3 Day Chimpanzee Habituation Kibale Safari

This 3 Day Chimpanzee Habituation Kibale Safari in Uganda will provide you with a full day of excitement among the wild Chimpanzees in the wild forests of Kibale National Park, which is referred to as the Primate Capital of the World.

Day 1: Travel from Kampala westwards to Kibale Forests (5 hours)

Meet with your guide after breakfast at your overnight accommodation, receive a briefing, and travel west to the park. Enjoy the stunning blend of photogenic natural scenes on this drive from Mubende to Fort Portal. Lunch will be in the town of Fort Portal, and later proceed to the park, arriving in the evening. Check into your lodge for relaxation.

Accommodation: Primate lodge, Kibale Forest Camp, Rweteera Safari Lodge

Day 2: Participate in the Chimpanzee Habituation experience

Enjoy a delightful start to your day with breakfast at the lodge early in the morning, then transfer with a packed lunch to the visitor reception area at Kanyanchu, where the activity commences.

Remember, this is a full-day activity; during this stunning experience, you will accompany the researchers and Habituators as they follow Chimpanzees during their daily activities, getting them used to human presence. You will see them de-nesting, feeding, copulating, hunting, breastfeeding, resting, and patrolling until they build their nests.

This is one of the best experiences you can ever have in the tropical forests in the heart of Africa. You will appreciate the forest diversity as you enjoy the backdrop sounds of nature in this activity. Retreat after the activity in the evening and head back to the lodge for a relaxing dinner and overnight.

Day 3: Nature walk in Bigodi and transfer back to Kampala or Entebbe

Enjoy breakfast at the lodge and transfer to a morning nature experience tracking birds and primates in the Bigodi wetland, a wildlife corridor that leads to the park. It hosts a variety of wildlife, including over 200 bird species, 8 primate species, as well as mammals such as Bushbucks and the wetland-dwelling Sitatunga.

Enjoy the nature walk in a different dimension past the board pathways. Later, you will transfer back to Kampala or Entebbe airport for your flight.
