How much is the cost of lowland gorilla trekking in Republic of Congo

This can be a very complicated question based on the includes and Excludes of each safari but we do provide estimates.

First and foremost travelling to the Republic of Congo is pretty expensive due to its remote location making it quite tricky to access and this continues down to the logistics and limited accommodation facilities in Odzala kokoua national park.

Logistics

The only way to get to Odzala kokoua national park is by charter flights through Congo conservation Company from the Main capital Brazzaville, the 1-2 hour flight will land near the rainforest and a 4×4 safari vehicle is then used to transfer you between the Camps meaning a lot of logistic planning is required for a trip to the Republic of Congo.

Expedition leaders

All our safaris to the Republic of Congo are escorted by Expedition leaders from either East Africa or Southern Africa this is to ensure the smooth running of the expedition.

Camps and Lodges

There are currently Four Camps operating in this area and the biggest has 10 rooms and the rest has 6 rooms meaning booking way in advance is the only option and this can affect the prices of safaris to this destination.
