Rent a holiday apartment in North Kivu: discover Virunga

If you would like to rent a holiday apartment in North Kivu, start with the nature experience that will shape your trip. Virunga National Park and Nyiragongo are part of North Kivu's regional natural setting. This turns the search for accommodation into a specific location decision: the location should suit the experience you are actually planning.

Key facts on the topic

• North Kivu is located in the east of the Democratic Republic of the Congo.
• Goma is the capital of North Kivu and a regional point of reference.
• Virunga National Park and Nyiragongo are part of the province's natural setting; Nyiragongo is a volcano in the national park.

Nature experiences as a starting point

Anyone wishing to experience Virunga or Nyiragongo should base their accommodation search on this specific travel element. Therefore, begin your further planning with the desired nature experience and do not choose the accommodation location solely based on the name of the province. This helps you avoid assuming that the region's size automatically means short distances.

Goma as a regional point of reference

Goma is named as the capital of North Kivu and can serve as a point of reference for your initial regional planning. If you would first like to get an overview of the province, you can explore Goma in more detail. A specific accommodation decision should then continue to depend on the nature experience that forms the focus of your trip.

Holiday apartment or holiday home to suit your travel plans

Whether you rent a holiday apartment or a holiday home in North Kivu, it is best to compare options based on the location that is relevant to your planned nature experience. The type of accommodation is therefore part of your travel planning, but it does not replace the decision about which regional focus you actually wish to visit.
