4-Day Le Petit Ngila (Monday, Wednesday and Friday)
4-Day Le Petit Ngila, Ngila & New Packages Ngila is online to open in the beginning of June. One could call it a tented camp, but we would like to think it is much more than that. The main building is thatched with large windows and doors to maintain the warmth provided by two roaring fires to cosy up to and enjoy delicious food cooked by our Congolese chefs. The tents are on raised wooden decks with sweeping views of the volcanos around, which can also be enjoyed from each tent’s bath.
