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.
