Brazzaville Safari Tours

Brazzaville, the capital of the Republic of Congo, is situated on the banks of the Congo River, its tranquil demeanor sharply contrasting with the vibrant activity of its neighboring city, Kinshasa, located across the turbulent waters of the river. This unpretentious city can best be characterized as charming, with its French background evident in the pale colonial architecture, tree-lined avenues, and historic Catholic churches.

Among the most remarkable landmarks in Brazzaville are the Catholic Churches: the magnificent Basilique Sainte-Anne, distinguished by its green-tiled roof and spear-shaped arch, and the Cathedral of the Sacred Heart, which provides stunning vistas of the city. The city’s relaxed atmosphere is interrupted by the vibrant activity of Marché Total, Brazzaville’s largest market, which offers a diverse assortment of products.
