Kajie Safaris combines great guides, beautiful lodges, and perfect planning for an amazing safari.
Our 11-day safari took us from the Mabamba Swamps near Entebbe to Lake Mburo National Park, Bwindi Impenetrable Forest, Queen Elizabeth National Park, Kibale National Park, Murchison Falls National Park, and via Ziwa Rhino Sanctuary back to Entebbe.
Throughout the trip we were constantly amazed by the incredible variety of wildlife and the breathtaking landscapes Uganda has to offer. Combined with the welcoming warmth of the staff at the carefully selected lodges and the kindness of the Ugandan people in general, it creates a truly special travel experience.
The absolute highlight of our trip – and probably of all Uganda – was the gorilla trekking in Bwindi Impenetrable Forest. Sitting just a few meters away from a gorilla family and observing them quietly in their natural habitat was an unforgettable and deeply moving experience.
Eddie and the team at Kajie did an outstanding job making this trip perfect for us. From selecting beautiful lodges and organizing little surprises for our honeymoon to driving us safely across the country and, last but not least, helping us spot all of the Big Five.
We are incredibly grateful to Eddie, Ronald, Maxine, Josephine, and everyone behind the scenes at Kajie for creating such a wonderful and seamless experience. We would absolutely recommend them to anyone planning a safari in Uganda.

Absolutely amazing and even better than expected!
As a group, we went on a 10-day safari in January/February and visited the national parks at Murchinson Falls and Lake Mburo, Queen Elizabeth National Park, Lake Buyoni, Bwindi, and Kigale. It was incredible to get so close to the animals, especially on the walking safaris and the to see the chimpanzees and gorillas. A wonderful experience that I can absolutely recommend. Kaje Safaris put together a great itinerary for us and offered us many inexpensive extra activities (e.g., a village visit in Kigale and a visit to the Batwa in Bwindi), which were great.
We were very happy with our guide Collin. He showed us lots of animals and told us all about them, often made us laugh, and mastered even the bumpiest roads with ease. Thank you very much, Collin, and thank you to Kaje for these great experiences! 🫶🏻

Outstanding Experience with Kajie Safaris – Exceptional Guide Timothy
Our recent trip to Uganda was nothing short of extraordinary, and Kajie Safaris played a central role in making it so memorable.
From the initial planning phase to the final day of our journey, the level of professionalism and customer service was impeccable. The team carefully listened to our requirements and designed a truly tailor-made safari that perfectly matched our expectations. The itinerary was thoughtfully structured, well-paced, and flawlessly organized. It was clear throughout that Kajie Safaris operates with high standards and a genuine customer-oriented mindset.
A special mention goes to our driver and tour guide, Timothy. He was with us for the entire trip and quickly became much more than a guide. Timothy is an exceptional professional with a warm, calm personality and an impressive sense of responsibility. He was always punctual — never once late — and managed the schedule with precision, ensuring we arrived at every destination comfortably and on time.
His standards of hygiene, both personally and in maintaining the vehicle, were excellent. The vehicle was consistently clean and well-prepared each day. Safety and security were clearly a priority for him, and we felt completely at ease throughout the journey.
What truly sets Timothy apart is his patience, dedication, and willingness to go the extra mile without ever being asked. He was always ready to assist, answer questions, share insights about Uganda’s wildlife and culture, and adapt where needed. His deep knowledge of the country, combined with his approachable and friendly nature, transformed our trip into something genuinely special.
Without Timothy, the experience would simply not have been the same. He brought the journey to life and turned wonderful moments into lasting memories. He is a true ambassador for Kajie Safaris and for Uganda.
We highly recommend Kajie Safaris to anyone looking for a professional, well-organized, and customer-focused safari experience in Uganda.

Exceptional trip through Uganda with the best company and guide
Our 11 day trip through Uganda with Bob was an absolutely incredible experience. Our guide did an exceptional job in providing the most personalised and special moments for us. Every hotel was great, every ride was interesting and every Game Drive offered a new highlight. We saw all big five animals and more and some even so close, we still cannot believe it. The execution of the trip and the communication with Kajie was smooth and always very quick. We will be an advocate for Uganda, Kajie and Bob in particular who made our vacation memorable for ever.

Amazing
We had an amazing gorilla safari experience in Uganda, and we were extremely satisfied with the entire trip. Everything was very well organized, and we felt safe and well taken care of from start to finish. Our guides, Sualit, Jamal, and Joan, were absolutely fantastic — professional, kind, and always attentive to our needs. They truly went above and beyond, especially when they helped us resolve an issue with our lost luggage, which took a lot of stress off our shoulders. Their support, knowledge, and positive attitude made this journey unforgettable. We highly recommend this gorilla safari to anyone looking for an incredible adventure with outstanding guides and excellent care.

