My wife and I really enjoyed this private tour through 4 countries in West Africa which also included the Ouidah Voodoo Festival in Benin. Our driver/guide organised everything perfectly for us and appointed local guides for the major attractions in each place. We take away with us a true experience of a lifetime together with a deep insight into the past, present and future of this part of the amazing African continent.Show more
