Reliable and honest
I booked a tour of the volcano in Virunga NP and had a great experience. The business is located in Gisenyi and Goma and they focus on DRC tours, although they have contacts with operators in East Africa. They were generally honest and reliable when it came to pricing, timings and visas. A relatively new operator that will continue to gain experience of running tours in this particularly complicated country to travel in.

I've been backpacking in Africa for two months. I debated a lot if spending the money on these three days, and it was the most amazing three days of my trip. Volcano is the most amazing place I have ever been and the gorillas were also amazing. The instructors were also amazing and gave me a good feeling and made sure I was really happy and decided to invest in it. Thank you, Barak

Such a beautiful and unique experience
I had a beautiful experience trekking the Nyiragongo volcano with congo safari tours. Trekking the volcano has long been a dream of mine, so I was devasted when I found out the park had closed. As soon as I heard it was reopening, however, I contacted CDS to hear about the possibilities. Barack was extremely friendly, informative and responsive and helped ensure me as spot of the first group heading back up the mountain. I was naturally a bit worried about visa/the security situation, but CDS made me feel secure and safe the entire time. Barack and his family were wonderful before and after the tour and made me feel very much at home. Thank you again CDS! This dream wouldn't have come true without you. I will definitely be back soon!!

The best trip I’ve ever been on. I consider Ken (guide) a close friend now
Outstanding. I had a tour booked fir Virunga, we found out about one month away that Virunga wasn’t going to open in time for our trip. CDS made some last minute changes and we went to Kahuzi Biega instead.

The best Experience!
Congo Discovery Safaris helped me fine tune my itinerary so it would suit me down to the very last detail. I had an amazing adventure in Rwanda, DRC and Uganda and did many things including gorilla tracking in Congo and a climb of Mont Bisoke in Rwanda.
I was a bit concerned before going about safety and visa etc but I was helped with all of those issues and everything went very smooth. even when I wanted to swap a hotel for another, it was not a problem. Barack (Company chief) and his team are honest, knowledgable and passionate about their jobs and we had many laughs together on this trip as well as me learning a lot about the this part of Africa.

Excellent
Congo Discovery were very flexible when organising thetrip and sending us all the information we needed on a timely manner. All the
Hotels were very nice and very well organised. The best part was of our Gorillas
Trekking in Kahuzi Biega National Park and Barack our driver guide, he was very
knowledgeable and always explained so many things about Gorillas and the
culture in Congo. It was our first time to Africa, a must see destination! We had an
amazing experience and would definitely recommend Congo Discovery Safaris to
our friends and family.

INCREDIBLE SAFARI
We decided to book a safari in Uganda and Rwanda via Congo Discovery, we were offered a discount and all bookings including flights were taken care of. We had an incredible 11 days and this was our best holiday ever, with memories to cherish for a lifetime. I have never taken so many photos in my life. Great service and will recommend to family and friends.
Thanks.

CONGO DISCOVERY SAFARIS COMPANY IS THE BEST
Last week I went on a safari booked through Congo Discovery to hike in Nyungwe Fores and see Gorillas in Kahuzi Biega National Park, and it was fantastic! It was an incredible trip that we'll remember for a lifetime. All of our guides in Rwanda and Barack in Congo were extremely knowledgeable and professionals, our lodges, hotels and camps were amazing,
everything was quite perfect, Thanks Barack and Ken :)

Great DRC trip with friendly and competent organisation
I did a short trip to Bukavu, Kahuzi Biéga Parc and Lwiro. The organisation with Barack went very smoothly for the visa barely two weeks before my arrival. Once in DRC, our communication stayed very good, adapting to and anticipating constraints when I expressed wishes. The driver called Junior was also very friendly and helpful all the way. There was never any bad surprises with them, always in good hands. If I could give more stars I would. Thank you Barack and Junior!

Awesome and unforgettable visit that ended with a magical trip to Nyungwe Forest
In my life I have been in two or tree Safaris at least because I really enjoy this activity. However, I should state that at Congo Discovery they are outstanding doing what they do. It was very easy to work with them as they are very well organized, informative and efficient. My visit was awesome! Everything was so perfectly dealt with; and on top of it I ended with a magical trip to Nyungwe Forest. I highly recommend booking safaris to Uganda and Rwanda through Congo Discovery, Noela and Barack are amazing and their Insight on Rwanda is extraordinary! This was an memorable experience in all possible ways.
