Unforgettable Primate Safari with Umarella Voyage Safaris in Uganda I had the most incredible primate adventure of a lifetime with Umarella Voyage Safaris in Uganda. Combining gorilla trekking in Bwindi Impenetrable Forest and chimpanzee trekking in Kibale National Park made this safari truly extraordinary. Our experienced ranger guide, ensured our gorilla trek was safe and awe-inspiring. Seeing these majestic creatures up close in their natural habitat was an indescribable moment of connection with nature. The chimpanzee trek in Kibale National Park was equally captivating. Our guide's knowledge and enthusiasm made the experience educational and engaging. Watching playful chimps in their family groups was heartwarming. I highly recommend Umarella Voyage Safaris to anyone seeking a primate-focused safari in Uganda. Their commitment to conservation and responsible tourism shines through every aspect of the journey. Don't miss the chance to witness these incredible primates with Umarella Voyage Safaris - you won't be disappointed!

A Journey through Uganda and Tanzania with these guys. Our East African expedition with Umarella Voyage Safaris, exploring the wonders of Uganda and Tanzania, was a once-in-a-lifetime journey that touched our souls. In Uganda, we embarked on a thrilling chimpanzee trek in Kibale National Park where we witnessed these playful primates swinging through the treetops, leaving us with unforgettable memories. And in Tanzania, we ventured into the iconic Serengeti, guided by Peter, our experienced guide. The boundless plains were alive with the Great Migration - a breathtaking spectacle of nature. Witnessing the dramatic river crossings was a sight we will cherish forever. This combined safari with Umarella Voyage Safaris allowed us to experience the best of both countries - two East African gems renowned for their wildlife and natural beauty. A journey we will forever hold close to our hearts. I highly recommend this trip.
