Gombe National Park

Tanzania - Western Tanzania

Situated on the wild shores of Lake Tanganyika, Gombe Stream is an untamed place of lush forests and clear lake views. Hiking and swimming are also popular activities here.

Gombe Streamā€™s main attraction is obviously the chimpanzee families that live protected in the parkā€™s boundaries. Guided walks are available that take visitors deep into the forest to observe and sit with the extraordinary primates for an entire morning ā€” an incredible experience and one that is the highlight of many visitorsā€™ trips to Africa. Besides chimpanzee viewing, many other species of primates live in Gombe Streamā€™s tropical forests. Vervet and colobus monkeys, baboons, forest pigs and small antelopes inhabit the dense forest, in addition to a wide variety of tropical birdlife.
