Democratic Republic of Congo

Introduction to Democratic Republic of Congo

Caution

Other than in Kinshasa, travel throughout the country is hazardous and difficult and many regions are highly insecure, particularly in the east and north of the country. The district of Ituri is especially dangerous according to the UN, with thousands of murders and rapes occurring each month amidst clashes between government troops, armed militia and tribal groups. Entry from Uganda or Rwanda should not be attempted.
