While public transport is available, nothing beats the flexibility and freedom of a rented car. There are several car rental services available right at the airport including Sixt, Avis, and Europcar. Remember, in Congo, you drive on the right-hand side of the road, unlike the left-hand drive common in the UK.
With the diverse terrains, choosing the right car is crucial for your adventure. For city driving around Brazzaville or Pointe-Noire, a compact car would suit your needs. An SUV or 4x4 would be ideal for those planning to explore more rugged destinations like the rainforests or national parks.
Rental cars are typically given with a full tank of fuel. There are abundant petrol stations across major roads and cities where you can refill as you move. Remember, Congo uses XAF (CFA Franc) as its currency, so be prepared for the exchange rate.
Your journey from Maya-Maya airport to the city centre is a brief 5 km drive. The Route Nationale 1 (RN1) and RN2, connecting the major cities and tourist destinations, are asphalt roads in good condition.
The Republic of Congo experiences a tropical climate, with temperatures generally warm throughout the year. Always check the forecast before you go, to ensure you pack the right gear and plan your itinerary accordingly.
From Maya-Maya airport, Brazzaville, the capital city, is just a stone's throw away. Other nearby cities include Pointe-Noire on the western coast and Ouésso in the north. Each with a unique mix of local culture, gastronomy, and sightseeing attractions.
While English is growing increasingly common in major cities and tourist areas, French remains the official language of the Congo Republic. A basic understanding of French would come in handy during your visit.
