About this experience

Join us for an unforgettable eight-day Uganda Primates & Wildlife Safari, where you'll have the chance to observe gorillas and chimpanzees up close, take scenic game drives through the savanna plains, and immerse yourself in Ugandan culture.

Your adventure begins in Entebbe, where you will embark on a scenic road trip across Uganda to the Impenetrable Forest. Here, you will spend two nights exploring the gorilla jungle. On your way to Kibale, the chimpanzee kingdom, you can experience a classic safari and witness majestic animals such as tree-climbing lions, elephants, hippos, and buffalo. After spending another two nights in the primate capital, you will return to Entebbe.
