Sobre esta Trap
There is no direct bus from Douala into Buea town. Buses run to the Mile 17 motor park, where you switch to a township taxi for the climb to Buea Town. Minibuses leave when full, so travel in the morning. Keep your phone out of sight in the motor park, where phone theft is reported, and agree the fare before you move off.
