Zongo Falls

Zongo falls are located just 135 kms away from Dr Congo’s Capital kinshasa on the Moanda road.  The lovely falls are perfect place for relaxation and rewinding.Zongo Park provides a lovely setting & a spectacular scenery to the Zongo Waterfalls. The gorgeous 65m-high Zongo falls are one of DRC’s most spectacular sights. It takes 3 to 4 hours to reach Kisantu in the Bas Congo where the waterfall is located. Getting to the viewpoints involves some hiking, but watching the water roaring over the precipice into the river below is unforgettable. What makes Zongo waterfalls unique is the water vapor that rises to the sky when the river water hits the ground. If in dry season, you might go to the beach located 10 km away from the waterfall, there you could experience the massage waterfall.

During the great dry season, which lasts from June to mid-September, Kigali is around 20.5 ° C warm. In the little rainy season.

Safety

Due to the unstable political situation in the country, the republic is considered a less safe travel destination in contrast to some neighbouring countries. That’s why our DR Congo Tours are only on reservation and with prior checking of the current security situation.

Eastern regions are often less secure than other parts of the country due to the high mineral density and disputes over influence. In larger cities, beware of pickpockets and behave discreetly.

Infrastructure

In fact Congo’s road network is only marginally developed and only about two per cent of the roads are paved. This is mainly due to the fact that the heavy rains in the Congo Basin make the conditions for road or rail construction difficult. Waterways are therefore preferred throughout the country.

Since navigable rivers run through two-thirds of the country, this facilitates the connection between the cities. The electricity and water supply, like the road network, is worse. Only about ten per cent of the population has access to electricity and water. A telephone or mobile network is usually only available in larger cities and it does not always work reliably there either.
