The golden monkeys live in groups of up to 90, usually led by one adult male. Two habituated groups are available for visitors, one with about 80 to 100 members located at the foot of Mt. Sabyinyo. Like the gorilla trek, the golden monkey trek happens in the morning, allowing visitors to spend one hour with the monkeys.

Uganda felt raw, green, and honest. Gorilla trekking in Bwindi was emotional, but I also loved Queen Elizabeth’s boat safari and quiet village walks. The people made the journey feel personal.
