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.

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.

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! 🫶🏻

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.

We came to see animals- but left fallen in love with the people and the country
Uganda was trip with high expectations from our side. First time on the African continent, first time with a a tour operator and a guide to plan our journey.
After an extensive research, we get a pretty good idea what we wanted to see and with whom we wanted to do the trip.
The reviews for Kajie were great, so we decided to give it a try - and they delivered a world class service, Including every idea we had in our trip, always responding quick, very transparent in the pricing, and very flexible, and always friendly.
So we felt in good hands starting the trip.
Arriving in Entebbe on our 15 day trip all these high expectations have not only been matched, they have been surpassed dramatically.
And you cant talk about exceeding expectations without speaking about one guy Andrew Murari. Andrew is just ticking all boxes you can expect, an excellent driver through all the difficult conditions, we have been challenged with, and expert for every animal you can encounter, and we did encounter many. Fluent in many languages, equipped with a great network to get the best out of every game drive and lunch stop. Andrew has a combination of being ambitious, stubborn and patient which results in making sure you not going home with without seeing every single thing you wanted to see, even if you start to loose hope, he will never give up.
He is great teacher and ambassador for his country giving you the right mix of knowledge about country and people without feeling beeing in a lecture.But most important he is a great human being, respectful, reliable and incredible funny. It will be 100% not our last trip with him, and when you want to make the same experience ask for him.
The lodges where amazing and we would love to stays for a longer time in every of them. Kidepo Savannah Lodge has been our a favourite, as Kidepo was our favorite region and park in Uganda. But KaJie also surprised us with an upgrade to Buffalo Safari Lodge in QNP which was an awesome experience. So the review comes to an end and we have still not mentioning animals. So even without all the encounter it would be a great trip but, being close to baby gorillas and a silverback, walking with giraffes and rhinos, spotting leopards, and lions, seeing a pyhton eating and antelope, being among chimpanzees and golden monkeys. If you want to have the journey of a lifetime go to Uganda book with Katje and drive with Andrew. Thank you for giving us this experience.
