A 4-day Gombe Chimps Tracking tour is a beautiful and unique adventure as it is among the few places in the world where chimpanzees can be seen in their natural habitat. Till this time there are no roads established to Gombe National Park so visitors can only reach the park by boat. Among the attractions of Gombe Stream National Park are the chimpanzees, beautiful landscapes, and the Kakombe waterfalls. Each day, you will trek into the forest to observe these animated primates at play.
