Best Time to Visit

July to October

The dry season between July to October is the best time for a chimpanzee safari in Gombe Stream National Park. There is plenty of sunshine and the wild chimpanzee families don’t roam as far and tend to stick together on the lower slopes of the park, making them easier to track.
