GOMBE CHIMP SAFARI

Tanzania's smallest park is home to one of the last remaining wild populations of Chimpanzees on the continent. Founded by Jane Goodall the refuge encompasses a thin strip of rain forest on the shores of Lake Tanganyika. It can only be accessed by boat, but it is well worth the journey. Besides its famous chimpanzees there are many other species of monkeys that make the forested shores their home; including red colobus, red-tail and blue monkeys. In the reserve you will guided by park researchers who study the Chimps and track their daily movements

DAY 2 - KIGOMA
You will connect with your early morning flight from Dar es Salaam Airport. Upon arrival in Kigoma, you will be met and transferred to Kigoma Hilltop Hotel perched dramatically on a cliff top overlooking the stunning clear waters of Lake Tanganyika.

DAY 3 - GOMBE STREAM NATIONAL PARK
After and early breakfast, set off by boat for Gombe National Park. The boat trip takes ½- 1½ hours depending on conditions on the lake. An extension of the Rift Valley, Lake Tanganyika was formed around 20 million years ago and is the longest fresh water lake in the world, as well as the second deepest. The views on the lake are spectacular and you may meet the local fishermen as they go about their business. Upon arrival in Gombe, you will have the rest of the day to relax on the beach or perhaps snorkel in the lake. Overnight - Tanapa Rest House (all meals & activities)

DAYS 4/ 5 - GOMBE STREAM NATIONAL PARK
After breakfast, spend the day tracking the Chimpanzees guided by one of the park’s researchers. Firstly, your guide will lead you to the site of last night's nests. Once these have been located, you will track the chimps to their present location. This can take anything from a ½ hour to 4 hours and the trek is often through quite difficult, hilly, but nonetheless spectacular terrain. The amount of time allowed for each visit with the chimps is limited to 1-2 hours. You will return to the Resthouse for lunch. In the afternoons you will have the option to track the chimps with a visit to the waterfall or Jane’s Peak – the spot where Jane Goodall sat each day to wait for a sight of her now famous chimpanzee troupe. Alternatively, relax on the beach or snorkel in the clear waters of the lake where the chimpanzees and other primates sometimes come to drink. Overnight - Tanapa Rest House (all meals & activities)
