Most Gabon travel is to the many Gabon Hotels to enjoy this prosperous and stable country in central West Africa. Gabon has thirteen new national parks that now protect a huge range of wildlife including sizeable populations of Western Lowland Gorillas, Forest Elephants, Chimpanzees, Monkeys, Forest Buffalo and much more. Low visitor numbers, unique wildlife viewing and pristine wilderness areas make this a true paradise for the wildlife enthusiast, although visitors should remember that with parks in their infancy, transportation and infrastructure are still developing and a spirit of adventure is needed. The itineraries are fully flexible and all are tailor made. Not all the parks are easily accessible yet and currently we recommend visiting one or more of the following areas: Loango National Park, Lope National Park, Ivindo National Park and the islands of Sao Tome & Principe.
