At Monjooo, our Cultural & Heritage Tours are crafted to immerse you in the heart of Cameroonian culture, history, and community life. From ancient traditions and royal legacies to the resilience of the people, our tours take you beyond the surface for a meaningful, eye-opening experience.

Walk Through the Past at the Bimbia Slave Trade Site

One of our most powerful and important tours takes you to Bimbia, a former slave trade port nestled along the coast near Limbe. This historic site offers a solemn yet essential look into Cameroon’s role in the transatlantic slave trade. With the guidance of local historians and cultural experts, visitors explore:

  • Slave holding cells and chains

  • Historical paths leading to the sea

  • The “Door of No Return”

  • Stories of survival and community resistance

This emotional and educational tour honors the memory of those who passed through Bimbia and helps travelers better understand the legacy of colonialism in West Africa.

Explore Traditional Villages & Royal Palaces

Our heritage tours also include visits to traditional Cameroonian villages, where travelers can witness everyday rural life, local customs, music, dance, and craftsmanship. Highlights include:

  • Meeting local chiefs and elders

  • Learning about tribal governance and spiritual beliefs

  • Touring royal palaces and cultural sites

  • Participating in traditional ceremonies and festivals (when available)

These experiences provide deep insight into Cameroon’s diverse ethnic groups and their centuries old traditions.
