The 5-Day Gorilla-Chimpanzee Trekking Safari begins early. Depart your Hotel in Kampala at 6:30 am for Kibale Forest. This is a 5-hour plus drive from Kampala – 6 hours from Entebbe.
We are heading West toward Fort Portal and Uganda’s famed Explosion Crater Lakes region. Kibale Forest is the place in Uganda where West and Central Africa’s jungles meet East Africa.
Afternoon – Bigodi Wetlands Sanctuary Hike. This is a guided 3-hour hike through a Jungle Swamp. Much of it is on planks like a boardwalk above the swamp. Your experienced guide is from the local community that has maintained the Wetlands for many years, with thousands visiting each year.
During the Afternoon, you might spot Chimpanzees, Colobus Monkeys, also baboons. The area is well-known for birds. The chief attraction is the Blue Turaco.
