3 DAYS CHIMPANZEE HABITUATION EXPERIENCE IN KIBALE

Overview:

Chimpanzee habituation experience and tracking safaris in Kibale Forest are close to the Mountain Gorilla safaris in Uganda. On this 3 day chimpanzee habituation Uganda safari, you have a fun-filled day of excitement with these delightful primates in Kibale Forest national park, which is referred to as the “Primate Capital of the World”. The habituation experience gives you more time to spend with the Chimpanzees than on a normal tracking tour.

Uganda's Kibale Forest Chimpanzee habituation safari is a form of experiential tourism and can be a half or full-day activity where you accompany Kibale’s researchers as they follow the Chimpanzees on their daily activities aimed at getting them used to human presence, without altering their environment. The activity involves following and closely monitoring an identified group of chimps almost on a daily basis. The forest is serene and diverse, with over 13 species of primates like the L’Hoest Monkeys, Blue Monkeys, Black and White colobus, Bush Babies, Olive Baboons and Potto among others, it is home to over 1450 Chimps and nearly 372 bird species including 6 endemics of the Albertine Rift region.
