Travelers to Virunga national park Congo can easily access the park by flying to Kigali international airport and from there you connect by road to Gisenyi Rwanda – Congo border and cross to Congo driving past Goma town heading to the park headquarters which can take about 3 hours. From the border to the park where you are received by the park officials including the rangers who are able to make your Congo tour the most memorable one and a safe tour is guaranteed.
However travelers from Uganda can still travel to Virunga through Bunagana Uganda – Congo border, but this is one of the rarely used routes to Congo Virunga national park; most travelers from Uganda to Congo prefer crossing to Rwanda first through Katuna Uganda – Rwanda border and then connect to Gisenyi town and cross to Congo. But this is a full day travel journey from Uganda to Virunga past Rwanda.
