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)
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.

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!

Beautiful Uganda with Eddie and Kajie Safaris!
If you are planning a trip to Uganda you must book with Kajie Safaris!! They go above and beyond to make sure you are catered to every step of your trip! We did a gorilla trek, learned how Ugandan coffee and gin are made and visited the Batwa (highly recommend you do all of these!). Eddie (the guide) is AMAZING!!! If you can request a guide, I would recommend that you ask for Eddie! He is kind, funny, attentive and truly enjoys his job! He is the best!!! Thank you Ronald, Eddie and Kajie Safaris!

A great trip
This trip was great, but it felt a bit short. I hope to come again. Colly is a very good and responsible guide.

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.

Memorable Experience!
Our Uganda safari trip with Kajie Safaris was amazing! The 10 day tour was well organized and thoughtfully planned; a great balance of activities such as game drives, gorilla and chimp treks, boat rides and walking tours. We had a large group, so had two guides, Simon and Simon. They were extremely helpful, very knowledgeable and made the trip a wonderful experience. The days were full of beautiful views, wildlife sightings, visits to local communities, great meals, and comfortable accommodations. It was a truly memorable adventure and I highly recommend Kajie Safaris!

An unforgetting experience With Bob that you will never forget.
From getting picked up From the airport to getting dropped off this trip was unforgettable. From seeing the Big 5 to seeing the chimps and gorillas. Our guide Bob was amazing, I couldn't of asked for anyone better not only did he get us to our destinations safely but he went up and beyond on many occasions.
including doing his best to understand my wifes health conditions. And a added bonus Along the Journey he even stopped at places that were not on the intinary that were amazing. I also can't fault the lodges they were all clean , good food , amazing views and most importantly beautiful staff. In the end Bob wasn't just an amazing guide but he became a great friend.

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!

Amazing trip from start to finish
As soon as Collins our guide picked us up we knew we were going to have an amazing time. Throughout the week we were taken to the most amazing places, the gorilla trek in particular was a bucket list item for us. It is clear that Collins loves his country as his passion for it shows in everything he does. His knowledge of all things Uganda is amazing and he would constantly explain things and point different animals and places out to us.
We would have no hesitation in recommending Kajie safaris and will definitely use them again when we want to travel to Kenya and Tanzania. Their professionalism and communication from the initial booking to the trip itself was exceptional. Thank you so much for the unforgettable experience and the care you took ensuring everything was perfect. X
