Breathtaking experience! - I had an unforgettable experience led by the really knowledgeable guide Joe! He had so many information to share cause he’s doing it for over a decade now! He knew all the paths the chimps are gonna take and gave me incredible insights into the life of a chimpanzee family! Highly recommended!

Magical experience - The experience was very unique and much more than I expected. Nicholas was our guide and we really enjoyed his calm, friendly and careful guiding. He introduced us well and we could ask many questions. It was very magical to be so close to the chimpanzees and watch them having their breakfast. What I liked most is, that this forest ist very lonely and they make sure it is not overcrowded with tourists and the chimpanzees are not disturbed!

Incredilble! - We had a great adventure with our Guide Nicholas and Theo the ranger. After 10mins in the incredilble wild forest they noticed the Chimpanzees an we quickly followed the noise. And then we saw some on the path, one really close to us and many at the trees! Just amazing ❤️

Chimpanzee Trek - I had a great time! The guides were very knowledgeable. We found the chimpanzees pretty quickly and also enjoyed just taking in all the views. Would advise wearing shoes that can get muddy.
