Congo River Full Day Tour and Picnic on River Island

Ride a pirogue for an amazing and timeless adventure into Africa’s most famous river. Gaze at monstrous Kinshasa and the countless ships, villages, and local fishermen as you go further up toward the islands and villages north of the rivertowns. See farmers tilling the riverside and going about their daily lives. See the DRC’s nearby river villages and markets, and communities on the enormous island in the river north of the Congo Pool. 

BBQ Picnic Lunch in the middle of the river, in a private sand island or at Faignond village overlooking Congo River Rapids!

The tour includes a scenic picnic on the river, in the middle of the Malebo Pool (the swell of the Congo River upstream from Kinshasa and Brazzaville, that concentrates its greatest flow) for you and your friends to enjoy. (An essential memory of your visit, and the best activity for any weekend!)

*Tours can also be scheduled at your leisure on a day and time and pickup spot of your choice.


**All tours include captain/driver, all park entrance fees, and of course the boat with all fuel and life jackets for all passengers. If you have any special arrangements you’d like to make please ask us. Prices are per person. 

**Barbecues are available on the weekends (order on the spot,) while picnics in the middle of the Congo River are available on weekdays (which we cater.)

***please alert us of any dietary considerations in advance of the tour.

“Have always been professional with our two trips with them... Before the trip: (Our guide) was punctual in our appointment, answered all our questions, gave us all kinds of information, prices were clear, and payments should be done. We were very satisfied with the security. They did not take risks... They asked us questions and corrected along the way if it was necessary (change of hotel, food, etc.) We recommend the excursions to other friends and colleagues and we want more excursions if the opportunity arises. (Other guide) is a good communicator with tourists and with the villagers we visited. We had the impression that he was respected by the people of the places we went. This also allowed us to feel safe and welcomed by the villagers. Our experience with him was very positive and we highly recommend it."
