Amazing Safari with Benjamin
The Queen Elizabeth Nationalpark Safari was amazing. Benjamin, our guide for the 3 days was extremely friendly. He gave us so much information about the culture in Uganda, all the animals and he answered everything question we had. We enjoyed the Safari a lot and would defenetly recommend it! Moreover, the lodge we stayed in was very nice, big rooms, great service and delicious food. We had a great time.
They were very accommodative about our travel dates changing and the guide was very knowledgeable
The company is very efficient and willing to customize to the client’s needs. They prepared everything ahead of time. Our guide, Ronnie was multilingual, very kind, made the effort for us to see every animal even though some had migrated. He always asked other guides where we could possibly find them and he took us there. We had a great three days

Amazing Safari with our tour guide Benjamin
We had a 3-days Safari tour with our guide Benjamin and it was fun! He was very kind and helpful. We could ask him everything we wanted. He showed us the culture and explained everything we asked. We saw almost every animal showed on the website and got a lot of information about their lifes. The Queen Elizabeth National Park was amazing. Although it was a long journey, Benjamin did everything to make the trip as comfortable as possible for us. The food in the Lodge was amazing too and the service was very good. The trip was definetly worth the money!

Fast, professional and as a person who did this the first time they gave me lots of comfort.
I was on a business trip in Kampala, thus I wanted to extend to a short safari. I found EAJS, through the Safari Tours website, it was my first time in Africa and I’ve been unfortunately scammed at other parts of the world before, so I wanted to be sure I find something totally legit. From the first communications with Ruth via email until the last moment with my tourguide Ronnie it was 10/10!. Ruth is very professional and fast responding to emails, finances were settled super correctly( I was even able to pay in EUR the second half of my settlement on site). And Ronnie, well he is like Uganda which is the Pearl of Africa; Ronnie is the Pearl of Safaris. Great talker, funny, he gives you more information than Wikipedia on animals, surroundings and the country itself. He is the Man! Thank you once again to both of them to make my 2 day safari unforgettable even as a single person.

Did the 3 days Gorilla trekking tour (Bwindi and Lake Bunyonyi) from Kampala
Sam, my guide, was great!! We have really interesting chats! I got to learn about the history and we've been exchanging ideas about culture in our countries which make the experience richer, allowing me to learn more about the country. And his drive was smooth and safe!
Gorilla tracking was unbelievable!! Everything in Bwindi regarding to the entrance/ permit was fast and easy.
Accomodation was good, especially the one in Lake Bunyonyi and food was overall okay. They were waiting for us in both places when we arrived with everything ready.
Ruth answered every doubt I have before booking the trip. No hidden costs and no unexpected inconvenients.
Highly recommend East African Jungle Safaris!

Amazing
This company helped me, since I started planning my trip from Costa Rica, Ruth was very kind and gave me varied options and varied prices depending on my needs and possibilities. From the first day I felt supported and cared for, my guide was Gerald, an excellent, respectful man who made great efforts to make me experience each of the activities in the best way, he made an effort to wait patiently for the animals during the safari, he tried to helping me get products of importance to me even though that was not part of their job. I arrived on time for each activity and did not lose anything that was offered to me in the package I chose. I would definitely hire them again for future visits to Uganda, gorilla tracking was my main activity but I can tell you that in the 5 days I was there I lived incredible moments enjoying the beauties that a country like Uganda can offer with the right guide. My thanks to Ruth for her patience and to Gerald eternally grateful for her service, her friendship and his impeccable work.

1 Day Ziwa Rhino Tracking
This company made this a wonderful and easy day! Ronnie was my guide/driver and he was great. He was very accommodating and knowledgeable, plus a very safe driver. It was so great to get close to these amazing animals. Ruth was very communicative and answered every question I had promptly. I couldn't be happier with the experience.

A wonderful and exceptional experience.
We were picked up by the wonderful driver Ronnie who was always fun, answered every question, was extremely informative, and was oftentimes the life of the party. He got us to each destination super safely and stopped at all the right places. The time spent with the gorillas was also phenomenal. It was a tranquil and eye opening experience that I will never forget. Communication was great from EAJS and we had the best time we could have. After it was all said and done, Ronnie took us back and even though it was POURING rain, he drove smooth and comfortably to our destination.

Gorilla Trekking
We can not say enough about our experience with East African Jungle Safari. From our first contact with Ruth, we knew we were in good hands, she handled everything efficiently and promptly.
Once we arrived, we were greeted at our hotel Ronnie (our guide for the week) who was amazing. Ronnie is one of the most laidback, yet hard working people we have ever traveled with. He is sincere and treats his customers as if they were family. He was very conscientious and always made sure we were safe and having a great time. We highly recommend booking your excursions with East African Safari and make sure you ask that Ronnie is your guide ;-)

Custom package of Mabamba Swamp tour, Equator, Rhino Sanctuary & Murchison Falls
Honestly, this was one of the best trips I have ever taken in my life. The Mabamba swamp tour was great and relaxing. We saw all kinds of wild life including the shoebill. The trip to the equator on the boat was great. The weather was perfect and Mo was a very friendly boat Captain and had interesting information about the Lake and surrounding area. It was a relaxing end to a first day, which was preceded by a lot of travel and little sleep. The second day had the game drive, which was a lot of fun and had some beautiful sights to see. The trip on the Nile was great for viewing wildlife and seeing the falls from the bottom. It would have been better to be able to get a little closer but it is understandable as the current from the falls is to strong and overpowers the boat. The boat was short in seating so many sat on the engine covers (not a deal breaker unless you have physical issues). Outside of the boat being overbooked, this was a good experience. Still saw so much wildlife during the ride and could move around the boat to see everything. The stay at the parkland lodge was nice and the morning game drive found even more close encounters with the larger wildlife there. The top of the falls had some of the most beautiful views and I would have stayed there for hours longer if we did not have other places to go. Lastly, the rhino sanctuary was incredible. Walking amongst these giant white rhinos was a unique experience, and helps you appreciate these magnificent animals. Our guide, Eddie, was outstanding. He answered all our questions and got us where we needed to be. He took care of all the busy work and let us enjoy the trip, which was exactly what we were looking for. We have nothing but positive reviews about the experience, and I have told everyone already asking us about the trip as such. I plan to come back again one day and experience more of the Pearl of Africa because it is such majestic country. Thank you for being amazing hosts.
The pictures do not do it justice. It is not the same as looking at these animals up close and personal or seeing the falls for yourself and feeling the spray from the rocks cool you as you enjoy the scene.
