Featuring 13 two-seater cars individually themed as safari jeeps, the Kōmbo Coaster delivers just the right heights, speeds, twists and turns for the whole family to enjoy. The coaster reaches a top speed of 21mph over a 656-foot-long track with a maximum height of 24 feet. Kōmbo is a gift from Scott Jones and his sons Benjamin, Andrew and Daniel through the Scott A. Jones Foundation.
This slow-moving, gondola-style ride offers incredible views of the Zoo, especially the Simon Skjodt International Orangutan Center and downtown Indianapolis.
