Congo Safari Tours | Gorilla Trekking & Wilderness Adventures with Kiwoito Africa Safaris

Discover the Untamed Heart of Africa on a Life-Changing Congo Safari

Experience the Congo Basin’s raw wilderness and come face-to-face with endangered mountain gorillas, lowland gorillas, and the rare okapi on our exclusive Congo safari tours. Kiwoito Africa Safaris invites you to explore the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) — Africa’s best-kept secret for wildlife lovers, adventurers, and conservation enthusiasts.

Why Choose a Congo Safari?

The Democratic Republic of Congo is one of the most biodiverse countries on Earth. Unlike more frequented safari destinations, Congo offers off-the-beaten-path safaris that immerse you in authentic, untouched wilderness.

Congo Safari Highlights:

• Mountain Gorilla Trekking in Virunga National Park

• Lowland Gorilla Encounters in Kahuzi-Biega National Park

• Climb Mount Nyiragongo – the world’s most active lava lake

• Cultural tours with local communities

• Scenic forest hikes and birdwatching in tropical rainforests

• Combine your trip with Rwanda or Uganda safaris for a unique East-Central Africa itinerary

Gorilla Trekking in Congo – A Rare and Ethical Experience

Virunga and Kahuzi-Biega National Parks are home to habituated gorilla families, allowing for intimate and ethical gorilla encounters. Unlike Rwanda and Uganda, Congo gorilla trekking permits are more affordable, with fewer crowds and deeper immersion into the forest ecosystem.

Fun Fact: Virunga is Africa’s oldest national park and a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
