This 3-day adventure takes you deep into Gombe National Park, the world-famous site of Jane Goodall’s pioneering chimpanzee research. Nestled on the shores of Lake Tanganyika, Gombe offers a rare opportunity to walk in the footsteps of wild chimpanzees and experience one of Africa’s most intimate wildlife encounters.
Your journey begins with a flight from Dar es Salaam to Kigoma, followed by a scenic boat transfer across the sparkling waters of Lake Tanganyika. Over the next two days, you’ll trek through lush forests in search of chimpanzees, hike to a stunning waterfall, and enjoy kayaking or swimming in the crystal-clear lake.
