A 4-day safari to see the chimps of Gombe

Nothing can prepare you for an encounter with chimps. Whether it’s on a pebbled beach or deep within a forest; it’s an unforgettable experience. Gombe National Park consists of a narrow strip of land stretching along the crystal waters of Lake Tanganyika. The park is fed by numerous streams and waterfalls and its valleys are filled with indigenous trees entwined by vines and creepers.
