Safari Holidays

Kibale National Park

Home to the highest number and diversity of primates in East Africa, a trip to Kibale National Park is bound to make any Uganda safari holiday special. Chimpanzees are the main attraction and live within the tropical forests that fill the park. Venture out with an expert guide into the verdant greenery to see if you can spot some of our closest relatives. Also keep your eyes peeled for black and white colobus monkeys, grey cheeked mangabey and red tailed monkeys swinging high up in the trees. If these apes are your thing, spend a day enjoying a Chimpanzee Habituation Experience, where you will be able to watch chimpanzees leave their overnight nests before feeding, hunting and resting throughout the day. You will really get to know these amazing creatures.

Bwindi Impenetrable Forest

As another prime primate territory, Bwindi Impenetrable Forest is home to half of the world’s remaining mountain gorilla population. This ancient habitat is blanketed in thick, steamy jungle, which is the perfect home for these large alpine apes. With 120 species of animal and 346 species of bird filling this landscape, you won’t be short of wildlife spotting. Head out with a group of expert guides and spend days trekking through sweaty forests in search of these hairy beasts. Once you find them, sitting quietly under the jungle canopy in a big family unit, you won’t ever forget it. Head back down the mountain on a gorilla-induced cloud of wonder, making for the perfect end to a Uganda safari holiday.
