Central African Republic: A Journey to the Heart of the Unexpected
More than 66% of Central Africans live in villages, certainly scattered along communication routes, but still difficult to access. Thus, their traditions remain very much alive, especially as they keep their culture very secret. However, once they trust you, they open their doors to you. The Central African fauna and flora are also very well preserved. In this country where animals and plants enjoy a very generous natural environment, the struggle is constant between man and the elements. Thus, powerful and violent storms provide exceptional demonstrations of the force of nature. A pure moment of contemplation.
A Journey to the Heart of Authentic Africa
The Central African Republic is a true gem for travelers seeking off-the-beaten-path experiences. With its vast expanses of savannahs and dense tropical forests, this country offers an impressive biodiversity to explore. Imagine yourself walking through the tropical forests, where the birds' songs and the rivers' murmurs create an enchanting natural symphony.
The charm of the country also lies in the warmth of its people, always ready to share their rich culture and ancestral traditions. In Bangui, its dynamic capital, you can discover a colorful market where spicy flavors and handcrafted items awaken the senses.
For adventurers, the opportunity to observe elephants and other wildlife in their natural habitat is an unforgettable experience. A stay in the Central African Republic promises fascinating discoveries and total immersion in a still little-known Africa.
A Pristine Country, Away from Mass Tourism
Towards the Congolese and Cameroonian borders, only the Ngotto forest and the Dzanga-Sangha reserve have lodges and trained guides, not to mention the luxurious hunting camps in the northern region. The country's isolation, which has helped preserve its incredible natural wealth, also contributes to limiting the number of tourists. Only a few hundred venture each year to discover the gorillas and numerous waterfalls. Consequently, tourist infrastructures, especially hotels, are almost non-existent outside Bangui.
There is no real predefined or marked route, gathering some information is a challenge, no tourist site is sustainably maintained, and scams are numerous. But adventurers, equipped with good resourcefulness and patience beyond measure, will be fully satisfied.
The Diversity of Wildlife in the Central African Republic
Located in its southern part, at the crossroads of Eastern, Western, and Central Africa, as well as at the junction of Sahelian and tropical zones in the northern part, the Central African Republic is home to diverse wildlife and lush flora. Their impressive exuberance is particularly expressed in real vegetal walls as well as in myriads of insects and reptiles.
