It is very rare that a new destination opens up in Africa, so the debut of Congo's untamed rainforests is the most exciting development this decade. We predict that the Republic of Congo will become a very busy destination - but for a few precious seasons, the intrepid travellers who go there will experience a truly wild, unspoilt safari.
A Congo safari is infused with a priceless and rare sense of authentic adventure – from start to finish you encounter sights, sounds and scents that are unique or unusual, from the cathedrals and monuments of Brazzaville, to the heart of the rainforest and the game-rich lagoons of the bai.
We’ve personally experienced the destinations, lodges and activities that we recommend in the Congo. You can view the video playlist of our Congo trip on Youtube or check out our Congo photo album.
