Expedition Highlights

Walk through the ancient forests which form the chimpanzees’ habitat on the steep slopes and river valleys of Gombe. Listen for the fish eagle’s distinctive call and spot the shy red colobus monkeys hiding in the forest canopy.

Observe the Chimpanzees of Gombe Stream, the smallest of Tanzania’s national parks, reachable by motorboat from Kigoma on the shores of Lake Tanganyika.

The chimpanzees (who share about 98% of their genes with humans) were made famous by the pioneering work of Dr Jane Goodall who, in 1960, founded an ongoing behavioural research program.

The chimps are thus habituated to human visitors; as are a troop of beachcomber olive baboons.

Spend a night in the new luxury tented lodge, the self-catering hostel or the guest house. Alternatively, pitch your tent at a lakeshore campsite.
