Cameroon

Cameroon is a diverse and multi ethnic country . While western tourism is rare. Most of the countries tourist come from Europe predominantly Belgium

Sadly, like most countries in Africa, explicitly take into account the effects due to AIDS. Also, banditry can be an issue, especially while traveling on overnight buses. Although many people take overnight buses for long routes without incident (and they are often much more comfortable than the buses during the day), bandits are known to target and ambush them on parts of roads that are more secluded. This is a growing problem in the Southwest province on the route from Bamenda to Buea. Violence is rare, but just be smart about wearing any jewelry or anything else that would make you stand apart from the rest of the bus.

Yellow Fever certificates are required for travel to Cameroon. Malaria is common, especially in the central and southern parts of the country. The risk is much lower in the mountains of the Northwest Province and the arid areas on the Extreme North. Prophylactics are recommended because of the severity of some strains of malaria in the country. Other tropical diseases are also common, including dysentery, bilharzia, hepatitis, and giardia occur. There are occasional outbreaks of cholera in Yaounde and Douala, but rarely affect travelers. There are several good quality hospitals in the country. Most are located in Douala or Yaounde, but Kumbo has two very good private hospitals as well.
