What is the best time of year to visit Cameroon in your experience? Are all dates guaranteed departure? If not, what happens if you don't have enough travelers to run the tour? I see it says it's 'semi-guided.' How much time are travelers on their own without a guide? Is the guide guaranteed to be English Speaking?

The best times to visit Cameroon is from November to early March. Departure is guaranteed for minimum 2 travelers. The guide is guaranteed to speak English. Only on day 1, the day of arrival and day 7, the day of departure, travelers may be on their own without a guide. On those days they may be with the driver only.

What dates is the trip offered? Is a single supplement available?

The itinerary is good but just know we have to take off Bafut and Ndop plain for security reasons. We can replace them with Buea and Limbe so I will revise it and send it back to you. So far, we have no one has registered yet and will be happy you start. The trip is all round. So you just need to select what period is convenient for you.

My wife and I really enjoyed this private tour through 4 countries in West Africa which also included the Ouidah Voodoo Festival in Benin. Our driver/guide organised everything perfectly for us and appointed local guides for the major attractions in each place. We take away with us a true experience of a lifetime together with a deep insight into the past, present and future of this part of the amazing African continent.Show more

  Is there a minimum number of people needed for the tour to make? Are all nights at hotels?
- Continent ToursOperator•Written March 2023
  The minimum would be from 2 people with single supplement if you are not sharing the room. As a solo traveler would pay USD 4,706 so the cost would be more expensive as you are to take care all the charges. Yes, all the 06 nights are at hotels.
