Tracking the chimpanzee is a very interesting experience. The way they feed, climb trees, respond to humans, caring for their young ones, is just phenomenal. There are three chimpanzee groups in Kibale Forest National Park which are habituated and only six people per group in the morning and evening session. Kibale has over 1450 chimpanzees which represents Uganda's largest population... More

Unfortunately it had rained before and Chimps don't like wet ground, so they stayed high up in the trees. The forest itself is beautiful as well. Great way to spend half a day in the wild. More

As it is a small group (Ranger plus max of 4) it would seem that you get much closer to the chimps than often happens during the larger group chimp walks. The trekking is hard though as you... More

I again was the only person in this absolutely beautiful little home on the side of a mountain, overlooking a crater lake and surrounded by tea plantations. It was unbelievable. Spent the evening talking with the family... More
