Kibale Forest pretty much guarantees you a sighting of the Chimpanzee family the forest habitats. Great experience tracking through the forest in search for the chimps.

We went to see the chimps, but on the day we visited, it was raining, and they mainly stayed high in the canopy. It would be good to plan a few days in this area to be sure to get to see them.

Kibale forest is the home of the chimpanzees. One will see footsteps of the bush elefant and one will hear the call of the great blue turaco.

See the Chimpanzees
Overall rating
4/5

A great way to get close to primates in the wild at a fraction of the cost of seeing the gorillas. The chimps that we met were incredibly active. They swung from the trees above and ran through the forest floor around us. Our guide gave us an excellent insight into the hierarchy and activities of the group. The forest is dense and this makes it a little difficult to take pictures, but it also acts as a blind that allows you to get very close to the animals.

Meeting with chimpanzees
Overall rating
4/5

I was so excited seeing chimpanzees living without borders and boundaries - in freedom. As Kibale is a forest there was not too much light for filming of taking photographs but i managed to take some great photos.
Guide knew everything about wildlife and told us as much as he was able diuring our stay.
And the weather was so good during our stay there.
I would really recommend Kibale Forest as a great place to see wildlife in Uganda.

we saw chimps in its own habitat, not enough time for birding or to lock for other monkeys
