    [description] => 

Republic of Congo, not to be confused with its much larger, volatile neighbour situated across the great Congo River, is a beautiful and peaceful former French colony. The country is little known and little explored, and with ecotourism in its infancy here, every visit is sure to be one of exciting discovery. After a flight from Brazzaville to the M’boko airstrip, we begin with a 3-night stay at Ngaga Camp, situated on the edge of Odzala-Kokoua National Park, where our primary focus will be Western Lowland Gorillas. Our next four nights are split between M’boko Camp, set in an area of lush, meadow-like savannah, frequented by Forest Buffalo and Forest Elephant, and Lango Camp which nestles within dense gallery forest overlooking Lango Bai. We’ll explore this little-known region by water, jeep and on foot before returning to Brazzaville for our flight home.

  • Based in 3 delightful camps, well situated for exploring Odzala-Kokoua National Park
  • Two opportunities to track Western Lowland Gorillas
  • 11 diurnal primate species found in Odzala-Kokoua including Guereza Colobus
  • Explore pristine rainforest with endemic wildlife
  • Spectacular forest birds such as Great Blue Turaco & Congo Serpent-eagle
[introduction] => An 11-day holiday to the Republic of Congo in search of Western Lowland Gorillas and the other wildlife of this exciting and little-visited country. [edges] => Array ( ) [locations] => Array ( [0] => Array ( [name] => Republic of the Congo [description] =>

Congo – the very word has the ability to send a tremble of excitement down even the most seasoned traveller’s back and, to Western minds, the explorer Henry Morton Stanley is most strongly associated with early explorations of the Congo Basin.

The Republic of the Congo, not to be confused with its much larger, volatile neighbour situated across the great Congo River, is a beautiful and peaceful former French colony. The country’s earliest inhabitants, the pygmies, were largely displaced in about 1500 BC by Bantu-speaking tribes; however, pygmy culture still persists in Republic of Congo.

Largely blanketed by equatorial rainforest, the Republic of Congo is little known and little explored. Distinct from the Democratic Republic of Congo, its more turbulent neighbour to the east, ‘The Congo’ — as it is also known — is set to become one of Africa’s finest wildlife destinations and every visit here is sure to be one of exciting discovery! On this new tour we will be based in the Odzala- Kokoua National Park, where pockets of savannah and scattered forest islands cover the landscape, dotted with ‘bais’, the damp, grassy clearings within the dense forest which are regularly visited by the local wildlife in search of water, minerals and abundant grazing.

After a flight from Brazzaville to the M’boko airstrip, we begin with a 3-night stay at Ngaga Camp, set in the heart of a towering Marantaceae forest, where our primary focus will be the Western Lowland Gorillas. In the hands of our expert guides, we have the opportunity to track two habituated families on foot, hoping for close views of these magnificent primates. Other species to look out for include Putty-nosed and Crowned Monkeys, Chimpanzee (more often heard than seen), Potto and Demidoff’s Galago.

Our next four nights are split between M’boko Camp, set in an area of lush, meadow-like savannah, frequented by Forest Buffalo and Forest Elephant, and the satellite Lango Camp which nestles within dense gallery forest overlooking Lango Bai. Eleven species of diurnal primate are found within the national park, with Grey-cheeked Mangabey, Guereza Colobus and Moustached Monkey all regularly seen. Nearly 450 species of bird have also been recorded in Odzala, and during our time here we hope to see a variety of these including Black-casqued Wattled Hornbill, Great Blue Turaco, Cassin’s Malimbe, Chocolate-backed Bee-eater and Congo Serpent-eagle. We will search for these on walks and drives, but as the forests here are drained by the Sangha, Mambili and mighty Congo Rivers, we will also take to the water to reach areas inaccessible by foot.

After seven days in this magnificent forest, it will all too soon be time to take our flight back to Brazzaville and from there on to London, with the sights and sounds of the glorious Congo rainforest remaining firmly imprinted in our memories for many years to come.

An 11-day holiday to the Republic of Congo in search of Western Lowland Gorillas and the other wildlife of this exciting and little-visited country.

