Introduction

Tiger fishing in the D.R.Congo. Go Congo Tour Operator operates an 7, 10 or 14 day trip for those of you who dream to catch a giant tiger fish (Hydrocynus Goliath). Visit the Democratic Republic of Congo and hunt for the giant Goliath in a truly magical setting. You will be captivated by the beauty of nature untamed.

Go Congo offers you the famous Black River (= Mai Ndombe), as well as a section of the Congo River as a hunting ground for your fishing adventures. Although the Tiger fish of the Black River are more modest in size as those of the Congo River, fishing on the Black River is good all year round. It has earned its reputation thanks to the book by Douglas Dann

Our River Cruiser is a 20-meter long, wooden boat, equipped with two powerful outboard engines. This traditional type of boat is further equipped with safety equipment, sanitary installation, a generator, lighting and freezers. The boat is operated by a licensed and experienced captain, a mechanic and 2 sailors. A cook and a tourist guide are present to pamper our clients. Evenings and nights are spent ashore, enabling cultural exchanges with the local population.

Accommodations consist of a hotel in Kinshasa and a tented encampment in the interior. As beds, we offer self-inflating mattresses with cotton mattress covers. Travellers are expected to bring their own bed linen. Travellers are expected to bring their own towels and shampoo/soap.
