Kajie Safaris — 5 incredible days I will never forget !!
I had the most incredible experience with Kajie Safaris on their 5-day tour, which included Gorilla Tracking, Queen Elizabeth National Park, and Chimpanzee Tracking.
From start to finish, everything was flawlessly organized.
My guide and driver, Linus, was absolutely amazing — knowledgeable, funny, and a great conversationalist during the long drives. Most importantly, he consistently went above and beyond to make sure I had the most memorable experience possible — whether it was finding the perfect photography vantage point or surprising me with fresh passion fruit from a local market!
What I truly appreciated about Kajie Safaris was their flexibility and willingness to tailor the tour to my preferences. Linus often adjusted the itinerary on the spot to make sure I got the best out of every moment — and he succeeded beyond expectations.
The accommodations (Burunga Lodge and Elephant Hab Lodge) were both top-notch, and the food was excellent. The safari jeep was comfortable, and there was always plenty of water available throughout the trip.
Overall, I highly recommend Kajie Safaris to anyone looking for an authentic yet five-star Ugandan adventure. It was an experience I’ll never forget!

Nyungwe in 4 days
Our driver, Innocent, was excellent, as were our guides. We felt safe and adventurous. They were all very flexible, adjusting due to weather one evening, and our wish to do more birding. Everyone was on time, enthusiastic and ready to go. All had excellent English. We saw 7 species of primates, & 8 endemic species of birds, along with a viper snake, lizards, butterflies, and plants . We loved our experience!

Perfect safari experience with guide Deo! We saw the Big Five and many more animals
Our safari was absolutely perfect! We saw so many animals, including the Big Five, and our guide Deo was outstanding. He knew exactly where to go, shared fascinating details about all the animals, and was very flexible in following our wishes — like arranging breakfast and lunch boxes so we could spend more time out in the wild. Truly an unforgettable experience that we can highly recommend!

The communication before and during the safari was great! We was lucky too see the big 5! But this is also a perfect experience to see a lot of beautiful nature. The car and accommodation was also great! The guide had a lot of knowledge about the nature and animals!

One stop shop for the BEST travel experience.
Trying to book a trip halfway around the world is a daunting process-but Ozon Light Tours took care of everything and made it so easy! I started by asking about one of to stock trip itineraries and from there they tailored it to perfectly fit my days, budget, and goals. Yohana helped us to book everything and was so responsive with all of our questions. Then when our flights getting in were delayed, he was able to move everything around so that we didn't have to miss a minute. Airport pickups and dropoffs were smooth and simple-and all of our accommodations were wonderful.
Our safari guide, Innocent, was with us for all 4 days of our trip and we were so lucky to have him! Extremely knowledgeable, kind and fun to be around. We learned so much about both the wildlife and culture of Tanzania through him. 10000% would request to have him as a guide again. When complications on the trip came up (outside of the tours control) Innocent was able to help us with all adjustments. We felt very safe and taken care of the entire time.
Book with this tour company! You won't regret it.

Exceptional customer service and communication
With 1000s of tours and agencies available, the options can make your head spin. This review is to help you end your search. A big shout-out to Jane with Kiboko Tours!!! She was amazing and provided exceptional customer service and prompt communication. She was the most consistent and best at answering our endless questions that we had from over 10 different agencies. We wanted to switch some accommodations around to fit our needs of wanting a mix of luxury and camp options based on the research we did and Jane made it happen, even with less that 2 weeks notice. Jane is truly the reason we booked w Kiboko Tours & Travel LTD.
Next, our guide/driver Danson (Dan) was amazing!!! He was super knowledgeable and he knew the roads in all the parks like the back of his hand and I can't recommend him enough.
We originally wanted to witness the great migration but due to being 10 days late, we missed that opportunity. I can say that this did not affect our experience negatively in any way. In fact the parks were quieter which was a bonus in my opinion. We had a perfect mix of camps and luxury lodges. We paid around $2,500 for our 7D/8N tour which was right at the high end of our budget. In the end it was well worth it for the whole experience. I can highly recommend Kiboko Tours and Travel LTD to anyone looking for a seamless experience before as well as during your tour.
For people trying to make their decision, these are some recommendations I have for you.
1. A Landrover truck is a must for comfort off-road and capability.
2. Pop-up roof for photography is a must
3A. Masaii Mara- Not to be missed. Have down the best park for unlimited animals.
3B. For a middle budget option the Oseki Masaii Mara Camp was amazing! The tents were more luxury than we expected. The food was fantastic. The staff were Masaii that spoke great English and were a highlight for us with their friendly and fun personalities. Location was super close to the gate.
4A. Lake Nakuru- This Park is not to be missed. It has incredible scenery.
4B. Maila Saba Camp. Amazing luxury camp with stunning views of Menengai Crater and fantastic food. Though further away, you will not regret this incredible "camp".
5A. Amboseli- Amazing but dusty. View of Mt. Kili if lucky. Massive herds of elephants.
5B. Both Amboseli Sopa Lodge and Kibo Safari Camp were incredible and luxurious. Both had great food and a pool. Both had views of Mt. Kili. in the morning if the weather is clear though I personally think the view from Aboseli Sopa was slightly better but this is a personal opinion. You can't go wrong with either.
6. Salt Lick Safari Lodge - this was our personal favorite accommodation and I cannot recommend it enough. We even decided to forgo our morning drive to chill with some peace and quiet while watching lions in the area that were patiently waiting for the right animal to make the wrong move. Unfortunately a couple buffalo's sniffed them out to uncover their prime grassy location to all the other animals in the area. Still the coolest experience with the water holes so close by. The food was also amazing here. Truly incredible!
7. Tsavo West NP- Incredible landscape!

I cannot imagine traveling to Uganda with any guide other than Kibale Ronnie.
My experience traveling to Uganda, both in July and later in November, was enhanced by the knowledge that our guide had of not only the terrain but also the varied cultures embedded in the cities, villages and bush areas that we traveled. There wasn't a moment that I felt unsafe. And our guide, Ronnie was kind, considerate and very entertaining! I hope to return.
