Pamoja Tours, truly no other way!!!
5/5

I spent 5 weeks in the beautiful country of Uganda. There is no way I could have had a better experience. Extremely knowledgeable of everything the country has to offer, and the company was even better. Very loving and dedicated to everything that Pamoja Tours says it has to offer. Honestly, didn’t just meet a tour guide but a lifelong friend, (Amos Kaggwa) thank you for doing what you do. God bless you always, and thank you for an unforgettable amazing experience. If you make it to Africa, you definitely need to experience it with Pamoja Tours!

Pamoja Tours were great, even individualized our Murchison Falls Safari!
5/5

The office staff (Regina) listened to our needs, noting our limited budget and time and individualized the 3 day safari in Murchison Falls to suit those needs. They were FULL days but such a beautiful adventure thanks to Amos, our guide who was both an excellent driver and incredibly knowledgeable and engaging. We saw all of the big 5 (elephants, lions, leopards, rhinos, water buffalo) plus giraffes, antelope of different species, baboons, monkeys, hippo, crocodiles and birds, butterflies, bugs and lizards of all kinds. Finishing the tour at the magnificent Murchison Falls was a perfect ending. Highly recommend this company and both Regina as the tour arranger and Amos as a guide. They even did pick up and drop off at our hotel in Kampala. Ask about any personalizations you might need!

Great for families!
5/5

Sperito was easy to communicate with. He was prompt with replies for questions we had. He made the experience so easy! We just had to get there and he did the rest. There was always plenty of bottled water in the van. He was great with our children and they felt very comfortable. He was very accommodating even when we needed to change our itinerary a bit. We had an amazing time traveling through Uganda, going on safari, zip lining, quad biking, and relaxing at Wild Waters Lodge. The experience and the professionalism of Pamoja Tours and Travel was excellent! We will definitely be back.

Top Notch Customer Service!
5/5

From the first communication with Pamoja Tours and Travel, I knew we would have a fantastic experience. It was an absolutely wonderful experience. They were always quick to respond when I had questions. They helped us get to our hotel from the airport, stopping along the way to exchange some money. Our safari was so, so fun! Our guides and driver seemed to enjoy the trip as much as we did! I cannot recommend this company high enough!

Amazing Experience with Pamoja Tours
5/5

If you are traveling to East Africa you have to let Pamoja tours take care of your travel details. The team was amazing and personable and so delightful to work with. They made international travel simple and easy. From scheduling our days, to coordinating our safari, to making sure we got from one location to the next seamlessly they took amazing care of our tour group. I will highly recommend this company to any friends traveling to East Africa and hope to use them again for future travel plans. They are awesome to work with!

Friendly and accommodating.
4/5

My wife and I had a wonderful time on our three day, two night stay on Ssese Island. While we experienced a few small hiccups during our time, they were addressed by hotel staff with assistance from Christine, our Pamoja coordinator.

Apart from our time lounging at the resort’s beach, our favorite highlight was the canoe ride, in which two locals rowed us about, showing us Ssese’s natural beauty from atop Lake Victoria’s tranquil waters. We also quite enjoyed the nature walk that also gave us a glimpse into life in nearby Kalangala town.

Christine herself was a lovely and friendly guide to have with us during our stay. She was enthusiastic and fun throughout. There were times, however, that we could have been afforded slightly more space to enjoy our stay as a couple but Christine was a helpful companion. Her services really shined when we were booking our trip. She gracefully and painlessly accommodated a change in our reservation dates and place of pickup. We were very grateful to her for all her help with logistics.

Overall, our time in Ssese was fantastic and all too brief. It’s a short ferry ride from Entebbe, but a world away. Treat yourself to experiencing Ssese’s natural, restorative beauty. We absolutely plan to return and would book again.

