Frequently Asked Questions
What's the absolute best time of year to visit Loango Lodge for wildlife viewing, and what should we pack for it?
We love visiting Loango Lodge during the dry season, from June to September. This is when the forest thins out, making it easier to spot the park's incredible wildlife, from forest elephants to hippos. Pack lightweight, breathable clothing in neutral colours, good walking shoes, and definitely a high-quality pair of binoculars – you won't regret it.
Beyond the game drives, what unique activities does Loango Lodge offer that truly capture the spirit of Gabon?
While the game drives are essential, we highly recommend experiencing the lagoon fishing.

The lodge also offers guided forest walks, which are surprisingly intimate and offer a chance to learn about the smaller wonders of the ecosystem.
