DAY ONE
Island-hopping
MORNING
After breakfast at your hotel, head to Nakiwogo Ferry Dock for the 50-minute boat trip to Ngamba Island Chimpanzee Sanctuary (ngambaisland. org]. Home to around 50 orphaned and rescued chimpanzees,in the air, hoping to be noticed like students in a classroom. There's a hierarchy of who should be served first, which leads to a lot of politicking… some chimps, lower down the pecking order, are bullied into handing over their food, but all eventually get fed. Chimps are meant to be living in large areas of tropical forest with plenty of room to roam, so the Chimpanzee Sanctuary & Wildlife Conservation Trust run campaigns to raise awareness of the plight of these endangered apes.
