Tripadvisors tilnærming til anmeldelser
Hver Tripadvisor-anmeldelse går gjennom et automatisert sporingssystem før den legges ut. Dette systemet samler inn informasjon som svarer på følgende spørsmål: Hvordan, hva, hvor og når. Hvis systemet oppdager noe som muligens strider imot retningslinjene våre for fellesskapet, blir anmeldelsen ikke publisert.
Når systemet oppdager et problem, kan en anmeldelse automatisk avvises, sendes til anmelderen for bekreftelse eller gjennomgås manuelt av teamet vårt av innholdsspesialister. Disse spesialistene jobber døgnet rundt for å opprettholde kvaliteten av anmeldelsene på nettstedet vårt.
Teamet vårt sjekker hver anmeldelse som er lagt ut på nettstedet og bestrides av fellesskapet vårt for ikke å møte retningslinjene våre for fellesskapet.

I fully recommend a visit to Ngamba chimpanzee sanctuary and if possible an overnight visit. The island is a forest sanctuary not only for the chimpanzees but also for birdlife. Sunset on the beach as the birds return from the lake to roost, bats emerging for the night and the sound of the chimps settling down for the night is magical, as is spending the night in a cabin on the beach.
The staff are very knowledgeable and work hard rehabilitating the chimpanzees rescued from the illegal wildlife trade. Watching the chimpanzees being fed and hearing their stories was a highlight of my trip.
In addition to caring for the chimpanzees on Ngamba island the trust also supports communities on the nearby islands and in western Uganda to address human-wildlife conflict challenges.
A fantastic organization to support with dedicated staff.

This was a highlight of our trip. We did the full day tour which was truly special to see them on the shoreline. Co-Founded by Jane Goodall, Ngamba Island does good work to protect the chimpanzees. It was very educational to learn about them as well as observe their behaviors. Would love to spend even more time on the island. A truly special place that is doing good work!

This was a fantastic trip. We went for a half day in the afternoon by speedboat. Winnie was our guide and she was amazing - bringing the chimps to life with their individual histories. You can stay overnight and this is what I would do next time. The accomodation is lovely and the island so peaceful, I didn't want to leave. Their website doesn't do a good job of conveying the experience. The pick up sopt is very close to the airport so it's an ideal location. We went straight from the boat to the airport and flew home.

On Ngamba Island chimps are in an enclosure. You see them from behind a tall fence only during feeding. So it is a long boat ride, then less than an hour watching them fed (fruits thrown over the fence) and another boat ride back. Considering how expensive is the experience (we paid $200 per person) it was not worth it. Especially after seeing chimps in the wild in Kibale NP.

I get why the reviews are mixed but we did the full day option and paid full whack. After all, the excursions are a fundraiser for a fantastic conservation project. We were fortunate that we shared the boat over with Joshua (humble, informative and turns out CEO) and peppered the poor bloke with questions. Hilary was our earnest and informative guide. We learned a lot from him. The real highlight was feeding the Chimps on the beach which is only part of the full day experience. Without that, the day would have been less impressive I suspect. Lunch was awesome. Boat ride back fortunately calm. All up recommend the full day version. Price difference was basically $15 each for lunch.
Last tip - save yourself $100 taking the slightly longer canoe and then sponsor a Chimp. Love ya Tam Tam.

There were good and bad things about this day out. First, it was very complicated trying to book a half day trip to the sanctuary. The web site is not clear. It is best to have someone go to their office in Entebbe and find out which days there are already people planning to go as this makes it MUCH cheaper.
The trip out was actually frightening - the boat was tossed around by the wind, rain and waves and because of the bad weather the trip took twice as long as usual. We arrived soaking wet and cold.
They did give us hot drinks on arrival, then a talk about the chimps before watching a feeding session from high up a tower outside an eletric fence. The guide was good, interesting and informative. Happily the lake was much calmer when we returned to Entebbe,

We left around 2:30 PM and headed off in a small boat with 2 boatmen who were obviously very experienced. Lake Victoria is huge so consequently, conditions can resemble being in open water on the sea. The boat ride normally takes 45 min. It took us almost twice that. It was the most harrowing boat ride I've ever taken .The water was extremely choppy thanks to high tide and wind. I thought I was going to bounce out of the boat so hung onto my seat for dear life. Waves washed completely over me and I arrived soaking wet. That said, upon our return with a couple of the Ngamba Island staff, the water was much calmer and the boat ride relaxing. So be warned, do not go if it's very windy unless you're a daredevil.
As for Ngamba Island, it was totally worth it. Lots of birds which I wasn't expecting. We walked up the hill to the chimp feeding area and it was a really enriching experience watching the different chimps' behaviours and personalities. you can make a donation for feeding, adopting etc.We sponsored a chimp . The chimps are behind a wire fence and when you see the size of them, you'll understand why. The island is too small to support completely the chimps so the feedings are meant to supplement their diet. To take photos, you can climb the stairs to a higher platform that overlooks the area so you can take photos without the fence. The staff are really great and gave a lot of information regarding the chimps. Our guide described his first chimp rescue and how he was nervous. The brave and caring work that the staff do to rescue chimps brings tears to the eyes.
Please note that there are public toilets available on the island.

Ngamba is an island in Lake Victoria that offers sanctuary to rescued chimpanzees. Most of the island belongs to the chimps, but humans can view them from a raised platform or from a boat. The accommodations are fantastic-- private cottages overlooking the lake. The sanctuary is approved by Jane Goodall, so you know you are helping chimps when you visit Ngamba.

I spent two nights there several years ago. My husband and I were able to go on a walk-about with all of the juveniles - it was the most amazing experience I have ever had with wildlife.

You can take a taxi from Kampala from the the old Taxi Park and then the ferry over to the island. However, many people book through a travel firm and they are picked up from the hotel and taken to the island and back. If an independent traveler - use a taxi to Entebbe, a special hire or boda boda to the island. It would be best to contact the sanctuary first before travelling.
