Check-Ins

This place is open again. New bath house and restrooms. Same Texas State Park requirements and costs.

Very good value budget Airbnb. $31USD/night.1 bedroom bachelor’s suite with private bath, kitchen, washing machine, wifi, parking. Close to food and grocery shopping. Perfect place for riders to hole up and do maintenance and prep gear.
Host has remote check-in setup - book this through Airbnb only.

As the other place in the pine grove (to the south east) doesn't exist anymore (has been deforested) this is a suitable camping spot if you want a bit of shade or shelter from the wind. No one bothered us at all, some noise of the road though.

Easy to get to if you have enough ground clearance. Otherwise very calm.

There is secure parking on the roof, with a reasonably high entryway. We are 2,7m tall and had no problems.

A nice european style established campground. It's about 15 min to the eurotunnel and half an hour to the ferries. Comfortabele campsite with ample space for big rigs and facilities. 5 min walk to the beach with nice sunsets. Price is not super cheap but also not very expensive. We payed 25 euro for three people, a car and two tents.

Highly recommend. We have had a problem with our V8 Landy for several months. Tried mechanics in Kenya, Tanzania, Zambia. No joy. It took Aldo a couple of days, but he found it. He is really experienced and won’t give up until he has found the problem. Thorough. Our Landy now running like a dream. Aldo and wife Cathy super kind, allowed us to camp at their place whilst working on the Landy. Look no further Aldo is your man!

Just off the road that runs through the national park. At the time of writing the beach was very accessible to any type of car. In the evening there was even some drifting and ‘playing’ around with cars by locals on the beach as well but this ended as soon as the sun went under.

Police drove by but did not make any remarks that we were camping here. No signs that it would not be allowed either.

a place to make a number plate, they have Namibian and south African plates.
130 per plate, takes 10 minutes

Really busy and popular place outside the airport. Not cheap but delicious food and drinks and nice vibe. free wifi and lots of arts and crafts books etc to buy. would recommend

the nicest and most beautiful camping in this country

Camping and caravan park with about 100 stands, some with shade netting and pavement or camping on gras with trees here and there. Campsite do have a braai, power plug, tap close by and a dustbin.
The ablution block on my side was filthy. Water was warm but not hot, bring your own toilet paper.

The resort is having a predator center that I didn’t visit - and I didn’t know. Otherwise I wouldn’t have come here. Saw photos on google - the enclosures seems extremely small. You will hear the lions roaring at night what is usually nice but not looking at those enclosures …

There some rabbits and impalas roaming freely.

It was very quiet only a couple of campers. There are two pools - one is heated. Restaurant was closed.

There are also huts and small cabins to rent.

Camping is between 190 and 250 - depending on what spot you choose.

You can extend your visa here
Very easy!

This place is called Wanderer’s Rest.
It is owned by African Wanderer’s. I have tried to correct it in the details.

Parking d'une boutique cidre, whisky, biscuits. Si on leur demande ils nous laissent dormir gratuitement. Eau. Animaux de la ferme. Bord de route pas trop bruyant.

Great doners, really nice employees. Little English but make a good effort through Google translate.

refill propone bottle. in El marsa
it cost around 50 dr

tire shop really modern.
very good service.

A subida para o local, que fica ao lado da santinha. está bem complicada. Mas com cuidado consegue acessar. Na noite que ficamos lá, tinha muito vento. mas tirando isso, o local é muito calmo, tem uma visão das cidades iluminadas. E o por é nascer do sol é um espetáculo. Não possui nenhuma estrutura.

Very good Campspot for 140 pppn
Shelter from the strong wind. Enough Space for 5-7 campers.

Place is in a realy in a bad condition. not much rooftop left and trash / glass everywhere.

Realy good Campspot for 1-2 nights.
lot of shadow from the trees. more campspots are arround this place.
sperrgebiet is history in this area.

They ask for a lot of documents and just give transit visa (5 days). We asked for a regular/tourist visa and the consular agent said that this visa is only for residents.

The embassy only receives documents on Wednesday, 9-12. It’s better to go before to talk to them and confirm everything.

Documents:
- 2 photos (with tie for men), but the guy said the tie isn’t necessary
- copy of passport (data, RDC visa and stamp pages)
- hotel booking
- flight ticket (the guy said isn’t necessary if you’re traveling by land)
- proof of money
- document of your embassy saying that you’re tourist
- form filled

In the end, we will try the e-visa and try to enter via Luau border.

This embassy is next to Congo and Cameroon embassies.

Good value hotel. €34. Available for walk-in service.
Full service hotel, private secure parking. Very good for motorcycles travellers. Does the trick - cheap for area.

a dirt road off the bridge connecting villages, fields are a bit further away. Quiet spot though used as a transit road. only a few villagers came to say hello and no police. many spots along the road to park the car without being in anybody's way.

Safe location, right next to the church and municipal square.

We stayed at Marcel’s place for 2 nights. We really enjoyed it. They are still busy with building the lodge. Marcel showed us the land and the cattle. We had a great time. Everything was just like they said before

midsize Supermarket with mostly imported european products (both food and nonfood).

Lugar tranquilo para passar a noite, sem muito barulho. Banheiros liberados e limpos com banho quente no Recanto do Caminhoneiro. O buffet no RC fica R$ 38,00 por pessoa. Não abastecemos e ficamos aqui sem problemas. Recomendo.

Quiet Place to spend the night without much noise. Liberated and clean bathrooms with hot shower in the "Recanto do Caminhoneiro". The buffet at RC is R$ 38,00 per person. We didn't stock up and we stayed here without any problems. I recommend.

Huge gravel parking lot, level spots near the abandoned buildings, but WiFi is better near the restaurant. Lovely owners, allowed us to stay without any problems. Generator behind the building was turned off around 11 pm, only very little traffic on Ruta 40 during the night.
