On this excursion from Duala, we'll tour the Pongo-Songo nature reserve by boat, where we'll spend a day with chimpanzees on the banks of the Sanaga river.
Chimpanzee Tour in Cameroon
At 8 am we'll pick you up at your hotel in Douala and travel west until we reach Marienberg. There, we'll board a boat that will take us to Pongo Island, where the Pongo-Songo Reserve is located. We'll get the chance to greet the most famous inhabitants: the chimpanzees!
The boat will sail along the Sanaga River to reach this natural reserve in the west of Cameroon, a place where the Papaye France association protects the chimpanzees of the region. During our visit, we'll learn about the conservation work carried out by this organization in Pongo-Songo. The chimpanzees are one of the most endangered animals in the region.
We'll also visit the reserve's infirmary, where we'll see how the chimpanzees are cared for and even see baby chimpanzees! After learning all about this species at Pongo-Songo, we'll refresh and recharge with a delicious picnic lunch.
Once we've eaten, we'll return to the boat that will take us back to the departure dock. We'll conclude the excursion to the Pongo-Songo Reserve at 5 pm back at your hotel.
