Is the Mboko Lodge for Me?
Mboko Lodge is where the grandeur of the Congo rainforest accommodation meets the open plains, offering a perfect, tranquil finale to your deep forest immersion. Set at the intersection of savannah, forest, and river, Mboko camp provides a front-row seat to the sheer staggering diversity of the Congolese ecosystem. Imagine hyenas prowling across open grasslands as colourful monkeys tussle in the nearby trees – every day brings a new adventure.
The Mboko camp accommodation consists of six spacious, canvas-sided bungalows tucked under the trees along a gentle brook. Designed for comfort and contemplation, each features works by local artisans and a private, screened-in porch or verandah, serenaded by the burbling water – a truly peaceful spot for reflection.
The heart of the lodge is a large, elevated pavilion with commanding views over the savannah, where you can enjoy exquisitely prepared cuisine around a stunning table carved from petrified wood. Mboko Lodge experiences focus on water and plains exploration: you can explore the nearby waterways by silent kayak or motor cruiser, or relax on the deck and take a refreshing dip in the gentle Lékéni River.
Your Congo safari with Discover Africa will include a stay at Mboko Lodge as part of your transformative journey through the wilderness.
