Come and celebrate Equatorial Guinea's Independence Day with us! Often noted for being one of the least visited countries in Africa, largely due to its authoritarian regime and strict travel restrictions, there is no better way to experience this elusive nation than to take part of their Independence Day festivities.
As well as taking in everything that Independence Day itself has to offer, we'll also venture into most corners of the country on this tour, with an extensive itinerary of both the island of Bioko and the mainland. We'll go up and down both the eastern and western coasts of Bioko, visiting black and white sand beaches, a biodiversity centre, partially abandoned towns and buildings, and a chocolate plantation. We'll also explore the capital, Malabo, and drive to the highest point in the country, Mount Basila.
We'll fly to Bata on the mainland, the part of Equatorial Guinea that makes Malabo seem like a normal tourist destination. And here we'll visit Cuidad de la Paz, an absolute haven for those of us who love absurd, failed, monolithic building projects, and we'll have a night in a super luxurious 5-star resort hotel. We'll also take a peek at Mongomo, where the president's from, and catch a boat to the pristine island of Corisco.
If you like the look of this tour but the dates don't work for you, or you'd like to do part of the tour, please get in touch and let us know. All our tours are able to be split into smaller sections, we're always scheduling new tours and your dates might work for one of them, or we can always organise an independent tour.
