Established in 2006 by the Jane Goodall Institute, Chimp Eden near Hazyview, White River and Nelspruit is the first and only chimpanzee sanctuary of its kind in South Africa. Our mission is the rescue and care of chimpanzees that have been orphaned, traded, abused or survived the bush meat trade.
The Jane Goodall Institute was founded in 1977 to continue her groundbreaking studies on chimpanzees. The Jane Goodall Institute is dedicated to raising awareness through education and eco-tourism. Understanding the lives and the plight of rescued chimpanzees is the best way to start the change.

We had a lovely experience. Apparently the two guides had been only 2 weeks on duty, but they were very comfortable answering all the questions from the group. They kept on warning us about the chimp who throws stones, so we felt save. I took some photos, but will email them to you if you want to use them.

Absolutely wonderful experience. Ive been wanting to visit for many years and followed the birth of Thabu on facebook a few years back. The guide was exceptionally knowledgeable. It was a pity that some of the chimps were not seen as there was a health inspection that day. I would have liked to see more. They have the most wonderful life with you. I also was sad to see that the building was looking very derelict and am aware that you are funded mostly on donations however feel that the Jane Goodall Trust could help with some maintenance. Its such a very important educational centre and a better image would bring it in line with the prestige of her life's work and dedication. Loved all the gifts on offer and helpfulness all around. Keep us the fantastic work.
