Welcome to Western Tanzania

— where chimpanzees roam the forest & nature remains untouched.

Deep in Tanzania’s far west lies one of Africa’s most secluded and soulful regions.
Home to the mystical Mahale Mountains and Gombe Stream National Park, this circuit offers travelers rare encounters with wild chimpanzees, untouched landscapes, and the serenity of Lake Tanganyika.

Go west. Slow down. Track chimps. Dive deep.

Western Tanzania is home to two of East Africa’s most remote gems:
Mahale Mountains — for chimp tracking & jungle hikes
Gombe National Park — made famous by Jane Goodall’s chimpanzee research

Few travelers make it this far west — but those who do never forget the silence of the forest, the eyes of a chimp, and the shimmer of Lake Tanganyika at sunset.
