Look no further. This is the tour to book!
Amazing!!! This is the tour to BOOK!!!! I know the choices of tours are overwhelming. I promise you this is an excellent tour and worth every penny as it is a great value for all you do and see.Ronald (the owner) and Ben (our guide) made sure we had a great experience. We had all sorts of problems with our Visa (my fault) and they completely took care of us . From the moment we arrived to when we left 7 days later, Ben (our guide) was attentive making sure we always were happy, comfortable,FUN, safe and he was extremely knowledgeable sharing all he knows about wild life and Uganda culture with us. As a former park ranger, Ben has a gifted eye for spotting all the cool wile life. We saw it all as a result of Ben making it happen for us every day. The mini van they use to transport us (was not fancy but it was super comfy and safe getting through all those crazy roads in the mountains. The cool looking Land cruisers are not near as comfy and the way they lift the roof off their vehicle allows for amazing views in comfort and safety. All the accommodations were FANTASTIC not fancy but super clean, and all of the lodges were unique with private bungalows in natural picturesque settings. Nothing cheesy and nothing dirty. The service at all the lodges and restaurants they took us to provided us with legendary service especially Bweza Lodge. Each restaurant Ben brought us to served amazing meals and we are vegetarians and every single one of them accommodated us perfectly. I can not say enough positive stuff about Ben! We travel all around the world and have done tours like this before, This was TOPS!

Fantastic tour operator!
Everything was organised perfectly. Ron has a great relationship with all the staff and locals along the way and ensures everything runs smoothly. All food and accommodation was excellent. So much was packed into the trip but it never felt rushed or stressful.

First Class experience
We had an amazing trip with Ronald at Kajie safaris. Lodges were beautiful, the chimp trekking and game drives were fantastic but the highlight was by far the gorilla trekking experience. I would highly recommend them and will be sure to use them again in the future

Amazing Safari Experience with Kajie
I just came back from a 16 days Safari tour in Uganda with the local tour operator Kajie Safaris
The communication with Ronald Muvunyi - managing director- was from the first day excellent. Ronald is easily accessible and flexible. The program was custom made and changes were possible where needed. The necessary COVID test were very well organized. Ronald gave good advice in time before the journey about all necessary paperwork and waited for me at the Airport. He was also very helpful during the whole process entering the country.
All the accommodations were were wisely chosen, comfortable, clean and had a nice atmosphere with excellent friendly staff.
Ronald has a wide network, connections, informations were exchanged easily.
During the tour we used a powerful vehicle with open roof to get the best view during the game drive. Unavoidable engine problems were solved quickly and without negative effect on the program.
The food was tasteful, clean everywhere and personal dietary wishes were taken into account.
Ronald is an enthousiast service oriented professional driver, guide , friendly and has a huge knowledge about his land, the wildlife, customs, history. That makes him a pleasant travel companion.
I recommend to visit Uganda to every nature lovers , as it really deserves it’s name : The Pearl of Afrika

Truly Breathtaking 7-Day Trip!
Absolutely every element of my 7-day trip was incredibly amazing! I've been to some fantastic locations before, but this tops the list and Kajie Tours was the key piece in making it so successful. From the beginning when I was considering the safari to taking off at the end of the trip, they were always ready to fully answer my many questions, make suggestions for the best possible outcome, and ensure everything went smoothly (a particularly difficult goal during pandemic times).
Ronald, my guide, was perfect! He was a wealth of knowledge about everything in Uganda, including the history, current trends, wildlife, destinations, and more. I was solo on this trip, so having a great guide is even more important - truly a total professional and a pleasure to spend time with. He was always ready to be companionable during the trip and at destinations, but also let me have space to explore alone (or take a nap) when needed. Anytime I mentioned being interested in something, he made it came true - from finding a chameleon to trying a number of particular local foods/drinks. I couldn't have wished for a better guide.
Regarding the trip itself, we did chimp trekking in Kibale, gorilla trekking in Bwindi, and game drives/boat rides in Queen Elizabeth & Lake Mburo. Highly recommend trying to fit as many game drives in as possible, especially in the early morning and late evening. All the accommodations were wonderful (in the thick of nature) and the food was always great (and fresh!). It's worth it to get some freshly picked/roasted/brewed coffee and to try the fresh banana gin.
Wholeheartedly recommend the trip with Kajie Safaris to anyone thinking about visiting Uganda!!!

Uganda Roadtrip 2020
If you’re looking for an excellent and reliable tour operator, look no further than Kajie Safaris!
Our trip to Uganda was cancelled twice this year due to COVID, but finally we managed to jump on a plane when Africa reopened it borders. Ronald constantly provided us with updates on the local situation, responded quickly to questions and was extremely helpful and flexible in setting up our Ugandan adventure.
We had the most amazing 10 day vacation. Not only did Ronald treat us like family but everything was perfectly organized according to the itinerary we wanted. Ronald is knowledgeable, kind, has a great sense of humor and quickly sorted out challenges, like arranging a last minute PCR test before flying home.
We have not only gathered incredible memories, but we left Uganda with a new friend and look forward to coming back again next year. We love Ronald and Kajie Safaris!

Ronald from Kajie was great but not a good experience with our guide
Ronald at Kajie Safaris was so wonderful in preparing a great itinerary for myself and my mid twenties daughter. He was quick to respond to questions (and there were many) and he was really flexible even when we had to make a late change to our dates and perhaps if he had been our guide our safari would have been better. Our guide (more a driver than a guide) was Wycliffe and he was awful. He was rude, unhelpful and didn't tell us information we needed for different game parks. We would arrive and then he would tell us we needed certain things which we had back at the camp, he deliberately didn't tell us things until it was too late. We had to ask him for information about what we were doing the next day he would just tell us to be ready at a certain time without any reason such as we need to get a 7am ferry! He seemed to have a set against us from the beginning he didn't even step forward at the airport or hold the sign up (that he had in his hand ),we had to ask if any of the drivers there was Wycliffe. We had to write to Ronald and tell him half way through it was that bad and after a phone call to Wycliffe his behaviour did improve but that shows how deliberate his actions were. When we were on game drives with the roof off, he would leave the motor running (which is not normal as you want to get rid of the vibration when taking photos) and then roll forward and hit the brakes so you would fall forward. He took off when he was ready, never asking if we were ready again something I have never experienced with our previously expert guides, they would always ask right to go? I have been on 4 safaris and about 10 game drives so I think I can compare and we have never had anything but wonderful treatment from our guides. I don't blame Ronald or Kajie Safaris so don't punish them just make sure your guide is not Wycliffe before you book.

Professional company that can accommodate your every need
We are 3 photographers who had the luck of traveling with Kajie Safaris lead by Ronald and Ben Ejadu, our lovely tour.
We visited everything in our itinerary, stayed at lovely places with great facilities and nice view, had great food along the way and all together had the best time !
Ben, our guide, was very knowledgeable, about Uganda history, culture, the local wildlife and birds, and I made sure to challenge him with many questions (:
The company made sure to be flexible and to accommodate every need we had, especially as photographers (like getting back at the evening to the reserve to get a second chance to see the lions).
We were all very happy and can recommend easily on these fabulous guys, who made this trip a once in a life time experience !
They even surprised me with a birthday party and cake (: Go Kajie !
