Gombe National Park
A mountainous strip that borders the shores of Lake Tanganyika , about 16km from Kigoma. Tanzania’s smallest park, covering only 52 sq km. It can only be reached by boat from Kigoma.

Gombe Stream offers visitors the rare chance to observe the chimpanzee communities made famous by British explorer Jane Goodall.

A number of monkey species can also be seen including red colobus, red-tail and blue monkeys.

The area is heavily forested making it an unsuitable habitat for carnivores and safe for walking safaris. Birdwatchers will be richly rewarded.
