4-Day Day Bwindi Gorilla & Kibale Chimpanzee Trek Safari

You will be collected from your Entebbe home early morning and begin a picturesque journey over the countryside to Kibale National Park, well-known for wild chimpanzee trekking. Lunch will be on the way, and you will be crossing the verdant countryside. Arriving depending on the time, you may conduct a Bigodi Swamp walk, where numerous tropical birds and monkeys will be seen. One may also visit the Bigodi settlement to discover the everyday way of life of the people living close to the park. You will come across more, as well as the local coffee-making.

Following an early breakfast, we will travel to the world-class primate capital Kibale National Park for a lecture on trekking chimpanzees. Here, we will spend many hours following and watching wild chimpanzees on foot under the direction of your knowledgeable local ranger guide, who intimately knows the troop members and will analyze their behavior. Thirteen different types of primates call Kibale Forest home. After your return, travel picturesquely to Bwindi Impenetrable National Park, arriving in dusk.

Following breakfast, we will gather at the headquarters of the national park for a thorough briefing before setting out on foot to monitor mountain gorillas under local community guide direction. Given that only one group is permitted to observe each gorilla family daily and group numbers are small, this unique encounter is a genuine luxury. Viewing permits are thus almost rarer than the gorillas! Though sometimes elusive, the professional local tracker guide usually finds the gorillas in an hour or more. Looking into the eyes of these gentle giants and seeing them play and go about their everyday lives is a highly emotionally poignant once-in- a-lifetime event. Every interaction with the gorillas is unique and has benefits; nonetheless, you will probably like the close-up view of adults tending to, grooming, and relaxing while the young romp and swing from vines in a wonderfully entertaining exhibition. You will get a hike certificate and drive to your resort for leisure on your return.

You will start your travel to Entebbe Airport for your departing flight back home today after an early breakfast. You may snap pictures to save as memories and enjoy lunch en-route near the equator line in Kayabwe. You will arrive in the evening.
