Chimpanzee watching in Tanzania offers a thrilling opportunity to see these intelligent primates in their natural habitat. Gombe Stream National Park, located on the shores of Lake Tanganyika, is one of the best places to observe chimpanzees in the wild. Gombe is famous for Jane Goodall’s pioneering research on chimpanzee behavior, and it remains a top destination for eco-tourists.
Another great location for chimpanzee watching is Mahale Mountains National Park, also on the shores of Lake Tanganyika. It’s more remote and less crowded, providing a more intimate experience with the chimpanzees in the forested mountains.
