Whichever area you hunt you can expect excellent game populations, comfortable accommodation in traditional African style and food and beverages of a high level. Cameroun has the same appeal for adventurous big game hunters, as King Solomon's mines have for treasure seekers.... Are you ready for the adventure of a lifetime?
Our partner has control of five different hunting concessions on the savannah in the northern part of Cameroon, Between the two national parks, Bouba Ndjida and La Benoue, approx. 4 hours drive from Garoua. You fly to Douala, and then with a domestic flight to Garoua. Once a week there is also a direct flight to Garoua from Paris.
The best hunting in the savannah is in the period from January to, and including, April. We recommend that you hunt in Cameroon during the spring, after the old, high grasses have been burnt off and the new shoots are appearing. As in many other places in the world, this season gives the best opportunities to see the game, which - naturally enough - is very mobile. At this time of year the temperature is around 35º C during the day and 22º C during the night. As the climate is dry, these temperatures are not uncomfortable.
The five hunting concessions, Mayo Oldiri, Mayo Nduell, Mayo Vaimba, Rey Bouba and Djibao cover an area of 420.000 hectares. Compared to the size of the areas the hunting pressure is very small and therefore the trophy quality is of excellent standard. Choice of hunting area depends on your priorities on species. On a 2 week safari you will often hunt in two different areas.
Although there are quite a few small roads in the hunting areas, you must also be prepared to cover fairly long distances on foot. Therefore it is also an advantage to be in a relatively good physical form. The success rate for eland has during the last year been 100% and the same applies for buffalo and roan.
All camps are built in the style of traditional West African safari camps, with thatched huts, either round or rectangular - depending on the local building style, all with private bathroom and toilet, together with huts used as common sitting and dining areas. the outfitters have striven to build the plants in attractive locations, either by a river, or on a good view point, so you can always...

(*) Anti-poaching and community-development program: in order to support an effective year-round anti-poaching campaign, as well as for advocating the value of wildlife to the villagers adjacent to and within our hunting blocks, a fee of 10% of the above trophy fees will be collected to fund these programs under our direct supervision. We have implemented these programs in all our hunting areas and have found that the results of direct funding for these necessary actions have been extremely beneficial in the overall quality of the hunting experience offered to our clients. These fees are paid at the conclusion of the safari, based on the final trophy fee amounts.
Note: Government fees might be modified (increased) without prior notice. The outfitter cannot be held responsible for any such modification.
