On safari
How many times do we see the Chimps and Gorillas?
In all our Uganda safaris (Classic Uganda, Uganda Discovery, Western Oasis, The Best of the West, Uganda Grand Tour and The Albertine Rift Exploration) we include typically 2 opportunities to see the chimps (Kibale Forest NP and Kyambura WR) and 1 gorilla trekking in Bwindi NP. If you would like to see the gorillas a second time we advise you to see them a second time in Rwanda because this is another environment and experience.
