Congo (DRC) Gorilla Trekking & Safari Tours
Congo, the Heart of Darkness. Who hasn’t dreamed of setting foot in that mysterious jungle-clad country in Central Africa? The Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) is mostly off-limits to travelers. However, after a long period of inactivity, Virunga National Park reopened to visitors more than 10 years ago. Gorilla treks and Nyiragongo volcano climbs are the name of the game here. Tracking mountain gorillas is rapidly becoming one of the world’s most rated wildlife encounters. And Virunga NP, with its top-notch facilities, excellent guides and low visitor numbers, is perhaps the most serene place for such a mind-altering experience.
