6 Days Wildlife And Chimpanzee Safari

The 6 Days Wildlife And Chimpanzee Safari pairs the wide-open plains of Queen Elizabeth National Park with the dense rainforest of Kibale, the primate capital of East Africa. Game drives in the Kasenyi plains reveal lions, elephants, and buffaloes, while the Kazinga Channel boat cruise delivers one of Uganda's most concentrated wildlife spectacles as hippos, crocodiles, and elephants crowd the waterway.

Kibale switches the scale to intimate: a chimpanzee trek through ancient forest, lunch at Tinka's Homestay supporting community conservation, and the Bigodi community walk where the Great Blue Turaco and over 200 bird species accompany a tour of traditional crafts and local healing practices. The scenic Rwenzori foothills frame the drive between parks.

For a variant that swaps Queen Elizabeth for Murchison Falls, see the 6 Days Wildlife Meets Chimpanzee Safari. The 7 Days Primates and Wildlife Safari adds gorillas to extend this itinerary into a full primate circuit.
