Excellent organizer that you can trust completely
From the arrival to departure they did an amazing job ; everything was extremely well organized ( hotels , meals , tours in each place ) ; the Gorilla tracking was out of this world . Martin our guide is the best I have ever had ( kind , helpful, with a great knowledge of anything you want to ask him ). I highly recommend Kajie and Martin

Attentive and well organised
We went as a group of friends for a 4 day Gorilla/Chimpanzee trekking experience. Organised by Ronald who was very attentive and quick to respond. Balaku our driver/guide was fantastic, he was very knowledgeable and super helpful. He knows his country inside and out and even managed to fit in a Rolex cooking class for us which was a nice surprise. The gorilla and chimpanzee treks were very well organised and we had some incredible encounters. Unforgettable memories!

Great Rwanda/Uganda primate tour
Ronald was outstanding at helping us develop our trip and very responsive to email and Whatsapp. He gave us exactly what we wanted. Our guide was Martin Asimwe and he was outstanding. He made great suggestions on how to tweak the trip and made it better. He advocated for us, getting a later start in golden monkey trekking when we were jet lagged, changing chimp tracking (chase them for 4 hours) to chimp observation (1 hour but they stay in one place, mainly) and got us special treatment many places. He was friendly and knowledgeable and overall great. I cannot recommend the group more.
As an aside I would do gorillas in Rwanda though more costly, the view is far better than in Uganda.

Unforgettable experience in Uganda!
We approached Kajie safaris to provide us with a complete package for our holiday in Uganda which included game drives, community visits, experiences with the primates and every other detail required. Our entire trip was overseen by Ronald who provided us with a very reasonable price and kept us informed of every detail in advance of our trip and during. We were given plenty of opportunity to tailor our trip to our needs and did so with their knowledge and experience. Our guide for the trip - Colly - met us at the airport and was with us the entire trip. Our experience with Kajie was absolutely fantastic. Every aspect of our trip was run very smoothly with Colly building a great relationship with us throughout the journey. He was knowledgeable and friendly with a great sense of humour and we honestly would recommend everyone to request him as their guide should they choose Uganda!
There is not a single thing we can say could have been improved, Kajie were proactive and highly responsive to our needs and requests. Our transport, hotels and food organised were exceptional and they organised every aspect of our trip. They went above and beyond to make sure that we had the best opportunity to see the primates and every species we could want to see with excellent opportunities to photo and video them.
Colly's local knowledge was brilliant and ensured we had a smooth trip from start to finish. These guys are a 10 out of 10 for us and, whilst other tour companies may be good, from experience we would recommend anyone and everyone that can to go to Uganda, book with Kajie, and ask for Colly to be their guide! Amazing stuff :)

Exceptional tour with Kajie Safaris
This was a once in a lifetime tour. The 15 day safari was well organized. We covered a lot of distance and saw more wildlife than I expected. The accommodations were excellent overall, Elephant Hab Lodge being the best. Our tour guide and driver, Bob M was exceptional. He was very warm, personable, knowledgable and competent in managing the details seamlessly. He was an exquisite driver over some difficult roads in the Land Cruiser. Uganda is beautiful. Wildlife is exquisite especially the gorillas!

Amazing 7 Day Uganda Safari with Kajie and Uncle Bob
Had an amazing seven day Safari with Kajie Safaris to Kampala, Kibale, Queen Elizabeth and Bwindi (staying at Cassia Lodge, Turaco Treetops, the Bush Lodge and Bweza). The accommodations were fantastic and each had a ton of character and great service. The food was excellent as well. Bob (Aka “Uncle Bob”) was our guide. Bob is one of the friendliest and most personable people I have ever met. It was an an absolute pleasure spending the week with Bob. Bob did everything possible to make us comfortable and made the effort to teach us about local culture and show us local food. My wife is allergic to nuts and Bob made sure all of our food was safe, keeping our mind at ease. Seeing the Gorillas in Bwindi was an amazing once in a lifetime experience. While there can be some steep parts, the park rangers are great at helping everyone along and it is a near certainty that you will see the Gorillas up close. We had a great time on our Uganda Safari and I would highly recommend going with Kajie Safaris and Uncle Bob.

THE BEST!
LOOK NO FURTHER! You just found the best company for your safari in Uganda. We had the most amazing time on our 11 day trip with Kajie! The communication prior with Ronald and his team was excellent. They make sure you have all the information you need and more (and even send you reminders regarding your visa/vaccination :)). And then we had the best guide ever -hi Baluku! He took us to amazing local places when we told him we wanted to eat more local food, always made sure we had the best guide & group for the Trekkings and he introduced us to Ugandan Dancehall music during the long drives. The lodges are all absolutely GORGEOUS, the pictures in the brochure don’t do them enough justice. The service & food everywhere is excellent. We were always sad to leave. Thank you so much for this once in a lifetime experience, we will never forget it!
We can’t recommend it enough!
This is just the beginning! ;)

A wonderful experience from beginning to end
We recently had an unforgettable safari adventure with Kajie Safaris and it exceeded all expectations. Our journey was meticulously crafted, offering a perfect blend of adventure, wildlife encounters, and cultural immersion. Roland was extremely attentive and helpful in the planning and execution of the trip. He even checked in after our trip to confirm it was everything we wanted.
Led by the exceptional guide, Zacc, every moment was filled with excitement and discovery. The highlight of our safari was undoubtedly the gorilla trekking experience in Uganda. It was a profound and humbling encounter that will stay with me forever. Additionally, the walking safari in Lake Mburro provided an unique perspective, allowing us to intimately explore the diverse ecosystems and observe wildlife up close.
Zacc's expertise and passion for the land and its inhabitants truly made the journey exceptional. His extensive knowledge of the wildlife, local customs, and landscapes enriched our experience beyond measure. Moreover, his friendly demeanor and genuine care ensured that we felt not just like tourists, but like friends exploring together. I cannot recommend Kajie Safaris and Zacc highly enough for an unparalleled safari adventure that will leave you with cherished memories to last a lifetime.
