Detailed Day-by-Day Safari Itinerary for the 3-Day Uganda Chimpanzee Habituation Experience:

Day One: Transfer to Kibale Forest National Park

Commence your journey to Kibale Forest National Park after a hearty breakfast. Traverse through the picturesque countryside, adorned with lush gardens, charming towns, and bustling fruit and vegetable markets. This day is dedicated to a scenic drive with occasional stopovers for stretching and capturing the beauty of your surroundings. A major pause awaits in the vibrant Fort Portal town, where you’ll indulge in a buffet lunch. Afterward, your driver-guide continues the journey to your chosen accommodation for check-in.

In the afternoon, set out for the Bigodi Community Walk, delving into the village’s intricacies. Explore the wetland to spot unique bird species and diverse monkeys. A visit to the local medicine man unveils the traditional processes involved.

Day Two: Chimpanzee Habituation in Kibale Forest National Park

After a restful night and an early breakfast, embark on the highlight of your safari – the Chimpanzee Habituation Experience. Receive a briefing from ranger guides on proper conduct in the forest when encountering these remarkable primates. Witness the Chimpanzees in various activities, from resting and feeding to grooming each other and caring for their young. The four-hour duration allows for an in-depth understanding of their behavior.

Depending on the timing and Chimpanzee location, this could extend to a full-day activity. Accompanied by rangers and researchers, follow the Chimpanzees throughout the day, capturing moments of their untamed behavior. This experience caters more to enthusiasts seeking an immersive encounter than those focused on capturing photos, as the habituated Chimpanzees may exhibit shyness.

Day Three: Transfer Back to Kampala or Entebbe

Bid farewell to the captivating Chimpanzee habitat after breakfast, commencing your journey back to Kampala or Entebbe. Reflect on the mesmerizing moments spent in Uganda’s countryside, culminating in the conclusion of your 3-day Uganda Chimpanzee Habituation Safari with Trek Africa Expeditions.
