Welcome to Democratic Republic of Congo

• Capital of DR Congo: Kinshasa
• Population of DR Congo: 89.6 million - 4th in Africa
• Size of DR Congo: 2,344,858 km2 - 2nd in Africa
• Languages in DR Congo: French (official), Lingala, Kingwana, Kikongo, Tshiluba

Democratic Republic of Congo possesses a wealth of scenic highlights, ethnic diversity, and a complex history. Inaccessible for many years due to conflict, the country once again draws adventurous and confident travelers looking for a different type of vacation. For those who can forego the usual home comforts and quickly adapt to challenging conditions, the rewards of a holiday in Democratic Republic of Congo are numerous - trekking through unspoiled forests, spotting endemic wildlife, and meeting welcoming, inspiring people.

Highlights

• Climb Nyiragongo Volcano. Towering over the city of Goma, this spectacular natural wonder last erupted just eight years ago. Mind the lava lake at the top – it may be spectacular, but it’s also deadly
• Track Gorillas.  A momentous effort has been made to open up the Parc National des Virungas with its resident mountain gorillas. Tracking here is a rather wilder experience than across the border in Rwanda’s Parc National des Volcans and Uganda’s Impenetrable Forest: they have lodges! It’s hoped that gorilla tracking will provide a boost to international confidence in DRC and protect those gorillas that have survived years of human conflict
• Cross the River. Packed to within an inch of its life, a public ferry wobbles across the water from Kinshasa to Brazzaville, giving you the chance to get another exotic passport stamp. Don't get stranded though: it stops running in the afternoon, never runs on Sundays, and sometimes just stops running at all
