It is possible to get transport between Kigali and Bukavu or from Bukavu all the way to Kigali. Some people travel from Rwanda to Bukavu to then continue to Kahuzi Biega. It is however not always possible to take this route as security might not be optimal. As this is two days driving for our driver (because he needs to go back), this is a lot more expensive than driving to Goma and also less secure.
“Hi Chris,Your staff and tour team were amazing! Ana showed up on time, which, after our experience with getting to the Congo, was amazing in itself. I loved the trip up the river in the pirogue and hope that Ana got a photo of me in the boat. I did get lots of interesting photos myself. My favorite parts the next day were visiting the museum about de Brazza and seeing the boys jumping into the rapids on the river. This part may not have been on the original tour but suggested by Fernand as a place to have lunch -- at the Rapids restaurant. Fernand, Mayc, and Serge were all reliable, caring and hospitable. They made me feel at home. Ana is a jewel -- friendly, reliable, adventurous and lovely.The trip to the gorilla preserve was also excellent. The preserve itself was very nice and it was wonderful to see the work they are doing protecting the gorillas. I sent two photos to Ana of the gorillas, but will send some other photos later.I would recommend Congo Travel and Tours to friends and family. Thank you for making the trip to Congo such an excellent experience."
