About This Experience
Trek through dense forest in Mahale or Gombe to observe wild chimpanzees in their natural habitat. Habituated troops allow remarkably close encounters as you watch chimps feed, play, and socialize.
Led by experienced trackers, these intimate treks offer profound connections with our closest genetic relatives - we share 98.7% of our DNA with chimpanzees.
