Africa Travel Guide - Angola - Quissama National Park

Quissama Parque Nacional


The easiest way to enter the park is from the coast road, connecting Luanda with Sumbe. This entrance is 70kms south of Luanda, 20kms south of Mirador de Lua. 5kms before reaching the entrance, there is a bridge over the Quanza river. There is a 210 Quanzas toll for crossing this bridge.


Entrada / Entry Fee:

4000 Quanzas/Person
2000 Quanzas/Car

The park does not allow the visitors to go for a safari using their own vehicles. It is mandatory to get a park guide, using one of the park's trucks.

safaris are 4000 Quanzas per person (about 28 euros in November 2015).
Safaris can start as early as 6am or as late as 15:00. Safaris take two hours.

According to the park guides, any time of the day is good to see animals. In other words, it does not matter if you take your safari at sunrise, at noon or at sunrise. We took our safari at 13:30 and we saw most big animals: elefants, girafs, zebras, antilopes, etc.
