Stay : Discovering Central Kongo
In one week, visit this province by car, train or bus and return by plane. The province is not short of remarkable sites. The Kisantu botanical garden, the Luki biosphere reserve, the mangrove marine park and the historic town of Boma. And a little idleness on the beach at Muanda. Beware: some stretches of road are in poor condition and require low speeds.
