Getting There:
Savannah:
To hunt in the Savannah clients will fly in to Douala where you will be met by a company representative who will assist with clearing of your rifles and take you to a hotel to spend the night. The next morning you will be collected from the hotel to take a local flight on Cam Air Co to Ngaoundere or Garoua in the North, where the outfitter will meet them. From there it is approximately a 4 hour drive to camp.
Forest:
To hunt in the Forest clients will fly in to Yaounde where you will be met by a company representative who will assist with clearing of your rifles and take you to a hotel to spend the night. The next morning you will be picked up from the hotel for the drive to camp which is approximately 9 hours.
Visas and Paperwork:
All hunters travelling to Cameroon with rifles have to obtain their visas and gun permits through a travel agent based in Paris. We can assist with this. Please allow 3 weeks to obtain this before your safari as your passport has to be couriered to France to get the necessary stamps.
To obtain your visa and gun permit the following documentation is mandatory:
Laundry:
Daily laundry is done in camp so three sets of hunting clothing is sufficient. A list of what to bring will be provided.
Hunting Team:
Your hunting team will consist of your English speaking PH, trackers and driver.
Rifle Calibers:
A maximum of two rifles and 50 cartridges per rifle is allowed to be brought into Cameroon. For the savannah hunts a .375 H&H or similar is probably the ideal caliber. If you wish to take two rifles a .30-06 or .300 magnum along with a .416 caliber or heavier, would make a good combination. Rifles are available for hire for hunters who do not wish to take their own. For the forest hunts we do not recommend taking a rifle as the shots are at very close range and furthermore the rain and moisture is tough on firearms.
