This unforgettable 8-day luxury primate safari offers a rare opportunity to come face to face with man’s closest cousins—mountain gorillas and chimpanzees—while immersing yourself in the natural beauty and rich biodiversity of Uganda. The journey takes you deep into the lush rainforests of Bwindi Impenetrable National Park, where you’ll experience the once-in-a-lifetime thrill of tracking endangered mountain gorillas on foot, observing their behavior up close in their natural habitat. In Kibale Forest, you'll encounter playful chimpanzees and listen to the sounds of the jungle come alive around you. Beyond primates, your adventure continues with scenic game drives across savannah landscapes, tranquil boat cruises along wildlife-rich waterways, and a chance to spot the elusive tree-climbing lions in Ishasha. You’ll also engage with local communities through cultural walks and village visits, offering meaningful insight into the traditions and daily life of the people who call this vibrant country home.
