To minimize disturbance of our scientific research, we do not permit tourists to visit the Kanyawara group of chimpanzees. However, we encourage visitors to Uganda to experience the wild chimpanzees of Kibale Forest at the nearby Kanyanchu ecotourism program, managed by the Ugandan Wildlife Authority. For a very reasonable price, you and a small group of fellow travelers have the opportunity to observe chimpanzees and other wild animals in their natural habitat and to learn about their behavior from experienced and knowledgable guides.
For information on obtaining chimpanzee tracking permits, accommodations, and other activites in Kibale and the surrounding areas, please visit the Travel Uganda website.
