Democratic Republic of Congo Holidays
It has been said that the Democratic Republic of Congo is the country around which all other African countries revolve. Two thirds of the size of Europe with only 300 miles of paved road, with an area of vast jungles and dark corners, scattered outposts and tribal strong-holds, equatorial rainforests and active volcanoes, the Democratic Republic of Congo is truly one of the most untamed countries on the surface of the earth.
Home to such elusive animals as the bonobo, okapi, bongo and Congo peacock, the country is in many ways defined by its people and, whilst positive news from the area is often hard to find, optimism is not.
The warm welcome you will receive from people who have learnt to adapt to difficult conditions will help break down many preconceived ideas about this rich and fascinating part of Africa, that offers the adventurous traveller, quite simply, the trip of a lifetime.
