Indonesia

Bali, temples and volcanoes: the great Asian escape.

Capital
Jakarta
Currency
Indonesian Rupiah (IDR) — approx. 1 USD ≈ 16,000 IDR
Flight from Douala
~18 to 24h+ from Douala (1-2 layovers)
Time difference
Bali GMT+8 (+7h); Jakarta GMT+7 (+6h) vs Cameroon

Indonesia is Bali and its rice terraces, the ancient temples of Java (Borobudur, Prambanan), the Komodo dragons and turquoise beaches as far as the eye can see. A total change of scene at gentle prices once you're there. Be warned: unlike most travellers, Cameroonians are NOT eligible for visa on arrival (e-VOA); you must apply for a tourist eVisa online BEFORE departure, with a local guarantor/sponsor. Plan this step well ahead.
