The Douala –Kribi road is a very wide rainforest landscape, picturesque and very beautiful, with interesting and rustic architectural design of the habitations providing a picture of the people daily life. Among the discoveries along the way, the German bridge dating from the German colonial era in Cameroon, gives a panoramic view to the hydroelectric dam and the aluminum company.

Experience the thrill of gorilla trekking in Cameroon’s Campo Ma’an National Park. With the habituation of a sizable group of gorillas on the Dipikar Islands, visitors can now have the opportunity to observe these majestic primates up close. In addition to gorillas, the park is home to a diverse array of wildlife including red river hogs, chimpanzees, elephants, pangolins, and antelopes. Don’t miss this once-in-a-lifetime chance to explore one of Africa’s most biodiverse regions.
Campo Ma’an
This day we have a second Gorilla trek In the Island. Just like done the eve, we go after Gorilla traces through a forest walk until we get close to the Gorilla family. On the way, there are great chances to spot other species like monkeys, chimps, antelopes, birds and much more. We expect to trek back to the Lodge in the afternoon for diner and night.
Campo Ma’an – Kribi Ilomba Hotel
We depart from Campo early in the morning and head back to Kribi on a dirt/muddy road. One of our stops along the way is the fisherman village of Ebodje, where highlights include visiting the turtle nesting site (available from November to March), the turtle museum, the beautiful beaches and even the Wolf Rock site. As we get closer to Kribi (20 km), another interesting stop is the recently established seaport. By late afternoon, we reach Kribi and spend the rest of the evening unwinding on the hotel’s private beach.
Kribi Ilomba Hotel
Following breakfast, we drive to the Lobe River harbor and board a canoe for a serene and tranquil journey on the water. The canoe ride on the Lobe River is a delightful experience for bird enthusiasts as there are opportunities to spot a variety of bird species in the surrounding forest on both sides of the river.
