Amazing park and chimps, although The two hour journey by boat could be an adventure in case or bad weather.
Regarding the organisation: Don't book the luxury tents. I booked and paid for one and they didn't give me, as it was "already booked". I didn't get any type of refund. That's embarrassing.

Meeting chimpanzees in their natural environment and be allowed to be there is beyond words. Not only that having access and being guided by the rangers, researchers, scouts and private guide is something which makes this experience out of this world! Having all this people with all this knowledge makes this an experience I and my family will newer forget!

We came to Gombe for the chimps - and we saw them very close already the first day - and on day 2 we were just in the middle of them! An awesome experience - not to forget again! One of the highlights of our tour!
We did not meet very many birds here!
Too beautiful

Chimpanzees - Up close and personal
My trip to Gombe National Park was a dream come true and even then, exceeded my expectations. A longtime fan of Jane Goodall's work, I was overjoyed to be in the very park where she and many others worked and lived with the Chimpanzee community. The luxury tented camp at the park is just that - a luxury with running water, toilet and shower as well as a full bed and couch all on a raised platform right off Lake Tanganyika's beach. My park guide was very knowledgeable about the Chimpanzees but also about other local fauna and flora, including traditionally used and medicinal plants that abound in Gombe forest. Two well-experienced chimp trackers worked over radio to locate the troops for viewing and I was lucky enough to spend time with two separate chimp families. One curious chimp came quite close! The experience of Gombe is unforgettable and well worth the trip.

you can only reach the park by the boat journey, so there is no mass tourism there. it's a demanding climb to get to the places, where the chimpanzees can be spotted, so it has an authentic feel.
A world of beauty
Just a feedback. Your map of Gombe National Park on this website is completely wrong. It includes the site of Gombe Forest Lodge and the Kasekela tourist area, but the park boundary is utterly wrong it includes land east of the mountain ridge and beyond the road (wrong in both respects) and it misses-out all the valleys south of Kasekela until the park boundary just before Kazinga. I suggest you re-draw it please.

The wonders available at Gombe are unique compared to Serengeti and Tarangire.
