The train has a restaurant car. Tickets must be booked on the day of travel. Daily trains run from Yaound to Douala, with onward connections to Nkongsamba, although this journey is quicker by bus. There are paved roads from Douala to Yaound , Limb , Bu a, Bafoussam and Bamenda and between main centres. Other roads are generally poorly maintained and become almost impassable during the rainy season.
Traffic drives on the right.
Night driving is not recommended. Car hijackings and violent muggings are increasingly common, particularly in Douala, Yaound and Kribi, so sensible precautions should be taken. Bus services also exist between other main centres and more rural areas, but tend to be unreliable and are often suspended during the rainy season. An International Driving Permit is not a legal requirement but recommended.
