FROM GOMA TOWN:

Idjwi Island
Idjwi Island, the biggest island in the DRC, lies in Lake Kivu. A journey to the island will expose you to the culture therein, including fishing and
agriculture. The distance from Goma to Idjwi is about 4 hours by boat. It means you may go there in the morning and come back in evening.

Masisi
This is a popular spot for viewing pygmy villages. There are also some beautiful villages filled with dairy farms, a curiosity to be sure in DRC, the Rwandan and Hunde tribes who were fighting in 1997; also there is a big Colton mining operation to visit.

Epulu Station (Ituri)
Located in the Ituri provinces, it has become a popular destination cause of the exceedingly rare Okapis and the presence of so many Bambouties (pygmies). Found only in the Congo, the Okapi is a shy and reclusive forest dweller and is the only living relative of the giraffe. In Epulu, one also has the possibility of walking in Ituri virgin forest with pygmies for watching their traditional ceremonies.
Pygmies live in villages that are categorized as bands. At the start
of the dry season they leave the village to enter the forest and set up a series of camps that allow them to be able to use more land area for maximum foraging.
These camps are solitary and temporary. Walls of the structures are poles that are placed in the ground. At the top of poles, a vine is woven to keep them together. Large leaves are also used in the construction of the huts.
Pygmies are primarily hunters, foraging for food in the forest. They
have a vast knowledge of the forest and food it yields. They use large nets,
traps, bows and arrows to hunt. Women and children sometimes help out by trying to drive animals into the nets. Each band has its own hunting ground although boundaries are hard to maintain. You will be allowed to follow such a group into the forest and, if possible, to take tents and set your camps near their bands.
You are invited to spend the night around the campfire, listening to their
endless hunting stories while they are smoking their cannabis water pipes under a beautiful blanket of African stars.

-Visit of Mt Mbia
-Visit of Mt Sida for viewing well the forest and trying to find different animals and birds
