About This Tour

Uganda's Kibale National Park is Africa's undisputed primate capital. This 3-day deep-dive combines the famous chimpanzee trekking with a full suite of primate encounters and a guided night walk through the forest.

Bigodi Wetland Sanctuary on the park edge harbours L'Hoest's monkeys, red-tailed monkeys, olive baboons, and the elusive sitatunga antelope in a community-managed wetland that generates income for local families.

With expert naturalist guides, this trip is also a birdwatcher's delight — Kibale harbours over 375 species including the African Pitta and the Green-breasted Pitta.
