Amazing. Pamoja is perfection 🙌🏽
From the get-go, Regina was absolutely wonderful when it came to communicating, putting together a great program, adjusting details and tailoring my trip. Super responsive and trustworthy. I am a solo female traveler and I have to say Pamoja made me feel welcome all the way from booking to being in Uganda.
My guide and driver Hamindu is just a wonderful person. Felt at ease and welcomed from day one and we had the best trip ever, saw tons of places and animals and through it all Hamindu was truly a terrific and professional person to have around. Felt very safe and enjoyed every second.
Don’t hesitate. Go for it. Uganda 🇺🇬 is a fantastic place to visit and Pamoja is the ideal way to support a local and conscious small business that gives back to community as well. An all around winner 🏆

Exceeds every expectation, beyond amazing.
Pamoja Tours exceeded expectations in every possible way. Regina was absolutely phenomenal in helping me organize our dream safari. We booked well in advance, and I must have sent Regina 40 emails leading up to our trip. She answered every one of them promptly, often within a couple of hours, and gave wonderfully detailed answers to every question I had. She went above and beyond to accommodate our every request. Words cannot express how great a job she did. I booked a private safari to Uganda for three people for two weeks and was able to customize every single day to ensure we were doing what we wanted and staying where we wanted.
Upon arrival at the airport, we were greeted by our guide, Amos, and although it sounds cliché, he quite honestly became a friend during our stay. The next time I go back to Africa, I will send Amos a message first to ensure he is free on the dates we want to travel before booking with Pamoja Tours. He, too, exceeded all expectations. His knowledge and passion for the wildlife you will encounter on a safari are unmatched. His spotting skills are ridiculously good, and he makes you feel welcome and part of the family from day one. But best of all, it is his passion and love for nature that is simply contagious, and his stamina is unbelievable. He was constantly offering to go just a little bit further because another great spot was up ahead. At no point did we ever feel rushed or short on time. We only went back to the lodge when we had requested because Amos was always keen to see more wildlife.
Our two weeks in Uganda were like nothing else. We saw every animal we went there to see, from Gorillas to Shoebills to Hyenas, Leopards, Lions, Chimps, Elephants, Giraffes, breathtaking waterfalls and more. Basically, you name it, we saw it.
I cannot recommend Pamoja Tours enough. Regina will be with you every step of the way, ensuring your vacation is exactly how you want it. Once you arrive, I promise you will have the time of your life. Uganda is a beautiful country, the parks are not crowded, and the people are beyond friendly. 10/10 recommend. Just writing this review is already making me think about booking another trip. We came away with nothing but fond memories.

Professional, knowledgeable and attentive
We traveled with Pamoja Tours recently, and we could not be happier with our 7 days Uganda trip. They were incredibly helpful from the very beginning (very patient answering all of my questions and even changing itinerary details when necessary). Regina, at the office, made excellent recommendations that allowed us to tailor our tour to exactly our taste and needs. We had last minute flight changes and she was able to re-arrange things with no problem. Allan, our driver during the trip, was equally professional and very knowledgeable. And what a trip it was!! Excellent hotels chosen to our specification, great activities that allowed us to do exactly what we wanted (even visiting a school), and the beauty of Uganda that is unparalleled. We had great experiences with chimpanzees and gorillas. Completely unforgettable. Thank you so very much, Pamoja Tours, four our amazing trip. Uganda is really the pearl of Africa, and you were GREAT.

Pamoja Tours Wonderful 14 day Uganda Safari
We did a 14-day Uganda Safari with Gorillas, Chimps and Wildlife Luxury Safari. Our itinerary was customized a bit from the original plan, and Pamoja Tours was very flexible in adapting it to exactly what we wanted.
Regina at Pamoja was wonderful to work with during the planning process. She offered thoughtful advice and clear options as we worked through what we wanted to see and do, and the type of accommodations that best suited us. We invited another couple to join us, so there were four of us traveling together, which worked out beautifully.
We were picked up at the airport by Amos, who was easily one of the best guides we’ve had across more than five African safari trips in seven different countries. Amos was with us for the entire journey and was extremely knowledgeable, professional, and well trained. Beyond that, he was attentive, calm, and genuinely invested in making sure we had a great experience every single day.
From a safety and logistics standpoint, everything was handled smoothly — vehicles were well maintained, driving was careful, park procedures were clearly explained, and we always felt safe, well informed, and well looked after.
The itinerary covered a wonderful range of Uganda’s national parks and landscapes, each with its own character. We spent time in Murchison Falls National Park, where game drives and a boat cruise along the Nile gave us close-up views of elephants, giraffes, hippos, and crocodiles, capped off by the dramatic sight of the Nile forcing its way through the narrow gorge at the falls.
In Kibale Forest National Park, we experienced chimp trekking and chimp habituation, which was intense, fascinating, and incredibly rewarding. Watching the chimps up close in their natural environment was unforgettable.
We also visited Queen Elizabeth National Park, where classic savanna game drives were paired with a boat safari on the Kazinga Channel. The density of wildlife along the water — hippos, buffalo, elephants, and countless birds — was remarkable.
The journey concluded in Bwindi Impenetrable National Park, the highlight for us and the primary reason for the trip: mountain gorilla trekking.
Our accommodations overall were wonderful. One one-night stay did not quite meet our expectations, but it had an incredible view that helped offset the shortcoming. Aside from that, the lodges were clean and comfortable, the food was consistently good, and the staff everywhere made us feel welcome and genuinely interested in our having a great stay.
We experienced everything you hope for on a safari vacation — morning game drives, afternoon and evening drives, and even boat-based game viewing. Each park felt distinct, which kept the trip engaging from start to finish.
The true highlights for us were seeing the chimpanzees and the gorillas. We did the chimp habituation first, and it was physically challenging (we are in our late 70s), to the point where we were unsure how we would manage the more demanding gorilla habituation trek.
This is where Amos truly went above and beyond. He arranged what they affectionately call an “Ugandan helicopter” for my wife — a sturdy chair carried by porters using poles. It took a total of 16 porters to make the trek possible. The cost was very reasonable ($300 plus tip), and since seeing the gorillas was a primary reason for the trip, it was an absolutely perfect solution.
One of our friends also had knee trouble on the steep terrain, and another “helicopter” was quickly arranged to assist him as well. Everyone involved was kind, patient, and genuinely happy to help us achieve what was truly a trip of a lifetime.
We would highly recommend Pamoja Tours and Travel for this type of safari and would not hesitate to use them again for other destinations. This was a memorable, well-run, and deeply rewarding experience from start to finish.
