Passionate friendly people who do all they can to make sure you are happy
I emailed Kajie Safaris after finding them on safaribookings. At the time, i was not sure if i should book with a bigger international company that had more reviews on safaribookings or if i should book with Kajie who only had a few reviews, although Kajie was highly rated. After exchanging some emails with Ronald and seeing how flexible, responsive and friendly he was compared to the other tour operators i was dealing with, i chose Kajie. The price was better than the other operators i had contacted for the same exact tour/specifications and Ronald was more genuine than the others.
Initially we had booked the tour for three people.
The day before we were set to travel, a friend decided they would like to join our trip as well. I message Ronald on the night before we were traveling to ask if we could change the bookings to accommodate 4 people rather than 3, and he was so helpful and sorted everything out for us. I don't think you can get that sort of service from another company.
Ronald and Hamida took us around Uganda. They made sure they showed us every amazing view they knew about, all the best photo spots. They were very friendly, and the general feeling was that they were more like friends showing us their country, than just our tour guides. We were very comfortable with them.
You can tell they love what they do and they want you to experience the best they can offer. Even while there, if you decide you would like to change something in the tour they are happy to make it happen.
We had an amazing time. Thank you Ronald and Hamida!

Great tour guide and itinerary. Beautiful country and wildlife.
Ronald was a great tour guide for my week in Uganda. His communication and organization were first rate. The accommodation and food was also excellent, especially considering the remote location of some of the sites. If possible, I would time my arrival and departure from Entebbe and Kampala to try and avoid the traffic, which can be really bad. Great tour!
Kajie Safaris helped enhanced my travel experiences in Uganda
Ronnie helped to organise my safaris to Kidepo and Lake Mburo, gorilla tracking in Bwindi Impenetrable National Park as well as site-seeing visits in Lake Bunyonyi and Kampala. Ronnie is an extremely friendly and sincere tour guide. When you talk to him, you feel that he is listening to you, which not only makes for good companionship on the long drives but also enables him to tailor the travel to suit your interests. This is key; he has the knowledge and the contacts to make your trip to Uganda a better experience. He does this in a way that is not stifling, or pressuring you in any way to go to certain places or do certain things. He just facilitates the discussion to find out what you want to get from your Uganda experience, and then does his best to make it happen. During the visit itself he is flexible, willing to adjust the programme to match changing expectations. He is also extremely patient. I never once saw him lose his temper or get flustered, even in some stressful driving situations, which has the effect of making you feel at ease and enables the whole experience to be more enjoyable. I therefore highly recommend Ronnie and his company to all travellers going to Uganda.

Amazing 7 Day Uganda Safari with Kajie and Uncle Bob
Had an amazing seven day Safari with Kajie Safaris to Kampala, Kibale, Queen Elizabeth and Bwindi (staying at Cassia Lodge, Turaco Treetops, the Bush Lodge and Bweza). The accommodations were fantastic and each had a ton of character and great service. The food was excellent as well. Bob (Aka “Uncle Bob”) was our guide. Bob is one of the friendliest and most personable people I have ever met. It was an an absolute pleasure spending the week with Bob. Bob did everything possible to make us comfortable and made the effort to teach us about local culture and show us local food. My wife is allergic to nuts and Bob made sure all of our food was safe, keeping our mind at ease. Seeing the Gorillas in Bwindi was an amazing once in a lifetime experience. While there can be some steep parts, the park rangers are great at helping everyone along and it is a near certainty that you will see the Gorillas up close. We had a great time on our Uganda Safari and I would highly recommend going with Kajie Safaris and Uncle Bob.

A wonderful experience from beginning to end
We recently had an unforgettable safari adventure with Kajie Safaris and it exceeded all expectations. Our journey was meticulously crafted, offering a perfect blend of adventure, wildlife encounters, and cultural immersion. Roland was extremely attentive and helpful in the planning and execution of the trip. He even checked in after our trip to confirm it was everything we wanted.
Led by the exceptional guide, Zacc, every moment was filled with excitement and discovery. The highlight of our safari was undoubtedly the gorilla trekking experience in Uganda. It was a profound and humbling encounter that will stay with me forever. Additionally, the walking safari in Lake Mburro provided an unique perspective, allowing us to intimately explore the diverse ecosystems and observe wildlife up close.
Zacc's expertise and passion for the land and its inhabitants truly made the journey exceptional. His extensive knowledge of the wildlife, local customs, and landscapes enriched our experience beyond measure. Moreover, his friendly demeanor and genuine care ensured that we felt not just like tourists, but like friends exploring together. I cannot recommend Kajie Safaris and Zacc highly enough for an unparalleled safari adventure that will leave you with cherished memories to last a lifetime.

