Gombe National Park is famous for the Jane Goodall chimpanzee project. Although the chimps are this park’s primary attraction, there are many other primates, mammals and birdlife to see. No other park in Africa can offer such a magnificent chimp experience. Gombe National Park is the perfect choice for travelers who wish to experience remoteness and unspoiled nature.
