A royal journey
Communications were excellent from very beginning. Due to schedule changes by other tour company and airlines, it was necessary to change Kajie Safaris itinerary Several times and these were cheerfully made without complaint. As a single female traveler I was a bit nervous about traveling alone in Uganda after a single female traveler had been kidnapped just weeks before my arrival. Ronald allayed my fears and assured me we would not be traveling in the area where kidnapping occurred.
From the first moment when Ronald met me at the airport I felt comfortable and was confident I would be well taken care of. I was not disappointed.
The safari van was very comfortable and equipped with WiFi and charging outlet. The six day journey was filled with breathtaking scenery and incredible wildlife sightings. Highlights included an Unforgettable private viewing of mama leopard teaching her cub to hunt, gorilla trek, chimpanzee visit, and an overnight stay in an unbelievably beautiful hotel overlooking a volcanic lake. Everywhere the Ugandan people were gracious and welcoming. I loved every moment of my safari and am looking forward to a future visit.

Dream Makers!! The best Uganda Safari company!!
I will always be grateful to Kajie Safaris because they allowed me to realize my big dream with a small budget.
I've been to Uganda in September 2019 and I spent 7 days and 6 nights with Ben as a guide and it was amazing.
Me and my wife have enjoyed every single day, road, lodge and camp they have chosen for us.
Starting with a low budget per person we have been doing Chimps Trekking, visiting Queen Elizabeth NP and Kazinga Channel, cruising Lake Bunyonyi and at the end of the week...Gorilla Trekking.
It has been a magical stay and we are lucky to have shared this experience with the AMAZING BEN! He was always paying attention at our needs and he is super keen and enthusiast on history, nature and culture of his country.
Ben and Kajie Safaris are super recommended for visiting Uganda.

Great experience
We’re just back from a wonderful week in Uganda with Kajie safaris which we will never forget. Ronald was very efficient in the booking process and the holiday we were promised was what we received plus more. Our guide for the week was Wyclef and it’s fair to say that he contributed greatly to our enjoyment of the week. He was very knowledgeable about the wildlife and where to find it and tried very hard to ensure we saw the very best of Uganda. He was also great company which is important when you are spending so much time together. The lodges we stayed in were comfortable and all had fabulous views. The stand out activities were the rhino sanctuary, Murchinson falls and chimpanzee and gorilla trekking - pretty much everything we did. Uganda is a beautiful country with friendly people and we enjoyed every minute of our stay.

Best travel experience!
Kajie Safaris excelled my expectations! We booked through Ronald and he made everything so EASY, and any communication/ questions we had was answered right away!
We booked the 5 day Safari/gorilla tour and our tour guide name was Reward! Please request him if he’s available! He’s great! :)I traveled with two other ladies and he made sure we were SAFE and taken care of the entire time! We didn’t have to worry about a single thing! I can’t express it enough, book with this company! Best travel experience I’ve ever had with a tour company!

Totally The Best
My son dealt with all the communications which were excellent. Everything ran smoothly and our guide Oneasmas was fantastic. He kept us fully informed at every stage and was a real ambassador for the tour operator.

an effective support to discover Uganda
My friend and I were aiming to see the gorillas in the impenetrable Bwindi National Park. We completed our tour by Queen Elizabeth Park game drives, Ishasha trees-climbing lions, and the chimp trek in the Kibale Forest.. Ronald has been efficient throughout the booking process. He responded to our messages with extreme speed and adapted the trip according to our flight schedules. We must admit that his new proposal has totally satisfied us. This trip went very well. As we are French we have benefited from a serious driver and a very nice interpreter who allowed us to discover a wonderful country Uganda. We have returned home delighted and highly recommend Ronald and the Kajie Safaris team to anyone wanting to explore African wildlife

Professional company that can accommodate your every need
We are 3 photographers who had the luck of traveling with Kajie Safaris lead by Ronald and Ben Ejadu, our lovely tour.
We visited everything in our itinerary, stayed at lovely places with great facilities and nice view, had great food along the way and all together had the best time !
Ben, our guide, was very knowledgeable, about Uganda history, culture, the local wildlife and birds, and I made sure to challenge him with many questions (:
The company made sure to be flexible and to accommodate every need we had, especially as photographers (like getting back at the evening to the reserve to get a second chance to see the lions).
We were all very happy and can recommend easily on these fabulous guys, who made this trip a once in a life time experience !
They even surprised me with a birthday party and cake (: Go Kajie !

Ronald from Kajie was great but not a good experience with our guide
Ronald at Kajie Safaris was so wonderful in preparing a great itinerary for myself and my mid twenties daughter. He was quick to respond to questions (and there were many) and he was really flexible even when we had to make a late change to our dates and perhaps if he had been our guide our safari would have been better. Our guide (more a driver than a guide) was Wycliffe and he was awful. He was rude, unhelpful and didn't tell us information we needed for different game parks. We would arrive and then he would tell us we needed certain things which we had back at the camp, he deliberately didn't tell us things until it was too late. We had to ask him for information about what we were doing the next day he would just tell us to be ready at a certain time without any reason such as we need to get a 7am ferry! He seemed to have a set against us from the beginning he didn't even step forward at the airport or hold the sign up (that he had in his hand ),we had to ask if any of the drivers there was Wycliffe. We had to write to Ronald and tell him half way through it was that bad and after a phone call to Wycliffe his behaviour did improve but that shows how deliberate his actions were. When we were on game drives with the roof off, he would leave the motor running (which is not normal as you want to get rid of the vibration when taking photos) and then roll forward and hit the brakes so you would fall forward. He took off when he was ready, never asking if we were ready again something I have never experienced with our previously expert guides, they would always ask right to go? I have been on 4 safaris and about 10 game drives so I think I can compare and we have never had anything but wonderful treatment from our guides. I don't blame Ronald or Kajie Safaris so don't punish them just make sure your guide is not Wycliffe before you book.

Great experiences at Bwindi and Kidepo NP
Planning our trip to Uganda I have choosen Kajie Safaris for visiting the NP' s, after a disappointing contact to another company.
Ronald was always fast and straight forward in answering all my questions and open to all of our ideas. Really excellent customers service. Suggestions that were made on a really short notice were answered promptly to our full satisfaction.
I booked an one day trip to Bwindi NP for Gorilla trekking with an individual pick up in Kabale and drop off at Kisiizi falls. I have had a great time with Elias. He is a good and safe driver and prepared everythng perfect for me. I enjoyed the time so much. I will never forget that day.
Some days later we did a 3 day trip with Ronald himself to Kidepo NP. Ronald organized a perfect accomodation with a beautiful view over the park and great meals. We have had a magnificent time together. He is as well an excellent driver (on and offroad) as a realy plaesent and well informed guide. It feels like we have found a new friend.
If I need a tour operator for Uganda again I will choose definitely Kajie Safaris.
