Gabon & São Tomé and Príncipe

1 itinerary · 0 open departures · 0 missions

Gabon is a Central African nation bordering the Atlantic Ocean, renowned for its vast, largely untouched rainforests that cover around 85% of the country and its exceptional wildlife — including forest elephants, western lowland gorillas, and humpback whales off its coast. São Tomé and Príncipe is a small island nation in the Gulf of Guinea, known for its lush volcanic scenery, Portuguese colonial heritage, and some of the world's most biodiverse ecosystems. Together, these destinations attract adventurous travellers drawn to gorilla trekking, whale watching, pristine beaches, and remote eco-tourism far off the beaten path.

Self-Launched Gabon & São Tomé and Príncipe Adventure — 13 Days

One of the most extraordinary off-the-beaten-path double-destination trips in Africa — gorilla trekking and beach safaris in Gabon's Loango National Park, followed by island-hopping across São Tomé and Príncipe. This self-launched version replaces the guided group tour with independently booked lodges, local guides hired on arrival, and scheduled regional flights, saving you thousands of pounds while giving you full control of your pace. Note: these two destinations are genuinely remote and expensive to reach — accommodation and internal flights account for the bulk of costs. All prices are approximate estimates per person.

Missions

Nobody's posted a Mission for Gabon & São Tomé and Príncipe yet — which, frankly, is an opportunity.

Wait, what's a Mission?It's not a scheduled trip with dates and a minimum group size like a Departure — it's a goal. Learn to dive, do a Muay Thai camp, live somewhere for a month and work on something, chase one very specific experience. Post it, and other people chasing the same thing find you.

Be the first to post one: "Eat the strangest thing on the menu every single day for a week and document the regret."
