The Primate Edition Small Group Tour offers an exciting alternative to the regular Big Five of East Africa. The five set departure dates between September and November venture across Tanzania and Uganda, for an 8-day adventure of tracking primates through ancient forests.
Embark on an unforgettable journey that brings together two of Africa’s most profound wildlife encounters. In the company of a small group of like-minded travellers, you’ll track chimpanzees on Rubondo Island in Tanzania, before venturing into Uganda’s mystical Bwindi Impenetrable Forest, home to the legendary mountain gorillas.
This is a rare and soul-stirring safari, a once-in-a-lifetime adventure that connects you deeply with nature, conservation, and the wild heart of East Africa. Shared with a maximum of just 9 other travellers.
Why book The Primate Edition:
- Primate trekking permits included
- Rubondo Island’s unique ecosystem
- Uganda’s mountain gorilla population
- Cultural encounters with local communities
- A private plane will accompany the group throughout the journey, from Nairobi (NBO) to Entebbe (EBB)
