How to travel from Kitwe in Zambia to Kabale in Uganda through the DRC - Calm anonymous women on sandy slope

Has anyone recently traveled in the eastern DRC, the Democratic Republic of the Congo? I'm considering moving south to north, from, roughly, Lubumbashi to the border with Uganda. However, it currently ain't all peaches in this region.

So, for simplicity's sake, how to travel from Kitwe to Kabale, through the DRC, using public transport? Or, perhaps more sensibly, anyone has any personal experience traveling around in this region?



Best Answer

Eastern Congo is affected by the rebel activities. Recent reports of rebels fighting with the army have been reported. Even gorilla tourism (in this region) have been affected and tourists can only for gorilla trekking in Uganda or Rwanda. Will update you when the security situation has improved in the region.