Best tour provider in Uganda/Rwanda!
5/5

We chose Pamoja for our 9-day Uganda/Rwanda trip and it was the best choice we ever made! The initial planning and coordination with Regina was amazing - fast and responsive and very flexible with changes we wanted to make to customize our trip. Upon arrival everything was smoothly coordinated and all ran according to plan. Allan, our guide, was a legend and we really enjoyed the entire trip with him. One of the best moments came when towards the end of our trip we wanted to make a change to the itinerary and stay an extra night at a hotel we really liked. The communication with Sperito and the whole team was seamless and they were able to coordinate the change with no problems. I wouldn’t change a single thing about our trip and itinerary and it was all due to the professionalism and general good vibes of the Pamoja team. Will certainly use them again when I return to the region!

Safari experience with more than you are expecting
5/5

On February 2024 we were on a stunning 10-days safari tour with our beloved company Pamoja! We were relieved to find such trustable and honest people in this company. 🙏🏼

When you book your safari from far away it's always a gamble to decide who you should trust. Via Whatsapp Pamoja gained our trust by giving us all the informations with pictures and videos we needed to see. We did the 40% payment in advance and hoped this company really exists. They do, haha. They organized everything from our pick up at the airport to our very last day of our trip! We were blessed with the confidence they gave us and the professionalism these guys operated with.

Pamoja helped us in any situation and was even flexible in extending our itinerary as we asked them to do so. They informed us about the fair prices and made the bookings rapidly after we wished for it.

With our guide David Katantazi we were more than happy! He is an invaluable person with great experience and a very comfortable way of treatment. The way he adapted to our wishes and concerns is remarkable, we have no words to thank him. His driving style is calm and secure, we enjoyed every hour in his car, the time flew by so rapidly! David had very interesting things to tell us about his wonderful country and I'm honored, that he and the people we met on our way, were open to share their culture with us like they did. We felt very welcome!

I haven't described all the impressive things we have seen on our journey because that would let this review explode, haha. Apart from all the wonderful animals sightings that nature blessed us with, we could see breathtaking landscapes, get inspiring insight into Uganda's culture and experience all the warmheartedness of the ugandan people. David took us everywhere we wanted to go. I recomend every national park, but especially the ones with Gorillas and Chimps, as they are also a good variation to the safaris in car.

Thank you Pamoja for this inspiring experience! It changed our way of looking at things and we made a lot of friends on this journey! We liked it so much that we are thinking about comming back within one or two years, lets hope to meet again soon!☺️🫶🏼

Best regards, Jonathan!

Very pleased!
5/5

We've recently finished a 10 day tour of Uganda with Pamoja Travels, visiting the Ziwa Rhino sanctuary, Murchison Falls, Queen Elizabeth National Parks, Lake Bunyonyi, and Gorilla and Chimp trekking.

As budget travellers, we shopped around a lot of tour companies and looked for ways to do it ourselves, but we couldn't see how it could be done any cheaper. Pamoja were by far the cheapest, and best value company for our itinerary.

An amazing adventure packed with several once in a lifetime moments; we couldn't have been happier with the experience and the beauty Uganda has to offer.

We were surprised by the great standard of food and accommodation we we're given, considering we were on a budget tour, with some really cool lodges along the way.

Our guide Fred was extremely friendly and knowledgeable and we we're really pleased with the flexibility he allowed us, and the prompt and professional manner in which he and the office dealt with a discrepancy on the itinerary.

Upon arrival at the airport we also met the owner, and the planner who had been our main point of contact, which was a really reassuring sign that we were in good hands.

The only downside on the whole trip was the speed of the car, as it seemed to struggle on main roads, which may have added a couple of hours to the longer drives.

Great value for money, amazing service and one of the most diverse, friendly and interesting countries we have been to - would definitely recommend Pamajo Travels!!

Thanks again from Joe, Jackie and Mama!!

Great
5/5

We did as a couple an 8 day safari (mid range) with Pajoma in Uganda. Everything was well planned. Our guide Letisha, probably one of the very very few female guides was perfect! We saw all the animals we expected, including a leopard. The chimpanzee and gorilla tracking were great. All lodges were good and the food was always arranged with us, also for vegetarians there was always something. Only the hotel in kampala disappointed us, I would like to book another hotel in the future. All in all a trip that we would repeat immediately!
