Amazing trip with an exceptional Tour guide (Brian)!
My 5 day Gorilla and Chimp trekking trip with Kajie Safaris was excellent and very smooth. My tour guide Brian was constantly making sure I had everything I needed to have a great trip. He really went above and beyond anything I expected! It was just me and the guide and we spent many hours together in the van learning about Uganda and the history of the 5 kingdoms. He always knew where we were going, the best roads to take and seemed to know all of the park rangers and staff everywhere. I highly recommend Brian as your guide!
The only potential drawback on the whole trip, would be to confirm the vehicle you are travelling. While my trip was just me, the van we travelled worked great. However, if you are in a group (most likely) for safari comfort and visibility to the wildlife I suggest confirming the vehicle type.
On my trip I spent two nights at the Bweza Gorilla Lodge: highly recommend, very intimate location (only 6 rooms), very friendly staff, and excellent food. Not much of a bar selection, so maybe bring your own alcohol if interested. For QEP, I stayed at the Elephant HAB Lodge for 2 nights. Also, very comfortable, nice views, good pool (although with all the adventures, not really much time to swim).
Overall, I had a great experience dealing with Kajie Safaris. Ronald was very quick to respond to questions and modifying trip details as necessary. Definitely recommend using them to book your trip, but do be proactive about reaching out for any details as the trip date approaches.

Ronald made it a trip of a lifetime
Kajie Safaris was absolutely the best. From day one, designing the trip with us to helping us with needed paperwork and packing lists to being there for us the day we arrived until the day we left. The accommodations were top notch. Loved the private villas with all the fabulous views. We throughly enjoyed the game drives seeing multiple species of antelope, baboons, monkeys, giraffes, elephants, zebra, water buffalo, lions and leopards. We did the rhino sanctuary and saw a rhino family. The chimpanzee trek was great. The gorilla trek was amazing and we were entertained by a baby for gorilla for an hour. Uganda food is organic and delicious. A special thanks to our guide, Ronald, who made this a trip of a lifetime. The price was more than reasonable and the service we got was unbelievably great.

Absolutely amazing experience.
We did about two weeks with Katie. Ronald put together our trip, and Simon was our guide. I have nothing but great things to say a bout the entire experience. Ronald was attentive and made great decisions with regards to stops and places to stay. As a guide, Simon was amazing. He was so attentive and has an amazing eye for spotting all kinds of great wildlife! He was so incredibly kind to our 10-year old daughter. He made sure there were lollipops in the backseat for her, and once when she complained that her feet were cold, he stopped and returned with a pair of socks for her! He was incredibly knowledgeable and really ensured that we learned a lot during our time. He was fantastic and accommodated special needs and figured out what our family members all enjoyed. I cannot recommend Kajie more. They will truly give you an Ugandan experience to remember forever.

Amazing honeymoon in Uganda
We chose to spend our honeymoon in Uganda and could not recommend this tour enough! From the beginning Ronald was friendly and attentive and well informed. He even bought us snacks and allowed us to pick our own meals, it really felt like we were travelling with a friend, which he soon became! The choices of lodge were beautiful and all in the most scenic settings I could imagine. We wanted to visit Lake Bunyonyi in addition and be dropped in Jinja, Ronald accommodated all of these requests with no hesitation or stress involved. The gorillas were a truly unforgettable experience but the wildlife was abundant everywhere and we really fell in love with Uganda. Thank you! Do not hesitate if considering this trip.

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!

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