With 12 cabins nestled in an area of lush meadow-like savannah bordering the tropical rainforest, the camp is frequented by Forest Buffalo, Forest Elephant and Spotted Hyena. Birding too is exceptional and special sightings may include Plumed Guinea-fowl, Hartlaub’s Duck, Cassin’s Malimbre, Bare-cheeked Trogon, Black Bee-eater, Blue-throated Roller, Spotbreasted Ibis, Forbes Plover, Chocolate-backed Kingfisher, Hairy-breasted Barbet, Spotted Greenbul, Fire-crested Alethe and Buff-throated Apalis. When not exploring this rich, swampy habitat by boat, visitors can explore on foot, often wading through the bai itself to access the most productive areas of the park’s forest-savannah mosaic habitat.

It has just six thatched guest rooms, each with twin beds, mosquito netting, fans and an en suite shower room. The entire camp is elevated several metres above the ground with walkways connecting the guest rooms, lounge, bar, dining area and stardeck. Activities on offer here include game drives, bird walks, or a pirogue (traditional boat) excursion making use of the permanent rivers that penetrate deep into the forest. Guereza Colobus monkeys are frequently seen in the trees above the camp, and Grey-cheeked Mangabey and Putty-nosed Monkey are often sighted in the nearby forest. There are also several Chimpanzee families in the vicinity which are frequently heard, but are harder to sight. The Lango Bai is regularly visited in the daytime by Forest Elephant, Forest Buffalo, Spotted Hyena, Harnessed Bushbuck and Western Sitatunga, while night-drives may reveal more elusive species such as Leopard, Red River Hog and the rare Bongo. At night the camp is sometimes visited by Aardvark, Golden Cat, Palm Civet and Pangolin.

The entire camp, including its six luxurious guest rooms, is built on raised decking that stands above the Ngaga stream, affording views of the surrounding canopy. The focus of a stay at Ngaga Camp is the enigmatic Western Lowland Gorilla. The territories of two habituated Gorilla groups encompass the camp and, with the help of an expert guide, it is possible to track these magnificent mammals on foot and observe them at close quarters. The forest birding at Ngaga is also first-rate and guests might hope for sightings of the huge Black-casqued Wattled Hornbill, Great Blue Turaco, Black-collared Lovebird, Chestnut Wattle-eye and even such rarities as Congo Serpent-eagle and Vermiculated Fishing-owl. Ngaga also has a much lower density of Forest Elephants and Forest Buffaloes than Lango and Mboko, so after dark it is possible to safely venture out on foot in search of the many nocturnal forest residents. Nocturnal primates are well represented here, and along with the more familiar Galagos (or Bushbabies), there is the possibility of sighting the bizarre Potto or Angwantibo – two slow-moving prosimians.

Summary

Largely blanketed by equatorial rainforest, the Republic of Congo is little known and little explored. Distinct from the Democratic Republic of Congo, its more turbulent neighbour to the east, ‘The Congo’ — as it is also known — is set to become one of Africa’s finest wildlife destinations and every visit here is sure to be one of exciting discovery! On this new tour we will be based in the Odzala- Kokoua National Park, where pockets of savannah and scattered forest islands cover the landscape, dotted with ‘bais’, the damp, grassy clearings within the dense forest which are regularly visited by the local wildlife in search of water, minerals and abundant grazing.

After a flight from Brazzaville to the M’boko airstrip, we begin with a 3-night stay at Ngaga Camp, set in the heart of a towering Marantaceae forest, where our primary focus will be the Western Lowland Gorillas. In the hands of our expert guides, we have the opportunity to track two habituated families on foot, hoping for close views of these magnificent primates. Other species to look out for include Putty-nosed and Crowned Monkeys, Chimpanzee (more often heard than seen), Potto and Demidoff’s Galago.

Our next four nights are split between M’boko Camp, set in an area of lush, meadow-like savannah, frequented by Forest Buffalo and Forest Elephant, and the satellite Lango Camp which nestles within dense gallery forest overlooking Lango Bai. Eleven species of diurnal primate are found within the national park, with Grey-cheeked Mangabey, Guereza Colobus and Moustached Monkey all regularly seen. Nearly 450 species of bird have also been recorded in Odzala, and during our time here we hope to see a variety of these including Black-casqued Wattled Hornbill, Great Blue Turaco, Cassin’s Malimbe, Chocolate-backed Bee-eater and Congo Serpent-eagle. We will search for these on walks and drives, but as the forests here are drained by the Sangha, Mambili and mighty Congo Rivers, we will also take to the water to reach areas inaccessible by foot.

After seven days in this magnificent forest, it will all too soon be time to take our flight back to Brazzaville and from there on to London, with the sights and sounds of the glorious Congo rainforest remaining firmly imprinted in our memories for many years to come.
