Book with Kajie to guarantee a great time in Uganda!
From the planning stage to the day we were dropped at the airport, Ronald from Kajie Safaris was so helpful. We booked a slightly customized Chimp, Queen Elizabeth, and Bwindi Mountain Gorilla 6-day tour in Uganda. Ronald was so helpful in working out the details, helping us make sure we were welcomed warmly to our initial hotel and drove us to Kigali to fly onto our next destination. We trusted his expertise in choosing great camps (don't miss Bweza Gorilla Lodge) and organizing the logistics of the various tour services and everything went so smoothly. If you are looking to do a Safari in Uganda, I highly recommend Kajie. I also would encourage people to not miss the chimps, as we enjoyed them as much if not more than the gorillas!

Very well organised tour that covered our needs. The Murchison NP accommodation was below standard
We had a great trip enhanced by our guide Barluku. He went out of his way to ensure we had some amazing experiences. The best of which were the Rhino Sanctuary, the chimpanzees and the Gorillas of course. All of which we viewed from between 2 to 3 meters away. This was totally unexpected but what unforgettable experiences. Barluku was friendly with a great sense of humour. He gave us insight into life in Uganda and is very well connected and made things happen for us. 5 star tour guide.

Unforgettable Adventures: A Perfect Blend of Wildlife, Nature, and Exceptional Service
Thank you so much for your kind message and for ensuring that our holiday in Uganda was truly unforgettable. We greatly appreciate the effort you put into organizing every aspect of our 3-day safari and gorilla trekking experience. From start to finish, Kajie Safari exceeded our expectations, and we are grateful for the memories that will stay with us for a lifetime.
Our safari was a perfect blend of adventure, breathtaking scenery, and exceptional service. The accommodations were comfortable, and the food provided was both delicious and a great way to experience local flavors. We particularly loved how well-planned the itinerary was, ensuring we had ample time to explore without feeling rushed.
The gorilla trekking experience was nothing short of magical. Being able to see these majestic creatures in their natural habitat was a humbling and awe-inspiring moment that words can hardly describe. The guides and trackers were not only knowledgeable but also incredibly passionate, which enhanced the entire experience. They made sure we learned about the gorillas’ habits, behaviors, and the conservation efforts in place, which deepened our appreciation for this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
We were also impressed with the professionalism and dedication of our guide throughout the trip. Their expertise and attention to detail ensured that every aspect of the safari went smoothly, from timely pickups to navigating the parks and offering fascinating insights about the wildlife and the local culture.
We are happy to leave reviews about our wonderful experience and will gladly post on both TripAdvisor and SafariBookings using the links you provided. Thank you once again for creating such a seamless and enriching journey for us.
We would highly recommend Kajie Safari to anyone considering a trip to Uganda, and we hope to return one day to explore more of this beautiful country

Trip of a Lifetime!
We did a 10-day safari in Uganda with Kajie Safaris, and it was an absolutely incredible experience. Our guides, Simon & Simon (we had two cars for 9 people) made every aspect of the trip amazing. Seeing the mountain gorillas had long been a bucket-list item, and did not disappoint- but we were also blown away by every other part of the trip as well! Chimpanzee tracking, game drives, seeing the big 5 - everything was beyond our expectations. The lodges were lovely. Our group was mostly vegan/vegetarian and Kajie made sure we had good food options everywhere we went. Ronald answered all our questions before the trip and helped us get together everything we needed to arrive, and once there Simon & Simon made the trip seamless. I can't imagine having done this trip with another group and would whole-heartedly recommend Kajie Safaris!

Everything sorted for you
My husband did all the organising and booking with Ronald so I can't comment on that, but I never heard him complain and Ronald did sound super helpful and easy to communicate with... as for pricing, ours was a little more expensive as we chose to stay in nicer places, whereas if you want to save money on accommodation they do have cheaper options... during my husband's research he read many reviews that spoke highly of their guide Bob, I told him to see if we could request Bob, and we successfully were allocated Bob which was the greatest thing that could have happened for us! We highly recommend Bob, he is the King Pin of Uganda! He has great knowledge of Uganda, of the tour, great navigation skills, lots of connections with the locals and other tour operators (we had a frustrating boat ride experience so for the 2nd one we asked if he could see if we could pay someone extra to do a private boat ride for us which he made happen)! Don't be offended that Bob is on his phone a lot, like I swear sometimes more than 5 calls an hour, because this is just him making magic happen and making sure that things are ready for you as you arrive places. He is a very easy going, positive man that loves life and wants to share that love and happiness with you. It's not just a job for Bob, it is his passion and he truly cares about your experience being the best nature will possibly provide for you, as of course, he can not control nature, but he managed to get us the big 5 during our 8 day tour!! We would recommend choosing minimum 12 days just FYI, 8 days just felt like not enough time, even though we still did everything, we could have easily done more in such a beautiful country in the company of such an amazing man! Bob is also so caring and considerate as I have a lot of degenerative disorders and even though he didn't know of any of my illnesses and even though on the outside I look young and healthy, he believed me and tried to understand me when I told him I am in a lot of pain every day and that I will need a shorter hike for the Gorillas and he felt sympathy for me and again worked magic to get us the 2nd closest hike which still had a silver back which still ended up being a 5hr round trip which please do yourself a favour, even if you are healthy, get a porter, they support you and you support them by feeding their family so it's win win. But yeah I could go on and about how wonderful our experience was but you'll see for yourself.

Well organized professionals, flexible, adjusting to clients needs
I loved everything about this trip!
Ronald and Bob from Kajie Safaris made really good job to take us to the must see/be in Uganda in the best style.
We saw quite a big group of rhinos in Ziwa sanctuary, lots of chimps (we had the Chimps Kingdom movie live :D), Murchison waterfalls and the National Parks: Murchison and Queens Elizabeth. We did the boat trip on Nile, on lake Bunyonyi, Kazinga channel, to mention only the biggest highlights of this trip as there were many more on our way! And the lodges! Clean, comfortable, with great amenities, delicious food and helpful staff. Each was like cherry on the pie after a long day of exitement going through our activities. And of course the gorllas! That is an unforgetable experience, one in a life time like this!
THANK YOU!
AND Bob - thanks for flexibility!
Amazing.
Amazing time. The best guide there is Collins. The moment we landed till the last day we were treated like royalties. Amazing landscape great safaris, good food and great vibes.

Kajie will make your Ugandan adventure unforgettable!
Our experience with Kajie Safaris was absolutely incredible! Our guide, Baluku (a true short king), made the trip unforgettable—he was an excellent driver and a fantastic guide who ensured we had an amazing time.
Over our six-day tour, we did gorilla tracking, a safari, a boat tour, and chimp tracking, all of which were unforgettable experiences. The accommodations throughout the trip were great, with lovely hosts who made us feel welcome.
The booking process was also seamless—Ronald and his team were so responsive and helpful, making everything easy from start to finish. Uganda is such a beautiful country, and we only wish we had more time to explore. If you’re considering a trip, we can’t recommend Kajie Safaris enough!
For Baluku… how do we say “best guide ever” in English? (An inside joke that he can explain to you if he’s your guide LOL)

Kajie Safaris delivered an unforgettable experience for us!
Wildlife tourism is my favorite, so when I got invited to speak at a conference in Uganda, I knew that I’d want to go on a gorilla trek while in country. Kajie Safaris made this dream come true, with great attention to detail along the way. Our driver, Edwin was courteous and professional, our stay at the Mahogany Springs lodge was first-rate, and the trek itself was spectacular.
