What to Buy for your Holiday to Cameroon?

Now that you are almost ready for your holiday, you may be wondering what to buy for your holiday to Cameroon?

The most important items you will need are very basics – good, easy to carry luggage is one of the most important things you will need. Many air carriers only accept soft top luggage, and you will need to carry your belongs around with you, so avoid huge suitcases. A large backpack which is big enough to fit your basic items in, but small enough to cart around fairly easily is essential.

Malaria medication is crucial, and vitamins are also recommended to ensure that you stay healthy on your travels. A basic first aid kit is also a good idea, which should include bandages, headache tablets and anti-nausea pills.

Cameroon is mostly French-speaking, so purchasing a good French phrasebook will help you get around the country fairly easily. A guidebook is also a good idea to have on hand during your travels.