Best safari ever!! Thank to KAJIE !!
We are just back from the best trip of our lives! I was planning this holiday since so much time as it was a birthday present for my partner,when I bumped into KAJIE I felt it was the right one, and I wasn’t wrong! Ronald before ours leaving was just perfect the communication was great, he planned everything perfect and reply to all the questions I had. When we arrived we met Bob. Let me tell you about”uncle Bob”: he’s a perfect driver, a good listener and full of knowledge. He bring us everywhere and also he made for us some changes during our stay that put the level of our 10 days safari even more high. We can’t complain about anything. The lodges were amazing, tidy, cozy, the people were all so kind that it’s impossible to describe. He also organized for us an extra activity just because he heard us talking at dinner about this beautiful bird called Shoebill, and, thank to him we have been able to stay in the swamp looking for him. Absolutely fantastic!!!
This whole trip was amazing, the safaris were terrific and thanks to bob we spotted all the Big five plus thousand of marvelous animals.
Please trust me when I say the KAJIE safari will not disappoint you. Never.
Thank you KAJIE for giving us the best days in such beautiful country. With love

It is not often you meet something that exceeds your wildest expectations, but Kajie sure did.
Back in January 2023 my friend and I started planning to go to Uganda to visit the mountain gorillas of the misty Bwindi mountains. It had been the lifelong dream of my friend and I was not hard to talk into it. We did a lot of research on which company to use and settled on Kajie Safari after seeing what they offered compared to other companies. We got in contact with Ronald and since the first email we got to experience the immense hospitality and professionalism from Ronald and his crew. Every question we had, both big and small, was answered quickly and with great care and interest. That meant we had great faith in Kajie already before stepping onto Ugandan soil.
We arrived to Uganda in late January and there we first met Ronald who fetched us from the airport and was as friendly as we could have imagines. A day later we met our guide for the 10 day trip we settled for. From the get go we were so happy because Martin was the best possible guide we could have hoped for. Calm, great listener, great knowledge, great humour and with great people skills. We were a bit nervous before the trip since going around the country for 10 days with a stranger can be difficult but Martin made us feel so comfortable and after a few days it was as if we were three friends driving around. You could tell he was very senior and well connected making our trip even more exclusive while answering any questions we had about Uganda and it's culture and history. Martin always had our best interest at heart and found solutions and adventures that we didn't even know was on the menu. Kajie definitely delivers that little bit of extra, going above and beyond what we got read about in the pamphlet. We've been so lucky chosing Kajie and having Martin as our guide. All the lodges we stayed at were amazing and some of them had among the greatest of views which could trick you into just wanting to stay there a few more weeks.
We felt completely safe the whole trip and fell in love with the beautiful landscape and the hospitality of the people we met. It is a true testiment to Kajie Safari that I haven't even mentioned yet all the great amimal encounters we had on our trip. We saw everything we could have dreamed of and more. Close encounters with all big five and more. Relaxing evening drives, fun hikes that can be adapted to your level, exciting night drives, wonderfully breezy boat trips and early morning cat tracking. Meeting gorillas, elephants, lions, chimps and leopards. And when I say close I mean staring into the eyes of the most wonderful creatures and seeing their intelligence reflect back. This was an experience beyond all others and I would recommend anyone choosing Kajie for your Uganda adventure and ask for Martin as you guide. I am sure we will be back in the future. THANK YOU!

Amazing, incredible, fantastic, shall I say more?
Let me start by saying if you are considering booking with Kajie safaris, ask for Martin!! He was incredible and made it his mission to make it the best possible trip! I left just in awe of what we (my friend and I) were able to experience in 9 days. The trip was planned and executed perfectly, Ronald was amazing at helping us craft a perfect trip! I will be back and I will be requesting Martin! Take this as your sign to book the trip!
