4 Days Gorillas and Chimpanzee tracking safari or primates tour package in Uganda takes you the Primate and Chimpanzee capital of the world in Kibale forest National Park, and the world heritage site of the gentle giants in Bwindi Impenetrable forest National Park. Both these parks are located in western part of Uganda. This 4 day safari package is designed for those people with less time but want to cover the best out of their holiday time in Uganda without enduring the long drive to Bwindi.
