With rainforests, deserts, wildlife parks and beaches, the West African country of Cameroon has much to offer intrepid tourists; adventurous travellers book flights to Cameroon to see some of the best that Nature has to offer in Africa. The country is still not a major tourist destination, though the industry is growing fast, so travellers can get a glimpse of the “real Africa”, both in its large towns and in the more deserted countryside.
Geographically, the country packs much interest into a small space. The northern parts are largely savannah, the western parts contain large mountain peaks, while the east stretches out towards the Congo Basin. The coastal region has some stunning beaches, with golden sand, palm trees and almost guaranteed sunshine. But to merely laze on a beach would be to miss much in this stunning country. The wildlife parks offer a chance to spot many of Africa’s big game: elephants, lions and giraffe abound. Its towns have a French colonial style. Douala, the arrival point for all Cameroon flights, especially, is vibrant and active.
How long is the flight to Cameroon from the UK?

However, there are many factors that will affect your flight time, including the number of stops, the airport from which you depart, and more. The main international airport in Cameroon is Douala International Airport, which is located in Douala, Cameroon’s capital and largest city. Some airlines also fly into Yaoundé, which is smaller than Douala and located in central Cameroon.
Which cities offer direct flights to Cameroon from the UK?
Unfortunately, there are currently no direct flights to Cameroon from the UK. However, there are numerous cities that offer flights from the UK to Cameroon with one or two stopovers. Edinburgh, Manchester, Birmingham, and Glasgow are just some of the cities. You will also find three of the London airports offering flights to the African nation, including London City Airport, London Gatwick Airport, and London Heathrow Airport. You will also be able to choose from a wide range of airlines, including Turkish Airlines, Brussels Airlines, Swiss Air, Air France, KLM, and others. A flight to Douala from Birmingham aboard Air France with a single stopover will take 9h 45m. A similar flight with Brussels Airlines will take 10h 10m. A flight with two stop overs may take as long as 13h, and if you choose a flight with three stopovers, it may take 27h 30m.
What is the best way to get around Cameroon?
You’ll find several ways to get around in Cameroon during your stay. Internal flights are offered by Camair-Co, which is the country’s only airline, and will get you from Douala and Yaoundé to Maroua or Garouna. You may also be able to rent a boat in some areas, but most are just motorized canoes. You can also take a bus within any of the main cities to other urban centers. Most buses are privately operated. However, if you want more control over your visit, you may decide to rent a car – rental agencies including Avis are available in most major cities. There is also a national train service that runs from Yaoundé to N’Gaounderé, from Yaoundé to Douala, and from Douala to Kumba if you prefer.
