Jane Goodall Chimpanzee Eden Sanctuary
Get a close-up view of cheeky primates at Jane Goodall Chimpanzee Eden Sanctuary, a rehabilitation center housing rescued and displaced chimps. Spanning 1,000 ha (2,470 ac), the sanctuary serves as a popular tourist attraction, where you can take an hour-long tour to get a glimpse into the life of chimps. Watch the trainers encouraging the primates to learn their forest skills, and observe chimps playing, relaxing, and running around their enclosures. Established in 2006, the center has done pioneering work in relation to chimps in Africa. A number of observation decks offer sweeping views of the surroundings, in which you can spot kudus, zebras, and giraffes. The premises also contains a restaurant, as well as a conference hall.

When you see the chimps going about their business, the personalities, the family dramas, dominance between the males, etc, you know that your money was well spent. Very entertaining for young and old. Would love to go more often, if only the price p/person was a little cheaper. But well worth the experience. 👌

Serving as the only sanctuary for chimpanzees within South Africa, the place and experience is truly unique. The guides are informative and educate you on chimpanzees, including the lives and journeys of the chimpanzees there. Support them if you’re in the area!
