The best time to visit the Republic of the Congo is between June and September, when dry days bring the Congo Basin’s wildlife and rivers into focus. With 25°C to 30°C weather, it’s perfect for tracking gorillas in Odzala, boating the Congo River, or exploring Brazzaville. For fewer rains, try May or October.
