Our bespoke tours are created to your desire and specification, therefore not all our tours are listed. Here are some examples of independent tours we can offer, but if there’s anything specific you want, drop us a message.
Dzangha-Sangha National Park
The National Park of Dzanga-Sangha is CAR’s number one destination for nature- lovers. In fact, it might well be one of the most interesting wildlife sites of Africa, albeit a very underrated one. Located by the border of Cameroon and Congo in the southern part of the country, the protected areas of Dzanga Sangha are well renowned for their western lowland gorillas and forest elephants.
The park is administered directly by the WWF and has some very well-organized and clean lodges available for tourists, such as the Doli Lodge. To reach the park, it will be necessary to charter a flight from Bangui, which is not as expensive as it sounds! There is a weekly flight available.
Jungle Treks & Birdwatching
CAR’s dense rainforest is a treasure trove waiting to be explored. Guided jungle treks take you deep into these ecosystems, where you can find exotic birds, rare primates, and a vast plant life. Birdwatchers, in particular, will delight in spotting species found only in this part of Africa. These treks can be tailored for short immersive experiences or extended multi-day expeditions.
Pigmy village tour
While the neighboring country of South Sudan hosts the world’s tallest ethnicity, the Dinkas, CAR is known for having the world’s shortest ethnicity, the Aka or Pygmy peoples. Located in the western and southern forested regions of the country, some of the Pygmy tribes welcome visitors, and it is possible for us to organize visits and stays amongst the people.
Tours of Bangui
For those who are short on time or on a budget, Young Pioneer Tours can organize accommodation and tour guides in Bangui. During this tour, of 1 to 3 days, we will take you around the main sights of the boomtown of CAR. Also, for those on a longer project in Africa necessitating complicated visas, some embassies in CAR offer much easier processes to acquire visas for African countries such as Equatorial Guinea. For any project involving CAR, get in touch with us!
Palace of Emperor Bokassa
Explore the fascinating world of CAR’s most infamous ruler at the Palace of Emperor Bokassa. Built in the 1970s, the palace is a mix of grandeur and eccentricity. Guided tours bring Bokassa’s story to life, highlighting the palace’s unusual architecture, murals, and hidden details.
Multi-country Frontier Journeys
CAR’s strategic location in Central Africa makes it perfect for overland explorers. We can organize multi country expeditions linking CAR with neighboring Congo and Cameroon. These journeys traverse savannahs, forests, and rivers, offering the chance to experience the region’s diverse landscape while tracing historic trade and exploration routes.
Chutes de Boali Waterfalls
Just a short drive from Bangui, the Chutes de Boali is one of CAR’s most spectacular natural landmarks. This series of cascading waterfalls, set amid lush greenery, offers great photography opportunities. Visitors can take in the roar of the falls, enjoy walks along the surrounding trails, and experience the local life in nearby villages.
