Born From a Passion for Africa

MJ Safaris Uganda was founded in 2013 by James Mwere, an experienced safari guide whose passion for Uganda's wildlife, people, and landscapes inspired him to build a company focused on authentic travel experiences.

Today, we proudly organize tailor-made safaris across Uganda, Rwanda, Tanzania, and the Democratic Republic of Congo for individuals, families, couples, photographers, researchers, and corporate groups.
