Rwanda Chimpanzee Safaris

Rwanda Chimpanzee Safaris

Rwanda chimpanzee safaris are an interesting African jungle activity that every tourist that visits Rwanda should undertake. Done in Nyungwe Forest National Park located in the southwestern part of Rwanda, chimpanzee tracking is arguably more interesting than gorilla trekking.

Nyungwe forest has a population of the chimpanzee of over 550 chimps, there are two chimpanzee families/troops which are fully habituated and open for tourism ready to track, chimpanzee safaris are the main activity in Nyungwe forest national park and the second activity is a canopy walk flowed by natural walks.

Rwanda chimpanzee safaris in Nyungwe Forest National Park start and end from three starting points one is Uwinka which is the main starting point of all Rwanda Chimpanzee tracking safaris, the second is Gisakura and the third is Kitabi, those three starting points where tourists can meet ranger guides who will take them for tracking, all visitors must be at the starting point by 5 am ready to enter the forest and start the trekking chimps, the reason why you have to start very early in the morning is that that chimpanzee makes new nest every end of the day somewhere in the forest so trackers who normally go ahead and before the tourists tracking chimps.
