Enquire nowWhat to Buy for your Holiday to DRC?
Wondering what to buy for your holiday in DRC? Safety and easy navigation is the key thing to consider for your holiday in DRC, and a few basic additions will be useful on your travels.
You will need sturdy, good quality luggage that you can easily cart around. A decent backpack large enough to fit all your essentials but small enough to carry is essential. A money bag is also a good idea, although it may be safer to keep money and valuables in pockets out of sight of muggers.
A French phrasebook and the most recent DRC travel guide plus a recent, comprehensive map is also highly recommended. Never attempt to travel through the DRC alone, but even if you are traveling in an overlanding group it is a good idea to have a reference on hand to help you get around.
Tap water is never safe to drink, so having adequate bottled water at all times is crucial. You can buy water from almost everywhere in the country, so it is a good idea to stock up.
