Overview
This 6-day itinerary pairs Uganda's two signature primate experiences: gorilla trekking in Bwindi Impenetrable Forest, and chimpanzee tracking in Kibale Forest — a genuinely complete primate-focused trip covering both of the country's most sought-after encounters.
The gorilla trekking days involve a hike of variable length through dense forest to reach a habituated family, followed by a regulated hour observing them at close range. Kibale's chimpanzee tracking offers a different pace and terrain, through forest with one of the highest primate densities in Africa.
Given the popularity of both experiences, we recommend booking this itinerary with reasonable lead time to secure permits for your preferred dates.
See our gorilla tracking guide, or contact us to check permit availability for both parks.
