River Cruise
Every bend in the river brings the potential of another discovery: an elephant and her young grazing along the banks, a family of mangabey monkeys swinging in the trees, a flock of spine-tail swifts diving madly for insects. One constant: the magnificent beauty of a wilderness untouched by human hands.
Nature Walks
Our intimate guided walks reveal the richness of the Congolese tropical humid forest and foster a deeper understanding of its precious ecosystem and the flora and fauna it harbours. Hear the sounds of the forest, smell the dewy humidity and feel connected to something greater than the sum of what your senses can perceive.
Kayaking
Dip your paddle into the pristine waterways of the Congo Basin and explore the wilderness from a new angle. As you drift along, keep your eyes open for cavorting monkeys, colorful birds, and elephants grazing on the banks. The tranquil beauty of your surroundings will soothe your soul.

Meet the team
Brice Imouanga
Born in the village of Mbinda in the southern Republic of the Congo, Brice joined Kamba in 2015 as a head waiter and bartender, gradually working his way up the ladder to executive assistant. After a two-month management training course in South Africa, he was appointed Assistant Camp Manager and finally promoted to his current position. One of our true success stories, Brice credits his success to “teamwork, giving the best of yourself, respect for colleagues, and sharing knowledge, without forgetting the ability to listen.” Indeed, listening is what helped Brice learn English. “I had never studied English at school but learned it by myself using dictionaries and listening to songs in my free time. You must fight to achieve your goals.”
