Mountain Gorillas – Uganda has over half of the world’s remaining gorillas, Chimpanzees, there is no better country to see them than Uganda as you venture through one of the only true jungles in East Africa – Kibale Forest, where you can sleep in a tree house six meters up, seeing primates, exotic birds and forest elephants below in the morning.
