Top Masindi Tours by Duration in 2026

Uganda’s Budongo Forest is one of the best reserves to track chimpanzees. Alongside a private guide, walk along the forested trails in search of these primates that share 98% of our DNA. Your guide takes you to the chimp community where you can take photos and see how they interact with you. Upgrade to a full-day tour for a chimpanzee habituation experience so they can get slowly used to humans.

Unlike a typical game drive, this experience puts you on the ground—literally. Accompanied by armed rangers and expert guides, you’ll walk through open savannah and bushland in search of southern White Rhinos. Along the way, you’ll learn about Rhino behavior, tracking techniques, and the conservation efforts that brought these incredible animals back from extinction in Uganda. Once a Rhino group is located, you’ll observe them from a safe distance on foot—watching them graze, rest, or move through the grasslands. The silence, proximity, and raw presence of these giants make this a powerful, unforgettable moment. Ziwa is also home to other wildlife such as bushbucks, waterbucks, monkeys, and over 300 bird species, making it a well-rounded nature experience—even in just half a day.

Your guide and driver will take care of all the logistics for you so you can just enjoy the experience.
