Ngamba Chimps & UWEC Behind Scenes

Duration: Single Day, 8 Hours

This is not only a must do activity for those who love adventure but also as you enjoy the tour you are directly supporting conservation with your payment. K safaris introduces to you the un usual program when you visit the orphaned and confiscated chimpanzees on an island in Lake Victoria and behind the scenes at Uganda Wildlife Education Center. This particular tour is different from what you probably would expect from seeing the feeding chimpanzee to actually feeding the giraffe, elephant and much more. memory you will not forget after this activity.

This particular tour has been recommended by us to the visitors that have their flight back home in the evening and have a layover day in Entebbe after their wildlife and gorilla trekking safari. Others have come for conferences and business trips. They usually arrive in Uganda a day before and spend the whole day adventuring this rare opportunity of getting close to most of the animals seen in the wild.
