Guided by the knowledgeable and friendly Yusuf, our group was able to get up close and personal with these fascinating primates in their natural habitat. The trek was both challenging and rewarding, as we navigated through the lush forest and were treated to breathtaking views of the surrounding landscape. In addition to the chimpanzee trekking, we enjoyed several nature walks and hikes that allowed us to fully immerse ourselves in the beauty of the parks. One of the highlights of the trip was the boat cruise on the Kazinga Channel, where we were able to observe a wide variety of wildlife from the comfort of our boat. The waters were teeming with hippos, elephants, and birds, and it was an incredible experience to witness these animals up close. Our accommodations were comfortable and the local meals were delicious, providing us with a taste of the region's cuisine. The trip was made even more special by the friendly and knowledgeable guide, Yusuf, who shared his passion for the parks and their wildlife with us. The trip also included a visit to fort portal enjoying the views of crater lakes that were very beautiful and attractive.
