Congo

There is some risk to your security when travelling outside the cities of Brazzaville and Pointe Noire and we advise caution. Currently the situation is peaceful but it could change suddenly. Travel between Brazzaville and Pointe Noire should only be by air. Armed gangs attack those travelling by road and by train.

For the rest of the Congo there is a high risk to travellers. There is instability, and a risk of rebel activity. We advise against non-essential travel and at night
