    Asked on June 3rd, 2025

    If I book the Ghana, Togo & Benin first, do I get a discount for the second tour?

    Payments
    • Penguin TravelOperator•Written June 2025

      Unfortunately, we do not offer discount for repeat customers through the TourRadar platform.

      If I book direct, do you offer second tour discount? If so, how much would that be for the Ivory Coast Tour?

      I was going to book the Ghana tour direct on your website. I got error messages every time I submit the booking form. Then I emailed on several occasions since 29 May. I got a reply saying the company is operating on limited staff and I will be contacted ASAP. So far no one contacted me. That is why I decided to book on TourRadar. They have a 24 hour customer service & you don't. Please let me know how to book direct when I get the error message for the submitted booking form?

    Asked on April 15th, 2025

    I'm interested in your tour to the Ivory Coast. When checking the visa requirements for my home country Germany I see a document called 'ATTESTATION D'HEBERGEMENT' which apparently has to be filled out by a city hall representative. Is that correct and will you take care of this document?

    Visa
    • Penguin TravelOperator•Written April 2025

      You are eligible to get e-visa for Ivory Coast. Once your booking is confirmed, we provide the required documents. For the online application, you usually need to upload only a passport, flight ticket and letter of invitation or proof of accommodation. In our experience, we have not had issues with e-visa approval before.

      Traveler•Written April 2025

      Just for my understanding the letter of invitation or proof of accomodation would be provided by your company?

    • Penguin TravelOperator•Written April 2025

      Yes
