Friendly and organised.
I contacted Fred some time back and asked him to come up with an itinerary that included all the mains attractions in Uganda. He was very quick and provided a wonderful 12 day tour taking in all the main sights and more. The highlight for me was the gorillas in Bwindi national park. I would fully recommend choosing East African Jungle Safaris and would certainly choose them again, should I come back.
I would like to personally congratulate our driver Andrew, who was fantastic throughout the whole trip. He was attentive to our needs and catered for all eventuality. He was able to reorganise things very quickly and also add an extra local tour with the Batwa community (Pygmy people) at our request - would highly recommend this! He has a great sense of humour and was very efficient. I thought I was good at time keeping, he is even better!
Overall, the trip was a huge success and I am grateful for having chosen East African Jungle Safari.

A super complete tour of Uganda
Our trip to Uganda was marked by the great professionalism, humility, friendliness, and excellent knowledge of our guide, Andrew. From the very beginning, the manager of this company treated us very kindly, offering quite reasonable prices and giving us great confidence to go ahead with our tour.
It was a comprehensive journey across Uganda, where we were able to visit the best national parks, see chimpanzees, and, as the highlight, the gorillas in the Bwindi impenetrable forest. I also recommend taking the time to enjoy a cultural experience; in our case, we visited the Batwa community.
Andrew was an exceptional guide, always attentive to our needs and doing everything possible to make our experience wonderful. For him, the client comes first, and he goes above and beyond in every way. I would definitely recommend this company, and especially Andrew!

Caring and attentive
I went for a 3-day Gorilla Hiking experience and it was a once in a lifetime experience. The whole process was very straightforward, Ruth was there the whole time to present me the quotes and answer my questions promptly. I was picked up on time in Kigali by Ronnie, the driver who helped a lot in answering all the questions I had along the way.
They respected the quote 100%, so you really pay for what are being offered. Everything is so well organized, beginning with the crossing from Rwanda to Uganda, to the Batwa experience, to the Golden Monkey trekking and of course to the Gorilla trekking. I could not be any happier for having made my journey around Rwanda and Uganda with them.
I recommend East Africa Jungle Safari 100%. Don’t have a negative comment or even a suggestion to make. They sticked to their word and I really appreciate it. So thank you very much to all the EAJS team members, you allowed me to have a once in a lifetime experience I will never forget.

Amazing experience in Uganda!
My girlfriend and I decided to go with East African Jungle Safaris based on the glowing reviews and some online recommendations, and we were not disappointed. This was an extraordinary trip, with the gorillas and chimpanzee experiences as highlights. Fred, the owner was great, and very responsive. Our guide, Eddie, was professional, friendly, and very accommodating of all of our questions and requests. The lodges we stayed at were great and the itinerary overall was a good mix of doing a lot while also getting some time to relax at the end of long days. I would highly recommend going with East African Jungle Safaris!

Seamless, amazing experience. Best tour we’ve ever done
We chose this tour because we knew it was locally owned, ethical and very well priced compared to others. The tour exceeded expectations and Ronnie our driver was amazing. He was incredibly knowledgeable throughout the drive pointing out plants and crops and giving us additional information about Rwanda and Uganda. The communication from the tour was great. We were a little nervous because the website wasn’t flashy but everything was perfect.
The gorillas was a pretty life changing experience, they walked right around and past us and everyone was in awe. The groups are very small too to not upset the gorillas. Highly highly recommend. 10/10 experience

Terrific day trip from Kampala
All the arrangements went very smoothly.
The guide was knowledgeable, pleasant company, and a good driver.
The drive to the national park takes you through the heart of Uganda. Once there, you’ll easily find an amazing variety of mammals and birds (including the Grey Crowned Crane, Uganda's national bird). I visited only during the day, when the ‘prey’ animals are about and relatively unconcerned by a few tour vehicles.
Because I went in the off season, I was by myself, which probably raised the cost, but it was still worth it. The off season has advantages: the temperature was very pleasant, and the countryside was green.
I’d like to come again and spend a night or two, to experience the fauna and landscape at other hours. and not have so much driving on one day.

This was a smooth Adventure!
Our driver/guide Ronnie was great. He was always on time and was a careful and skilled driver. He provided a lot of commentary and knew a great deal about what we were seeing and what was knee to us. Everything worked out. Our tours and permits were fine. Everything on the ground went great.
