Our main goal for this safari was to see Chimps in the wild. Nomad's Greystoke Camp on the edge of Lake Tanganyika certainly did not disappoint delivering 3 morning treks all will fun filled chimp encounters with the habituated M Group. The guiding here is exceptional as is the camp itself.

Mahale Mountains National Park lies on the shores of Lake Tanganyika in Kigoma Region, Tanzania. Named after the Mahale Mountains range that is within its borders, the park has several unusual characteristics. First, it is one of only two protected areas for chimpanzees in the country. (The other is nearby Gombe Stream National Park made famous by the researcher Jane Goodall.) The chimpanzee population in Mahale Mountains National Park is the largest known and due to its size and remoteness, the chimpanzees flourish. It is one of the very few parks in Africa that must be experienced by foot. There are no roads or other infrastructure within the park boundaries, and the only way in and out of the park is via boat on the lake.
