Overview

The Murchison Falls Wildlife & Chimpanzee Safari is a 6-day safari through Murchison Falls National Park & Kibale Forest, designed and operated by Saringi Tours. Based in Nairobi and women-led, Saringi has been building private African itineraries since 2018. This route takes in Kibale, with each day sequenced to put you in the right place at the right time for wildlife.

Gorilla trekking in this part of East Africa requires specialist knowledge, advance permits, and a reliable local network. Saringi handles all of it: permits, guide allocations, and lodge bookings are managed on your behalf. The itinerary is private and fully flexible. Dates, pace, and accommodation can be adjusted at any point, and Kenya or Tanzania wildlife days can be added if you want to extend the journey.
