You will meet some of the primates here, even a chimpanzee at times.

Kibale Forest National Park boasts the highest number of primate species in the world, including the chimpanzees. Approximately 5,000 chimpanzees live in the wild in Uganda, which makes it a perfect place to spot them!
The park is popular for its primate population like the chimpanzees, colobus monkeys, red-cheeked monkeys, and red-tailed monkeys. On your chimpanzee trails, these are regularly seen swinging in the forest trees and others feeding on the wild fruits. An experienced ranger will take you chimp tracking in the morning around 6:30 a.m. Once you locate the chimpanzees, you will have a full hour with them. You will return to your lodge for dinner and an overnight stay.
After breakfast, start on the long drive back to Entebbe / Kampala with the memory of the great rare mountain apes. Have lunch en route and a stopover at the equator line for experimentation. You’ll be arriving late in the evening to be dropped off at Entebbe International Airport at approximately 6:00 pm hence you have to book an evening flight!
