Cameroon is great but beware of fraud - Cameron Harr. Date of travel: Oct 2007
We went up to Waza (savannah-type climate) and down to Lobeke (deep Central-African Jungle) and the country is beautiful, albeit somewhat primative. However, we were cheated out of a lot of money by Equatorial Tours.

Don't expect much - Cameron Harr. Date of travel: Oct 2007
We had to adjust at first to some of the hotels, although we realized the first hotels (Serena Palace in Douala) were relatively very nice. As we got deeper into the country, conditions got worse. If you're away from civilization, expect lots of bugs (alive and dead) and very limited bathrooms, such as no hot water and no toilet and sometimes no sink. On the bright side, we got accustomed to it and when we hit civilization, the hotels seemed luxurious.

Exotic, Beautiful, Dangerous Cameroon - Anonymous. Date of travel: Jan 2007
The view of the small islands from the cliffs at the coast in Limbe are fantastic - some day there will be a world class 5-star resort here. The beaches at Kribi are exactly what a tropical beach ought to be, complete with jungle foliage reaching right up to the beach where natives' small boats are laid upside down and even a waterfall that drops directly into a cove. Jungles and mountains. All of it is magnificent. There are just a couple of special problems. At night, Cameroonians prefer to drive with their headlights shut off in the apparent belief that it saves the battery. About half of all cars, trucks, and even motorcycles will be dark. So don't travel at night. Roads are litte more safe in the daylight as there are barely any divided highways and so vehicles are passing all the time, particularly on the heavily travelled winding mountainous road between Yaounde and Douala. Near crashes in head-on collisions are frequent. Oh, and one very special problem. Be careful taking photos. Sometimes the natives are apt to fly into a homicidal rage when they learn their photo has been taken without permission. Very frightening.

Captivated by Cameroon - Patrick Wegner. Date of travel: Aug 2006
I visited Cameroon last year on a trip through West Africa and would love to return. The country is almost totally devoid of travellers and has little tourist infrastructure and this is part of its charm. It will undoubtably one day be "discovered"; is has pristine deserted beaches, national parks, desert and the highest mountain in West Africa. Diverse indeed. The Cameroon capital is Yaoundé where you'll find typical African markets and a myriad of ethnic cultures. To enjoy travel in Cameroon travellers must understand that life in West Africa operates at a much slower pace than we're accustomed to in the West. Cameroonians pay little attention to time and punctuality and feel that one need not be enslaved by a clock. So to get the most out of your travel in Cameroon, take it easy and operate on Cameroon time.
