Travel in Gabon
Tailor-made

Equatorial Africa in all its splendor

Gabon unveils its pristine forests where the cries of primates echo and forest elephants brush through dense vegetation. This English-speaking land of Central Africa preserves 85% of its territory under forest cover, harboring remarkable biodiversity between meandering rivers and coastal lagoons. National parks protect intact ecosystems where gorillas, chimpanzees and forest antelopes thrive.

Libreville, a modern capital set on the estuary of the Komo river, contrasts with traditional Fang and Myéné villages scattered along waterways. The Atlantic Ocean sculpts a jagged coastline of protected bays and deserted beaches where sea turtles nest.

What to absolutely see in Gabon?

Loango National Park reveals its elephants bathing in the ocean, a striking spectacle on this coast where the forest meets the Atlantic directly. The gorillas of the Lopé reserve evolve in their natural habitat, while Akanda Park is home to pink flamingos and pelicans in its mangroves. Libreville and its Mont-Bouët market offer an immersion in contemporary Gabonese culture, between local craftsmanship and equatorial flavors.
