    I'm in Mobile AL, and a few years back I met a lady from Gabon at the bus station. Gabon has been on my radar ever since. Concerning Africa, I visited Egypt and Morocco. Your video has pushed Libreville higher on my travel list. Excellent video, Thanks!!!

    I was a US Peace Corps Volunteer in Gabon 1990-92. Wonderful country. Next time you must go into the interior where the landscape is incredible and people also friendly. The country is 80% tropical rain forest and has many protected national parks. It takes more time and $$, but gives a more in depth view of the country.
    They like Americans better than the French too!

      Maybe. The rain forest sound a bit intimidating. But I might give it a try. Thanks.

    Gabon is definitely on my list for next year. I’ve traveled to a number of African countries, you’re right you don’t hear too much about this Country it looks interesting. Purpose for my visit to find out if there’s a memorial for the late Singer Oliver N Goma I like his music even though I don’t understand anything.

      Before my trip everything I read stated I could get a VISA on arrival, but when I got to the Airport the agents said I did not need one. So no, I didn't need a VISA to enter. But make sure you do solid research before your trip because things change.

      ​@@taonafiederer-sheppard1641 They might require the Yellow Fever vaccine if coming from a country with high risk of Yellow Fever. I always take might and give it to them just in case....but I don't remember if it was actually required. Check the end of the video. Did I mention it there?

      I saw the end of this video, Just need to know how tough they are one vax requirements.
      I reached out to the Gabonese international airport and they responded that I need Yellow fever, Tifauid fever, Meningitis, Tetanus & Hepatitis B...
      I never done international travel, and no-one around here knows nothin'.
      They askin for a ICVP card with all these vaxxs written on it? or is it individual paperwork for each one?

      Prior to my visit, everything I read online said I needed a VISA and could get it on arrival at the airport in Gabon. However, when I arrived in Gabon, the customs agent said it is not required. Very confusing. Good luck.

      Yes, you do need a visa to enter in Gabon 🇬🇦 as Gabonese people need a visa to go to the United States. It's the law.
