7 Days Primates And Wildlife Safari

The 7 Days Primates And Wildlife Safari covers four parks and four ecosystems in one week, beginning at Kibale Forest, the primate capital of East Africa, with a chimpanzee trek and a Bigodi Wetland walk. It continues to Queen Elizabeth National Park for game drives on the Kasenyi plains and a Kazinga Channel boat cruise, then swings south through the Ishasha sector for tree-climbing lions in ancient fig trees, before culminating in gorilla country at Bwindi Impenetrable Forest.

Lake Bunyonyi's calm terraced shores provide a beautiful overnight between gorilla country and Lake Mburo, where the final morning walking safari delivers zebras, giraffes, and impalas on foot. The only park in Uganda where impalas roam makes for an unusual and deeply satisfying finale to a safari that has covered every habitat Uganda offers.

Prefer to go shorter? The 6 Days Wildlife and Chimpanzee Safari covers Queen Elizabeth and Kibale without the gorillas. The 5 Days Gorilla Trekking Safari focuses exclusively on Bwindi for travellers whose sole mission is the mountain gorilla.
