Cameroon is often called a ‘miniature Africa’, simply because, simply because of its geographical, climatic and cultural diversity. This country is home to more than 200 ethnic groups, with English and French as the main languages spoken here. In the 19th century, Cameroon became a German colony but was divided between France and England after the First World War. However in 1961 the country gained its independence from colonial forces, and in 1984, was named the Republic of Cameroon. The political and social stability enjoyed by people in this country, has allowed industries and other developments to take place.

3. Cameroon, nestled in the lowlands of the Gulf of Guinea, extends from Lake
Chad to the dense forests of the Congo Basin. Country of the central African
Region, crossed by the equator, Cameroon has a sub-Sahelian climate in the
North and tropical in the south, hence its wealth of landscapes, cultural diversity
and history so special.
Bamiléké chiefdoms and undulating or hilly landscapes and fresh climate of the west, volcanic
beaches or of golden sands to the south, savannah and wildlife parks in the North, Cameroon is a
destination that meets the desires of all travelers: discovery, trekking, wildlife safaris, relaxation...
In the north, the mount
Siki, resembling stalagmites
fascinate the traveler with
their lunar landscapes. Like
the shell spaces and cave
houses ... the North also
provides adventures and
discovery of the numerous
animal species that live in
the Waza Park.
The south with its wild or
natural beaches of Kribi,
those of brown sands of
Limbe, waterfalls emptying
into the sea, calls for
relaxation, while savoring
local dishes: roasted fish,
grayfish, plantain grills and
lobsters.

4. THE WILD NORTHERN REGIONS
With its natural parks dominated by master lions, elephants, hippopotamus, gazelles,
giraffes and thousands of birds (hornbills, ostriches, sacred ibis, etc..), the northern
provinces of Cameroon are also famous for livestock markets and their traditional skills
in leather work.
Maroua, a town perched on the Mandara Mountains, is known for the work of its
blacksmiths and of one of the best bili-bili (local beer) in the country! Stop at the
village Kapsiki, suspended between the sky and rock, and go see your future at the
famous Crab Sorcerer or at the famous Crab wizard, then share and discover the
cultural riches of this region and visit the palace of the traditional Muslim sultans.
Attend traditional festivals and fascinating dances, like the Gourna or Mandy. Finally,
relax at the camp of boukarous overlooking the Lake Chad and its fascinating
landscapes.

5. WEST AND THE SOUTH
The coast of Cameroon is itself an astonishing: paradise shores between sea shores
and coconut trees in Kribi and black sand beaches dominated by the Mount Cameroon
in Limbe! Along the coast, enjoy a wonderful fashion Kribienne shrimps with fried
plantain, and then you can watch in XX gorillas in their natural habitat. The south is full
of attractions for travelers: coffee plantations and banana trees, botanical garden and
colonial vestiges (remnants).
The Bamiléké region, in the West is striking with cool climate and hilly physiognomy.
At the heart of the mountains covered with eucalyptus and raffia, so nested among the
most beautiful chiefdoms of the country like the majestic Bandjoun square.
Other treasures housed in these forests: natural falls, in which the most spectacular
served as backdrop for the film Greastok.
