Dr Bethan Davies and Dr Robert Jesty were kidnapped on Friday in the Virunga National Parkin the Democratic Republic of the Congo at the start of a gorilla trekking holiday.
However, they were released yesterday, although it remains unclear as to whether or not their release was secured through negotiations or a rescue operation.
A statement released by the two doctors said: "We are very relieved that there has been a positive outcome to the kidnapping and are very grateful for the excellent support we have received. We do not plan to comment further."
The Telegraph reports that they were treated for minor injuries but were otherwise unharmed.
