3-Day Chimpanzee Safari Kibale National Park

• • Scenic Landscapes: Wind through lush tea plantations that carpet the rolling hills in vibrant shades of green.
  • Cultural Immersion: Pass through traditional homesteads and local markets, witnessing the vibrant daily life of rural Uganda.
  • The Arrival: Check-in at the Crater Safari Lodge. Perched on a hill overlooking the shimmering Nyinabulitwa Crater Lake, this lodge combines eco-luxury with breathtaking views.

Traveler’s Note: The transition from the urban sprawl to the cool, crisp air of the western highlands is the first step in your rejuvenation journey.

• Primate Variety: Keep your eyes peeled for the Red Colobus and Black-and-white Colobus monkeys often found skirting the swamp edges.

• Return Transfer: Depart for Kampala, carrying memories of the wild that will last a lifetime.
