Includes special escort, all formalities, and expedited assistance from police and immigration.
THE BRIDGE FURTHER DOWN TO THE NORTH FROM BRAZZAVILLE IS CLOSED INTERMITENTLY AND DANGEROUS AS OF AUGUST 2017 - DO NOT ATTEMPT THE NORTHERN CROSSING - THERE HAVE BEEN SERIOUS MUGGINGS AND EVACUATIONS OF INJURED OVERLANDERS TRAVELING ALONE.
4wds used to have to go to Kinkala then Boko then Luozi. Now they are stuck in the capital or have to turn around and go through Gabon. Due to the political situation on the south part of the country (Pool) the ROC road can be closed or dangerous sometimes. Please get real information on this rather than surfing Tripadvisor and Lonely Planet Thorntree and Century Club forums. The DRC roads due to Angola and east to Lubumbashi may not pan out for you either, so make sure you have your visas firmly in the passport for Angola if you are bound that way, and plan on a very very long drive and lots of breakdowns to reach Katanga.
Pickup from any hotel or location in either city.

It starts from 4000 euro to cross the river as it comes with a bunch of paperwork and hassle on the DRC side, and this includes also permission to drive in the DRC. You need to wait 1- 3 days in Kinshasa for the car to arrive until it's cleared. Don't ask for cheaper - it won't happen.
“Having breakfast with magnificent view over the misty Sangha river... Can't help thinking about Apocalypse now. Wading through shallow waters with the sun penetrating through the bursts of the forest's leafy ceiling, creating a magnificent red and orange forest floor. Hiking through the deep mysterious jungle, flashes of gorillas in front of you as you walk, elephant sounds in the back, tons of beautiful butterflies gliding with us through the forest as our cano helps us through the swamp. Mysterious eyes of bush babies, fire flies and glowing spiders during night walks. The chanting of the pygmy hunters in the back of our truck ... This has truly been one of my most fascinating travels so far ...Satellite internet in the jungle from Central African Republic, pretty cool"
