4 DAYS Chimpanzee and Queen Elizabeth Tour (KIBALE NP)

Day 1  TO KIBALE NP
You will be picked up from your Hotel by our Safari guide and driven to Kibale National Park. This scenic drive takes approximately 4-5 hours arriving in the afternoon.  You will stop over in Fort portal town for lunch before driving to Ndali Lodge/Primates lodge / Mountains of The Moon lodge/Rwenzori View Guest House where you will stay prior to your chimpanzee tracking tomorrow. Check in  then go for a guided walk in Bigodi Swamp to look for different bird species like the Shining Blue Kingfisher, Blue Throated Roller and other rare species and also find the fruiting trees, which attract Narina Trogon, Pied Hornbill, Yellow Spotted, Hairy Breasted and Yellow-Billed Barbets among others before you retire for dinner and over night .

Day 2 CHIMPANZEE TRACKING IN UGANDA
After breakfast, report to the ranger station in Kibale National Park at 08.00am to track habituated chimps – these delightful apes, more closely related to humans than to any other living creature, are marvelous fun to watch as they wrangle and play in fruiting trees. The unbelievably distinct forest is home to over 13 species of primates including the rare L’Hoest, blue monkey, red Colobus monkey, pottos, grey mangabey, black faced, baboons, vervet monkeys bushbabies among others.  A complex of shady forest trails offers much to pleasure botanists and butterfly lovers, while birders are in for a treat with 335 species recorded including the endemic Prirogrine’s ground thrush. The elusive forest elephant, smaller and hairier than its savannah counterpart, moves seasonally into the developed part of the park, while other terrestrial mammals include buffalo, giant forest hog and a half dozen antelope species.
Carry on you  the wonderful memories and experience as you head to Kampala or Entebbe for your flight back home.
