Route Proposal: Morocco - Cameroon
 

Finally we (me & wife) will start our trip through Africa (in April).
We worked out some details of the planned route from Tangier, Morocco to Yaounde, Cameroon.

I would like to briefly summarize our findings and would highly appreciate any feedback and most of all a sanity check!

The basis for our planning is the valueable help provided by the forum (Special thanks to Scott!):
Route finding: http://www.horizonsunlimited.com/hub...nd-map-84438-2
and: Overlanding: Routes

The route is split in two sections: Tangier - Nouakchott and Nouakchott - Yaounde

First section Morocco, Mauritania:

Second section: Mali, BF, Benin, Nigeria, Cameroon:

Visa considerations:

• Morocco visa @ arrival
• Mauritania @ Rabat
• Mali @ NKT
• Burkina Faso, Nigeria @ Bamako
• Benin @ Ouagadougou
• Cameroon @ Calibar

After Yauonde,... we'll take it from there...

We would really look forward to any hints, POIs, route proposals or comments.

Cheers,

Austrian passport holders don't need a visa for Morocco, see Morocco: Passports and visas - TripAdvisor

But you will need to complete a temporary import form, see Import forms, fiches

Some photos of the route through Morocco, Western Sahara and Mauritania: S10 Carry on Dakar!

Tim, thanks for the hints (espezially to the fiches) and images!

Cheers,

Hi,
I'd reconsider your Nigerian visa in Benin. I know of several overlanders who are currently in Benin and have been denied the visa from the embassy there.

It was however easy to get in Bamako.

All the best
