Primates are known to be close relatives to man. Their close connection attracts the attention of man to visit them in their natural habitats. They are quite interesting creatures to see as the go by their day-to-day business in the dense forests. In Uganda they can be found at Bwindi and Mgahinga for Mountain Gorillas, Kibale and Budongo for Chimpanzee.
Primate Safaris to these destinations have become part of bucket list travel plans for enthusiastic travellers. Coming face to face with The Gorilla is such a mesmerizing experience. Also watching them groom the young ones is amazing too. Chimpanzees are usually agile and fast in the forest clinging and jumping on different tree branches.
Sustainable tourism can be promoted through these Primate Safaris as part of the campaigns to preserve and conserve their existence and environment that hosts them.
