5-Day Gorillas, Chimpanzees & Queen Elizabeth Safari

🐾 5-DAY GORILLA & CHIMPANZEE TREKKING IN UGANDA – OVERVIEW A 5-day safari in Uganda combines two of Africa’s most powerful primate experiences: mountain gorillas in the rainforest and chimpanzees in tropical jungle ecosystems. The journey takes you to Bwindi Impenetrable National Park for gorilla trekking through dense, steep forest terrain, where you spend a rare one hour observing a habituated gorilla family in their natural habitat. It continues to Kibale’s rainforest region for chimpanzee trekking, where you track and observe playful chimpanzees in their natural forest environment. Along the way, the trip includes scenic drives through Uganda’s highlands, crater lakes, and local communities, offering both wildlife and cultural immersion. It is a physically active but highly rewarding safari designed for travelers seeking deep primate encounters and authentic wilderness experiences in East Africa.
