DESCRIPTION

Kissama National Park is an Angolan natural park, situated in Bengo province, the closest one to Luanda that is reachable by tourists. This tour is the single cheapest way to see a park in Angola on the entire internet or available anywhere in the country or capital.  

Kissama has an area of 9.600 km² and is 75km away from Luanda. The vegetation is varied from Kwanza riverbanks into the park: mangroves, dense woods, savanna, cacti, baobab trees,etc.

Its diversified vegetation allows a rich and varied fauna. There are african manatee, red sable, talapoins and sea turtles, for instance. If you are very lucky you can also see giraffes and elephants as well, 

The tour will start at the Kissama National Park. 

*Please note that the animals in the park during the civil war in Angola were almost entirely poached out and have only recently been re-introduced about a decade ago, and are taking time to re-populate. You will not see something like a private game reserve in Tanzania or South Africa. This is a very raw and new destination and the scenery is superb, and the birdlife world-class, but you will not see as many animals as the zoo-like factory farms of wildlife gawking in South Africa or East Africa. This in mind, enjoy and you'll have the whole place all to yourself!
