1. Can we bring our own tent and camp?

Africa’s Eden provides accommodation of high standards at all the sights you will visit. Due to security reasons, it is not allowed to camp on your own.

2. Do I need to take towels, sheets etc?

In every accommodation towels and sheets are provided, so there’s no need to take them on your trip. However, when staying in less expensive hotels in Libreville and Port Gentil like the Tropicana Hotel, note that only one towel is provided per room.

3. Do I need to take any mosquito nets?

The bungalows and tents in Loango Lodge and the satellite camps can be closed to prevent mosquitoes. The windows/openings are provided with mosquito screens and every bungalow is equipped with an anti-mosquito spray. However, the hotels in Libreville and Port Gentil do not have appropriate mosquitoes preventive measures.
 
If you feel safer with a mosquito net, we recommend you taking a special travel version. Even more important though, is using a good mosquito repellent and keeping your skin covered (especially during the evenings). Also, we strongly advise you to take anti-malaria prophylaxes.

For travellers to São Tomé and Príncipe it is not necessary to bring mosquito nets. Though it is advisable to always bring a mosquito repellent.