An Unforgettable 9-Day Safari in Uganda
We (My husband and I) traveled to Uganda for a 9-day safari with Kajie Safaris, and it exceeded all of our expectations in every possible way. Ronald, the manager, was incredibly helpful and responsive throughout the entire planning process. He handled all of our requests with great care and professionalism, making everything smooth and stress-free from the very beginning.
Our trip was absolutely amazing, and a huge part of that was thanks to our wonderful guide, Baluku. He was not only friendly and funny, but also exceptionally professional and attentive. He went above and beyond to make sure every single one of our wishes was fulfilled without any issues.
We would highly recommend Kajie Safaris to anyone looking for a truly exceptional safari experience.

Highly Recommended
From start to finish we were very impressed with Kajie. They had excellent communication throughout the booking process and were very quick to respond to any enquiries. Our tour guide, Bosco, was intelligent, informative, friendly, kind, fun to be with and so knowledgeable about the local wildlife and particularly the birds. We have never experienced such a variety of animals and birds in one tour. Anyone interested in birds should request Bosco!
We had amazing accommodation, an excellent itinerary and a wonderful experience. We would highly recommend Uganda and Kajie to anyone considering a visit to this wonderful country. One of our all time best holidays.
Friendly, helpful, professional, fun!
From start to finish the service we received was exemplary. We had some problems as we missed a connecting flight and when we let the safari guys know they quickly changed the arrangements and it really wasn't a problem for them. Brian was waiting at the airport for us with the biggest smile on his face and we knew that we were in for a good experience. Helpful and accommodating, friendly, felt safe at all times, all of the trips that we did were amazing and we got to see the most amazing wildlife thanks to Brian and his experience with trekking the wildlife. We were so honoured to get to see everything that we wanted and more. Chasing the chimpanzees through the forest and getting up close and personal with the mountain gorillas was the experience of a lifetime. Thank you to our amazing guide Brian for being so friendly and helpful, carrying our bags and recognising when we needed to have a rest.
We cannot recommend Kajie safaris and Brian enough, and also Roland for helping us to organise the trip.

Amazing African Safari Gorilla Adventure! Thank you, Sulait!
I was fortunate to come across KAJIE Safaris on Safaribookings.com when looking for a Safari to fulfill a lifelong dream of visiting the gorillas in the wild. I’m so glad I did! I didn’t have a lot of time, so I selected the 5 day, primate- focused safari in Rwanda and Uganda. It was amazing! Sulait was my guide and he far exceeded my expectations! The tour included treks through three beautiful National Parks of Rwanda and Uganda to see the Gorillas, the Chimpanzees, and the Golden Monkeys! Sulait made each day and each experience seamless - from time schedules, to paperwork, to communication between parties, to crossing the border into Uganda. When there were options for a particular experience, Sulait advocated on my behalf. In times where I wasn’t quite sure what to do next, I would look up and Sulait would appear and be there to lead me to the next step. He delivered a great client experience and was exceptional at anticipating all my traveler needs.
The accommodations were wonderful, tucked away in the jungle close to the Parks with a great nature ambiance. The rooms were clean with nice, culture- specific decor and were supplied with everything I needed or wanted. The service was truly exceptional at each location!
Thanks Sulait for a great experience! I highly recommend Sulait and KAJIE Safaris!

Makes sure it all works out.
I would always pick Kajie Safaris again for a tour through Uganda. The response and organisation of my trip was super easy and the team was very flexible on making sure I get all I was looking for during my 7 days in Uganda. Thanks to Ronald and Josephine for helping me out with all my requests. Needless to say that all the accommodations were top notch, from the Bweza Gorilla Lodge, Aakvard Safari Lodge, Chimp Nest - I loved them all and I was always sad to check-out after 1-2 nights only.
The biggest shout out and thanks go out to my on site guide Casmir aka Herbert who was not only my guide and driver but also my babysitter, 24/7-entertainer and car-pool-karaoke-buddy becoming more of a partner in crime (metaphorically speaking of course) during these past 7 days. Making sure we were always safe on the road, never missing on one of the scenic routs instead of the main-road, finding the best coffee places with a view and making this week of looking for wild-life and being in nature into one of the best weeks in my life. Travelling solo is not always easy, but with a guide like him there was no single moment to be worried or to be bored - time was flying way to quick, even during the long hours of driving/roadtripping across the country - he was really the best company I could have asked for. (althought he did not let me win at pool. ;-))
Thank you - it would not have been the same without you. ♡
