Diamond mining is big in the area around Mbuji Mayi. We can find many diamond traders inside the city center and just outside the city there are many open pits where people are searching for diamonds. The safety conditions of these mines are very poor and the equipment and installations are very basic. For this tour we will go in a comfortable 4x4 with armed security to go visit the mines. We will see how they go in the ground with their torches and go look for diamonds. After our visit we will then go to a nice area near the river to relax and have a drink
Have a look at some of our videos from our last trip:
"Everything was great! Thank you so much for all your help.
The gorillas were very special, but I must say going to that village was truly the highlight of the trip. I was told that I was the first tourist to ever visit. Who does that?!?! Badji and his brother did a great job. I was lucky to have them both.This was truly a one of a kind adventure!"- BC, RoC Gorilla Tracking and Mayombe Forest Adventure
