Questions About This Safari

Is 7 days enough for both gorillas and chimps?

Can I fly between Bwindi and Kibale instead of driving?

Yes, a domestic charter flight can replace the road transfer for an additional cost.

Can this be extended with Queen Elizabeth National Park?

Yes, since the road route between Bwindi and Kibale already passes through Queen Elizabeth, an extra day or two there is a natural addition.
