About Visit Congo Now
Visit Congo Now exists to share the beauty, culture, and ecological importance of the Democratic Republic of Congo with the world.
This education and travel site is a bridge between people who are curious about Congo and the local experts, guides, and conservation efforts that make meaningful travel experiences possible.
Our Mission
We believe Congo is one of the most important and misunderstood places on Earth.
Home to vast rainforests, incredible biodiversity, and rich cultural heritage, the DRC plays a vital role in the health of our planet. Our goal is to highlight what is possible here through responsible tourism, conservation awareness, and real, on-the-ground connection.
Local Leadership
Visit Congo Now is guided by local expertise.
Obed Temba, founder of Kumbu Kumbu Tours, brings deep knowledge of the land, the communities, and the realities of travel in the DRC. His work is rooted in both tourism and conservation, helping create access while respecting the environment and local culture.
Working alongside a trusted network, including partners like Congo Rainforest Fund, the ICCN, University of Bukavu, and more, this platform is built on real relationships.
Boots on the Ground
Travel in Congo requires more than a booking button.
We work with local teams who are actively on the ground. Guides, coordinators, and community partners are available to support your journey, from planning to execution, ensuring that experiences are both safe and meaningful.
Where You Can Travel
While not all areas of the DRC are open to tourism, there are regions that are protected, stable, and accessible today.
We focus on highlighting those areas and creating pathways for responsible travel within them. Safety, local guidance, and up-to-date knowledge are always part of the process.
