Uganda Visa For Sudanese Citizens - Requirements & Fees

Ngamba Island

Ngamba Island is a project of the Chimpanzees Sanctuary and Wildlife Conservation Trust (CSWCT), which was founded in 1997. It serves as a place for approximately 40 orphaned chimps to live out their lives because reintroduction to their native environment is not viable, while also teaching tourists and local people about their extraordinary species and the necessity of maintaining their fragile rainforest.

Ngamba Island is around 100 acres in size, 98 of which are wooded and isolated from the visitor's area by an electric fence where the chimps wander throughout the day.

In collaboration with Wild Frontiers, Ngamba Island Chimpanzee Sanctuary provides chimp interactions as a half or full-day tour.

Here you can enjoy the peaceful morning views and along the conservation area and platform area, you can feed the chimpanzees. You can chat with the reserve staff to learn more about the animals here and how they protect and care for them. Here, you can also enjoy lunch, bird watching, and other wildlife, or simply relax in the sun.

At Uganda Immigration Services, we assist with visa processes, visa requirements, and more for Sudanese travelers who wish to visit Uganda for tourism purposes.
