This gorilla & chimpanzee tracking trip is an unforgettable experience of meeting two of our closest animal cousins in the natural habitat.

In Bwindi, you will have your encounter with the mountain gorillas where you get to look into the red eyes of a silverback. And in Kalizu, you will meet the chimps and closely watch them freely go about their day.

Besides the primates, you will experience Ugandan culture and directly learn about it in the various places you will pass.

This safari is ideal for someone whose schedule is tight but they have always wanted to personally experience the presence of gorillas and chimpanzees in the wild.

  • Fantastic to spend time with a mountain gorilla family!

    The highlight of the trip was the hour we were able to spend with a mountain gorilla family. They were only a few meters away but ignored us, so cool! Also tree climbing lions and chimps later in the trip. The guide was great, as were the accommodations. One warning: this particular itinerary is condensed and an uncomfortably large percentage of waking hours was spent going from place to place (with lots of bouncing, especially when on dirt roads). If this bothers you, then extend the number of days!
