2 Days 1 Night Chimpanzee Tracking Safari Budongo Forest Reserve is a short overnight expedition from Kampala to Budongo Forest in Uganda that offers unique opportunities to meet Chimpanzees – our closest relatives in their natural habitat.
Budongo Forest is situated approximately 3 hours drive northwest of the capital city Kampala on the way to the prominent Murchison Falls National Park.
The forest is renowned for its high number of mahogany trees and chimpanzees and is believed to contain some 600 to 700 chimpanzees and other primate species such as monkeys.
One can also view several bird species such as Chocolate-backed kingfisher, the White-thighed Hornbill and Puvel’s illadiposis found nowhere else in East.
The area is relatively flat and thus easy to trek. You’ll team up with field assistants at the Budongo Conservation Field Station to observe chimps and other primates as they forage for food in the morning and late afternoon.
The Budongo Forest is home to many fruiting trees and several species of primate that depend upon tree fruit as a major component of their diets. Budongo Forest is ranked among the top five tourist destinations in Uganda.
The forest contains the Royal Mile, named for its popularity as a traditional stopover for Uganda's royalty.
The Royal Mile is a superb birding spot, with many West and Central African species in addition to the local East African species.
Chimpanzee Tracking (Kaniyo Pabidi only). The walk generally lasts between 2 to 4 hours in the forest. Maximum of 2 groups of 4 to 6 people per morning and afternoon will be allowed to track chimpanzees with our experienced guides.

The Chimpanzee Sanctuary & Wildlife Conservation Trust (CSWCT) was established in 1998 to support the welfare of orphaned rescued Chimpanzees at Ngamba Island Chimpanzee Sanctuary in Lake Victoria.
Today Ngamba Island Chimpanzee Sanctuary cares for about 48 orphaned chimpanzees. The Sanctuary's 100 acre forested island provides a safe haven for orphaned chimpanzees that are now free to roam their island.
Thanks to project leaders Uganda Wildlife Education Center (UWEC) and other concerned organizations that raised funds for the project. It offers a unique opportunity for close viewing of chimpanzees in their natural environment.
Pre-arranged supplementary feeding times (1100 Hours and 1300 Hours each day) brings the chimpanzees to within meters of the raised walkway specially designed for easy viewing and provides excellent photographic opportunities.
Our 2 day tour includes an overnight at the island tented camp with full board accommodation, a forest walk with the chimpanzees where you will interact with the juvenile group and feeding of Chimpanzees.
Other activities include Island forest walks, caregiver program, chimpanzee’s observation and optional Lake Victoria water sports activities.

Day 2: Ngamba Island – Morning Activities – Take a 45 Minutes Boat Ride – Entebbe Pier – Drive to Kampala
There are various activities that you can choose to be a part of on this day. The options include taking a forest walk but this decision has to be made the day before since you have to get up early if you are to do this walk
Forest Walk; Wake up for the forest walk where you will interact with the young group aged between 4 to 7 years old.
During the forest walk this juvenile may climb all over you, and normally many at the same time may expect you to carry them, so be ready for this state of great excitement. The walk lasts just about an hour.
As you walk through this forest, you will see lots of bird species and various tree species. About 4 visitors are allowed go in to the forest at a time with the company of a guide.
From the forest walk, you will go have your breakfast and then you will go for the community Integration of the infant chimpanzees.
Integration program; Integrating the orphaned chimpanzees into one community. The integration of the new arrivals to the group is a continuous progress as the rescued animals have been arriving at different times from the time the sanctuary was established in 1998.
The time that it takes to integrate any of the chimpanzees to the community depends on different factors including age, sex, level of trauma experienced, how long the individual lived in capacity before coming to the sanctuary among others.
The integration program are done in three phases; getting the new arrivals used to the new environment in the indoor facility on arrival, getting them integrated with the others in smaller groups in the outside enclosure and finally in the main forest with the rest of the group.
Caregiver for the day: This is a unique program where you get the opportunity to experience a day in the life of a chimpanzee caregiver by being a caregiver yourself.
You will get the opportunity to not only view the chimps feeding, but to participate in preparing their food and feeding them
In the afternoon board your boat back to the main land where you will meet your guide for your drive back to Kampala/ Entebbe where the Safari ends.
