The 3-day Chimpanzee Tracking Kibale Forest National Park is a reward to the primate lovers because of the concentration of the primates in this dense tropical rain forest. This area had the high percentage of viewing chimpanzees in the wild than any other place in Africa or even the world. It is not only primates but the volcanic activity gives it authentic craters that have lakes and farmland as well as tea estates that make this a unique destination for those that advocate for go green and environmentalists. The safari starts and ends in Kampala but usually an extension to either Murchison falls or Queen Elizabeth and Bwindi impenetrable for the mountain gorillas.
