TRAVEL EXPERIENCE IN CAMEROON

Travelling to Cameroon is like travelling around the entire African Continent. Cameroon's geographical situation, between Lake Chad and the Equatorial Forests, allows the traveller to admire all kinds of flora, fauna, and cultural groups in one sole country. The size of France, Cameroon offers diversity, security, and virginity. Middle-Africa is a travel agency specialised in Cameroon travel and is based in Douala. Since 2004 we have been operating in Cameroon and neighbouring countries. Middle Africa has seen the great potentials of Cameroon as a travel destination for tourists that appreciate countries that receive little tourism and can offer great experiences.

TRAVEL HIGHLIGHTS OF CAMEROON

Cameroon's main travel highlight is, as we have already mentioned, its natural and cultural diversity. Some of the greatest a less explored National Parks in Central Africa can be found in Cameroon.

When you travel to South Cameroon you can visit the following protected areas such as Lobeke National Park, one of Cameroon's best places to observe western lowland gorillas, is a member of the Tri-National Sangha complex, currently in the process to become a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Roundtrips to the other National Parks (Dzanga-Ndoki in C.A.R. and Nouabalé-Ndoki in Congo) can be organized with ease. Boumba Bek & Nki National Parks represent one of Cameroon's less explored jungle areas. Its mountainous terrain has preserved this natural paradise from logging and forest elephants, buffaloes, bongos, and western lowland gorillas can be spotted all along the Boumba and Nki Rivers. Korup National Park is Cameroon's oldest park and one of the world's oldest tropical forests. Korup ancient forests host Africa's last drill populations, Goliath frogs, and many endemic reptile and bird species. Dja Wildlife Reserve is Cameroon's sole UNESCO site and the best spot to meet the Baka pygmy tribe, great jungle trails, and the enigmatic volcanic rocks in the middle of the Dja Reserve from where you have amazing jungle panoramic views. North Cameroon also offers great nature travel experiences. In the Sahel area of Cameroon Middle-Africa offers safaris to Waza National Park, famous for its giraffes, lions, and elephant herds, also to Rey Bouba National Park, in the Chad border, where the last Cameroonian black rhinos are thought to survive. North Cameroon offers great travel experiences aside from its parks. Rhumsiki is Cameroon's most beautiful and iconic panoramic view, and probably one of Africa's greatest natural landscapes. We also find the tiny Mafa tribe stone and mud villages on the way to Rhumsiki, the colourful markets of Pouss, Tourou, Maroua, Mindif, and Poli, and welcoming hospitality of the Cameroonian people. Travelling to Cameroon also means encountering some of Africa's most traditional cultural groups. In South-Eastern Cameroon you will find the Baka pygmies, one of the last hunter and gatherer ethnic groups in the World. Middle-Africa organises trips to Eastern Cameroon to meet the Baka pygmies and get to know them in their forest habitat. In Northern Cameroon we organise travel experiences to the remote Alantika Mountains and Faro plain to visit the Koma Animistic tribe and the Mbororo nomads, known for their beauty and tattooed faces. To round up your travel experience in Cameroon, you can end the last days in Limbe's volcanic beaches, near active volcano Mount Cameroon (4.080mts.-great trekkings) or in the beautiful white-sand beaches of Kribi. Kribi, an ancient German colonial town, offers the traveller in Cameroon a great opportunity to enjoy the famous Cameroonian shrimps, also known as camarones, from where the word Cameroon derives from.
