Cameroon - Congo border
I am planning a trip from Niger down to South Africa via Nigeria, Cameroon, Congo/Gabon, DRC, Angola/Zambia Namibia/Botswana and South Africa all on public transport having sold my 'bus' in Mali that wouldn't have made it down that far anyway.
I plan to get Angolan and Cameroon visas in Abuja in Nigeria as apparentley this is the best place....I was wondering if anyone knew whether the Cameroon - Congo border is open and passable allowing me to avoid Gabon and another expensive visa.
Also is the idea of going from Kinshasa to Zambia via Ilebo and Lumbumbashi in DRC ridiculous??
I've read of a few people making it last year but think Angola may be a more realistic option....anyone done either recently.
Any advice welcome...
many thanks
