Reinventing tourism in Afrika
Kwafrika Travel is proud to announce the expansion of our operations with the establishment of a new office in Kampala (Masajja), strategically located near Entebbe Road. This move strengthens our presence in East Africa, allowing us to better serve our clients and partners in the region. Additionally, we have opened another office in Kinshasa (Limété 18è Rue) to reinforce our reach in Central Africa, supporting our continued expansion into Congo Brazzaville.
For over five years, Kwafrika Travel has been the leading tour operator in DR Congo, renowned for delivering personalized, efficient service with a strong brand identity and innovative strategies. As pioneers in ecotourism, we reinvest 20% of our profits into community projects, supporting sustainable tourism and local development. We work closely with local experts, providing training and employment opportunities as guides to leverage their deep knowledge of the region. Our multilingual team—fluent in English, French, Kiswahili, and Spanish—ensures exceptional customer service, carefully tailoring experiences to meet each client’s unique expectations, as reflected in our outstanding reviews.
Innovation is at the heart of Kwafrika Travel. We have developed exclusive routes and activities in remote areas untouched by other tour operators. Our expeditions take travelers to Mbandaka, where they can engage with remote communities like the Pygmies, Ekonda, and Tomba people. We organize unique Congo River adventures from Kinshasa, visiting fishing villages and tracking wild bonobos. In Eastern Congo, we lead treks to encounter both Eastern Lowland and Mountain Gorillas in Kahuzi-Biega and Virunga National Parks.
Continuing our tradition of groundbreaking travel experiences, from January 2023, Kwafrika Travel will be the only tour operator in DR Congo—and possibly the world—offering virtual reality trips, allowing travelers to explore the country from anywhere.
