope that I could get Patrick again! For the short time we were there, Patrick made everyone feel comfortable. It's different being in another country.

Overall rating
5/5

We stayed at Flat Dogs Camp just across the river from the Park for 5 nights. That is a lovely facility with great food. The elephants wander freely by the hatched-roof "tents". sometimes snacking on them. It was the dry season so most of the wildlife was crowded near the river which meant lots of wildlife sightings, but also quite a few other vehicles. Our drives away from the river had far fewer vehicles and found wild dogs, and other good wildlife. One nice feature is the park allows night drives (until 8pm) which were not allowed in Botswana parks. We greatly enjoyed seeing the nocturnal animals. The weather was warm but not too hot, there were almost no bugs. Everyone in our group of 7 had a great time there and highly recommend it.
