I am a Tourism entrepreneur and excellent full time tour guide, licensed by the Cameroon Ministry of Tourism & Leisure, with plus 10 years' experience in the field of tourism and hospitality. I am the vice national president of the Cameroon Association of Tourist Guides, a fellow of the World Federation of Tourist Guides Associations (WFTGA), an organ of the World Tourism Organisation (UNWTO). I hold a Bachelor's Degree in Geography (2007), a Professional Degree in Tourism & Hospitality (2009) and a Master's I Degree in Ecotourism Management (2010), all obtained from the University of Yaounde I. I conceive and conduct tours in both the English and French languages of various themes such as: hunting expeditions, wildlife safaris, photographic shootings, nature and beach adventures, cultural and sporting expeditions in Cameroon and the CEMAC countries. I have a lot of passion in adventure tourism, traditional, cultural and beach tourism. I like meeting new people. Most often, they come as clients and go back as friends and come again by the confidence and satisfaction they derive from the service quality we render. I am always available to render my services to my guests but for security reasons would not travel from one destination to another in the night except for 'City tours by night'. I look forward to welcoming you to Cameroon, "Africa in miniature" and making you achieve your goal and feel as a local in the shortest possible time.

Overview of your Yaounde tour

As a licensed guide with 18 years' experience in conducting national and multi-country tours, I shall be guiding you to the discovery of the Bouba-Djidda (Cameroon) and Dzanga Sangha (CAR) NPs where you shall enjoy wildlife safari of Lions, elephants, giraffes, leopards, Derby's eland, buffaloes, Bongo, Sitatunga, Buffalo, Apes, Giant forest Hog and warthogs. In the Cameroon part, I shall take you to visit the Koma people who inhabit the Atlantika Mts of northern Cameroon and Nigeria. There are animists and lived in complete isolation from the rest of the world. They still dress very primitively like the early men. Women wear leaves of trees and men wear animal skins to cover their vital sex organs. You shall sleep in tents in the open air in the hilly villages. In the CAR part, we shall interact with the Ba'Aka Pygmies, go for animal safari at the Dzanga Bai, go for Gorilla Tracking at the Hokou Bai, observe Makoma, the polygamous silverback and learn how he governs his family on daily basis.
