This Primates and birding safari brings you to the jewel of Africa's woodlands, where there are the greatest numbers of primates and endangered bird species. The biggest concentration of primates in East Africa may be found in Kibale Forest, while Bwindi Impenetrable Forest is renowned for being one of the continent's biologically richest forests. Additionally, the latter has the UESCO World Heritage Site designation and has been hailed by the African Bird Club as Africa's top birding location.
