Cameroon: Yaoundé, Ébolowa and Douala + 2 more

A road trip through Yaoundé, Ébolowa and Douala + 2 more, 5 stops in Cameroon.

Yaoundé, Cameroon's capital, is a sprawling city of over a million people built across undulating terrain in the Centre region. Ébolowa is a city of over 100,000 people in Cameroon, serving as a regional hub in the south-central part of the country. Douala is Cameroon's largest city and the economic heart of the country, sprawling across the Wouri estuary in the Littoral region. Buea is a city of around 140,500 residents in the Southwest region of Cameroon, positioned as a significant cultural and administrative hub.

Why it works

Rather than one city, this threads Yaoundé, Ébolowa and Douala and more into a single trip, so you see more of Cameroon in one go. Spend longest wherever suits you.
