Kinshasa - Post Report Question and Answers
Do you feel that it is safe to walk, run or hike outside? Are there areas where bike riding is possible? What is the availability and safety of outdoor space for exercising? Are these easily accessible?
There's only a couple areas in the city that is safe to walk around: golf course and river loop area, and even there keep your head on a swivel. Listen to the RSO brief at post; there's a reason most areas are off limits and they recommend not going out. Forget about traveling outside of Kinshasa. DRC is a dangerous country, a little bit of research and you will find out why. There were times during our tour that you even had to have armed security to take you to the airport. - May 2024
