This was the highlite of my trip. Staying in the tent & waking up early to watch the sunrise over the forest. Hearing and seeing all the birds and monkeys nearby waking up to the day was one of the most wonderful experiences of my life. Wood Hoopoe gathering in trees beneath were I sat - beautiful. .Trips along the river to see the chimps, hippos and birds was wonderful. The tents were comfortable & clean. Stella is an inspirational host, our guides friendly and knowledgeable. The project offers hope for any one interested in wildlife conservation. The steps are steep, especially if you forget your keys in the lodge and have to do the journey twice in a row :)

What a wonderful experience feeding these small friendly monkeys, who take the peanuts directly from your hand. Make sure you take plenty with you and buy them (the ones still in their shells) before you arrive at the park, as this will be much cheaper.
